Predicted Oscar Winners - 2007

The Numbers' annual Oscar polls have proved to be remarkably accurate predictors of the final results on Oscar night. We call results based on the hundreds of Numbers readers who vote in our Predict the Oscars competition.

We've received all the votes now, and are ready to make predictions in all categories. Percentage figures are the percentage of Numbers readers who believe a movie or performance will win in a particular category. They are a rough guide to how likely a particular movie is to win in a category - for example, we're pretty certain Helen Mirren will win the Best Actress award, while The Departed is the narrowest of favorites for Best Picture.

Overall, as expected, this year's predictions suggest that the awards will be spread far and wide among the nominees. Dreamgirls is predicted to win the most awards, but with a very modest total of four, including Best Song and Sound Mixing, as well as supporting actor awards for Eddie Murphy and Jennifer Hudson. The Departed is tipped to win in three major categories: Best Picture, Directing and Adapted Screenplay. If it does so, it will most likely be hailed as the champion on the night.

In total, thirteen different feature-length movies are predicted to win at least one Oscar, which would make this one of the most varied Oscar nights in history. However, with many of the predicted wins coming from movies with only 30-40% of our votes, we can expect a lot of surprises on the night.
