So, to make things a bit less tedious, I've decided to shorten this to just three weeks worth of splitting up the categories.
Each week, I'll post a new set of categories and nominees for the upcoming Academy Awards. You're job, simply make a comment to make your predictions for the featured categories.
At the end of the month, the person with the most accurate predictions will be crowned the winner and win a membership to AFI.
All predictions must be in by the end of the month.

Ashley Madison-Sex Lies and Scandal Review: The documentary refuses to take a stand on whether or not it wants us to feel bad for cheaters, infuriating viewers with its wishy washy attitude.
