I'll know soon enough. The script was admittedly great. I think this year there is going to be no major frontrunner other than Milk.

But, one can't really say until you've seen them, but Milk has a best director, best picture, best actor nomination lock just waiting.

My hunch is Frost will get Langella for Best actor, he's great.

Well, it appears to be sinking on rottentomtoes. It's now at 69%, and sadly dropping. I think you said it would divide audiences and that is pretty much what it's doing. Problem is, while I can still like it (I hope), the Academy probably won't. Cinematography might be all it has going for it now.

Could Frost/Nixon be the front runner come Oscar time now?

Sounds….pretty much like I expected it to. Which, is good. As soon as my annoying exams are over (that caused me to miss my own press screening of the film), I’ll see it. Can’t wait.
