The nominations announce tomorrow, but they start to trickle in around midnight so I'm going to go ahead and post these predictions now. I'm all over the place here. I can't figure out Supporting Actor to save my life. Les Miserables tested really well with these guys, so leaving off Crowe and Redmayne was probably a mistake and yet again, I can't think of who to scrap (I have this hunch about McGregor that I can't bring myself to ignore).
