Last night was the night, so let’s see how I did! I am going to break it down into the three categories that I went through every category with; Who Will Win, Who Should Win, Who I Would Have Win?
Who Will Win?: 16-7
Not to bad! I literally matched my record from last year. 16 right of 23 categories. Best guess with Women Talking (2022) and biggest most surprising miss was Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) winning Best Costume Design.
