2021 Oscars should only count movies released in 2020.

I just love movies. And awards.

*Is this the first big shot Amazon’s had at a non-documentary/international category Oscar in a long time? When was the last?

Maybe Manchester by the Sea?

Completely changed some things up with my predictions. Thank God this is back on some force even if I’ve yet to see any of this lol

1. Removed Sorkin from director. Right now, I’m only confident with Zhao and Fincher. Regina King is a strong maybe. Putting Shaka King now before everybody hops on that train (lol. I’m betting that movie will be big)

2. Hopping on this Kirby and Burstyn train for now and hopping off the Ammonite one. Supporting actress choices look kinda slim no?

3. I think Da 5 Bloods is one of those movies that seem like people forgot already but come awards time, it’s actually still in everyone’s minds. We shall see.

4. Calming down a bit on the Chicago 7 hype. The trailer does looks underwhelming. I’m not completely giving up on it though. Pretty sure it’s the next Oscar buzzy film I’ll be able to watch in a while.

Math is not my strongest suit. Is 2/1 strong strong? Or is 100/1 better? My guess is 100/1 is better but not sure. I made a lot of these choices when the prediction center JUST opened up.

I just love movies. And awards.

Night of the Kings sounds like One Thousand and One Arabian Nights. Would be interesting to see the tales of the country incorporated in it.

China’s The Eight Hundred is a good watch. It has its corny moments (it’s a war film so expect a lot of nationalistic sentiments) but it was an enjoyable movie experience.

LEAD ACTRESS OSCAR

Gwyneth Paltrow – Shakespeare in Love – WINNER
Cate Blanchett – Elizabeth
Fernanda Montenegro – Central Station
Meryl Streep – One True Thing
Emily Watson – Hilary and Jackie

I have seen all of the performances with the exception of Meryl Streep. Of the 4 performances, I would have ranked Gwyneth in fourth place giving the win to either Fernanda Montenegro or Cate Blanchett.

Watched them all. My order would’ve been…

Montenegro
Watson
Blanchett
Paltrow
Streep

Gwyneth is fine. Liked her on Glee.
