Tomorrow’s the big day. But we don’t have to wait. We already know who’ll win – well, almost. Here’s where we’re putting our money!

Best Picture

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button 
The Dark Knight
Frost/Nixon
Milk 
Slumdog Millionaire


Frost/Nixon, Button and Slumdog are guaranteed, which leaves two spots open. We pick the biopic Milk, which will most likely make the cut for its overall appeal. And if the Academy members were smart, they'd go with Dark Knight as well, to gain more eyeballs to the Oscars telecast (last year’s was its lowest ratings ever).

Also for your consideration: It’s awfully gritty and violent, but The Wrestler, powered by Best Actor shoo-in Mickey Rourke, could have a shot. So could the terribly morose Revolutionary Road, although it’s had mixed reactions from critics.
