It’s the last day of 2015 and we close it with The Gold Rush Gang’s ‘final’ Oscar predictions…for the year. In just a few days we’ll have the Producers Guild nominations to help (or hamper) the eventual Oscar Best Picture hopefuls but for right now there doesn’t seem to be anything other than Spotlight moving its way closer to the Kodak stage at the end of February. Although, lots of people thought that about Boyhood and then Birdman trumped it when it came to the industry awards (which is what really counts) after the critics and the Golden Globes had their say.
So for now, here are the predictions for all 24 Oscar categories from the Gold Rush Gang. Click on the category title to see point totals, who voted for what and other contenders.
Happy New Year!!
