BestPicturePlutoNash Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Willem Dafoe, Poor Things Robert De Niro, Killers of Flower Moon Brad Pitt, Babylon Jesse Plemons, Killers of Flower Moon Ke Huy Quan, Everything Everywhere Pitt is in, but is he lead? I suppose they keep him Supporting. I'm betting on Dafoe. It's going to be a showy Lanthimos film from Searchlight and he's playing Dr. Frankenstein. The overdue buzz will kick in for him, but he's also somebody who might be Leading. Everything Everywhere is the sensation of the year and Quan is the second largest role delivering a layered and emotional performance. Finally, I have double Flower Moon over Dano in Fabelmans. Double noms have become common and both Plemons and DeNiro have strong roles in a Scorsese film ALT: Don Cheadle, White Noise Paul Dano, The Fabelmans Zen McGrath, The Son Harry Styles, Don't Worry Darling Michael Ward, Empire of Light Ben Whishaw, Women Talking Someone from Thirteen Lives (Viggo/Farrell/Edgerton) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Anthony Hopkins was singled out for praise in every Armageddon Time review I read and given the character type (wise, beloved, morally upstanding Grandpa) it shouldn't take much for him to get another nod.

Depends on where Focus dates it. Assume it's going to either November or December since so far the only thing they have dated for the fourth quarter is Tar (October 7).

BestPicturePlutoNash Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 It's still a James Gray film and he's never had a single nomination for his movies except Ad Astra making Sound Mixing It's Focus and Hopkins is a legend but it'll be a tough sell. 74 Metacritic and 89% Rotten Tomatoes with 7.0 average is strong but not unanimous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Hopkins also has The Son, a much more Academy friendly film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 Updated predictions: Paul Dano, The Fabelmans Brendan Gleeson, The Banshees of Inisherin Barry Keoghan, The Banshees of Inisherin Brad Pitt, Babylon Ke Huy Quan, Everything Everywhere All at Once I think this is it tbh. Judd Hirsch probably needed more scenes to be a stronger contender. Ben Whishaw's in a movie that seems to be getting more weak as a contender each day and is even seeing its much-buzzed actress contenders getting snubbed. Eddie Redmayne strikes me as a potential Globe and (if nominated there) SAG nominee that misses on nomination morning. And I thought for a moment that Hanks would've been a coattail nomination behind Butler for a movie that's looking to be a top contender, but if he couldn't happen at the Globes of all places... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestPicturePlutoNash Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Final predictions: 1. Ke Huy Quan, Everything Everywhere All At Once 2. Brendan Gleeson, The Banshees of Inisherin 3. Barry Keoghan, The Banshees of Inisherin 4. Paul Dano, The Fabelmans 5. Eddie Redmayne, The Good Nurse ALT: Brad Pitt, Babylon First 3 are set. Fabelmans flopped this award season. I question its ability to get 2 noms here, especially when both contenders have been weak. Hirsch has received more buzz, is a veteran and has a showstopping sequence but it's still a small role. Dano is more subtle but it's a larger role and he's due for a nomination. Last spot is wacky. Eddie Redmayne is the ideal Oscar snub but he has truly made everything while his competition flopped such as Brad Pitt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted January 19, 2023 Author Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) I think I'm gonna go with Dano/Gleeson/Keoghan/Pitt/Quan with Redmayne as the surprise snub. Babylon is obviously This Had Oscar Buzz City ala Nine, but that still managed to get Cruz an afterglow nomination and Pitt makes the most sense here (and is clearly in no danger of getting cancelled).

BestPicturePlutoNash Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Penelope Cruz still made SAG for Nine. Pitt missed SAG despite the Ensemble nomination as well as the BAFTA. But I wouldn't be surprised if he did make it.. just too many flops and misses for me to predict it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree again. Pitt in that fifth slot for me too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
