This Monday. Everything we’ve talked about this year…it all comes down to this Monday morning. Starting at 8:18am EST, the nominations for the 92nd Academy Awards will be announced. The Next Best Picture team has been debating, analyzing and obsessing over what we think will be nominated and what we think will be snubbed. After Monday morning, we won’t have to speculate anymore. No, after that…it’ll be all about what wins. But for now, click below to see our final Oscar Nomination Predictions.
Predictions are provided by: Amanda Spears, Casey Lee Clark, Cody Dericks, Daniel Howat, Josh Parham, Matt Neglia, Michael Schwartz, Nicole Ackman, Rebecca Daniel, Ryan C. Showers, Tom O’Brien & Will Mavity
