OSCAR PREDICTIONS 2015

OSCAR PREDICTIONS 2015

Disclaimer: These are the films that I personally believe should win in each category, not my prediction of who I believe The Academy will choose.  Also, I did not see Song of the Sea, The Tale of Princess Kaguya, or Two Days, One Night.

Picture – Boyhood  (2nd Pick: The Theory of Everything, though Birdman will win if Boyhood does not)
Actor – Eddie Redmayne  (2nd Pick: Michael Keaton)
Actress – Julianne Moore  (2nd Pick: Rosamund Pike)
Supporting Actor – J.K. Simmons  (2nd Pick: Edward Norton)
Supporting Actress – Patricia Arquette  (2nd Pick: Emma Stone)  (Tough to leave off Meryl Streep)
Directing – Richard Linklater (Boyhood)  (2nd Pick: Alejandro G. Iñárritu (Birdman))
Film Editing – Whiplash  (2nd Pick: Boyhood)  (tough to leave off American Sniper)
