Best Picture - 12 Years a Slave
Best Actor - Christian Bale
Best Actress - Cate Blanchett
Best Supporting Actor - Jared Leto
Best Supporting Actress - Lupita Nyong'o
American Hustle is definitely getting one of those awards, but I see 12 Years a Slave being the big winner in the main categories. Lupita is gonna win supporting actress.
It's rare a movie wins 3/5 big ones, so if 12YaS has BP & BSA on lock, I think an actor from another movie will get BA.

C'mon, Bale - out of all of the contenders from AH? His nomination is clearly political. He ain't winning in that lineup. If anyone pulls an upset, it's either Dern or Ejiofor. Bale ranks dead last.
I was just looking through Oscar winners the past like 15 years out of curiosity and a single movie almost never got 3/5 of the main categories. It happened in 2005 with Million Dollar Baby though: HS won Actress, Morgan Freeman won Supporting Actor & it won Best Picture.

With its incredible starpower and awards buzz, American Hustle led all the newly minted Best Picture Oscar nominees with an estimated $10.6M for a hearty 28% jump despite losing 425 theaters. Over the past seven days, the Sony release won the Golden Globe for Best Picture - Musical or Comedy, the Best Acting Ensemble prize at the Critics Choice Awards, and the top SAG honor for best cast. Add in the great reviews and ample star wattage and Hustle has the most mainstream commercial appeal among the top Academy Award nominees at this moment. Cume to date is $116.4M and $150M+ is possible.
Still don't get how Halle won an Oscar for Monster's Ball. Her acting seemed very parody-like to me but then again, I've always seen through her talentlessness.
