My predictions in all of the 24 categories. I haven't seen everything, so a few of the picks are based on which are considered favorites to win. Best Picture was actually the trickiest as I think it could easily go to Spotlight because of that films important topic. However Spotlight has the backing of a smaller studio in Open Road Films, so I'm guessing The Revenant (distributed by 20th Century Fox) has more money for its oscar campaign.
Best Supporting actor is also a very close race, with Stallone, Ruffalo and Rylance all in with a shot at winning.
I would love to see World of Tomorrow win for Best Animated Short Film, which to me is a masterpiece. Bear Story (which I've seen and is very good) and Sanjay’s Super Team appear to be the frontrunners in that category.

Interesting. But just imagine if Mad Max wins Best Picture. I will do cartwheels to work tomorrow.
ReplyDelete@Pete: haha, well Mad Max Fury Road won 6 out of 10, so did very well last night.
DeleteI only predicted 16 out of 24 categories and got 11 of 'em right. Hey I also thought Cinderella would win Best Costume Design but since Sandy Powell was also nominated for Carol, I think she might've split her own votes. I just posted my recap up, boy I didn't see the Spotlight win coming, I also thought The Revenant was gonna win.
ReplyDelete@Ruth: Spotlight was surprising. I went with Cinderella because those types of costume dramas have won in that category in the past. 11 of 16 is well done!
DeleteIn a year with some tight races, you did very well. Lol, the shorts are usually a killer, though.
ReplyDelete@Josh: Yeah, tight races did make the predictions tricky! I did a better job in previous years.
