As you know, the Oscars are tomorrow!
BigJ and I have watched the Academy Awards every year for the (almost) 9 years we have been together. We enjoy it, and it's fun to watch the snubs, the speeches, and the snafus! Generally, we watch all the coverage, starting with the Red Carpet specials, and recently, I have taken up live-tweeting the event (you can follow me on Twitter @lololovesfilms).
Today, we'd like to share with you our picks and predictions for the 2014 Oscars! Since most people only care about the "biggest" categories, we have showcased them for you below.
Who do you think will win? What was your favorite movie of 2013?
Please let us know in the comments below!
The movies we think will win IN BOLD, the ones we think should win are ITALICIZED.
