Jane Campion will win her second screenplay Oscar. The Oscars will not pick 2 female directors back to back. This should be Spielberg and WSS winning as did Schindler’s List winning over The Piano. The Power of The Dog is a difficult film for all academy members to embrace, where WSS seems beloved by all and has gotten universally rave reviews. Time for some new academy achievement, a remake of an Oscar winning film awarded 60 years later. That’s pretty amazing.

Why are so many listening and being fooled by the Will Smith hype?
His performance is one note, sappy and not deserving. Sorry

Smith will be nominated with Garfield and Cumberbatch, both giving more superior performances. Washington is brilliant, but Oscar #3 won’t happen with Shakespeare
I would watch out for Peter Dinklage in Cyrano

Right now I’m going with Cumberbatch!!

Now that King Richard has been released and seen, I think most of you can finally admit that it’s no more than a hokey inspirational movie and there will be NO Oscar for Will Smiths hokey performance. Let’s look to the real competition

You can all quote me. Will Smith is not winning an Oscar for that terrible performance in a mediocre sappy sports movie. It’s a joke that all the so called pundits are picking him. They all picked Chadwick last year and that didn’t happen. All of this politically correct minority inclusion can get old after awhile. Right at the top Will and Denzel. I’ll stick to my guns. No for both!

For those people who think Will Smith is the front runner for best actor, are you kidding? In the trailer his performance looks absolutely amateur. I have never regarded Smith as a good actor, I don’t believe he has become one now. Just a whole lotta hype for what looks like a TV movie at best. Just my opinion.
