The 94th Academy Awards are right around the corner! As the awards season is in full effect, It’s time for an updated look at my predictions in all the categories (except the shorts) for the 94th Oscars.
This year offers a slew of potential Best Picture candidates and with a straight 10 nominees, it should lead to a fun Oscar race.
