MTFB OSCAR UPDATE-IT'S IN FLUX
It's all pretty messy now. Oscar nominations are now set to be announced on Jan. 23rd. Today I'm updating the nomination predictions for the Big Eight categories: Picture, Direction, all four acting categories and the two screenplay categories. My plan at the moment is to focus on updating close races in Monday's post and do a Special Final Oscar Nom post on Wednesday the 22nd assuming that the Thursday, Jan. 23rd date remains in tact. I'll do some sort of post on Thursday after the nominations are announced.
That said, here are updated predictions for the Big Eight with their last posted ranking to the right of each title in parentheses. And, as always, TFF films are in Bold.
