Notes: These are prognostications by top awards watchers, not personal preferences.
xxxxxxA few other invitations have been extended and we hope to add those experts to the group this week.
xxxxxxThe Los Angeles Times' Tom O'Neil passed on joining the group.
xxxxxxThe only awards films seen by none of The Gurus as of this date are King Kong, Munich, and The New World.
xxxxxxTotals are based on reverse point values, i.e. a #1 vote is worth 10 points, a #5 vote is worth 6 points, #10 worth 1.
