It's Time For The Oscar Awards

Well the 2006 Academy Award nominations were announced and I really don’t think there were any big surprises. Looking through the nominations this year reminds you of the nominations for the other big awards show the Golden Globes.

Most people are saying that Brokeback Mountain will do well at this year’s awards with movies like Walk the Line, Good Night, and Good Luck and Capote getting some award attention in their direction.

I’m really looking forward to seeing Daily Show host Jon Stewart hosting the show. I think that his style of comedy may not be what a lot of the Oscar’s faithful viewers are use to.

As you can tell by reading my blog, I am a fan of award shows and I am a fan of poker. I am trying to get some of my friends to make some friendly wagers with me on the Oscars. I’m picking Brokeback Mountain to win best picture and I’m thinking that Walk the Line will win a couple of acting trophies.

Anyways feel free to write your picks for Oscar winners in the Movie Star Poker guest book and we’ll see if your right!
