2010 Oscar Predictions
Friday, March 5, 2010 at 6:30PM
WILL WIN are in bold
SHOULD WIN (where i have an opinion) is underlined
Did Win are BIG
MY SCORE: 17/24
well, the oscars have come and gone and i had an average go with my predictions this year. it wasn't my most impressive performance, but it wasn't awful either. where i messed up this year was with the shorts (animation, live action, documentary). normally i get at least one of those right and this time nothing. and then, missing both screenplay winners is just awful. but, i went 17/19 for the rest of the awards and a perfect on the top 6 categories which isn't bad.... so, how did you all do?
