(I was thinking Fences was a true story for some reason, but it isn't) Though in 2007 and 2008 it was thought no real life winner would happen but they did. (Really hope to see a year where all Americans win acting again! Which I thought was going to happen last year, has not happened since 1997) Actress is the only real spoiler here. Actor is between Affleck and Washington Supporting Actor is ATJ, Ali or Bridges Supporting Actress is Davis Actress is the only one that might spin non-fiction with Portman. But I think Stone is taking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Ryan Reynolds sneaking in would be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 One performance that was so sadly overlooked this year, because it was too early in the year, was Kevin Costner in Criminal. Probably the best male performance of the year for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 The reviews for The Founder give the impression that Keaton definitely would've been our fifth nominee had Weinstein not completely dumped the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezen Baklattan Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I'd say Gosling can win this now. If the sexual harassment stuff doesn't get to him, Affleck's performance may not be fully to the taste of the academy. Could see another Keaton/Redmayne situation with this.

If Affleck wins, it's his to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely a race now. will probably win the BAFTA too , Denzel isn't even nominated there this SAG was more like " hey this great actor has like 500 awards and not a single one from us so let's give him this one because we don't know if he will be as good as this year with not many close performances by other actors in the near future " , the oscar can still go his way but the chances are weak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valonqar Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Denzel is winning. Hammy performance vs subtle = AMPAS always goes for ham. Casey has a controversy that isn't going away. Sure, BAFTA is an advantage but now that he's vulnerable due to Denzel win, we'll likely hear more and more about his sex offense. Smear campaign is on the way.
