Those are patently false, and I have no idea why people keep listening to those online pundits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who else has a shot? Roman J. Israel is likely gonna be Denzel's Concussion. And then there is Mary J. Blige and Jason Mitchell, who face an uphill battle with their film being from Netflix. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a bit overdue for a nomination, and the support in the industry is definitely there as evident by his SAG win a couple years ago.

I really don't think Elba is anywhere close to a sure thing, especially when Chastain isn't in Best Actress and Molly's Game is apparently pretty much her vehicle.

The Last Jedi shouldn't be too late. I think they did the same thing last time with The Force Awakens, where they viewed FYC posts as potentially spoilerific. If they, out of the the blue, said "please consider Mark Hamill for Best Supporting Actor", people would expect more out of the performance; so I think the FYC could possibly take certain groups of people out of the film when they try to watch it. I hope it isn't too late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I'm starting to feel like Three Billboards is the closest thing we have to a Best Picture frontrunner tbh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came here to post that same thought. You can really feel the momentum and consensus building for it. It'll very likely win Screenplay, with Frances having a great shot to win herself. I would still guess Nolan for Director, but I continue to have difficulty seeing it win Picture. Shape of Water will be well-liked; I just have hefty doubts about a genre film like that going all the way.

filmlover Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Yeah, I feel like Rockwell is gonna end the Supporting Actor frontrunner. Can't really see either of the Call Me by Your Name men going all the way and after seeing the movie, I really don't think Dafoe is winning unless he ends up the critical favorite by a wide margin and starts winning everything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not convinced both CMBYN actors are getting in yet. I feel if any movie gets 2 supporting actor nominations, it'll be Shape of Water. Hammer is gaining traction, so I wonder if he could get in and Stuhlbarg gets snubbed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm honestly feeling Jenkins a lot more than Shannon tbh. Shannon's getting solid reviews but nothing Earth-shattering, plus this kind of villain role isn't much of a stretch for him. And he just got nominated again last year after barely missing the year before, meaning they'll likely go for some fresh faces. Jenkins, on the other hand, is a respected veteran whose previous nomination came almost a decade ago (for a tiny movie from April released by a now-dead studio, no less), so there's definitely a much clearer path for him. Of course, the CMBYN actors have their work cut out too. It's been 26 years since the last time a movie got double nominations in this category (Bugsy). That said, CMBYN has the best argument for double nominations here of any film since: Hammer is basically a co-lead who can easily ride Chalamet's coattails to a nomination (plus he's really campaigning so far), while Stuhlbarg is the respected actor with the film's most acclaimed moment of acting who also happens to have potentially three films in the running for Best Picture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It IS the type of role the Academy likes nominated though; from what reviews say, Jenkins doesn't have a flashy role.
