It seems to be very much a dialogue driven movie, and I’d say only CMBYN and Molly’s Game are looking very strong. Mud bound could make it if the Academy gets over it’s anti-Netflix bias. Orginal Screenplay seems like it’s gonna be a bloodbath this year. Three Billboards is probably the only one I can say is safely in. Get Out, Lady Bird, Big Sick, Shape of Water, Phantom Thread, Darkest Hour, and The Post are fighting for second, honestly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Call Me by Your Name seems like the strong frontrunner for Adapted. That'll be its big reward. 6 hours ago, spaghetti! said: Orginal Screenplay seems like it’s gonna be a bloodbath this year. Three Billboards is probably the only one I can say is safely in.

I guess my current five would be: Three Billboards Lady Bird Get Out Darkest Hour The Big Sick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 New predictions: Best Original: The Big Sick Get Out Lady Bird The Post Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (yep, predicting a Shape of Water snub here. Feel like that movie is weakening in general) Best Adapted: Blade Runner 2049 Call Me by Your Name The Disaster Artist Molly's Game Mudbound (shoot this category) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLAM! Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Mudbound will be a good film, but I still think the Netflix bias gets to it no matter how bad the Adapted Screenplay category is this year. With Mudbound out of the way, we have only three surefire nominees: Call Me By Your Name, Molly's Game, and The Disaster Artist. I think Stronger depends on how much buzz Gyllenhaal and Maslany manage to keep. I think the kind of Academy that chooses to recognize at least Gyllenhaal will be the kind of Academy that chooses to recognize the film's screenplay. Blade Runner has only dipped because its box office wasn't so hot; otherwise it'd be pick 2 or 3 on everyone's list. The script is still fabulous no matter how much money it makes, and the voters might see that. I'm not counting out Victoria & Abdul just yet. That's the type of quiet film that just might surge ahead on the strength of the box office and the appeal to older voters. I'm not counting out Wonder Woman either. That script is legitimate, with love and care displayed throughout. The film will have a lot of fans cheering for the Academy to nominate it, and if they don't want to go all the way with Picture or Director, then Adapted Screenplay is their best chance. But here's what I'm thinking. Blade Runner 2049 Call Me By Your Name The Disaster Artist Molly's Game Stronger It might be a bad category, but I think that makes it a fun category to look at.

CoolioD1 Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 shame IFC couldn't get death of stalin a US release date this year. feel like it would've been an easy adapted nod. hopefully it can play the long game next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 With Wonder lighting up the box office and getting really good reviews, there's a good chance it could sneak into the Adapted category now given how empty it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it's always a possibility but it's difficult when there are already 8 movies or so gunning for a slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
