Duh! Of course. Easily the biggest sure thing of the awards season.

A minor surprise. The Best Supporting Actress Oscar race is still wide open. Expect an upset there as well.

Best Song: "If I Rise" from 127 Hours, performed Dido and A.R. Rahman

Best Foreign Language Film:
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Best Score: The Social Network

Best Animated Feature: Toy Story 3

Reaction: No surprise here. Without TS3, How to Train Your Dragon would be the favorite this year.

Best Comedy: Easy A

Reaction: Weak category. Personally, I would have picked Get Him to the Greek.

Best Picture Made for Television: The Pacific

Best Documentary: Waiting for 'Superman'

Reaction: Definitely a huge upset, but Inside Job is still the favorite for the Oscar.

Best Action Movie: Inception

Reaction: No surprise here. The Town was probably the runner-up.

Best Supporting Actor: Christian Bale (The Fighter)

Reaction: Nice! Hopefully he takes the Oscar as well. Totally nailed the acceptance speech.

Best Young Actor:
Hailee Steinfeld (True Grit)

Reaction: Nice pick. She more than holds here own with Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon chewing scenes. I thought this was going to go to Jennifer Lawrence for Winter's Bone.

Best Acting Ensemble: The Fighter (Mark Wahlberg, Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Melissa Leo)
