My 86th Academy Awards Predictions

Well these awards definitely snuck up on me this year, because of the extended voting season it felt like the show wouldn’t be here anytime soon, but here we are the day before we find out who the Academy felt had the best performances this year. Last year, I had my best Academy predictions year ever getting all but 2 and a half categories correct. Let’s hope I can do the same the same, if not better this year. Well, let’s get to it!

2014 Oscar Nominee Predictions

I am in dangerous new territory here. Last year was my first time putting together a list of who will win the Oscars to pretty great success predicting all but 2 and a half categories (who could possibly foresee a tie in sound editing?) correctly.

My Top 10 Films of the Year List…so far

Taking a page from my favorite director, Quentin Tarantino, I have decided to give my favorite 10-ish films from the first 9 and a half months of 2013. It has been a pretty good year so far and it was a bit tough finding a top 10 but I was able to do so. However, I couldn’t leave my list at just 10 (who can) so I decided to put in a few honorable mentions that nearly cracked my top 10 as well. With Oscar bait season upon us let’s see how my list holds up by the end of the year.
