How My Oscar Picks Went Over

I got 83/105 in my picks posted here. That's 79% which is near my 80% score I usually get. I did make a few changes on leaderboard app (Award Expert) where I got 85/105 and a 81% score after writing and publishing this article, rethinking my own thoughts. I'll have a more detailed article about who I think will win later. We still have Critics Choice, SAG, BAFTA, DGA, and a WGA awards show to get through to have a better idea. I will say, I'm leaning toward A Complete Unknown winning Best Picture, but I'll explain that later.  

​Here's how I did:
