Ezen Baklattan Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Could LOST CITY OF Z make a resurgence and get an Adapted Screenplay nod? There’s only three surefire noms in the category so far, and this could show up if BST makes a decent campaign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably their #2 now behind The Big Sick (after Last Flag Flying and Wonder Wheel semi-faltered). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I can’t see it go further than Adapted Screenplay and Cinematography (maybe costume design) but I think it can show up here if the category is this weak. 1 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. Yeah, Coco's chances are very slim. Reviews while strong aren't exactly Inside Out level of praise either. Edited November 25, 2017 by Fancyarcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 inside out was also in a year of i guess slimmer pickings for the category. only 2/5 original screenplay nominees that year were picture nominees but this year it'll probably be all five.

Keep in mind though that being ineligible doesn't automatically shut scripts out of the Oscar race. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, there's only three surefire selections, but there's also a bevy of interesting choices they could make for the other two nominees here.

RichWS Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I ain't buying Three Billboards as a winner. Not saying it doesn't have a shot and I'll admit my own feelings are probably clouding my judgment, but I think it's gonna be too divisive to win anything. It's Gerwig's to lose. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not buying Lady Bird as a BP winner because I don't have Gerwig winning either of her categories. It absolutely needs to win here to win BP.

It absolutely needs to win here to win BP. I totally agree it needs to win here to win BP. I think it's the current front-runner for BP but we know that can change next week. I'd say it's firmly in front for Screenplay and Supporting Actress at the moment. Sofia Coppola winning here comes to mind. They wanted to reward her and that'll likely be the case for Gerwig. If she gets a Director snub, her chances will only increase in my mind. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
