Oscar Predictions – Who Should and Will Win
Tonight’s the big night! Check out my final Oscar predictions of who should and will win the big prize tonight.
I apologize for all my wrong predictions.
BEST PICTURE
Stats say The Big Short, hype says The Revenant. Definitely room for an upset, but it’s between those two.
WILL WIN – THE REVENANT
SHOULD WIN – SPOTLIGHT
BEST DIRECTOR
After the DGA, Inarritu is set up for history. George Miller could surprise for his incredible vision. He’s Inarritu’s biggest competition.
WILL WIN – ALEJANDRO GONZALEZ INARRITU – THE REVENANT
SHOULD WIN – GEORGE MILLER – MAD MAX: FURY ROAD
BEST ACTOR
Bet the house on Leo and get ready for a classy and excellent acceptance speech. He can’t lose.
WILL WIN LEONARDO DICAPRIO – THE REVENANT
SHOULD WIN – MICHAEL FASSBENDER – STEVE JOBS
BEST ACTRESS
Another sure thing. Bet the house on Brie.
WILL WIN – BRIE LARSON – ROOM
SHOULD WIN – BRIE LARSON – ROOM
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
Sylvester Stallone’s story, along with the performance, will guide him to gold. Mark Rylance could be a surprise winner, as could Tom Hardy, for a great year and getting swept up in a potential The Revenant sweep.
WILL WIN – SYLVESTER STALLONE – CREED
SHOULD WIN – SYLVESTER STALLONE – CREED
BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS
