2019: AnksReview 91st Oscars Annual Academy Awards Prediction

2019 - Best Pictures Nominees
Well, it's been quite sometime I have been writing about Oscar Prediction and I have been quite glad that most of my prediction on popular category came across true so far. In that respect, 2018 is quite tricky for me and also lots of surprises to arrive at the final winner of the great Gold offered by Academy.

I do not want to open a debate on what movie deserved to be in nominees and especially if some of the great movies have been missed this year as let's trust the wisdom of filmmakers, festivals participants, continuous promotions across the globe and finally the thousands of votes which comes from Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Science for the final nominees. I also want to reiterate, for any movies to be even part of nomination itself is a great feat which needs to be celebrated. 

A slight difference I have done in my this year prediction, I have also highlighted "My Choice" as sometimes our own individual choices are different than the one who wins on other parameters.
