No Anora in screenplay, no Nickel Boys in director, and The Brutalist only in director is quite the turnaround from NYFCC yesterday

Swinton is loved by the industry and TRND is distributed by SPC. I don't see her happening but it's more likely imo than people pretending Winslet has a chance.

I feel like Winslet's definitely gonna pop up at the Golden Globes and could be a spoiler; feels like she's everywhere and I did just read someone was holding a private screening at their home for Lee (blanking on the name of course). Tilda would be a cool nom but I feel like the movie would need to be catching on more to make that happen; feels like there's no campaign at all

Oh wow Elle Fanning, Nicole, Wicked  

The Brutalist and Nickel Boys flopping after winning big at NYFCC ffff

Anora remaining consistent  

[hausofdave]

Every year NBR aligns with the eventual BP lineup like 5-6/10, and this year's lineup makes things easy:

 

Anora 
Babygirl 
A Complete Unknown 
Conclave 
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga 
Gladiator II 
Juror #2 
Queer 
A Real Pain 
Sing Sing 

Wicked

 

My guess is the films in bold make it into BP, the others miss.

Move over Jolie, the real Drama Globe winner is coming though 

[Konril]

NBR went wild. I don't even know what's the frontrunner. 

[ctlp27]

Wicked best picture is like Green Book winning. Makes no sense even though Wicked is much better. Best director for Chu? With that photography?

[GagaStefi]

Drew Starkey's team is failing him...

I think it'll ultimately be like when Fury Road and Top Gun: Maverick won big at NBR. It cements them as legitimate awards players even if they don't end up super win-competitive in the end. 

[Green]

When are the Golden Globe nominations coming?

Yeah I really don't see it winning BP but the whole conversation about Oscars and Wicked has become a bit annoying since its release (like no Ariana doesn't deserve a nomination, she's great in it but let's not get ridiculous). It reminds me of Barbie last year (which was better on many technical aspects).

I agree, people are being reactionary as always. And similar to what happened with Barbie, I wonder if the sheer hype it's experiencing right now could be inflating people's expectations for it across the season (and I say that as someone who thought Barbie could win BP pre-season). We have months to go, multiple major awards bodies to hand out awards, and multiple films are still building steam. We'll see.

[Aiya]

 

Visually wicked is better than Barbie.
(plot wise too)
I hope C and A gets nominated but I Fear Ari will get a Margot treatment. We will see.

[futurenostalgic]

Ok i was not a fan of wicked AT ALL. But I don't think that comparison works as much. With Barbie, Margot, as a lead actress, needed #1 votes against top dramatic competition. That role and performance was just not enough to get voters passionate and vote her as THEIR fave lead performance of the year. I always thought this before even while she snatched all those noms prior to Oscar.  It didn't help that Ryan Gosling was stealing all the attention in performance criticism in that movie. Ariana is getting far more praise and raves in reviews than Margot had, so she has way more going for her. She also has a "more challenging" aspect to her role vs. Barbie. It's more feasible to imagine voters putting her in as their #1. And the best part for her is that she is in supporting. She's in a really great spot right now. Ariana's problem with voters lies with, not bc she will get Margot'd, but: 1.) Will voters get over popstar bias? and 2.) Will voters like Wicked enough?

Are you gonna sit here and tell me Astra Awards and NBR are more of a precursor than GG?

[Donquizote]

Told you all Elle Fanning will be strong for nomination this year

[Dark Miracles]

Hmm I feel like Demi really needed NBR, but at least she got the Indie Spirit nom

 

Craig winning Actor at NBR is pretty big for him, Queer's rollout feels incredibly lowkey so far
