The Oscars are just a few days away, and ofcourse, we have our Ballot pool predictions, and we want YOU to weigh in! Hey everyone, thanks so much for tuning back into clevver movies, Im your host tatiaana carrier!

Now, we did an Oscar prediction show when the noms were announced (cut to that footage), but since then, other award shows have come and gone, giving us a little more insight as to who will take home OSCAR! Here is what we think for each major category!
.
Best Picture: Early on, this was a battle between the two films with the most nominations, Hugo and The Artist. With several wins at other big award shows, we think The Artist is the hands down favorite to take the prize.
.
Leading Actor: This will be one of the toughest races to predict for the evening. It's currently a dead heat between George Clooney's role in The Descendant and Jean Dujardin in The Artist. George Clooney is Hollywood's golden boy, but already has an Oscar for his role in 2006's Syriana, so it's for this reason that we are putting our money on Jean Dujardin to win.
.
Leading Actress: This is another heated battle between Viola Davis in The Help and Meryl Streep in The Iron Lady. One of Meryl Streep's biggest negatives is the fact that she's so well respected. She's been nominated a total of 17 times since 1979 and most people think she has a house filled with statues, despite only actually having two wins with her last being in 1983 for Sophie's Choice. Another negative for her is the fact that she was in a movie that has not been as well received as The Help. We think Meryl will have to wait a little bit longer for her third Oscar as this one will be going to Viola Davis.
.
Supporting Actor: Christopher Plummer will win for Beginners. This seems like a no brainer for us.
Supporting Actress: Not much competition in this category either. The award will most likely go to Octavia Spencer for The Help. Though some believe an upset from the likes of The Artist's Berenice Bejo or Melissa McCarthy for Bridesmaid are possibilities if Octavia's votes get split with her co-star Jessica Chastain, we just don't think that will happen. It will be a good night for the ladies of The Help.
.
Animated Feature: Early on, we predicted a win for one of the smaller nominated films - either A Cat In Paris or Chico & Rita. Though this may still happen, we think Rango has gained some momentum the last few weeks and will take home the top prize.
.
Directing: Despite early support for Martin Scorsese to take home his second Best Director Oscar, Michel Hazanavicius' recent Directors Guild of America Award win places him as the frontrunner to take home the Oscar.
.
Adapted Screenplay: With its recent Writers Guild Award, The Descendants should take home this category as a runner-up prize for losing Best Picture.
.
Original Screenplay: Woody Allen most likely won't be showing up to the awards show, so we'll have to wait and see who accepts the prize, because he's definitely getting the win.
.
