Oscar Nominees: Short Films

For my first time predicting these categories, I didn’t do too badly, scoring ten out of fifteen. I’m excited to report that, for the first time as far as I know, the documentary shorts will be shown along with the live action and animated ones, so I should have the opportunity to see all fifteen nominated shorts on February 20th and offer winner predictions before Oscar night. Since I’ve only seen two of the animated shorts at this point and nothing else, I’ll wait to offer commentary until them. All images below are from Oscar.com.

Best Documentary Short Film

My predictions: 3/5
The nominees: Killing in the Name, Poster Girl, Strangers No More, Sun Come Up, The Warriors of Qiugang
The frontrunner: Killing in the Name

My predictions: 4/5
The nominees: The Confession, The Crush, God of Love, Na Wewe, Wish 143
The frontrunner: The Confession

Best Animated Short Film

My predictions: 3/5
The nominees: Day & Night, The Gruffalo, Let’s Pollute, The Lost Thing, Madagascar
