My Oscar Predictions Results

With the Oscars now done and the Awards season over (except for the all important Rolling Picture Awards which will see the nominations released this week). There is just time to see how close my predictions for the winners on Sunday night were:

Best Picture: 12 Years a Slave. CORRECT

Best Director: Alfonso Cuaron (Gravity). CORRECT

Best Actor in a Lead Role: Matthew McConaughey (Dallas Buyers Club). CORRECT

Best Actress in a Lead Role: Cate Blanchett (Blue Jasmine). CORRECT

Best Supporting Actor: Jared Leto (Dallas Buyers Club). CORRECT

Best Supporting Actress: Lupita Nyongo (12 Years a Slave). WRONG

Best Original Screenplay: Her. WRONG

Best Adapted Screenplay: 12 Years a Slave. WRONG

Best Documentary: 20 Feet from Stardom. WRONG

In the main categories it was all going so well except for the Best Supporting Actress and after that it was downhill all the way. 5/9 being about average I guess. Cleveland Indians Pitcher John Axford successfully picked the winner of all 18 awards!
