    That Frances stat is even more impressive when you realize she’s only the seventh performer ever to be nominated across five different decades, after Laurence Olivier, Katharine Hepburn, Paul Newman, Michael Caine, Jack Nicholson, and Meryl Streep

    This is also the first time ever that all five Original Screenplay nominees are also nominated for Best Picture

    Both stats hold this year! With Andra Day and Vanessa Kirby as the only nominations for their respective films, and with The White Tiger only being nominated for its screenplay, there remains only 6 years with no lone acting nominees, and we enter our 20th consecutive year of having at least one lone screenplay nominee!

    The costume design and production design wins for Alice in Wonderland – a truly visually repulsive movie – that pretty much won for “most” rather than “best”

    Two names that I think both could easily be the subject of a “they’ve never been nominated but everyone in Hollywood loves them” narrative in the right (probably Supporting) roles would be John Goodman and Kirsten Dunst. I’m interested in what Dunst could bring to the new Jane Campion next year, and Goodman is a pretty consistent presence so I wouldn’t be surprised if either or both of them bag it on their first go.

    Maybe I’m a fool, but I think Glenn Close is getting a nomination still. Not likely for a win, but a nomination is entirely possible at this point – I’ll wait to see how the Globes/SAG land with her, but I think that’s one piece of bait that the voters are going to fall for even if the rest of the film sinks. The other four nominees seem fairly strong for now, but any of my next four contenders (but probably only one of the top two) could usurp Close if I’m wrong (which I dearly hope I am). Not sure if Ronan is quite as strong as her inclusion in the top ten suggests, but I’m struggling to find anyone else to take her place. Collette? Kidman? Manville? Swankie? Possible, but for now I’m keeping Saoirse in that last slot. Here’s where I’m at for now:

    1. Amanda Seyfried, Mank
    2. Ellen Burstyn, Pieces of a Woman
    3. Olivia Colman, The Father
    4. Youn Yuh-jung, Minari
    5. Glenn Close, Hillbilly Elegy

    6. Maria Bakalova, Borat Subsequent Moviefilm
    7. Helena Zengel, News of the World
    8. Candice Bergen, Let Them All Talk
    9. Jodie Foster, The Mauritanian
    10. Saoirse Ronan, Ammonite

    Unranked Contenders:

    • Toni Collette, I’m Thinking of Ending Things
      Lily Collins, Mank
      Olivia Cooke, Sound of Metal
      Dominique Fishback, Judas and the Black Messiah
      Nicole Kidman, The Prom
      Natasha Lyonne, The United States vs. Billie Holiday
      Valerie Mahaffey, French Exit
      Lesley Manville, Let Him Go
      Da’Vine Joy Randolph, The United States vs. Billie Holiday
      Swankie, Nomadland
      Olivia Williams, The Father
      Debra Winger, Kajillionaire

    I have no idea what to think of this category at this point, as there’s a rotating list of about 12-15 names that all simultaneously seem like shoo-ins and long shots, with very few I would feel comfortable predicting as anywhere close to a sure bet, unlike the other three acting categories. Kaluuya, Odom Jr., and Cohen all seem plausible, but I could just as easily see the race going forward and leaving any one of them off. From there, my last two slots are constantly switching out Boseman, Murray, Tucci, Rylance, Abdul-Mateen, even Strathairn and Dance who haven’t been getting quite as much love but are veterans in major contenders that could still ride that wave. I would love to see this critics’ love for Paul Raci carrying over to the Oscars, and he could absolutely do it, but I’m feeling very wary that a performance so subtle from a non-star could translate beyond critics. Domingo and Turman are both great, and would make my own lineup at the moment, but I’m afraid they might be overshadowed by their flashier costars. Here’s where I’m at now:

    1. Daniel Kaluuya, Judas and the Black Messiah
    2. Leslie Odom, Jr., One Night in Miami…
    3. Sacha Baron Cohen, The Trial of the Chicago 7
    4. Chadwick Boseman, Da 5 Bloods
    5. Bill Murray, On the Rocks

    6. Mark Rylance, The Trial of the Chicago 7
    7. Stanley Tucci, Supernova
    8. Paul Raci, Sound of Metal
    9. David Strathairn, Nomadland
    10. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, The Trial of the Chicago 7

    Unranked Contenders:

