Best Song should be 0% as there is no original song in the movie.

And I would have Visual Effects higher. TDK got nominated for that and has far less VFX than Inception.

I think itll definitely be up for Best movie...with the category expanded they have to give atleast 1 action movie a slot and this will be it.

Leo has a chance at a best actor oscar, but no supporting nominations

Nolan will either be nominated for best screenplay or best director....Wally for cinematography

probably, this movie will get no attention from the academy. it's a big budget blockbuster movie. that's a big disadvantage. it needs to be almost "perfect" to get some nominations..

Well, Avatar was a big budget blockbuster that was nowhere near "perfect" and that still managed to bag a bunch of nominations. Just saying.
