Awards season is upon us. Crushingly so. You can barely get through a commercial block without "nominated for..." bursting your eardrums. Access Hollywood, Extra, and all the rest are a-twitter with last minute posturing. Celebs are getting facials, massages, and gifts galore. And we want in.

We'll be covering the event all Sunday with fashion disasters, award victors, and other juicy tidbits.

Until then, we've channeled our inner Roger Ebert - picking our favorites and adding a dash of WWTHFPD. Now it's your turn. Who do you think should win? Jump into the prognostication game. Vote in our polls for your picks or post a comment below. Here are our picks for the winners of a few key categories.

Best Motion Picture - Drama
The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button: too obvious
Frost/Nixon: too heady
The Reader: too dramatic
* Revolutionary Road: just right
Slumdog Millionaire: too scrappy
