With all precursors in for Original Score, The Power of the Dog is the only one to earn nominations from every group and guild. Don’t Look Up, Dune and The French Dispatch are right behind and all have BAFTA nods.
In Original Song, only “No Time to Die” from No Time to Die has earned all precursors, already winning two of them. “Just Look Up” from Don’t Look Up, “Be Alive” from King Richard, “Here I Am (Singing My Way Home)” from Respect and “Dos Oruguitas” from Encanto are next in line. But I’m preparing for a big snub here and I think it’s headed towards Beyoncé’s way with 12-time nominee Diane Warren taking the last spot with “Somehow You Do” from Four Good Days. Warren is currently on her second four-year-in-a-row streak of nominations (already an Oscar record) and this would be her fifth.
Three films have hit all three Sound precursors: Dune, No Time to Die and West Story. None of those are missing but the next two slots will be made up of a combination of Last Night in Soho, The Power of the Dog, A Quiet Place Part II and Spider-Man: No Way Home with Belfast and The Matrix Resurrections as outliers.
Here are my final 2022 Oscar nominations predictions for Original Score, Original Song and Sound.
