As some of you might remember, I recently announced that I’ll be holding a little competition to see who can correctly guess the most nominees for this year’s Academy Awards in the following categories: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Animated Film.  So far quite a few people have submitted their guesses, and one by one I’d like to share with you the predictions my fellow bloggers have made

Our tenth entrant comes from Alexander over at Cinemaniac Reviews.  His predictions were as follows:
