Predictions Friday: Final Oscar Nominations Predictions

The longest Oscar season in their (and our) history is about to come to its final act. We’re heading into the the nominations to be announced at last on Monday morning. How they go will determine what our next few weeks are going to be like. Will it be a Golden Globes like situation where the Academy must put out statements and vow to change membership and attend bias training or will it be like the BAFTAs where the nominations are inclusive enough to avoid controversy? Not everyone is going to be happy with how things turn out – least of all Twitter. Because when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

I’ve written enough. Now, let’s get on with it, shall we? I don’t feel confident about these nominations at all. I’ve looked at the predictions of others, rewatched some films and wondered where the big movies will miss. We know there will be some good surprises and some bad surprises – either way, we’ll swim this river together. My predictions are likely different here on the Oscar Squad and at Gold Derby. But this is the final list, which I reserve the right to tinker with over the weekend.
