Yes a bumper crop and the most popular group of films in a long while. Should help ratings a little.

This is gonna be a year where audiences will have actually seen the nominated films, with 2 being on Netflix, and 1917, Joker, Knives Out and Little Women likely all crossing 100m domestic. Only Parasite and Jojo Rabbit look to maybe be nominated without being much seen,


Don't forget about Once Upon a Time in Hollywood!

1917
The Irishman
Jojo Rabbit
Joker
Knives Out
Marriage Story
Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood
Parasite

If there's get a 9th slot hope Little Women gets in.

I’d love that lineup (plus Little Women), even if I don’t love some films in it (Irishman, Hollywood). And why not throw in another crowd pleaser— Ford v Ferrari? or a curveball—Us, or The Lighthouse? for an even 10, which hasn’t happened since 2010. It’d be a good year for 10 nominees I think.

Now that OUATIH missed Best Editing I’m off the train of it winning Best Picture. Best Picture winners don’t miss editing unless it’s a Birdman situation, which is why 1917 missing isn’t a problem. In fact OUATIH might have missed a Picture nomination in a field of 5 since if JoJo made it something had to miss and Parasite, Irishman, 1917, and Joker with its 11 noms are all looking pretty good

Think it will be a split between 1917 and Parasite with former winning BP. Greta and Tarantino will win screenplay so that will suffice. Jojo was lucky to be nominated but it will be the biggest loser of all the nominees.

BP in order of likelihood:

1. 1917
2. Parasite
3. Once

I'd say, in order of likelihood:

Parasite
1917
Hollywood
Joker
Marriage Story
Irishman
Jojo Rabbit
Little Women
Ford v Ferrari

I think people would be mostly OK with the first 3 though. And the Oscar winner always drums up a few days of controversy,..

The last movie to win BP and not receive any acting nominations was Slumdog Millionaire.

Marriage Story is finished... JoJo is too low! It didn’t have to get any of DGA, SAG and Editing but got them all

How? Its not getting Best Actor. Missing Editing means its not getting BP as well. It will either get Director or Screenplay. With heavy favorites like 1917 and FvF there is no way this gets Sound Editing and/or Mixing. Costume it can but I still think Little Women will win that. 1917 should win Cinematography for sure with that gimmicky camerawork throughout the movie.

So in retrospect OUATIH will get Supporting Actor and Director/Screenplay.

I'm curious which film Shack is referring to with his idiotic meme.

I mean, I haven't seen it... but I highly doubt Jojo is a "surface level take on racism". Yikes.

After seeing it, I think Parasite winning would be a small miracle. Oscar winners usually have that decorated, sugar-y feel, and do not have long pointed dialogue exploring a theme. The reasons Parasite won at Cannes are the same reasons why it will not be favored by the Oscars.
