The 91st Academy Awards will be held this Sunday on February 24th 2019. After a whole year of thoughtful analysis, debate, arguing, stress, moments of joy and moments of defeat, it’s all come down to this. All of the guilds are done, the critics have had their say and Oscar voting as of yesterday is officially over. Now, all that is left is to predict the winners. You’ve already heard some of our predictions on Episode 130, and you know who we want to win but now we want to hear from all of you!
We are holding a contest to see who will get the most categories correct this Sunday. All categories must be guessed on with the submission deadline being the day of the awards, before the winners are announced.
