Movie Talk: 90th Academy Awards Predictions

3/3/2018

Welcome to another episode of moviemanMDG’s Movie Talk, where I talk about everything film-related.  It is that time of year again, ladies and gentlemen.  It is officially Oscar weekend, and every moviegoer is rooting for their favorite film (or celebrity) to take home the gold.  The 90th Academy Awards ceremony will air on Sunday night on ABC, so before then, I will be sharing my brief predictions on who will take home the Oscar and who might pull off an upset.  As always, my predictions will be based on the results of the Golden Globes, the Critics’ Choice Awards, and more importantly, my gut.  If you’re wondering why I’m posting this right now, let’s just say that all work and no play makes me a dull boy.  With that said, here are my official predictions for this year’s Academy Awards.
