Who else is in the game, and who is already out? Let’s take another look at the current Oscar race and tell us who else has a chance in the top Best Picture category.
The last time we analyzed the Oscar race was in mid-August. The time when you can still include many films in the forecast. Because only in September the wheat separates from the chaff. Many studios then use the Venice, Telluride and Toronto film festivals to screen their Oscar contenders for the first time. So at the end of October we were already well ahead of our forecast.
With a small chance
- Son
- White noise
- bardo
- blonde
- Amsterdam
- The Greatest Beer Run
Even if we Sonnew film by Florian ZellerFather), I liked it, the general tenor at the film festival was quite devastating. Many considered the film too manipulative, so it will have a hard time on a strong field. Also Netflix titles White noise as well as bardo weren’t very convincing during Andrew Dominic’s Marilyn Monroe biopic. blonde in many places there was even outright hatred. Amsterdam meanwhile failed so badly that the Swiss theatrical release was cancelled, and The Greatest Beer Run Peter Farrelly (ur.green book) disappeared into the bowels of Apple TV + without much fanfare.
Difficult to rate
- Empire of Light – Theatrical release: March 2, 2023
- Glass Bow: Mystery of Knives – still open
- she said – December 8, 2022
From critics was for Empire of Light basically “me”. But director Sam Mendes celebrates the magic of cinema in a film that is sure to resonate with the Academy. With ten films due for Oscar nominations next year, this could be Empire of Light possibly in the top 10. However, this feat glass bow execute. funny successor Get the knives was thrilled to see it premiere, and the fact that Netflix is testing a new strategy for releasing the film should certainly be well received at the Academy. You can also use the “laughing tenth”. she said will. We are talking about the investigation of the Harvey Weinstein case. First reviews attract comparisons spotlight, but they say that Maria Schrader’s film is not quite of that quality. The team around Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan can be tight.
Question marks
- Avatar: Path of Water – Theatrical release: December 14, 2022
- Babylon – January 19, 2023
- Black Panther: Wakanda Forever – November 9, 2022
How much space is there for blockbusters at the 2023 Oscars? Top Shooter: Maverick Looks like he definitely has a Best Picture nomination. Will another big project join the Tom Cruise sequel? Or even several? Praise the first voices from the world premiere Black Panther: Wakanda Forever necessarily in the highest tones. The film is said to be even better than the debut, which was nominated for seven Oscars (including Best Picture) and won three golden statues. But quality is not necessarily decisive here. The first black panthers was a pop culture phenomenon and a giant step forward in terms of blockbuster representation. This bonus is not included in the sequel. James Cameron is also working on a sequel. Avatar: Path of Waterto take part in the Oscars again. The first avatar there was a trick-miracle of technology, the likes of which were not seen at that time. Is the second part just “more of the same” or another leap in technology?
Probably has the best chance of being nominated in this trio. Babylon. Damien Chazelle’s wild homage to 1920s Hollywood looks like a mixture The wolf of Wall Street, The Great Gatsby and his la la country. Movies about the industry of dreams always do well, why Babylon He speaks. Now all the movie has to do is knock you off your feet like the trailer did.
There is almost certainly
one. Fabelmans – Theatrical release: January 26, 2022
2. Banshee of Inisherina – January 12, 2023
3. TAR – February 23, 2023
four. Top Shooter: Maverick – already on VoD/Blu-ray
5. All Everywhere All at once – already on VoD/Blu-ray
6. women talk – still open
7. WHALE – still open
The Oscar nominations are still a long way from being announced, but seven out of ten places appear to have already been taken. Semi-autobiographical drama by Steven Spielberg. Fabelmans is a big favorite and should be beaten at the award ceremony. Banshee of Inisherina close behind. Also intense conductor drama TAP almost certainly takes a place in the category of kings, especially thanks to the brilliant performance of Cate Blanchett. Near Top Shooter: Maverickperhaps the most accomplished blockbuster since the Oscar-winning Mad Max: Fury Roadthere is just as little to worry about here as there is about a creative explosion. All Everywhere All at once. Thrilling Drama women talk as well as WHALE will also garner a lot of votes thanks to Oscar-worthy performances by Jessie Buckley, Claire Foy and Brendan Fraser. So it’s still a race for the three remaining spots in the Best Picture category. So it remains exciting.
The Oscar nominations will be announced on January 23, 2023. The award ceremony will take place on the night of March 12-13, 2023.
