It’s already that time of year again! As you all know, awards season for me hold the emotional equivalency of a five year old to Christmas Eve.
I have to say every single picture nominated this year has been beyond worthy and I have loved the mix of genres and diversity. For a while Best Picture has consisted of very formulated dramatic plots but I am absolutely living for this year’s lineup. Although some pictures I feel deserved a more significant nod like Midsommar and The Farewell didn’t make the major categories, I can’t complain about the final lineup at all.
Personally Jojo Rabbit is my film of the year and the stand-out for so many reasons, so I really wish it would have received more awards love. In saying that, it will stand the test of time as (in my opinion) one of the best films ever made and doesn’t need an award to prove that.
Any-who without further ado, here is my ballot for this year’s winners. My votes are based on actually predicting who the Academy will award, not what my heart wishes . After watching the Oscars for the last 15 years you get sort of good at calculating who will win so this is the closest I ever get to betting on anything.
Don’t forget to let me know your predictions - I love when people join in on Hollywood’s biggest race of the year!
Red dot: logical predictions
Blue dot: what I believe deserves the award the most (if there is no blue dot that choice aligns with my personal choice).
HAPPY OSCARS DAY!
