AND THEN THE NOMINATIONS ARE IN...JENG JENG JENGGG!

My prediction is a little off. This is the official nomination list. I got shot down with my Best Actor and Actress - Hati Malaya cast was not nominated at all for this category.
What is also surprising is that two highly educated directors got left out of the Best Director category - Associate Professor (since 2001) Razak Mahideen and Dr Annuar Nur Arai.
I coloured my new predictions in red. Please note that this prediction is not based on merit - not my CHOICE - but instead who I think the jury will be selecting.

2. Amrul Hisham - Anak
3. Mohd Asrah Akis - Wayang
4. Mohd Asrah Afif - Wayang

1. Hans Isaac - Cuci
2. M.Subash - Pensil

So Hati Malaya will still win the most awards with Anak Halal being its only serious competitor. However, Grand Brilliance might push all out to make sure its Sepi wins more than just a couple that night. We shall see. Rank outsiders - Wayang and KMBM.
