I personally am pulling for Chalamet, but happy for Bucky. But I won't be watching The Apprentice anytime soon. I cannot stand hearing that man's voice at this point. When I see the Cheetoh on TV, I want to pour beer into my ears and pray for deafness. So, I cannot sit through this movie right now lol

Same man, f'ing same.

Been avoiding all cable news like the plague since Election Night.
 
Not that unpredictable but I hope Emilia Perez gets completely shut out. Though it probably won't, its best shots are Best International Feature (COME ON, FLOW AND I'M STILL HERE!) and/or Saldana for Best Supporting Actress. And Best Song I guess, but who even cares this year about that category. :o "Like A Bird" from Sing Sing should win that if there's any sense in the Academy.

Dune: Part Two will probably take Best VFX but I'd love to see Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes win it. I think Dune is taking Best Sound, Wicked will get Best Costume Design and The Substance will take Best Makeup.

I'd be totally happy with Flow or The Wild Robot winning Best Animated Feature.

For Screenplay, I think Conclave is taking Best Adapted and The Brutalist for Best Original.

As for the major awards:

Best Supporting Actor: Fuller's gonna win a much deserved Oscar, and it's all the funnier that he's up against the eldest boy Jeremy Strong. LOL

Best Supporting Actress: I wouldn't be upset if Zoe Saldana won but I think it should go to Felicity Jones. Thankfully Monica Barbaro got in there (for a deserving performance btw) over Selena Gomez.

Best Actress: No surprises here. I'm expecting Demi to win but I'm rooting for Mikey Madison.

Best Actor: Ditto for this except I'd have thought they would have nominated Sebastian Stan for A Different Man instead of The Apprentice. I'm expecting Adrien Brody to win but I'm rooting for Colman Domingo.

Best Picture: I don't think the AI controversy is going to affect The Brutalist as much as people seem to think, so I still have that down for winning but I'd be happy if Anora or Conclave were to win too. Just anything but Emilia Perez. Please. :weeping:
 
Oh ****, Stan got nominated for playing Trump?

I just assumed his nomination was for A Different Man.
Yeah I'm shocked as well... like I said I really liked both movies and he was great in both.
 
Best Actress: No surprises here. I'm expecting Demi to win but I'm rooting for Mikey Madison.

There's also a little voice in the back of my mind saying that Fernanda Torres might pull the upset of all upsets.

Guess we'll see. :sneeze:
 
What a s****y selection of films this year.
It's really not apart from Emilia Perez. I can't speak for I'm Still Here or Nickel Boys since I haven't seen those but everything else besides Emilia Perez is worthy of a Best Picture Nomination.

I'm really shocked Deadpool & Wolverine didn't get a nom for Best Costume and Best VFX.

There I said it.
