And the Winner is.....

Isn't it a little early to be declaring winners in the Oscar Race?

The answer, if you don't already know, is "yes, it is too early", but that doesn't stop websites from posting such nonsense. Everyone's favorite site, Chud.com posted this little kernel of wisdom after viewing the trailer for THERE WILL BE BLOOD.

"And the Oscar race is over again, only now There Will Be Blood is the prohibitive favorite. If I were Focus Features, I'd bump Atonement to '08, 'cuz they just got rat-fucked; even the mighty perspicacity of Variety's Derek Elley won't be enough to derail Anderson's Sherman-esque March to the Kodak. Charlie Wilson's War, Elizabeth: The Golden Age, No Country for Old Men... they shall be set ablaze by the brilliance of There Will Be Blood." - Jeremy Thompson CHUD.COM

So basically, they're picking the best picture winner.

In September.

Based on a trailer.

Genius. For those who want real genius, take a look at the trailer.
