ACADEMY AWARDS - 2014 EDITION

Salutations, fellow readers! I apologize for not having written many reviews lately. It's that time of year in which nothing is really coming out because the good stuff is being saved for the fall. So, yeah. Not much to write about now. But that doesn't mean I've forgotten about you.

So, without further ado, here are my Oscar predictions for this year's awards. I won't be listing the entire list of nominees because of how time consuming it is, but you can find such a list right here. I'm not going to bother writing description for everything. 

BEST PICTURE 

Who Will Win - 12 Years a Slave
Let's be real, everyone knows this is happening. This movie was made for the Oscars, and there's very little doubt with anyone that it'll win. While the other nominees are actually pretty great, but 12 Years stands out above the rest. 

Wh Should Win - 12 Years a Slave
It really does deserve it. I've talked about how much I loved this film for a damn good reason, and I'll honestly be shocked if it doesn't win. 

The Dark Horse - Gravity or American Hustle 
If not 12 Years, it'll be one of these two. While I think it's more likely to go to Gravity, American Hustle has a decent shot, even if it doesn't deserve it. 


ACTOR IN A LEADING ROLE

Who Will Win - Matthew McConaughey - Dallas Buyers Club

Who Should Win - Chiwetel Ejiofor - 12 Years a Slave

The Dark Horse - Bruce Dern - Nebraska


ACTRESS IN A LEADING ROLE

Who Will Win - Cate Blanchett - Blue Jasmine

Who Should Win - Cate Blanchett - Blue Jasmine

The Dark Horse - Sandra Bullock - Gravity


ACTOR IN A SUPPORTING ROLE 

Who Will Win - Jared Leto - Dallas Buyers Club 

Who Should Win - Pretty Much Anyone Except for Bradley Cooper
I'm very indifferent as to who wins this award... unless it's Bradley Cooper. How crazy would it be if Jonah Hill becomes an Oscar winner?

The Dark Horse - Bradley Cooper - American Hustle


ACTRESS IN A SUPPORTING ROLE

Who Will Win - Lupita Nyong'o - 12 Years a Slave

Who Should Win - Lupita Nyong'o - 12 Years a Slave

The Dark Horse - June Squibb - Nebraska
Not gonna lie, I kind of want her to win. She was fucking hysterical. 


DIRECTING

Who Will Win - Alfonso Caurón - Gravity

Who Should Win - Alfonso Caurón - Gravity

The Dark Horse - Steve McQueen - 12 Years a Slave


ADAPTED SCREENPLAY

Who Will Win - 12 Years a Slave

Who Should Win - Before Midnight

The Dark Horse - Any one of these nominations


ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY

Who Will Win - Her

Who Should Win - Her

The Dark Horse - Well... pretty much any one of these noms. 


VISUAL EFFECTS

Gravity is literally going to win every single technical award it has been nominated for. 


That's probably everything worth talking about. Let's be real, we all know that Gravity is going to win every technical award and maybe nothing else. It totally deserves it.
