Oscars 2023

Well... I googled the nominations for this year thinking they must have been announced by now, and thought it was the actual nominations, but it was just predictions.. nevermind. It's always annoying waiting for them to be announced.

Anyway, here's the predictions I saw...

1 Everything Everywhere All at Once
2 The Fabelmans
3 The Banshees of Inisherin
4 TÁR
5 Elvis
6 Top Gun: Maverick
7 Avatar: The Way of Water
8 All Quiet on the Western Front
9 Women Talking
10 Babylon

Entertainment Weekly Oscar Predictions

I saw another one on Vanity Fair that included The Whale, which is one that I actually want to see. So we'll see. When the actual nominations are announced someone please don't hesitate to post them here.

I think the Oscars are 12 March 2023.

^^^Holy CRAP I’ve actually SEEN a lot of these…

1 Everything Everywhere All at Once
4 TÁR
5 Elvis
6 Top Gun: Maverick
8 All Quiet on the Western Front

…to include…

The Whale

…which is unprecedented for me when Oscar time comes around.

Yeah, even though this isn't the official nominations, I'm going to start watching as many of these as I can to get a head start. At least some of the ones I've heard good things about.

Just watched The Fabelmans. It was good. More of a film for film buffs, though, and fans of Spielberg. I heard some of an interview on NPR a couple months ago with Spielberg about the movie. It was interesting. I may have to try to find it and give it another listen. Ah, this was probably it...

Fresh Air Weekend: Steven Spielberg; Black servicemen in WWII

I've seen some of them.

Everything Everywhere all at Once was my favourite film of the year. I'd like to see Michelle Yeoh win best actress but she probably won't.

The Banshees of Inisherin was disappointing tbh. It's likely only getting a nod because of success of McDonagh's previous winner, Three Billboards...

All Quiet on the Western Front I found mostly boring frankly. Other foreign made war films over the years have been far more epic and far more harrowing. Brotherhood and City of Life and Death as examples.

Avatar will undoubtedly win the fx category but it never really excelled in anything else.

Top Gun Maverick was a great feel good movie but I don't think it'll win in any particular category.

Haven't seen the rest.

Oscar bait films are becoming increasingly irrelevant, box ticking exercises.

Wonder what Will Smith will get mhmm

Cucked again, probably.

Of all those movies, I've only seen Everything Everywhere All at Once.

Nothing unexpected tbh PL.

Yeah, I'm actually a little relieved that I don't have to sit through Wakanda Forever. That was going to be a drag. Unless I get pretty bored I probably won't bother with it.

So The Whale isn't good enough for a Best Picture nom? I generally like Darren Aronofsky, so I'm looking forward to it.

Ah I actually just bought the ebook of All Quiet on the Western Front and had no idea a movie came out recently. Maybe I'll read it next and then check out the movie if it's good.

Also the Oscars are for retards and child molesters.
