85th Academy Awards – Wrap Up
I think one of my friends summed up last nights 85th Academy Awards best when he said “everyone got some love this year.” Last week I posted my predictions for last nights winners and how did I do you ask. Well, I must admit that I didn’t do that great:
14 out of 24 or 58% correct. Surprisingly many of the categories I thought were a lock went to very well deserving recipients, so in the end I was quite happy.
Below is a recap by category. Green category titles I predicted correctly and red category titles my predictions didn’t pan out. And that as they say is a wrap!
