Note
This is an update of Sijmen's Oscar Experiment with the Dallas-Forth Worth Film Critics Winners and the nominations from the Chicago Film Critics and the Screen Actors Guild.

As you'll see, the acting races are over. Best Actress is the only category where something surprising could happen. From now on, the changes will be smaller, and the focus will be on the best picture and best director category, where nothing is for sure yet!

But it's interesting to see that Avatar is not in the Best Picture top 10 anymore. (it's currently at number 14). Not a tragedy yet, but it's not good either...

It will definitly be intersting to see how the formula plays out this year in this category...i have a feeling if it stays at 10 nominees the formula might need some tweaking here in this category.

I'm afraid you're right, RC! I hope the Formula will predict 8 best picture nominees, I could live with that. We'll see... And thanks for your comment. My first ever!
