Oscar Time aka My Gay Super Bowl

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

Oh, Christmas. Yeah, that too. But I’m talking about something even more important….Motion Picture Award Season! Ah, can’t you just feel the energy around you on burning with Hollywood entitlement. I know I can.

If anyone knows me, the thing I obsess about even more than my weight is movies and Award Shows! (Award Shows get a double caps because they are that important.)

Every year I predict, for literally no one's desire but my own, the Oscar nominations. Usually I wait until after the Globes and SAG nominations come out, but this year I decided to start early. These have the right to change between now and January 25th when the actual Oscar Nominations are announced.
