I need Black Panther to win costume design, but Crazy Rich Asians is likely going to be at its heels.
ReplyDeleteInfinity War should win visual effects too because LOOK AT THAT MOVIE. lol
I haven't seen Crazy Rich Asians yet, but that would be a cool nom. And Black Panther for the win would be an inspired pick. I wonder about one of the Mary films taking it though.
DeleteI'm rooting for Annihilation in VFX, even if it's more of an underdog than Ex Machina was.
Dang no Hereditary? Awww
ReplyDeleteI don't see it, but maybe?
DeleteI do not know if it's just me or if everyone else experiencing problems with your blog.
ReplyDeleteIt appears as though some of the text on your posts
are running off the screen. Can someone else please comment and
let me know if this is happening to them too?
This might be a issue with my web browser because I've had this happen previously.
Appreciate it
Sorry, I've no idea what the problem is. :/
DeleteNice predictions Josh! My interest in watching that line-up is pretty limited though I'll watch the oscars show. Hopefully If Beale Street Could Talk is another strong effort from Jenkins.
ReplyDeleteBest Actress is STACKED, according to the buzz there are 10+ contenders! Do you think Elsie Fisher (Eighth Grade) (it looks like it has the potential to be a middle-school Lady Bird) and Carey Mulligan (Wildlife) stand a chance of noms?
Thanks Chris! I'm looking forward to most of these, especially The Favourite, First Man, and If Beale Street Could Talk.
DeleteI don't see Fisher or Mulligan in the race, unfortunately. In fact, I'm skeptical on Eighth Grade's chances to get a screenplay nom. But I haven't seen it yet, so I might feel differently later.
Nice work! I HOPE Widows has a better showing, but we shall see. I'm interested to see how Black Panther fares. They're going to pump so much money into that film's Oscar campaign.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Black Panther is my favorite MCU film, so I'm hoping it fares well. I think Widows could underperform, but I hope I'm wrong.
