THE TIME IS HERE. THE TIME IS NOW. THE FLICKS HAVE BEEN PIX'D.
The Oscars are upon us, and we've been working tirelessly, night and day, weekends and holidays, to bring you the most accurate and up-to-date predictions in every category. If you haven't already, check out our thoughts and reasonings for all of our predictions on our Podcast.
We're also including our personal preferences for each category, although there are so many great movies in the running this year, and we'd be happy to see so many of them take home the gold on Sunday.
Good luck in your Oscar pools!
