Oscars: My Predictions vs. Winners

Last night, ABC aired the 84th Annual Academy Awards. And out of the 24 categories in which awards were handed out, I only missed six. So I got 75% correct predictions this time around (pretty much the same as the Golden Globes and only a few lower than last year's Oscars).
