Oscars Prediction
For those movies that are doing good but didn't get a spot on the nomination list.
Finally get some time to do a serious oscars prediction, I didn't watch any of the short feature this year so I can't make a pick. Realizing that what I think it will win and what I think it should or could win can be quite different; thus, I also make a pick on which movie I think it should or could win for each category. Btw, some of them, like adapted screenplay, are pretty tough to guess. Anyways, still looking foward to next year.
