So the 2025 Oscars/Academy Awards nominations are announced...


Who do you think will win the best Picture, best Actor, and the other categories?

Any nominations that surprised you, or do you think anyone or any film/department got snubbed?

Will have to see if they are going to cry about Trump's win in the oscar event too...
 
Honestly, this year's list looks very underwhelming across most categories. Not a single movie apart from maybe Dune is memorable that people would want to rewatch. Even Dune is only good as a visual treat but feels lacking in writing/storytelling. Haven't seen all of them, so might be wrong, but that's the feeling I get from trailers and wibes. Correct me if I am wrong.
 
I thought DV (Dune - best director) and Daniel Craig (Queer) would easily get nominated.
Wicked was quite a surprise for me. Substance shud have got more.
 
For best actress, I am pretty sure it is going to be Mikey Madison for Anora. Adrien Brody for best actor maybe. Yet to see the movie as Indian theatrical release is only in Feb. Same goes for A Complete Unknown. Ralph Fiennes was great in Conclave though. For best picture, I am rooting for Anora, Dune, and The Substance. Have high expectations for A Complete Unknown and The Brutalist but I need to see them first. Nosferatu will probably win all categories for which it is has been nominated. Strange Darling should have at least gotten a nomination.
