If Killing Eve, Better Call Saul, Homeland and Westworld turn out to be really really good (like the best seasons ever of their shows), could that mean that Big Little Lies, The Handmaid’s Tale and Stranger Things get shut out from everything other than Dern, Kidman, Streep, Harbour, Moss and maybe Strahovski and some other guest acting categories?

Updated predictions

Picture

1. The Trial of the Chicago 7
2. Tenet
3. Hillbilly Elegy
4. The French Dispatch
5. Minari
6. Mank
7. Ammonite
8. The Last Duel

P.S. If the Academy go for a blockbuster hit to keep ratings up, it’s either Wonder Woman 1984 or No Time to Die

Director

1. Christopher Nolan – Tenet
2. Aaron Sorkin – The Trial of Chicago 7

I greatly disagree although what you are saying may be a possibility. Whilst The Irishman got more nominations than Jojo Rabbit, there seemed to be a lack of passion for it (evident by the fact it didn’t win anything).

Can’t find the original thread so thought I’d start a new one (seeming we just had an awards season).

Feel free to post your own thoughts about this hypothesis below.

2009 : Avatar, The Hurt Locker, Inglorious Basterds, A Serious Man, Up in the Air
2010 : Black Swan, The Fighter, The King’s Speech, The Social Network, True Grit
