So with just two weeks to go until Oscars, I decided to revisit my picks.  I'm still happy that I chose to use my split pick for Picture.  It is looking by all markers that "The Hurt Locker" will have the edge, but I won't count out Hollywood's predilection to sell out and vote for the bigger, crappier movie.  Half the town was employed for "Avatar" and it was James Cameron's decade-long quest, realized.  The academy loves that stuff. 

I'm feeling more secure about my pick of director, though...
