now will TG get the NBR "curse"?

[Konril]

Yeoh better pull a Zellweger.

[Konril]

So Colin Farrell has NYFCC and NBR plus a Volpi Cup.

[Bojana]

Could Michelle Yeoh get that Oscar? 

[Green]

Maverick for PGA? looks like Paramount is finally gearing a full campaign for TG now that Babylon is looking to become a bottom tier contender

 

[Green]

Will The Weeknd's  soundtrack song for Avatar be eligible for the Oscars?

 

The song is coming on December 15th

[EnigmaticAndroid]

Yeoh 

 

Also good for Top Gun: Maverick. I don't think it'll win in the end, but anything to stop Fableshams

Yeah it is eligible and it's already been submitted, I think I read somewhere that Golden Globes and Oscars voters got a link to listen to it early 

[EnigmaticAndroid]

Blanchett sweep cancelled! Win cancelled! 

 

[Liafen]

Legend Cate was never going to win NBR.

[Dark Phoenix]

The way Yeoh and Cate are neck to neck.

 

Finally Fabelmans getting some love.

 

So happy for Close and Corsage, RRR and EO too.

 

TG is so American and wholesome that I can see it getting best picture, and yes at Tár not in the list ❤️

[Xantalli]

Queen sh*t 

can’t wait to see her be the Cannes/Venice president sometime in the next 10 years, my bet is Cannes cause they love her over there 

[hausofdave]

[Bad Wolf]

Best Actress

Cate Blanchett, Tár

Olivia Colman, Empire of Light

Viola Davis, The Woman King

Danielle Deadwyler, Till

Michelle Yeoh, Everything Everywhere All at Once

 

Would be shocked if these aren't the Oscar 5.

 

I don't see Michelle Williams making it in, her performance isn't that strong, and BA usually has more outside contenders in movies that aren't BP nominated. 

 

Naomi Ackie might be the real wildcard here... but buzz surrounding her performance seems nonexistent.

I still think it will get a BP nom

[MAXIMO]

Oscar ratings will definitely increase with those nominees, especially if James Cameron makes his film the frontrunner again.

[X~MoviePoP]
