Interesting predictions. Tough choices on Gone Girl replaced by American Sniper and Nightcrawler for BP. No matter what, you might turn out to be right.
ReplyDeleteI took a risk not predicting Interstellar for Original Score and replaced it with The Grand Budapest Hotel. We'll see how The Academy decides
These short films are always so hard to predict, you never know where the Academy goes.
Thanks Nika!
DeleteI'm hoping to someday break the code with those shorts. My guess is that there must be a way to predict them, if only everyone paid attention to them as closely as we do the other races. If they got as much press as the others then there should be a way, which is not, of course, to suggest that I've got them right here though!
