All Oscar Charts Updated

by Nathaniel R

Peggy (Anna Paquin) silently judging "The Irishman" as it moves up the charts

Every Oscar chart has been at least slightly revised with Joker, The Irishman, and The Two Popes on the rise while JoJo Rabbit and A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood take a few hits. For now we're only predicting two nominations for Richard Jewell though we do fear that it could grow larger still since critics and the Academy regularly lose their minds when confronted with the uneven acting and flat visuals of Clint Eastwood dramas. We'll never understand this annual glitch in the matrix.

Some risks we're taking at the moment: trying snubs for Frozen 2, Saoirse Ronan, Willem Dafoe, and Tom Hanks on for size to see how those particular charts feel without them as predicted nominees. 

Will they or won't they? It feels like Little Women and The Farewell are both on the bubble of a Best Picture nod. It would be fun to predict both but could they really overcome audience hit Ford V Ferrari and Eastwood bait Richard Jewell, simultaneously since both fit more neatly into the kind of stories (aka true and about men... sigh) that Oscar prefers?

His lists are a bit dumb tho because he often likes calling attention to them, just to do so. Border was last year!

Please stop pretending to be me, whoever you are. I feel like it's probably a markgordonuk, Jaragon, or /3rtful-type since I feel like they're boomers who would do that. I'm not even that interesting or memorable of a user, so I might just start posting under a new handle without anyone knowing. Tbh, beyaccount is just the username of the fake Grindr email I use, lol!

Anyways, @Claran, if you think any of the problematic things Scarlett has said will ruin her Oscar chances, you would be thoroughly mistaken. Her whole shtick is being a problematic white woman. She's been campaigning so hard at like every single film festival and press outlet that exists. Considering Oscar voters skew white and older, she will get nominated. If Mel Gibson and Casey Affleck can get nominated...

Knives Out yall! The most fun I've had at the movies since Lady Bird. I have seen my favorite two movies of the year so far over the past week - this and Neighborhood.

I'm afraid Lionsgate will go all-in on the Bombshell campaign but it shouldn't. The narrative is there - universal acclaim, BO surprise, well-liked cast and a comeback story for Rian Johnson after his online gutting by the Star Wars fanboy universe.
