Time for my annual post where I predict the Spirit Awards nominees. Be sure to look for the annual follow up post by John where he makes fun of my predictions. The important thing to keep in mind is that there’s no point in trying to make these predictions. There’s no way to be entirely certain which movies are even eligible to be nominated. And though the Spirit Awards have been trending a little toward Oscar-type movies and big stars, they always seem to fit in at least a few films and performances seemingly from out of nowhere. At any rate, here’s what I got. The actual nominees will be announced Tuesday morning by Paula Patton and Octavia Spencer.

So this place is dead, huh? I’d say it’s because we aren’t seeing any movies, but that’s no guarantee we’d actually write about them. Also, we’re not seeing any movies.
