Who Will Win Best Director? Money Is On Spielberg

Who will win Best Director? 

Best Director -

Favorite: Steven Spielberg at 1/3

Next Best: Ang Lee at 5/2

This one is too close to call, and could be a major predictor for Best Picture. If Spielberg takes it home, his odds to win the ultimate prize skyrocket.

 

Best Picture -

Favorite: Argo at 1/5

Next Best: Lincoln at 11/2

Argo is a Lock for Best Picture, but could also be the upset of the evening if Lincoln manages to steal it. The rest of the nominees are huge underdogs, so it comes down to whether or not the Academy is willing to give another Oscar to Ben Affleck.
