The 89th Academy Awards are this Sunday, February 26th and the FINAL Oscar winner predictions from the Gold Rush Gang are locked and loaded. It’s been an easy ride for some, like Best Picture frontrunner La La Land. The film captured the Golden Globe and BAFTA for Best Film plus the PGA and DGA. Losing after all of that would ...

Collectively the AwardsWatch forums are predicting La La Land to win 11 of its 14 nominations. Best Actor is still proving to be a very close race with Original Screenplay and Costume Design also in play. Here are the FINAL winner predictions for the 2017 Oscars from the AwardsWatch forum Oscar polls. BEST PICTURE Fences 0% Hacksaw Ridge 0% Hell ...

The 32nd Film Independent Spirit Awards are this Saturday, the day before the Oscars as they traditionally do, and there are (also traditionally now) a boatload of Oscar nominees vying for awards here as well. Last year, Spotlight cleaned up, winning Best Feature, Director, Editing, Screenplay and the Robert Altman Award for its ensemble. It went on to win Best ...

Every Oscar season us awards watchers generally find ourselves in two camps; getting bored or frustrated when everything seems inevitable and freaking out when there are open races just days before the big show and fretting over our predictions. Despite a steamroll for La La Land in many categories, Supporting Actor isn’t one of them and after BAFTA it’s turned ...

Moonlight, from Barry Jenkins and Tarell Alvin McCraney, won the WGA Original Screenplay award last night, a coup of sorts since the film was moved over to Adapted by the Academy (where it’s Oscar-nominated) so most felt the WGA race was between La La Land and Manchester by the Sea. The last Best Picture winner to lose WGA was 2004’s ...

We’re just over a week away from the Oscars and as we head into the final stretch something surprising is happening. We’re seeing cracks in previously ‘locked’ categories, opening the door for former frontrunners to be overtaken by late-breaking films and performances. Specifically, Best Actor is now a true horserace with Casey Affleck (Manchester by the Sea) and Denzel Washington ...

As we enter the final lap of what always seems like a non-stop campaign to Oscar night, the final guilds of the season will be announcing their winners over the next few days. The Cinema Audio Society (CAS), the Makeup and Hairstyling Guild (MUAH), the Motion Picture Sound Editors (MPSE), the Writers Guild (WGA) and the Costume Designers Guild (CDG) ...

Illustration by Kyle Hilton originally in The Hollywood Reporter While nearly everyone worth their weight in Oscar predicting is in agreement that La La Land will win Best Picture, Director, Actress and Sound Mixing, the Gold Rush Gang feels pretty secure that it will pick up six more at the 89th Academy Awards. That will put it just one below ...

With nearly all of the major guilds (SAG, DGA, PGA) and industry awards (Golden Globes, BAFTA) under our belts all that’s left is the big one, The Oscars. Voting officially begins today (and lasts for eight days) yet there are still a lot of questions about certain races. Some that seemed solid have opened up, others just don’t have a ...
