By this time next week, everyone will know what a bunch of people think is the best movie of 2019. Every year there are snubs and every year the Academy fails at diversity.
Yes, that's right, the 92nd Academy Awards airs Sunday, February 9 and you'll probably start to see an influx of prediction articles and blogs.
But did any of them pick with their hearts and minds? The answer to that is probably yes.
But did any of them only pick the big six categories because they were lazy? Probably also yes.
Either way, we've made our own predictions and no science or math was involved!
Best Supporting Actor
- Tom Hanks - A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood
- Anthony Hopkins - The Two Popes
- Al Pacino - The Irishman
- Joe Pesci - The Irishman
- Brad Pitt - Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
This one seems like a no brainer. Brad Pitt has been collecting awards all winter long and this should be no different.
He put in two solid performances this year (Once Upon... and Ad Astra) and absolutely deserves the Oscar.
Best Support Actress
- Laura Dern - Marriage Story
- Scarlett Johansson - Jojo Rabbit
- Kathy Bates - Richard Jewell
- Florence Pugh - Little Women
- Margot Robbie - Bombshell
Florence Pugh should've been nominated for Best Actress for Midsommar, but it'll be hard to beat Laura Dern's nearly perfect acting in Marriage Story.
Don't count out a Kathy Bates win though. She's won before, but never as supporting actress.
Best Actor
- Antonio Banderas - Pain and Glory
- Leonardo DiCaprio - Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
- Adam Driver - Marriage Story
- Joaquin Phoenix - Joker
- Jonathan Pryce - The Two Popes
Joaquin, duh. Moving on.
Best Actress
- Cynthia Erivo - Harriet
- Scarlett Johansson - Marriage Story
- Saoirse Ronan - Little Women
- Charlize Theron - Bombshell
- Renee Zellweger - Judy
Most of the Getting Reel crew picked Renee Zellweger because she's winning everything like Brad Pitt, but JD picked with his heart and went with the double nominated Scarlett Johansson.
Her performance in Marriage Story is a love letter to acting. The performance is one-half of the reason why the movie is so, so amazing.
Best Director
- Martin Scorsese - The Irishman
- Todd Phillips - Joker
- Sam Mendes - 1917
- Quentin Tarantino - Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
- Bong Joon-ho - Parasite
For the second year in a row, a woman was not nominated for Best Director despite one of the Best Picture nominations being directed by Greta Gerwig.
It's a shame that Best Director can't always have the same amount of nominations as Best Picture.
Best Picture
- Ford v Ferrari
- The Irishman
- Jojo Rabbit
- Joker
- Little Women
- Marriage Story
- 1917
- Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
- Parasite
If we're picking with our hearts it's gotta be Parasite. The movie just knocks you off your feet with it's beautiful...everything!
Just as disappointing as it is to learn that only one woman has won the Best Director award, not a single international film has won the Best Picture award.
If any movie deserves it, it's Parasite.
