That’s great and all but what does any of that have to do with your post regarding your opinion of The Shape Of Water?

In what capacity have you worked in the film industry for 30 years?

I seriously doubt that.

18/24 right. Eh. Not bad. Fun show. Wasn’t bored for a second.

15/20 right so far.

Bill Paxton?

Can’t believe This Is Me lost. One of the very few times I feel a song was robbed!

Hmm....there were a lot of empty seats at that screening of A Wrinkle In Time. I still think it’s gonna flop big time.

11/13 right so far.

By the way we watched a Ladybird last night. Agree pretty much with Mark. Good film but not as good as I thought it would be. I haven’t seen Call Me By Your Name or Phantom thread so right now Ladybird is last among the BP nominees for me.

Ha. Forgot to mention I copied and pasted your post with my predictions. Thanks Pal. :thumbsup:

Ok. Here are my predictions for tonight’s Oscars Picture: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Director: Guillermo del Toro, The Shape of Water Actor: Gary Oldman, Darkest Hour Actress: Frances McDormand, Three Billboards Supporting Actor: Sam Rockwell, Three Billboards Supporting...

I’ll put up my predictions late tonight or early tomorrow. And that’s exactly what my wife and I will do. Curl up with some food and wine and watch the show. Should be a fun distraction I hope.

Hope you and your wife feel better too Mark.

Yeah we had to cancel our Oscar party too as I’ve been in the hospital since Wednesday caring for my sick mother. My wife worked so hard preparing the menu, gifts, swag bags etc. Shes been a trooper. Told her we’ll save everything for next year. Priorities. She’s feeling better so we’re...

Highly unlikely. According to the AMPAS It’s only happened six times in 90 years. However I count seven.* And only twice for a major award (acting). From various sources. According to the AMPAs database, the first happened in 1931-32, when Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde‘s Frederic March and The...

Well it’s gonna be either Three Billboards or Shape Of Water I think.

The wife and I are also having our yearly Oscar Party. Very small with about 10 people but I give out gift cards to who predicts the winners and the wife gives out Swag bags to all the ladies. Always a fun time.

I would go with Dunkirk.

Three Billboards pretty much swept the Baftas last night. It’s pretty much now the front runner to win the BP Oscar in two weeks. Guillermo won Best Director and ditto for him to with that Oscar too.

As was Silence Of The Lambs.

I don’t think it’s been mentioned in this thread but the biggest disappointment regarding nominations for me is the omission of James McAvoy’s amazing performance in Split.

DGA Awards: Guillermo del Toro Wins Feature Award for ‘The Shape of Water Guillermo Del Toro won the coveted DGA award tonight for Best Director which practically guarantees him a win at the Oscars. From Variety The DGA award is one of the top indicators of Oscar sentiment with all but seven...

This is what I’m expecting when I see it next week.

Obviously I don’t know who’s going to win, so apologies if I came off annoying or arrogant. Like I said I just base my predictions on the odds on favorites in each category based on previous guild wins/buzz/guesses etc. Nothing more.

Ive got 4 left Darkest Hour Phantom Thread Lady Bird Call Me By Your Name

It’s a terrific film imo. You should see it.

La La Land??;)

Well I did claim LLL would definitely win last year and we all know how that turned out. We should have some kind of contest this year. We have in the past and I actually won one year (22/24). Ron??:)

Toughest predictions are documentary doc short, animated short etc.
