It’s really hard to believe that we’re already a day away from the Oscar nominations. Pushing the timeframe up has made few of us excited. It simply backs us up on how much time we have to finish things. Anyway, we’ve put together our final predictions (at least until the remaining precursors that announce today go out). Below you’ll find our picks in every category. Best Picture is still organized based on the order we think they have the best chance at being nominated. Any updates we have will be posted in the comments as we can.
We will have our first post-nominations predictions ready for you by Friday, so stay tuned!
