Oscars 2020: All Winner Predictions

Every year, we say this is the last year we care about the Oscars.

It’s become a political pseudo-intellectual commercial trend that no longer stands for any artistic value. The ceremony is getting worse and worse, the nominees are more ridiculous with every passing year, and the hope for a legitimate quality awards show is close to dead. This might actually be the first year we don’t pull an all-nighter watching the Academy Awards.

And yet, we’re hypocrites. And still care just a little bit. So, we’ve scratched up our annual winner predictions list for all you positive thinkers out there who keep track. All we can do next is hope for a quality Oscars show.
