Listen, I'm not a betting person, but I do have a pretty good track record when it comes to the Academy Awards. Considering this year's Oscars season has been particularly dramatic (hi Karla Sofía Gascón from Emilia Pérez), I think we all could use some certainty in our lives, you know what I mean?
Below are my predictions for who will win in the major categories this Sunday.
Who Will Win: Considering Anora's win at the Producer's Guild and Director's Guild Awards, I think it's a safe bet at this point.
Who Should Win: I wasn't exactly Wicked's biggest fan, but I can admit it was the movie of the year.
Who Will Win: After Sean Baker's win for Anora at the DGA's, it's pretty clear he's the one to beat.
Who Should Win: Coralie Fargeat's The Substance was one of the most original films of the year and she deserves to be recognized for it.
Who Will Win: After Timothée Chalamet's win at the Screen Actors Guild Awards for A Complete Unknown, my gut tells me he's going to be the one to take home the gold.
Who Should Win: Colman Domingo for Sing Sing. Domingo has delivered back-to-back Oscar-nominated performances (he was nominated for Rustin last year), and his performance in Sing Sing is amazing. A win for Domingo would get more eyes on this important film.
Who Will and Should Win: If Demi Moore doesn't win for The Substance, I'm going to be furious. This is her year, and she deserves it. (Honorable mention to Anora's Mikey Madison and I'm Still Here's Fernanda Torres for also delivering incredible performances. And you know what? I'm still angry Marianne Jean-Baptiste wasn't nominated for Hard Truths.)
Who Will Win: There's no stopping A Real Pain's Kieran Culkin.
Who Should Win: Culkin's Succession brother, Jeremy Strong, deserves the Oscar for his performance as Roy Cohn in The Apprentice.
Who Will Win: Like Culkin, there's no stopping Zoe Saldaña for Emilia Pérez.
Who Should Win: When I watched Wicked, I kept thinking how surprised I was at how good Ariana Grande was in it. In many ways, she was my favorite part of the movie. It's also a real feat to stand out next to the powerhouse that is Cynthia Erivo.
Who do you think will win? Let me know, I'm @HAlanScott on everything. And make sure you stick around early here on Monday a special Oscars edition of For The Culture. Keep scrolling for more entertainment news.

Some stories seem too impossible to be true, and Last Breath is one of them.
The film, based on real events, follows commercial diver Chris Lemons, who was stranded deep underwater with no oxygen, no light and no way to escape. What should have been a routine job turned into a race against time, technology and human endurance.
With Finn Cole, Simu Liu and Woody Harrelson leading the cast, Last Breath delivers a high-stakes, pulse-pounding thriller that takes audiences into the dangerous, isolated world of deep-sea saturation diving.
