Not a lot of changes from any of us but we’ve added two new categories: Original and Adapted Screenplay

KEY:

Introductions

Wesley Lovell: With Narnia moving to 2027 and Michael a critical flop, there are a handful of changes made to these predictions but not many at this juncture.
Pete Patrick: (no commentary provided)
Thomas LaTourette: A bit more time has passed and we are starting to hear about some of these films. Michael was a big hit but not a critical success which means it might only get nominations in technical categories, rather than in some top line categories that I had it in last month. Sandra Hüller is getting raves for performances in four different films so she might be a double nominee. Some pundits say she might get ones for all four films, but that seems unlikely. Questions remain about the quality of Dune: Part Three. The Academy was not kind to Wicked: For Good, so how the Dune sequel does will be interesting to watch. Berlin and Cannes film festivals may help our guesses in the future.
