Awards -- Directors Guild of America (DGA)

The DGA has long stand as a predictor for the 5 "strongest" films for the Best Picture prize. Sometimes they throw a curveball in the mix, but it's rare. This year, I got 4/5 correct. Figured they would go with either the Coens or Danny Boyle for the 5th spot, but the vote for David O. Russell only makes The Fighter even stronger, and now joins it as one of the "Top 5". (meaning if there were only 5 nominees instead of 10, The Fighter would probably be in those 5) The nominees are..
DARREN ARONOFKSY "BLACK SWAN"
DAVID FINCHER "THE SOCIAL NETWORK"
TOM HOOPER "THE KING'S SPEECH"
CHRISTOPHER NOLAN "INCEPTION"
DAVID O. RUSSELL "THE FIGHTER"
