Reminder:
Before we start, no need to go through every single category, so I’m just sticking to my favorites with this one. And, please remember my predictions are built on acute knowledge and research of every little component involving film; therefore, they cannot be judged or questioned in the least. The assumption is that all of them are correct.
Every. Single. One.
