Tomorrow night is the 82nd annual Academy Awards at the Kodiac Theater in LA and everyone in Hollywood will be attending. Now, usually the Oscars is this long, stiff, yet must-see event every year. But I think this year is going to be more incredible because comedic juggernauts Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin are co-hosting this year! Kathryn Bigelow may become the first female to win the Oscar for Best Director! So, this is history in the making!
There are two components to my Oscar predictions; the movies and individuals that I want to win Oscars and the movies that will win Oscars. I only predicted the most important awards of the night. Enjoy!
