Best Picture predictions-2017!

Recommended Posts



EDIT: Wrong thread for Best Actor talk. I'll be very happy with a Shape of Water win if it happens, how often do you see a fairy tale revolving around a monster romance win Oscars?

To be fair....he’s not wrong about The Revenant. Something something broken clock.

Holy shit! It happened! A fantasy won again! I didn't watch cause I expected 3B to win but this is sure a nice surprise. And 3 Amigos all have Oscars now. :bravo:

 

Get Out was my winner choice but considering 3B domination I'm OK with anything that beat it and fantasy/genre doing so even more.

this feels like a big deal for genre filmmaking. ROTK won because it was such a huge phenomenon and i always thought it was only under those undeniable circumstances that a fantasy film would be able to win but SOW wasn't that it was just a good mid-budget movie. so it normalizes it in the awards race more.

yep, because if 1000+ mediocre/decent but unspectacular dramas can win, a mediocre/decent genre movie should too. 

 

That said, BP is getting a nom next year, it's a done deal. :)

It wasn't even a mid-budget film at 19M :jeb!:
