2011 Best Supporting Actor Oscar Contenders

Will a former winner dominate the field or will the Academy crown a new champion?

Andrew Garfield, "The Social Network"

Pro:  Easily the most praised performance in David Fincher's critical and box office hit, Garfield is seemingly a lock for a nomination.  It doesn't hurt he also delivered another strong turn in "Never Let Me Go" earlier in the fall.  The recent up and comer is already "here."

Con:  It would be hard to imagine Garfield not making the cut.  The only concern is whether support for co-star Justin Timberlake could siphon some of his votes, but that would be a big surprise.
