Oscar Nominations Announced Tomorrow: Final Predictions!
These are my final predictions for tomorrow’s Oscar nomination announcement. There’s still a lot of possible candidates in the running for each of the major category. Nothing is set in stone. Even the 9 spots for Best Picture aren’t completely solid either. Late entries American Sniper and Selma are both causing big problems in the field of nominations. Were they too late for Oscar voters to notice or did they come out at the right time to be the last films the voters remember? We’ll see tomorrow morning.
