Because there's a lot of money to be made if it's anyone else. Josh Brolin has the best shot at pulling off the upset Bullshit. Philip Seymour Hoffman is going to take it. No, he's not. Hoffman has already won before, and is considered a longshot at best. If Ledger doesn't win, the odds on favourite is Brolin, who has been tons of praise for his performance. I still think Ledger will pull it off, since it will look so bad if he doesn't, but it wouldn't shock me to see Brolin win. It would also be a way of rewarding him for his quality of work the past few years, particularly his performance in W. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
