... and yes, we skip some categories... just because I don't care about best editing, for example.

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 I 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 (after the ceremony, of course).
