And the Oscar Goes to...

This is the first Academy Awards show that I am not excited about. Last night I searched for all the trailers of the best picture nominees, as well as the best actor and actress nominees. After I was done I realized why. There were only two or three movies I thought looked good, and that was after watching about 10-15 trailers. I know I shouldn't do this, but I have predictions - based on politically correctness and my take on the movie trailers I watched last night.

Best Picture - Gravity 
This is one of the three I would go see in a theater.

Best Actor - Matthew McConaughey, Dallas Buyers Club
This is two of the three I would go see, but likely on DVD. 

Best Actress - Cate Blanchett, Blue Jasmine, but the academy absolutely LOVES Meryl, so we'll just have to wait and see. August: Osage County is the third movie I'd possibly watch, but just for the acting.

Supporting Actress - Lupita Nyong'o, 12 Years a Slave. She happens to be a Yale graduate like Meryl.

Gotta go. It's starting right now.
