The time has come - Oscar season! Where the "best" in movies come to duke it out to win a little statue of a naked gold man. While pitting wildly different artistic expressions against each other like a sporting event is inherently ridiculous, it's always fun to bet on the winners, and discover new movies based on the nominations! So if you want some predictions from a freak who has seen every nominated film, look no further!
BEST PICTUREKung fu-multiverse-family dramedy-mind bender Everything Everywhere All at Once is the juggernaut to beat this year. While the BAFTA Award (the British equivalent to the Academy Awards) went to the German WWI epic All Quiet on the Western Front, Everything Everywhere took the top prize at the Critics' Choice Awards, the Directors Guild, the Producers Guild and the Screen Actors Guild. With the most amount of nominations and precursor wins, I can't conceive of any other film taking it down!
