2017 Dream Oscar Ballot.


And now it's time to finish my year-end movie retrospective with my 2017 Oscar ballot! Tomorrow, the Academy will announce its nominations and my guess is there will be some significant overlap with the titles below.  This year presented bountiful options of great and diverse films, and thankfully just a few of the typical baity prestige pictures that clog the way. (Although the SAG Awards last night do not give me too much hope that our winners will overlap in many - if any - categories.)

Below are my picks in the majority of Oscar categories (and as always, a few of my own) from all of the movies I watched in the last year. Enjoy!
