Jennifer Hudson - Dreamgirls
Rinko Kikuchi - Babel
directing:
Babel
The Departed

United 93
i go with Alejandro González Iñárritu on this, however scorsese has a chance since he hasnt won an oscar before, but i dont think departed is oscar material.
best picture:
Babel
The Departed
Letters From Iwo Jima
Little Miss Sunshine
The Queen
again i pick babel. eastwood is not gonna win with iwo jima, he has to be satisfied with the oscars he allready got from unforgiven and million dollar baby.
maybe the queen has a slight chance here.
