So instead of being disqualified he wins? *grumble*
Just to let you know that I very nearly changed a prediction last minute which would have got me 17. But I didn't because I believed AYBG when he said it would disqualify me. :wall:
It's the first time that I didn't get one of the big 6 right either. Dammit. Why didn't Viola Davis get the Oscar?

Dear me! I really should have stuck with Meryl too! In my heart I always thought she did the better job, but I believed the hype and went for Viola....

I don't know if this is the right place for this but here are my dis-agree Oscars:
Supporting Actor: Christopher Plummer, for me: Kenneth Branagh by a mile
Supporting Actress: Octavia Spencer, for me: Berenice Bejo
Sound Mixing: Hugo, for me: Drive
Film Editing: The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, for me: Midnight in Paris (can't remember if it was nominated)

Plummer should have taken a life in films or any similar mention.
