It's THE important movie of the year going against a fantasy (Del Toro), horror (Aronofsky) and sci fi (Payne) among other things. Boxoffice won't matter. Game is over. poeple can deny this fact all they want cause having the oscar race wrapped up so early is boring but that's what it is. It's won.

You can screen cap it and post it come February or March 2018 (I'm not watching Oscars for years so I'm not sure of dates but it;s usually that time). Also, why would anyone troll about predicting a safe bet? Did not even needed to wait February ? Tell you the same thing I said to you then, you know there is many way this thing does not win and that why you didn't place a large bet on it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Yeah anyone who proclaims that something is locked to win Picture with months to go isn't worth listening to. Especially after La La Land. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year, I hope sci fi/fantasy/horror would win. So I tend to predict movies that I don't care about so that I don't jinx movies that I want to win.

WrathOfHan Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Having just seen Three Billboards, I don't think it's locked to win. I loved the hell out of it and could definitely see it winning thanks to its themes, but it doesn't immediately feel like a BP winner. They need to push the movie's themes hard for it to be in contention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it still has a chance. A miniscule chance, but a chance nonetheless. Edited November 24, 2017 by slambros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Phantom Thread has screened and even though it is under tight embargo what leaks out makes it seem very interesting (go figure, a PTA/Day Lewis collab is good). Certainly don't doubt DDL is getting a nomination at this point. Best Actor has me thinking Oldman, DDL, and Timothee are safe, but the last four spots are a total toss up between Gyllenhaal, Hanks, Franco, and Kaluuya. I can see any combination, and even could see Garfield/Denzel contending for their less loved movies. I think Gyllenhaal and Franco, for now.

There is zero chance Andrew Garfield is happening; I would put Renner, McAvoy, and Pattinson before him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiseau presenting needs to happen, and not for a small category either. Give him something like Cinematography or Screenplay if they're really feeling risky.

But he was awful in Hacksaw Ridge and they gave him a nom, and this is some baity shit. No way McAvoy or Renner gets in. I forgot about Patz, I could see it. I'm rooting for Franco, Kayuula, Blige, and Mitchell. And Ronan/McDormand but they're already frontrunners anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WrathOfHan Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I don't think Mary J. Blige is getting nominated. She's very good in the movie, but it's a really subdued role. Plus, y'know, there's the whole Netflix thing. If Mudbound was from any other studio, I'd have Jason Mitchell in my predictions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 i thought the guy who played jason mitchell's dad was better than mitchell. he was my favourite performance in that movie. i know no shot since no ones rolling out a campaign for him but that guy ruled. plus i thought carey mulligan was better than blige. i guess they're both supporting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I'm rooting for Mitchell in part because I think he got robbed for Straight Outta Compton. And I just love Mary in that movie and as an artist, nothing to front on there. Mudbound should get serious SAG ensemble consideration in general. Considering they gave it to Elba for a Netflix movie, not ruling it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
