Who I Would've Nominated - 2019 Edition


Welcome to the 6th edition of my year-end personal Oscars nominations! The previous 5 years I used this space to compare how my personal nominations matched up with the Academy's nominations, but since this year the awards season has been shortened by 3 weeks, I'm not gonna waste any time with that and I'm gonna jump straight to the nominations.

As always, you'll only see 20 of the 24 Oscars categories here since I never get to see the Live-Action, Documentary, or Animated Shorts, plus I also don't include my Best Picture nominations because I don't want to spoil my ranking of the Top 10 Movies of the year, which I'll be posting on Oscars Sunday.
