I thought Llewyn Davis was safe, but I guess not.  I don't think Dallas is getting the screenplay Oscar, so swap back in the Coens and that is probably the Oscar original lineup.  As for Adapted, I'm surprised they went for Lone Survivor over Spectacular Now.  12 Years a Slave is definitely in for Oscar, and I doubt August: Osage County makes it there either.  Either Philomena or Blue Is the Warmest Color will kick it out.  It was announced recently that Short Term 12 is now competing in Adapted, and I wouldn't rule that out completely.
