It's now 2 days before they're announced. Who wants to guess who and what'll get nominated for cinematography, the acting categories, the screenplay categories, Best Director, and Best Picture?

Last minute predictions for the main categories (assuming they do get nominated, blue is who I'm hoping will win, red is who I think will):
Best Picture 1917 Jojo Rabbit Joker Little Women Marriage Story The Irishman Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Parasite I wouldn't rule out 1917 or The Irishman (if the Academy can get over its hatred of Netflix, that is) winning, though. I can't believe that I'm the least confident about Little Women getting nominated, when it's one of the most deserving potential nominees Best Director Bong Joon-ho (Parasite) Martin Scorsese (The Irishman) Quentin Tarantino (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) Sam Mendes (1917) Todd Phillips (Joker) Todd Phillips getting nominated over Greta Gerwig would suck, especially when he'd be nominated in the same category as a director he flagrantly ripped off, but I can easily see it happening Best Actor Adam Driver (Marriage Story) Leonardo DiCaprio (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) Joaquin Phoenix (Joker) Robert De Niro (The Irishman) Taron Egerton (Rocketman) Best Actress Awkwafina (The Farewell) Charlize Theron (Bombshell) Renée Zellweger (Judy) Saoirse Ronan (Little Women) Scarlett Johansson (Marriage Story) I could see Cynthia Erivo taking Awkwafina's token POC slot here though Best Supporting Actor Al Pacino (The Irishman) Brad Pitt (Once Upon a Time in Hollywood) Jamie Foxx (Just Mercy) Joe Pesci (The Irishman) Song Kang-ho (Parasite) Best Supporting Actress Florence Pugh (Little Women) Laura Dern (Marriage Story) Jennifer Lopez (Hustlers) Margot Robbie (Bombshell) Scarlett Johansson (Jojo Rabbit) yes I'm declaring that I want a tie, what of it (although in reality Florence could easily be replaced in this category by Nicole Kidman for Bombshell, so I'm not holding my breath) Best Original Screenplay 1917 Knives Out Marriage Story Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Parasite Best Adapted Screenplay A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood The Irishman Jojo Rabbit Joker Little Women Best International Film Atlantics Honeyland Les Misérables Pain and Glory Parasite Best Animated Feature Frozen II How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World I Lost My Body Missing Link Toy Story 4 Last edited by MB.; 13-01-2020 at 01:00 AM. |

Last minutes predictions as well, I cba to do them all so I'll do the main six
Best Picture Once Upon A Time In Hollywood Parasite The Irishman Marriage Story Jojo Rabbit Joker Little Women Ford V Ferrari/Le Mans 66 (Hoping Knives Out makes the cut, the less said about Joker the better) Best Director Bong Joon Ho Greta Gerwig Martin Scorsese Sam Mendes Quentin Taratino (Olivia Wilde deserves better) Best Actress Scarlett Johanson - Marriage Story Renee Zellweger - Judy Saoirse Ronan - Little Women Cynthia Erivo - Harriet Charlize Theron - Bombshell (Ronan might just be wishful thinking, could easily replace with Awkwafina) Best Actor Adam Driver - Marriage Story Joaquin Phoenix - That ****ing clown movie Leonardo Di Caprio - OUATIH Taron Egerton - Rocketman Antonio Banderas - Pain & Glory (Could see Banderas being snubbed for Jonathan Pryce, wouldn't be surprised if George McKay ended up nominated based on the 1917 hype) Best Supporting Actress Laura Dern - Marriage Story Margot Robbie - Bombshell Scarlett Johansson - Jojo Rabbit Florence Pugh - Little Women Annette Benning - The Report (Yes I want J-Lo nominated, but considering she's set to be the sole nom I doubt the film has the momentum) Best Supporting Actor Brad Pitt - OUATIH Al Pacino - The Irishman Joe Pesci - The Irishman Tom Hanks - A Beautiful Day Antony Hopkins - The Two Popes (Kinda a weak category, could see the Parasite hype lead to Song Kang Ho be nominated depending on how much support there is for the Two Popes) Expecting 1917/Joker () dominating the awards |

All I'm expecting is OUATIH to sweep the Oscars, because there's nothing that Hollywood and particularly The Oscars loves more than a film actually about the industry/"Hollywood" culture itself (i.e. like "La La Land" did).
I'm just really rooting for Phoenix to get Best Actor above all else though. Last edited by LaLaLand; 13-01-2020 at 01:14 AM. |

Best Original Score
Joker (Hildur Guonadottir) 1917 (Thomas Newman) Marriage Story (Randy Newman) Little Women (Alexandre Desplat) Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (John Williams) Winner Prediction: Joker Spider-Man: Far from Home will be overlooked for Original Score, in my opinion. Best Visual Effects The Lion King The Irishman 1917 Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Avengers: Endgame Winner Prediction: The Lion King Ad Astra should be nominated here though, but it didn't get enough attention.

Picture - Marriage Story Director - Sam Mendes Actor - Joaquin Phoenix Actress - Renee Zellweger Supporting Actor - Brad Pitt Supporting Actress - Florence Pugh

Taron Egerton/J-Lo/Ana De Armas/Olivia Wilde/Glasgow (No Place) all deserved better

Joker for Directing and Screenplay is just embarrassing

The all-white Supporting Actor category is a disaster as well

I'm kinda ignorant of films until like a year after they come out, so I don't know of any candidates for supporting actor that'd be a change from #whiteblokes... usually there's a big hype about someone who's a POC but I haven't heard of any this year.

Enjoy the nominations I hope they make you happy. Dear lord, what a sad little life Joker. Ruined my night completely so you could have the nominations and I hope now you can spend them on lessons in grace and decorum. Because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on. Last edited by MB.; 13-01-2020 at 01:10 PM. |

Song Kang-ho for Parasite was considered a strong possibility, as was Jamie Foxx for Just Mercy

Seems to just be a "try and get all the legends to attend" event this year. I'm a bit shocked Willem Defoe couldn't get a nomination... all clips I've seen of the Lighthouse look incredible. Like I'm sure Tom Hanks could've sat one season out.

Also a shame that the only WOC of colour nominated for acting was playing a slave, Awkwafina and Lupita N'yongo were robbed

I'm happy for Joker, it's one of those films I don't think I could watch again but it's an excellent and challenging film.
I haven't seen all the nominations yet though but from the bits I've seen, it seems a bit lopsided for the most part when it comes to other films, actors and directors getting snubbed. Last edited by Tom4784; 13-01-2020 at 02:04 PM. |

Just noticed Awkwafina and Taron Egerton don't have nominations either. Bizarre.

Glad Joker is leading the nominations. A masterpiece of a film.
