Here's a look at what films are likely to take home Oscars in the animated and live action short categories.
The stars turned out dressed in their finest for the 87th Academy Awards. And, as is the case with the nominees, some were winners and others were not.
"Birdman" was the top winner at the 2015 Academy Awards, winning best picture and best director. "The Grand Budapest Hotel" and "Whiplash" also earned multiple awards.
An Oscar pool is an Oscar pool, and it's not usually the big, headlining categories that count so much as the little, technical, specialty, "Birdman isn't nominated here" categories. Those are the categories where making uneducated guesses will throw a big, gold-plated wrench into your plans to win that $7 prize at your Academy Awards party of choice.
Now that the Super Bowl is behind us, let's talk about a different type of spectacle, The Oscars.

Barkhad Abdi, the Somali immigrant who was a Twin Cities limo driver before playing a pirate in "Captain Phillips," won an award at the British Academy Awards over the weekend. Abdi was named best supporting actor, edging Michael Fassbender in "12 Years a Slave" and Bradley Cooper in "American Hustle."
For the last few years, I've pointed out that winning your Oscar pool in some ways depends on being smart about your selections in the short film categories.
