Oscar Predictions from The Awards Alchemist


Welcome to The Awards Alchemist.

With his transition to AwardsWatch, Mark Johnson decided to rebrand his monthly Oscar predictions article. Goodbye to Good As Gold; hello to The Awards Alchemist – a nod to the science and analytics behind Oscar predictions, inspired by the ancient Egyptian and Greek practices of alchemy that sought to turn base metals into gold.

Here you’ll find Mark’s monthly pieces (including the first when it was still briefly titled Good As Gold), focusing on a singular category, the impact of critics and industry wins or whatever the wind brings his way for Oscar updates.
