[Editorial] Winners Of The 91st Academy Awards (2019) Against My Predictions


I have just caught up with the Oscars show last night. I was right for 8 categories in total (same as last year's prediction), out of the 12 I have guessed (in bold).

Best speech of the night went to Olivia Coleman, who was just hilarious. Best moment was when Captain America chivalrously guided Regina King up the stage... until Bradley Cooper's opening verse to his duet with Lady Gaga!

Without a host, there were a few awkward moments in transition but not too big a deal overall. Were they able to cut the running time shorter though?
