Oscar Predictions Contest
February 17, 2015
This Sunday the Academy Awards will air on ABC at 7pm Eastern time. Here are my picks with some comments. Below is a link to the Nominations. The first ChicksFlicks.com Member to email me at chiefchick@chicksflicks.com with all the correct picks for the top six categories (shown below) will receive a check for $100! There might even be prizes for others as well; who knows?
| Best Supporting Actor: J K Simmons (will and should win) in Whiplash |
 |
|
| Best Supporting Actress: Patricia Arquette(no real standouts)in Boyhood will win. I like Felicity Jones in The Theory Of Everything |
|
|
| Best Actor: Eddie Redmayne(should win) in The Theory of Everything ,but there is the inside Hollywood vote for Michael Keaton’s comeback in Birdman |
|
|
| Best Actress: Julianne Moore in Still Alice
|
 |
|
| Best Director: Richard Linklater for Boyhood will win because of the uniqueness of his film.
The director of The Theory of Everything, James Marsh, whom I prefer, was not even nominated.
|
|
|
| Best Picture: Boyhood or
Birdman will win, but I think Selma the more important and better film.

Similarly, if you want to buy a ticket to a movie in theaters, just click on Fandango. The Chief Chick did that to make sure she got a ticket to The Hunger Games: Mockingjay (there were no screenings) on opening day! Please let us know of any movies you would like us to review for you. Stay warm and Enjoy the Oscars! The Chief Chick  |
