Final Oscar Nominations Predictions 2024

I’ve kept up with awards a little less than I usually do. I’ll be doing another predictions for the winners but the nominees are more fun as they are usually less predictable and have more fun surprises. This year Best Picture seems more certain than ever but other categories like Director, Supporting Actress and Supporting Actor are ones where many including myself might go 3/5. Oppenheimer will probably win anyways. Without further ado, here are my 2024 Oscar Nominations Predictions.
