Stars sparkle at the 85th Academy Awards

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Are you excited about this year's Academy Awards? We are at ABC11. Who will win Best Picture? Who's going to have the most talked about dress on the Red Carpet?

The speculation has already begun that Ben Affleck will walk away with the Best Picture gold statue for "Argo," but there are eight other nominees that might have something to say about that.

While Affleck is not nominated for direction or acting, Daniel Day-Lewis and Denzel Washington are the hot favorites for best actor, while Jennifer Lawrence and young Quvenzhane Wallis are being talked about for best actress.

The thing about predictions is they're often wrong. We want to know your picks.
