Here we are again! I really hope Boyhood gets snubbed and the gimmick didn’t actually fool everyone. I am REALLY hoping Patricia Arquette doesn’t win but I had to pick her just because that’s the way it is looking (maybe Emma Stone?). That said, I’m also going against the grain and picking neither Boyhood or Birdman for best picture.
Last minute change for best song, I don’t know what I was thinking.
