Who SHOULD Be Nominated for and Winning Oscars

Oscar Sunday is a short three days away and the Academy has had their say.  Some voted for environmental purposes, some voted for friends, many voted for careers, and a slim representation of the 5% slipped in their votes.  Of course, I disagree with most of the choices.  My stake in Hollywood is as minimal as can be, guaranteeing nominees delegated their position not because of a favor owed or chance to increase my economic outlook.  Winner Italicized.
