Can you believe that we are just two months from 2014? The new year seemed so long ago like two weeks ago but now here we are about to be done with the year. Which of course means now is ripe for a new set of Oscar Predictions! I will be attending AFI Fest on behalf of AwardsCircuit.com, which I may have spoken about (idk really it’s been a rough past two weeks). Anyways there has been a lot of jostling and jockeying in the past few weeks.
Y’all…like what in the world has happened to the Oscar race? I mean everything seemed so clear just a week ago and now it’s like the world has gone to hell. I feel like these movies studios came and said fuck your couch and I couldn’t do anything about it. So with all this, I thought I #minuswell update my Oscar predictions. Check them out.
We are so close to Oscar season really starting in earnest. Venice and Telluride begin this week and Toronto is only a week and a half away, followed by New York Film Festival. So that meant it was time to give the Oscar Predictions the old update. Given that there has been so much movement with category changes and pictures entering the race, it was harder to update these Oscar predictions than I thought it would be but here goes nothing.
Ah August, the month when summer begins to dwindle away and the Oscar race starts to take some semblance of a form. It still feels like the wild wild West with regards to what could possibly end up in the lineup but with each passing month, and new trailer, we can at least get a better understanding of what the race could potentially look like. Here are my Oscar predictions and analysis.
