77th Annual Academy Awards (2005)
Presentation to air on TV on Sunday, February 27, 2005 (my 18th birthday!)
for films released in 2004. The nominations list were announced on Tuesday,
January 25, 2004.
... and yes, we skip some categories... just because I don't care about
best editing, for example.
Last year, I struck out on nearly every category. I've come to the notion
that it's not necessarily the *best* in each category, but a combination
of the quality of the nominees and politics. It's all politics and who
you know, man. So this year, we have both my picks that deserve to win,
and those I figure are the "popular" picks to win (and those
aren't always the same, obviously).
The is
whom I think ought to win, the
is my guess of who will win, and once announced, the title in
bold is the actual winner.
