jerking off with Oscar

film jerk posted an interesting, somewhat comprehensive look at possible oscar winners based on historical percentages. the article points out some fascinating statistics, namely: 1) best picture films that do not predominately take place in the present win almost 75% of the time (so much for message-movies), 2) keira knightley is the statistical favourite to win best actress at 68.4%, 3) paul giamatti, the likely best supporting actor winner, is only a 63% favourite, 4) first-time nominees have won 84% of best supporting actress statues. of course, while FFT admires the effort of said web site, all this oscar calculation shit is bunk. i'm only posting this to have an excuse to put up a knightley shot. f.i.n.e.
