When the Academy Awards draw near, predictions for the Big Five categories (Best Director, Best Actress, Best Actor, and Best Screenplay, Adapted or Original) are inevitable. Making an educated guess at which movie will win the Academy Award for Best Picture typically isn't that hard. All it takes is a little awareness of the overall vibes of that particular award season. Knowing who were the winners at the Guild Awards, for instance, is usually helpful. Likewise, paying attention to which nominees have the most Oscar nods and in which categories is also a good idea.
