I'll go ahead and predict Hurt Locker for picture and agree with the rest. After watching HL again (great direction, sound, editing, acting, music), I don't think it has a shot at screenplay compared to QT's one-of-a-kind invention.

In the Loop has the best dialogue of the bunch, but the screenplay for UITA is pretty great. But then we'll live in a world where PTA has zero Oscars and Jason Reitman and Diablo Cody each have one.
