The first bake-off of the season is here, narrowing the Oscar contenders for Best Makeup down to seven. The finalists are:
“The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” “The Dark Knight” “Hellboy II: The Golden Army” “The Reader” “Synecdoche, New York” “Tropic Thunder” “The Wrestler”
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" "The Dark Knight" "The Reader"- even though it's not very good work and "Hellboy 2" would be a much better choice.

Mark my words, these will be the nominees for Best Makeup:
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (aging of the main characters) The Dark Knight (the joker's face) Tropic Thunder (just look at a photo of robert downey jr. in that movie!)
*The Reader could be a spoiler, but I wouldn't count on it.

I'm going to agree with you on this one. This list looks about right.

1. “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” 2. “Tropic Thunder” 3. “The Dark Knight” (There wasn't much makeup in here, but it might grab the last nomination. If not TDK, I see Hellboy taking it.) Sp: “Hellboy II: The Golden Army”
Make-up artist magazine just did a piece on Oscar contenders, and Hellboy 2's work is absolutely astonishing, reminiscent of Pan's Labyrinth 2 years ago.
They also showcased Tropic Thunder and Benjamin Buttons... both excellent as well. I think and hope these will be the three nominees.
I'm surprised Prince Caspian didn't at least make the bake-off.
