Oscar Picks: Clooney, LAT Buzzmeter, Gurus o' Gold

Here are the final Oscar picks from the august selecters at the LAT Buzzmeter and MCN's Gurus o' Gold. I think the latter's more elite collective picks are closer to the mark than Buzzmeter's, for what it's worth.

Swearing that he has never lost an Oscar pool, George Clooney makes his predictions in Time. He's astute, but I don't think supporting actress is Amy Ryan--it's either Tilda Swinton or Cate Blanchett-- and I sticking to may have to drop my cockamamie Ronald Harwood theory in adapted screenplay.
