Predicting Tomorrow's Oscar Noms!

Ok, folks. I know I've been unusually mum about this Awards Season (with the exception of a theory that I'm about to place a lot of faith in). But it's to talk the Oscar Nominations. They are tomorrow. That is exciting. It's time to predict things.

I'm not in rooms with industry members who are "buzzing." I've been following the guilds and the Globes, but most of us seem to agree there's a general mix of consensus and confusion. Here, then, is how I think it could go down.

I have no clue with Foreign Film, Animated, Doc, or shorts. Don't ask me.

BEST PICTURE
Anywhere between five and ten nominees. I'm thinking ten.

The Big Short
Brooklyn

BEST DIRECTOR

Alejandro G. Iñárritu, The Revenant