    • Tom Burke, Mank
      Charles Dance, Mank
      Colman Domingo, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom
      Richard E. Grant, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie
      Lucas Hedges, French Exit
      Aldis Hodge, One Night in Miami…
      Frank Langella, The Trial of the Chicago 7
      Orion Lee, First Cow
      Jonathan Majors, Da 5 Bloods
      Tom Pelphrey, Mank
      Eddie Redmayne, The Trial of the Chicago 7
      Glynn Turman, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom

    As with everyone else’s thoughts on this category, the top three are solid in terms of a nomination though I go back and forth on where I think the narrative will run for the win, and the last two slots are up in the air. Ultimately I think Meryl is always a safe bet, especially in a movie where she sings, dances, and cries – plus, she hasn’t been nominated for two years in a row, so the thirst for her is going to come back in full. Sophia’s chances are hurt by Italy not submitting her film, but I think that her legendary status (see: the initial trailer for the film) as well as the Diane Warren song are both going to keep the film in the conversation in ways that otherwise it wouldn’t be. I see Mulligan as the Gyllenhaal/Hawke of this season, showing up a lot beforehand but ultimately proving too much for the acting branch and possibly only scoring a screenplay nomination. Day/Zendaya/Flanigan all have a good shot as well, but I think Kirby is going to suck up a lot of the ‘ingenue’ attention. Here’s where I’m at right now:

    1. Vanessa Kirby, Pieces of a Woman
    2. Frances McDormand, Nomadland
    3. Viola Davis, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom
    4. Meryl Streep, The Prom
    5. Sophia Loren, The Life Ahead

    6. Andra Day, The United States vs. Billie Holiday
    7. Carey Mulligan, Promising Young Woman
    8. Zendaya, Malcolm & Marie
    9. Sidney Flanigan, Never Rarely Sometimes Always
    10. Kate Winslet, Ammonite

    Unranked Contenders:

    • Amy Adams, Hillbilly Elegy
      Nicole Beharie, Miss Juneteenth
      Jessie Buckley, I’m Thinking of Ending Things
      Carrie Coon, The Nest
      Julia Garner, The Assistant
      Yeri Han, Minari
      Elisabeth Moss, The Invisible Man
      Elisabeth Moss, Shirley
      Michelle Pfeiffer, French Exit
      Meryl Streep, Let Them All Talk
      Anya Taylor-Joy, Emma.
      Evan Rachel Wood, Kajillionaire

    I’ve seen some people making the case – and I’m starting to get on board with it – that there’s a lack of enthusiasm around Oldman’s performance (and Mank as a whole) that could end up with him left off a la De Niro in The Irishman. I’m making a bold claim here and thinking that in a year marked with, by my current predictions, multiple historic records broken (two women in Best Director, woman of color winning Best Director, etc), we’ll have a Leading Actor category with only one white nominee. I’m not putting full faith in this as the Oscars are nothing if not disappointing in regards to diversity, but I just have a feeling. Here’s where I’m at now:

    1. Chadwick Boseman, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom
    2. Anthony Hopkins, The Father
    3. Delroy Lindo, Da 5 Bloods
    4. Riz Ahmed, Sound of Metal
    5. Steven Yeun, Minari

    6. Gary Oldman, Mank
    7. Kingsley Ben-Adir, One Night in Miami…
    8. Tom Hanks, News of the World
    9. Lakeith Stanfield, Judas and the Black Messiah
    10. Ben Affleck, The Way Back

    Unranked Contenders:

    • George Clooney, The Midnight Sky
      James Corden, The Prom
      Winston Duke, Nine Days
      Colin Firth, Supernova
      Eli Goree, One Night in Miami…
      Tom Holland, Cherry
      Mads Mikkelsen, Another Round
      Viggo Mortensen, Falling
      Jesse Plemons, I’m Thinking of Ending Things
      Tahar Rahim, The Mauritanian
      Trevante Rhodes, The United States vs. Billie Holiday
      John David Washington, Malcolm & Marie

    Thank you to all of you who followed this project along over the last few months! I’m thinking of following it up with another similar poll – and now that this one has accrued so many followers on here and on Instagram, I think we’ll be looking at a much wider array of responses. For the topic, I’m thinking of doing the films with the best cinematography, so be on the lookout for the poll for that somewhat soon; I’ll probably take a break for a bit and then post that on January 1, and take entries over that whole month.

    (Also, for anyone wanting to see a similar list of both the Top 100 Films and Top 100 Directors, the Instagram account @magicoffilm did both of those recently, and was the inspiration for my own poll, so check out those results – but beware, some of the results are just as wild, if not more so, than this list here)
