so did you watch?
DeleteI'm not a movie go-er - and haven't seen one movie on the nominee list. I'd like to see Gravity, Her, and August: Osage County - which oddly enough, isn't on the list.
ReplyDeleteWho are your pics to win?
The Wolf of Wall Street is the one I am most keen about
DeleteHi Amrit
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post again, I have been so busy that I have not looked at the nominations. So I did not know who they were.
This is another year that I have not formed an opinion beforehand. Having moved to Spain we don't go to the pictures so much.
Thanks for a great post and a great blog
well, I predicted the winners on my FB page and half of them came true... felt good and wise about movies :)
