All of these directors would make great choices for a best director oscar in my opinion. Who do you think will end up getting it first?

That’s a silly answer. One of them is bound to at some point.

The only reason I didn’t pick Taratino is because 2022 has a lot of these guys taking their shot. My gut says Lanthimous atm but we’ll have to see how each of their movies pan out.

Lanthimos will win when he makes a movie which more people can digest. While I liked both the favourite and lobster, both were difficult to digest for a lot of people.

I say PTA but don’t quote me on this. My favorite is probably Lanthimos though.

I’m disappointed. I had a huge Villeneuve vs. Nolan showdown building in my head, with intolerable fan arguments that are nonetheless kinda fun to watch from the outside, but Oppenheimer comes out a year before Dune 2.

Oh, nice, I hadn’t seen the October release date for D2. I was working off early memories of Denis saying it might not come out until 2024, made right after the sequel confirmation, which had my Dune-loving friends sighing over how they didn’t film them back to back.

Yay, glad I just missed the updated date.

(This year)2022:I don’t think that Paul Thomas Anderson will win,Campion and Spielberg are the clearly frontrunners with maybe Branagh.

2023:Lathimos and Daren might have a chance but It will depend on how public friendly their movies are and I don’t see them winning.I haven’t read The killer but is the type of film that Fincher fits so maybe???Wes Anderson seems the less likely of the four.

2024:this will be an interesting year because of Dune part 2 and Oppenheimer.I don’t see Denis wining because anyone who has read Dune can tell that the end is bad(anticlimatic,cold and the story still feels unfinished so they might have to make a film of the next book and with the third film Denis might win).This may be an unpopular opinion but I think that Oppenheimer fits Nolan perfectly(the book is really interesting)and it seems more likely to get acting nominations(Cillian,Emily,FlorencePugh…)than anything he has ever done so It easily his biggest chance to win an oscar since Dunkirk.

With Tarantino I can see him winning with his last film but we don’t yet when he will realease it.

Nolan and Villeneuve are the only ones named here who seem to have an upcoming film that I can imagine taking them to the Oscars stage.

FYC:

"The Good Fight" and "The Other Two" in all categories.

Imagine the showdown if Taratino releases his final flim during the same year that Openheimer is released.

Nolan, Fincher and Villeneuve will win.

Tarantino is respected but i don’t see him winning Director, a third screenplay Oscar seems more likely.

Anderson, McDonagh, PTA and Lanthimous  will win for Screenplay. Peele is someone i see getting another screenplay nomination than director.

Aronofsky seems to be a one time thing after Black Swan. i’m not expecting him to be nominated ever again.
