Hello everyone and welcome to the Academy Award predictions here at DoubleFeaturePreachers.com! There’s a lot of people that have already done their predictions (Shannon included) but as usual, I’m slacking. However, I wanted to ensure I put a lot of thought into the predictions, and so even though I’m down to the wire, I feel good about my predictions. I’m not wasting any time here, let’s get right to the big one! Best Picture: Bohemian Rhapsody The Favourite Black Panther BlacKkKlansman Green Book Vice A Star is Born Roma This is an extremely varied Best Picture race, and let’s year’s winner The Shape of Water makes it a bit harder because the Academy awarded something that I didn’t think they would award. So that opens it up a bit for something like Blackkklansman and Black Panther, but I think the usual ones are going to come forward. I think Roma has an EXCELLENT shot to win; however, I’m thinking that it will pull Best Foreign Language film and so I think it’s going to get hit for the top honor. There are a few I don’t think stand a chance, but I’m not going to detract them. David’s wish: A Star is Born. It hit me super hard and I couldn’t get over it. I’d also totally be alright with The Favourite winning. David’s Prediction: Green Book Best Actor: Bradley Cooper (A Star is Born) Willem Dafoe (At Eternity's Gate) Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody) Viggo Mortensen (Green Book) Christian Bale (Vice) I think there are only two horses in this race – Malek and Bale. This is unfortunate, because a lot of these performances are very good – with Mortensen probably being the weakest despite a terrific turn as Tony Lip. I’m going to go with: David’s Wish: Bradley Cooper – again, I’m just struck by this movie, and it would have been nothing without him as Jackson Maine. David’s Prediction: Rami Malek Best Actress: Lady Gaga (A Star is Born) Melissa McCarthy (Can You Ever Forgive Me?) Olivia Colman (The Favourite) Yalitza Aparicio (Roma) Glenn Close (The Wife) This race is one of the toughest of the night. I think there are plenty of reasons you could give the edge to any of them – Gaga has a dynamite performance as Ally, McCarthy is going against type, etc. But all in all, I think it’s going to come down to Close and Colman. And the winner is: David’s Wish: Olivia Colman David’s Prediction: Olivia Colman Best Supporting Actor: Adam Driver (BlacKkKlansman) Mahershala Ali (Green Book) Sam Rockwell (Vice) Sam Elliot (A Star is Born) Richard E Grant (Can You Ever Forgive Me?) Probably the weakest category for me – I’m going totally all in on Richard E. Grant’s Cinderella story with this one. David’s Wish: Richard E. Grant David’s Prediction: Richard E. Grant Best Supporting Actress: Emma Stone (The Favourite) Regina King (If Beale Street Could Talk) Rachel Weisz (The Favourite) Marina de Tavira (Roma) Amy Adams (Vice) This for me is where I ended up being the most conflicted: my heart tells me Rachel Weisz, because she seals The Favourite – but my head is telling me that Regina King just has too much momentum. And the winner is: David’s Wish: Rachel Weisz David’s Prediction: Regina King Here are some random predictions below as well – note that this is purely predictions based on heresay and knowledge of the industry since I haven’t seen every film, not necessarily entirely based on my own thoughts on films: Best Costume Design The Ballad of Buster Scruggs Black Panther The Favourite Mary Poppins Returns Mary Queen of Scots Best Makeup and Hairstyling Border Mary Queen of Scots Vice Best Documentary Feature Free Solo Hale County This Morning This Evening Minding the Gap Of Fathers and Sons RBG Best Documentary Short Black Sheep End Game Life Boat A Night at the Garden Period.
