 This is the SF Productions podcast network It's time for Oscar predictions. Oh, please don't play us off from the pop culture bunker I'm indeed and I'm mark you can check out our audio podcast how I got my wife to read comics on iTunes or on our website SFpodcastnetwork.com So it's time for the annual Oscar prediction show We have our system for this which is we don't see any of the nominated films You know unless we accidentally have to see one during the year. Yeah, we don't make a point of it Yeah, and we see who won the awards leading up to the Oscars And then finally we see who has the most buzz I guess Now there are Oscar unofficial rules. Yes If you died you're in Biopics basically rule Portraying an illness works well or ugly or ugly. Yes, especially pretty boys made up ugly or pretty girls made up ugly That's Oscar bait Modelable nominations without a win will help you if you had premiums nominations And I think this is the next point you have is um going to affect next year's Oscars Really really heavily. Yeah, because we have the Oscars. So white issue going on We'll see how it impacts the event in the future. I think you will see some some changes there But let's get started with best supporting actor and actress Now again, I have not seen any of the movies in this category, right Supporting actor Christian Bale for the big short Tom Hardy for the revenant mark ruffalo for spotlight Mark Rylance for bridge of spies and Sylvester Stallone for creed. Are there any of those movies you are interested in seeing? Not particularly. Okay, maybe the big short maybe so we go with Who won a previous one of the the run-up awards the preliminaries Sylvester Stallone won the golden globe and the critics choice Uh while mark rylance won the newer critics Choice awards and this is interesting Idris Elba For beast of no nation won the sag award, but of course he hasn't been nominated, right? So we went ahead and both picked Sylvester Stallone. Yeah, um, he hasn't really won it since um The first rocky movie right and he's a really a sentimental favorite, which is a another Unofficial rule out there sentimental favorite supporting actress jennifer jason lay for the hateful eight mooney Rooney mara for carol rachel mcadams for spotlight alicia vickender for the jane danish girl and kate winslet for steve jobs Now this is kind of over the map here Kate winslet won golden globe, right and alicia want for vickender won the um critics choice And the sag award and the sag award and that's who i'm picking They tend to go with ingenues for this So that's why i'm picking that but i said steve jobs because it is a bio pick and sometimes they like bio picks a lot That's true. That's true bio picks. Yeah You had a good point. By the way christin stewart for clouds of sills maria was the new york critics choice winner New york's critics choice is becoming less and less of an indicator But uh, there's one that is pretty much across the board. This is the you can put all your money on this The lock is best animated feature uh golden globe critics choice producers guild new york critics Inside out and we but pick that for both of us. Yes, and I I wouldn't mind if Say a normal lisa one right because we backed the kickstarter for that one. Yeah. Yeah, but yeah, I don't think that's gonna happen. Yeah Best original song This is uh one that neither of us are really all that up on at all Because we didn't see any of the movies and really none of these are getting much buzz at all I mean, I haven't heard Any of these played. I mean, there's nothing like from a disney movie or anything. Right, right? So we have earned it from 50 shades of gray Manta ray racing extinction Simple song number three from youth till it happens to you the hunting ground and writings on the wall Specter and that was the james bond movie, right? Right and that was the one that won the golden globe For for best original song and the critics choice was see you again from inside out Another one that wasn't even in the oscar set uh, so You picked I did 50 shades of gray. I think just because the um oscar people are gonna See the name of the movie and say hey, I know that movie Really and I picked uh writings on the wall from specter Mostly because of the golden globe and and really traditionally james bond movies have won a lot of um music award. Yeah Best director we have adam mckay the big short george miller for mad max fury road Alejandro g in iratu the revenant Lenny abrahamsen the room or actually room. That's not the room. Oh, hi. No, it's not that one It's room and tom mccarthy for spotlight Now we have golden globe went to in iratu and the critics choice went to mad max and we split on this You picked in iratu. Yeah, I think the revenant just because um Of the type of movie it is is going to be winning more awards. Uh, yeah, yeah, because it's costume It's historical. It's pretty boy getting uh getting uh looking bad. Yeah I did pick george miller for mad max and I'd really