(Well, 17, if we count the International Category - but I doubt that a sweep with technicals/score/song etc could happen with a foreign language movie) I think that to do that the movie would have to be a new Titanic but on steroids level box office and critical juggernaut that fascinates audiences to the point of not only breaking box office but attendance records as well. The director would make THE movie of movies (the director would be the only scriptwriter). It would boast a powerful original or adapted screenplay and star actors (in leading and supporting roles) that would deliver the best performances of their careers. It would be tightly edited and perfectly paced, have cutting edge visual effects and immersive sound, all of which would be enhanced by gorgeous production design, intricate costume design along with incredibly convincing makeup & hairstyling. The soundtrack would have to be moving and memorable, the score would be placed at number one on the album charts for multiple weeks and around the time the Oscars happen. Alongside the movie would be an inescapable hit song by a big artist that would dominate airwaves, streaming and people's minds, it would contain melodies from the score itself and be a complete sonic representation of all the movie is and what it means to audiences. Excitement and hype surrounding the movie would reach a point so extreme that it would spawn growing hate movements of the film. Edited March 9, 2023 by mystery

Yes the prosthetics were a mess but she absolutely earned that Oscar. The whites in charge of the prosthetics also won Oscars

Konril Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 They better not do Yeoh dirty with the Halle Berry thing. When Best Actor was announced last in 2021, thought Chadwick had it in the bag... and you know how that went.

The way you're not even pretending to not be racist anymore.
Braz Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 The Marvel light sweep will make the ceremony the most boring thing ever. It's giving Slumdog Millionaire with 2 acting wins.

CaptainMusic Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) If Halle presents Best Actress and Cate wins Hopefully Michelle wins and it’s like Barbra Streisand presenting Best Director to Katherine Bigelow. And not an awkward Chadwick mess all over again smh Edited March 9, 2023 by CaptainMusic
ChatshireCat Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Can't wait for miss Yeoh to present best actress to the next WoC winner in 2043
Cloudy Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Mother Yeoh better win. If they have Halle presenting and she doesn't...what a set up...
Kylizzle Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 They need to stop trying to have these ~moments~ because it backfires every time.

That the Academy did not let a then 83 year old that had rightful fears of the wordwide, deadlx pandemic to just call in. “Similarly, “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” costume designer Ann Roth, who is 89, couldn’t make it to one of the Academy’s designated hubs; she also was denied a speech.” disgustang on both accounts
Liafen Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Halle presenting.. girl the greatest scream would be if she calls up Michelle. Williams.
LastKiss Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 They never learn Like UNLESS they for sure know miss Yeoh is winning then fine, have Halle present the award but if anyother lady wins is gonna be a MESS like a couple of years ago when Sir Anthony won instead of Chadwick and the ceremony ended in such an akward way
Arrows Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 Rooting for EEAAO to win as many as possible. After half a year of arguing back and forth in my head I have concluded that it is indeed the best film in… ever. And I’m not exaggerating. A monumental feat that I sincerely doubt will ever be surpassed for me, personally. It’s looking more and more likely that the Oscars will reflect that.
mystery Posted March 10, 2023 Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) I mean I think Halle is a decent choice, the only reason she is presenting is because Will Smith is banned from the Oscars. The Best Actor recipient from last year usually presents the Best Actress award. I think she is a fairly safe choice and it certainly can't be worse than the Academy setting up Best Actor being the last category presented only for Chadwick not to win.
