The Oscars are tonight and with it comes the end of one of the longest awards seasons we’ve had in a while thanks to the interruptions caused by the work stoppage last summer. I have been in a work vortex so have not done much since January, but I appeared on Out Now with Aaron and Abe to discuss these picks more so check it out at the end of this Oscar predictions post. There is not too much rhyme or reason why I selected these films other than knowing Oppenheimer is bout to rack up the awards. Very interesting after having years of the Best Picture winning movie winning 4 or less Oscars, we’ll have back to back years of 7+ awards going to the Best Picture winner.
