Oscar Prediction Results

15/24 Total, 5/8 Major, 9/13 Non-Major/Non-Short, 1/3 Shorts

In all, I made the mistake of underestimating The Hurt Locker, thinking the recent campaigning controversies would hurt it. Hindsight being 20/20 I would have switched on Picture, Original Screenplay, and the Sound awards and had one of my stronger years.
