I pretty much agree with what’s said here (I haven’t really been able to keep up with “maybe’s” in these categories, especially international), but I would add “Only the Young” from Miss Americana and Miss Americana for my predictions.

I also don’t know many of the shorts being submit, but I know that Netflix has some. They have 3 documentary and 3 animated, my assumption is at least one if not more of the documentary make it (which I haven’t personally seen), and at least 2 of the 3 animated shorts (Canvas, which I haven’t seen, and If Anything Happens I Love You, which I can see making the shortlist), but at least one of them at the very least.

Promising Young Woman and Pieces of a Woman just got disqualified from Original Score.
The songs from Mank and Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom are no longer eligible either.
