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.

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.
