The delusion to think that Sorkin isn’t winning screenplay in a walk

It’s also going to easily win Editing. It had the actual best editing of the year and also the flashiest, and the Academy always awards the flashiest film (which is why Bohemian Rhapsody unfortunately won).

If Trial is locked for a win in editing, it could pull a surprise nomination in Sound, since Editing winners usually pick up a sound nom.

Nomadland may still win BP without a Screenplay win provided that Chloe Zhao wins for directing.

It can and most likely will win both Directing and Writing. If Academy followed the logic you’re following, Birdman wouldn’t have won Original Screenplay. I’ll believe the ‘Nomadland isn’t winning Screenplay’ narrative when I see it.

But they’ve been going hand in hand because flashiest editing also had flashiest sound design. T7 has flashiest editing but not flashy sound design, me thinks
