Oscar Nomination Predictions

I don't pay as much attention to the Oscars as I used (so basically, just more than 96% of people instead of 99% of people), and doing that has allowed me to enjoy the season more than I did a decade ago. So, no, I haven't thought through my predictions as much as many have - but it's how I see things shaking down next Tuesday.
