Oh, and my major Oscar nominee predictions

This is kind of a personal hobby for me; I know at this point I could be completely off-base, and some of them are crazy hunches on my part, so just to avoid second-guessing myself until it gets annoying, I won't be updating these until the beginning of next year. It might be kinda fun to see how far off/close I was. All right, let's go.
