First a note or two…
If past history holds, these nomination predictions will be between 75%-80% accurate. Additionally, of that 20%-25% missed, around 20% of those misses will pop up as the #6 possibility in categories that have five nominations. Then again, as crazy as this Oscar season has been so far… all bets are off.
As always, TFF #46 films are indicated in Bold.
With that, here are the final MTFB Oscar nomination predictions for the 92nd Academy Awards:
BEST PICTURE
1) Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood
2) Parasite
3) 1917
4) The Irishman
5) Jojo Rabbit
6) Joker
7) Marriage Story
8) Ford v Ferrari
9) Little Women
10) Knives Out
Other possibles: The Farewell, Rocketman, Uncut Gems
Notes: The top seven films feel solid. I'm guessing nine films get nominated this year. Here’s a thing, though…It feels like there’s a Little Women movement going on…that could get Gerwig, Ronan and Pugh in as well as the film for Best Pic.
