So with the Oscar just a few hours away it's time to roll out the oscar predictions.
Oscar for Actor in a Leading Role.
Who should win: Daniel Day-Lewis, His acting in Lincoln was phenomenal and from what I here he used some pretty extreme methods in order to get in to character for the movie.
Who will win: Daniel Day-Lewis This is one of the most sure bets of the night.
Oscar for Actress in a Leading Role.
Who should win: Jessica Chastain, she made Zero Dark Thirty her movie and was a big part of what made that movie work.
Who will win: Emmanuelle Riva, I don't think the Academy will pass up a chance to be this pretentious .
Oscar for Actor in a Supporting Role.
Who should win: Christoph Waltz, His biggest competition wasn't even nominated, Waltz was awesome in Django should be an easy win.
Who will win: Christoph Waltz, the Academy loves Waltz and he put on a great performance.
Oscar for Actress in a Supporting Role.
Who should win: Helen Hunt, had a good performance, this category is one of the weaker categories of the year.
Who will win: Anne Hathaway, I'm Against Les Mis getting award recognition, but I wouldn't have any quarrels with Anne Hathaway winning. For the little amount of time she was on-screen she stole the show, a close second in my book.
Oscar for Best Cinematography.
Who should win: Lincoln, It didn't have any beautiful visuals or amazing landscapes to really on, this movie looked beautiful even though it was a dialogue driven movie.
Who will win: Life of Pi, The Academy won't be able to resist all of the sparkly objects.
Oscar for Costume Design.
Who should win: Anna Karenina, Extravagant costumes that contributed to the great mise en scene in the movie
Who will win: Les Miserables, it's not like it has a ton of competition. I mean Snow White and the Huntsman got nominated in this category, come on Academy get you shit together, what is this the people's choice awards?
Oscar for Best Directing.
Who should win: Lincoln, Steven Spielberg. This category had a ridiculous amount of snubs, Spielberg wasn't the best this year, but he's the best of the nominees.
Who will win: Lincoln, Steven Spielberg. He's got the Oscar pedigree.
Oscar for Film Editing.
Who should win: Zero Dark Thirty, the editing did a great job of adding tension and the progression of the movie was seamless.
Who will win: Argo, Eh whatever.
Best Foreign Language Film.
Who should win: No, Chile. Honestly the only movie I've seen in this category is Amour and wasn't a fan of it. I've seen the trailer for NO and I love the movie's premise and I'm fairly certain it's not worse then Amour.
Who will win: Amour, book it.
Oscar for Makeup and Hairstyling.
Who should win: The Hobbit an Unexpected Journey, Make-Up is great. BUT HOW DID CLOUD ATLAS NOT GET NOMINATED? We'll save that conversation for another day.
Who will win: Les Miserables, While accepting this award they should have to thank the mud that they made their actors role around, to make them look dirty.
Oscar for Best Original Music Score.
Who should win: John Williams, Lincoln. You can just feel the vast amount of emotion in this score.
Who will win: Mychael Danna, The Academy will love the "bollywoodish" sounding score.
Oscar for Best Original Song.
Who should win: Skyfall, "Skyfall" by Adele.
Who will win: Skyfall, "Skyfall" by Adele. It'll win because Adele.
Oscar for Best Production Design.
Who should win: Lincoln, It did a great job of recreating the 19th century and bring it to the screen
Who will win: Les Miserables, some of the Production Design looked a little ridiculous, let's hope it doesn't win.
Oscar Short Film - Animated
Who should win: Head over Heels, Incredibly clever and a sweet short.
Who will win: Paperman, It's incredibly endearing, plus it's disney the kings of Animation.
Oscar Short Film - Live Action
Who should win: Henry, It's a much better and psychological version of Amour.
Who will win: The Buzkashi Boys, All the shorts were really good in my opinion, I don't think I would have a problem with any of the 5 nominees winning it.
Oscar for Sound Editing
Who should win: Django Unchained, I don't think there is anyone in the industry cares and focuses on sound as much a Quentin Tarantino.
Who will win: Django Unchained, just taking a shot in the dark. It makes sense to me, so why not the Academy too? Right?
Oscar for Sound Mixing.
Who should win: Lincoln, I don't really have a compelling argument......
Who will win: Les Miserables, ugh.
Oscar for Visual Effects.
Who should win: Life of Pi, The effects are beautiful and it would be nice to see a movie win this award without using big explosions
Who will win: Life of Pi, I could tell that the Tiger was CGI, but apparently a lot of other people couldn't....
Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay.
Who should win: Beasts of the Southern Wild, such a great and unique story, which you don't see to often.
Who will win: Argo, Oh boy another movie about how America and the CIA are awesome.
Oscar for Best Original Screenplay
Who should win: Django Unchained, there are some laughs and the dialogue seems genuine to the time period.
Who will win: Amour, there goes the Academy showing off how pretentious they can be again.
Oscar for Best Picture
Who should win: Django Unchained, stylish, witty, and tackles extremely tough subject matter. Django is everything I want in a movie and more.Who will win: Argo, It's been surging recently, and Affleck's fellow directors are gonna trying to stick to the academy for not giving him that director nom. Unfortunately in the midst of all that they forget that they're supposed to pick the best movie.
* categories not mentioned Animated Feature, Documentary Feature and Documentary Short
