Lala Love

Pretty bizarre best film choice for the LA critics: Wall-E? I wouldn't even name it best cartoon.

The rest of the choices are more conventional, with a big lean toward Happy-Go-Lucky:

Picture: Wall-E
Runner-up: The Dark Knight (Really?)

Director: Danny Boyle, Slumdog Millionaire
Runner-up: Christopher Nolan, The Dark Knight

Actor: Sean Penn, Milk
Runner-up: Mickey Rourke, The Wrestler (what kind of speech would he give?)

Actress: Sally Hawkins, Happy-Go-Lucky
Runner-up: Melissa Leo, Frozen River

Supporting actor: Heath Ledger, The Dark Knight
Runner-up: Eddie Marsan, Happy-Go-Lucky (just to see him nominated would be cool)

Supporting actress: Penelope Cruz, Vicky Cristina Barcelona and Elegy
Runner-up: Viola Davis, Doubt

Screenplay: Mike Leigh, Happy-Go-Lucky
Runner-up: Charlie Kaufman, Synecdoche, New York (a film that got very little love)

Documentary: Man on Wire (yeah)
Runner-up: Waltz With Bashir

Wall-E and Dark Knight were far and away my two favorite movies of the year. But then I'm a sucker for Chaplin and really well-played bad guys.
