Now that I am out of the Comic Con grinder, I figured it was time to do, reporting on and discussing films that haven’t come out yet!…wait…I might have misjudged this. Anyways, here are my newest set of Oscar predictions. I don’t have much in the way of analysis except to say that I made a lot of changes since April. Biggest Category Changes: Best Picture, which saw me move half of the original films out of the lineup, the acting races, which got 3 new members each, and the sound categories, which look amazingly exciting this year.

Interesting predictions, however:
‘Dheepan’ would have to be submitted for France. India had no involvement in it.
‘The Tribe’ isn’t eligible. It was considered last year, but Ukraine went with ‘The Guide’ instead.
