Oscar Discussion Thread!

Are you ready for some politics!? Wait. I mean. Are you ready for the Oscars!? The Oscars is still about movie awards, right? I guess we’ll find out tomorrow. Use this thread to make predictions, heap praise upon your favorite films of the year, and wonder out loud why the heck everyone loves that one movie only you seem to know is terrible.

Here is who I’d like to win the major awards (not to be confused with who I think will win the awards)

BEST PICTURE – Three Billboards

LEAD ACTOR – Daniel Day Lewis

LEAD ACTRESS – Francis McDormand

SUPPORTING ACTOR – Sam Rockwell

SUPPORTING ACTRESS – Haven’t seen enough of these to make an educated choice

DIRECTOR – Christopher Nolan for Dunkirk (he won’t win but he definitely did the best job)

ADAPTED SCREENPLAY – Aaron Sorkin for Molly’s Game

ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY – Emily Gordon and Kumail Nanjiani for The Big Sick
