Of the nominated films I've seen from that list, go "Tian Xia Wu Zei"!

I would be glad if Rene Liu and Andy Lau won for that. But I have a gut feeling awards will go to 2046 and/or House of Flying Daggers.

It would kick butt if Yuen Wah and Yuen Qiu wins for supporting cast, but my bet is that they would be beaten by Tony Leung Ka Fai and Bai Ling for "Three."

I personally loved One Night in Mongkok, hope they win for best film (well that or Kun Fu Hustle ).

Kung Fu Hustle will dominate mostly, since 2046 and House of Flying Daggers aren't exactly that well-received in HK. (seriously, people in this forum love Wong Kar Wai more than most HK people )

Who selects the winners?

The public or a select group of people?
