I liked Get Out and sort-of liked CMBYN, but I don't feel like I can vote in this without having seen Lady Bird, The Phantom Thread, The Post or The Shape of Water (the others don't interest me at all).

I think I like The Phantom Thread better as a title; sounds more superhero-ey.

Phantom Thread - 9/10
Lady Bird - 8/10
CMBYN - 8/10
The Post - 7/10
Dunkirk - 6/10
Get Out - 6/10

will see Shape of Water at some point, no interest in the other two.

Seen five, voting for Get Out, which is gonna be a cultural touchstone for years and years. Not sure you can say that about any of the other films

Released exactly a year ago this weekend. If it wins -- a big if -- it'll be, what, the earliest movie released to win Best Picture since Silence of the Lambs?

Would be thrilled if it won, I think it's gonna walk away with Screenplay but lose out on the other major categories

It would also be the only horror winner since then. I'm pretty sure TSOW is taking it, though.

I can honestly say I have no idea what is going to win Best Pic.

Dangleballs and the Ballerina (cryptosicko), Thursday, 1 March 2018 01:17 (six years ago) link

It's going to not be Darkest Hour or The Post or Call Me By Your Name. Beyond that, anything's possible.

Shape of Water seems to be heavily favoured among awards that tend to be predictive of the Oscars BP
