Oscar Predictions: Round #1

Its that time of year again, Award Season! As always I'll be posting my Oscar predictions in three rounds. This first one will be the first one, the second will be the day before the Oscar nominations are announced and the last one will be who I think will win and it will be posted the night/day before the Oscars.

Much like last year these predictions are made by a certain system where I follow a certain amount of award shows and tally up who has been nominated and winning, these aren't necessarily "my picks" just who I think will be nominated based on wins and nominations.

Also, in case anyone is wondering why there are no mentions of Star Wars: The Force Awakens - the film has not been screened for critics and such for awards season, this was done to avoid any possibility of spoilers, so there's are no nominations for the film as of yet. That doesn't mean it won't get nominated of any Oscars. As of right now I'm willing to bet it'll get nominated for technical categories at the very least.
