Given the fact that the nominees for the Academy Awards this year are being announced tomorrow, it makes sense to me to make my predictions on the winners, mainly because by now the outcome has mostly already been spelled out by the guild awards and the critics awards. However a lot of things can change in one day. Most thought that The Dark Knight was a lock last year, but then The Reader came along and ruined everything. There were only five nominees. Somebody has to be given the blame for the upset and last year it just seemed unanimous. Still, here are my winner predictions:
