Reposted on: 10.1.26 0116.41 | I know they are not due to be released for two weeks or so, but I think we have a chance for something different this year.
Usually, I find the Oscar films pretty boring or at the least, less interesting and surely less fun than the other films in a given year.
But this year, I think we get Black Panther and I think we get Bohemian Rhapsody - two of my favorite pics of the year
I think Star is Born - but I wasn't a fan, same for A Quiet Place.
What about BlacKkKlansman?? what a strange film - but Spike Lee often gets nominated
Boring films that may be nominated: Eigth Grade. (I turned it off). First Man (melodramatic). First Reformed (the same)
The winner will be Vice though
My favorite movie, The Mule, will not be nominated. | Promote this thread! |             | Doc_whiskey

Reposted on: 11.1.26 0654.34 | This was the year they almost had the Best Popular Film category, and I think that will influence the nominations. Best Picture was already inflated a few years back to include the blockbusters. Panther will get that slot. A Quiet Place probably.
After Shape of Water won, I feel like any well-produced film can win.

Reposted on: 11.1.26 1059.37 | | I liked A Star is Born very much; I reckon it gets nominated for Best Picture, Best Lead Actor, and Best Lead Actress. I'd like to see it win at least one of those categories. My guess would be Lead Actress. Lady Gaga was amazing. | Matt Tracker

I think Glenn Close gets the career-appreciation Best Actress Oscar this year. Long deserved too. | Mr Heel II

Don't count out Dianne Weist for a supporting actress nomination, though. |
