Awwright Den

Well, 15 minutes into the Oscar telecast I was three for three. Then my predictions hit a rough patch and didn't recover. I didn't see the ROTK juggernaut coming and that cost me dearly. Overall, I got only 15 of 24 (71%) correct. In the categories I publicly predicted I did even worse with an anemic 6 of 9 (67%) correct.

Even though I didn't predict a clean sweep for ROTK I'm pleased that Lord of the Rings was recognized in such spectacular fashion.

As for my prognostication skills, despite my poor overall showing, I'll have to comfort myself with the fact that I correctly guessed the winners in not one but both of the important Short Film categories.
