Kev Predicts 2018 Guild Awards
That's right; it's another awards prediction article. (Expect a couple more for the Film Independent Spirit Awards and the Academy awards as well). This time around I'm predicting the results of the various Guild Awards ceremonies which includes the Writers Guild, the Producers Guild, the Directors Guild, and the Screen Actors Guild. In this article I'll be predicting all of the awards these guilds hand out for narrative films. This means you will not see any predictions for documentary films because, quite frankly, I haven't had a chance to see any of the documentary frontrunners quite yet. I'm not going to lie; these awards are going to be the hardest to predict. Some of the categories have 10+ films nominated and I have to predict the ONE film that's going to win? Yeah, it's not going to be easy, but here we go anyway.
