Uh yeah? She's literally #3 in the expert predictions on GoldDerby and is campaigning lol. 

it doesn't seem realistic to me at all. cynthia is probably a more likely nom if anything, since she's already a nominee, and the movie is more about her

some of y'all still doubting wicked is crazy, the broadway show itself is huge and it was always a good bet that the movie would be massive as well

 

that's why so many actresses were fighting for the roles. with the reaction it's getting i wouldn't be surprised if both cynthia and ariana are nominated at the oscars and the movie gets a best picture nod

Why isn't it realistic? If the majority of experts are predicting her to get a nomination she absolutely has a realistic chance. Cynthia is not more likely, she's less likely. Lead Actress is way more competitive and it's a category that isn't as friendly to musical performances like Supporting Actress is. There is a precedent for musical and comedic performances to be nominated/rewarded in the Supporting categories. Cynthia is #6 in the odds with 10 out of 32 experts predicting her nomination. Ariana is #3 with 23 out of 32 experts predicting her nomination.

It should get Barbie noms, it's really good. The only weird part is Ariana being in supporting. She's a co-lead and arguably THE lead of the first half. She's in almost every scene, and when she's not her absence is highlighted.

We're still in an age that 2 leads of the same gender will never both be in the right category hence why The Room Next Door ladies Tilda Swinton & Julianne Moore both going lead was a shocker this year.

 

92% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes & certified Fresh, critics' consensus:

 

Defying gravity with its magical pairing of Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, Wicked's sheer bravura and charm make for an irresistible invitation to Oz.

 

99% popcornmeter score from the audience & verified Hot, audience says:

 

Fly, do not run, to see Wicked, a bewitching musical experience chanted by a spellbinding cast.

Part 1 is going to smash, but I'm worried about part 2 being IT: Chapter 2'd where there is a decline in quality and box office because all the hype was focused on part 1

it helps that part 2 is a retelling of wizard of oz with a twist and not the boring lengthy it part 2

She broke the tie, another expert added her to their predictions and she's up to 25 out of 32 predicting her now. Moves ahead to #2. :cupid:

The movie can definitely get Oscars love if both the audience and critics are behind it.

Just saw it! Honestly lived up to (and exceeded) my expectations. Ariana ******* killed it, I was shook. Everything was done so perfectly.

Just got out of seeing this and loved every minute of it. Cynthia and Ari were born to play these roles.

Guys, I was crying like a baby during the Oz dust scene. This movie was a masterpiece. I experienced so many goosebumps moments. And it was a truly magical experience especially during One Short Day. Cynthia really blew me away especially during the last scene. And as a long time Ariana fan, I had never been this impressed by her vocal delivery until Wicked. She really trained well to give Glinda's character a justice. Please give both of them the Oscars they deserve. :WAP: The movie really looked expensive as hell. My only complaint is the lighting, really. Wish it wasn't too bright especially during the library scene.

 

 

9.5/10

the way I went from not interested at all to absolutely hyped to see this in a matter of days... shame it comes out two weeks later in Germany.

Gaga's J:FAD is gone, Selena's Emilia Pérez is gone but Ariana's Wicked is still standing... who would have thought.

Girl,I wish you guys saw how reddit were mocking and laughing at Ariana when she was being in discussion for BSA alongside with Gaga and Selena last month. One of them said like Ariana campaigning for BSA is like someone applying for Harvard with a 0.9 GPA. Now they're eating crow.
