And the Oscar Seer Says…

And the Oscar Seer Says…

Every year, I draft up my list of Academy Award nominee predictions based on various sources speculating, past winners at the earlier awards ceremonies and the overall Oscar buzz. Later this morning, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will announce the 2018 Oscar nominees. I am posting here my predictions for some of the key award categories that I personally tackle on my annual Oscar Run viewing antics. Please note that these are in no way my picks for I haven’t seen most of these films — YET. Heh. Oh, but don’t you worry: my own list of nominees as well as my Oscar Win picks, will be posted just before the ceremony which airs live on ABC the evening of Sunday, February 24 starting at 8:00 p.m. So without further ado, I present to you my somewhat educated guesses for this year’s Oscar noms.  And as always, thanks for reading. ~ Chris K.
