I think your predictions are about right. For some reason I do think that Maggie Smith will get an nomination for Best Supporting Actress though.

Well done Razvan: you seem to have got a high percentage correct! I am most disappointed in Taron Egerton not being nominated for Rocketman. Even if someone does not like the film, no one can deny that he was fantastic!

Thanks!
I got right 48/54 nominees in all 10 categories and the other ones were in my honourable mentions except Kathy Bates who seemed out of the race but they still nominated her for Richard Jewell (which I haven’t seen yet).
I am also disappointed that they snubbed Taron Egerton (who was fantastic) and Jennifer Lopez who was the biggest surprise I think.

You did really well – probably better than most of those articles in the film press who do predictions. 🙂
