90th Oscars. Oscar Contenders of 2017 - For prediction, discussion, entertainment purposes only
AND THE NOMINEES ARE...

We almost had an all newbie list this year but for the return of Octavia Spencer (a consecutive nomination and now tied with Viola Davis as the most nominated black actress ever). That nearly all newbie is listed is fascinating considering the age range is skewing older than usual in this particular category with Mary J Blige the youngest at 46 and Laurie Metcalf the oldest at 62. |

| Will win/Should win: Allison Janney looks like a steamroller though we think Oscar should take this opportunity to finish Laurie Metcalf's Triple Crown since she already has an Emmy and a Tony. | ||||