like to see that win, but I don't think it's going to Yeah, I'm probably wrong on that now just as an aside, you know spotlight was nominated for an awful lot and it did win some of the critics awards Um, not in this category, but in other categories But I think really because that was a movie that was based on journalism That some of the journalists are going to pick that over some of the actors and and the the um entertainment industry I think you're right and by the way Todd hains for carol was the new york critics choice winner. So again, new york's critics choice becoming less and less of a of an indicator Best actor and actress we start with best actor brian cranson for trumbo matt daemon for the martian Leonardo da caprio for the revenant michael fastbender for sieve jobs and eddie redmayne for the danish girl as the Traditionally you might pick eddie redmayne for the danish girl because you know of the type of role it is But he won for doing the um Stephen hawking movie So he's already won his award for doing something, you know off the wall. Yeah, so he's out. Yeah, I would say so And considering that uh going globe critics choice and sag winner was leonard Leonardo da caprio There's a big thing about well, he's never won and he's been in the industry so long This is the you know, thanks for playing award. Yeah, kind of it's like well This may not have been your best, but we feel like at this point we need to give you one So we're both picking da caprio for that then we have Kate blanchett for carol brie larson for room jennifer laurence for joy charlotte rambling for 45 years and seersha ronan for brooklyn now see I think that although I think um Charlotte rambling might have stood a chance Before her comments about oscar so white. Yes. I think anybody that voted after that was not going to vote for because they were afraid She'd win. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, and so uh golden globe critics choice uh and sag all went for brie larson And near critics went to seersha ronan We're both picking brie larson. I think this is another one of those blocks I think that's what's going to happen. And by the way, michael keaton for spotlight was the new york critics association winner All right, we move on to finally best picture We have now i'm well first. Let me read you the names and then we'll go into one of the next thing The big short bridge of spies brooklyn mad max fury road the martian the revenant room and spotlight now big short One in terms of best picture one the critics choice and the producers guild martian one golden globe For comedy for comedy by the way because that wacky comedy the the martian the revenant uh one golden globe for drama And spotlight one critics choice The sag award and the prestigious central ohio film critics choice award Uh, the other thing to keep in mind is what other awards they won the big short in terms of other categories One three critics choice and one producers guild mad max won nine critics choice mostly the technical categories and one sag award The martian won two golden globes the revenant won three golden globes two critics choice and one sag award Uh the room sorry room won one golden globe And two critics choice and one sag award and spotlight won three critics choice and one sag award And carol who's not even on the list Was the um new york critics choice winner exactly And considering the fact that it won the golden globe Considering the fact that as we said before it's a it's a costume drama. It's historical. It's pretty boy It doesn't looks ugly and gets beaten up We're both going with revenant Yeah, yeah, I I'm not saying I think I it should win or anything and obviously having never seen the movies Right, but just there's a process of elimination as well. Um, the big short a lot of people found was very, um Confusing right regarding this subject matter and brooklyn is just basically a romance Right. Well considering that bridge of spies brooklyn neither of those won any other awards and then mad max nobody They never give it with the exception being you know the lord of the rings movies They would never nominate an action science fiction not going to happen. Yeah, and basically the same reason for martian Yeah, well not to mention the martian is you know, just really matt daemon playing matt daemon. Yeah, you know And there was so much controversy about it winning the golden globe for comedy. They were like, no They really yeah, these awards really mean absolutely nothing I'm just I'm just saying. Oh, absolutely. They mean absolutely nothing, but it's fun to fun to pick them out But yeah, absolutely. It's not worth anything. So So there's the deal. There's our picks And maybe we will go watch some of them when they come out on video or streaming or whatever, but probably not Meantime you can check out our radio podcast So I got my wife treat comics on itunes or on our website sfpodcastnetwork.com from the pop culture bunker I'm indy and I'm mark.
