Who will be watching the Oscars and do you have any predictions or film/actor/actress/director you want to win?

I won't be more than likely. My friend is really into Gary Oldman and is happy he is nominated. We saw the movie, and there was nothing memorable/outstanding or plainly Oscar-worthy about Oldman's performance or the role. He doesn't agree on the merits because it's him and thinks he should have been nominated before. I think he's an ok actor.

I'll probably watch while I'm house/dog sitting for a friend.
Haven't seen all of the nominations this year so I don't really have any predictions on who will win.

Will Billy Crystal be great or will he tank?

Might check in on it if nothing else is on, but I haven't seen a single nominee as far as I know, so I don't have a horse in the race.
As for Billy Crystal, I expect he'll neither excel nor bomb, just be exactly the boring, safe presence the Academy expects/wants him to be. Had the Eddie Murphy-hosting gig actually gone through, I'd definitely be more interested in tuning in.

Billy Crystal will be his usual completely unfunny self. No fucking idea how this dude ever had a fucking career. Pretty much agree. He must have just known all of "the right people" or something. I wouldn't go so far as to say the guy is untalented or anything, but he's just not very damn funny. He's not even a case of someone like Jay Leno who really actually was funny once and then sold out/quit caring, as far as I can tell from Crystal's early stuff he still sucked then too. I can see him having a career, but not the insanely huge one he actually got while so many funnier comics languished mostly-unknown in the clubs.
