As I mentioned above, for the most part I am not really surprised at who was nominated in each of these categories. I do wish The Hunger Games: Catching Fire had been nominated for either Costume Design or Makeup and Hairstyling - Effie Trinket's hair alone deserves a nomination. No nominations for Man of Steel is a bit surprising as well.
Choosing my favorites to win in each category proved to be pretty difficult considering I have not had the chance to see a lot of these nominated films. Hopefully before the Oscars airs on March 2 I will be able to see a few more of them. Who knows, maybe after seeing a few more nominated films my Oscar predictions might change.
UPDATE: After seeing all the winners and comparing them to my predictions, I ended up with 14 out of 24 correct predictions. Not too bad considering I did not have the chance to see all the nominees beforehand.
