If Jason Segel wins I’ll be ecstatic, but if he gets beaten by Abraham Attah, I wouldn’t be too upset (they are my 2 favourite performances of the year). Hoping for Beasts of No Nation for Best Feature, Paul Dano for Supporting Actor, and The End of the Tour for Screenplay. Not fussed about the rest. I’m predicting Spotlight for Feature, Haynes, Segel, Larson, Elba, Nixon, Anomalisa for Screenplay, Diary of a Teenage Girl for First Feature, Room for 1st Screenplay, Spotlight for Editing.

Spotlight is the best picture contender in the category and is directed by a filmmaker that is very well respected in the film industry.
The only reason I am apprehensive about predicting it is that looking through the best picture winners at the Indie Spirits the winner is always distributed by a major company (mostly Fox Searchlight and Weinstein). Even last year Birdman beat Boyhood. No matter what happened at the Oscars I was expecting Boyhood to win because it evoked the essence of the indie spirit more than any other major contender in recent years.
Out of the five nominees Carol is released by The Weinstein Company and Anomolisa is distributed by Paramount. I’m going out on a limb and predicting Carol to win.
