In years gone past i've had Oscar parties where the attendees predict the Oscar winners for fun and monetary gain. All very nerdy. But this year i couldn't really give a rats. But i put my guesses here anyway.
The Oscars are so predictable these days it's not that much fun. The real joy lies in poking fun at poorly dressed and drunken celebrities. But I'll leave that to the experts at Go Fug Yourself and Defamer.

I very stupidly came to browse your blog in an ad break for the Oscars.
I now doubly hate you. See Kings of Leon comments for earlier reason.
