On Thursday morning, 1/16/14, the Academy Awards Nominations will be announced.  The following are my predictions based upon the films I have seen, the things I have read, and past years experience.  I admit I have not seen all the films yet, so some of this is based only on other information I have read about these films.  If I had to rank the movies I have seen so far in a list of my top 5 films of 2013, they would be as follows:
  1. 12 Years A Slave
  2. Gravity
  3. American Hustle
  4. Captain Phillips
  5. The Wolf of Wall Street
