Im really behind on nominated movies this year - the only ones Ive seen in major categories are The Departed, Pan's Labyrinth and Pursuit of Happyness (Plus Superman Returns and Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest in some of the "lesser" categories)
Even though I havent seen any of the other nominees, I hesitate to say Scorcese will win Best Director. It was a damn good movie, but I really didnt notice anything special about the directing. I mean it was good, but nothing really struck me as Oscar worthy about it. But as Ive said, I havent seen the other nominees so maybe it shines by comparison.
