I have a pretty solid track record for guessing who will land Academy Awards (just ask anyone whose gone up against me in an Oscar pool), but as I said in my earlier post, this year is tricky.
I guessed two ways: a King’s Speech sweep, or everyone else. Seems like most critics share that same sentiment. Here is a complied list of “Who Will Win” Oscar picks from critics I respect. (For the record, I don’t respect Entertainment Weekly, but their Oscar handicapper seems to know what he’s talking about.)
