UPDATE: Independent Spirit Awards

I received my official ballot for the Independent Spirit Awards last week. I only made it through two of the movies from NetFlix, and then they sent me two movies I had little interest in watching. All told, I have seen 5 of the 40 movies up for awards. The ballot has to be postmarked by February 16, so I've got some serious movie-watching to do in the next month. Who wants to go to the lagoon with me every night this week?

If I see all the movies in time I might vote. I mean, why not? But just for fun, here's part of the ballot. What are your picks?
