Everything Everywhere All at Once
The Banshees of Inisherin
The Fablemans
Top Gun: Maverick
TAR
Elvis
Avatar: The Way of the Water
All Quiet on the Western Front
The Whale
Women Talking
Possibilities:
Babylon
Triangle of Sadness
Aftersun
RRR
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever
The Woman King

9/10: Triangle of Sadness instead of The Whale (which I now don't have to see!)
Best Director
Steven Spielberg, The Fablemans
Todd Field, TAR
Daniel Kwan, Daniel Scheinert, Everything Everywhere All at Once
Martin McDonagh, The Banshees of Inisherin
Edward Berger, All Quiet on the Western Front
Possibilities:
Baz Luhrmann, Elvis

Joseph Kosinski, Top Gun: Maverick
Ruben Ostland, Triangle of Sadness
Gina Prince-Blythewood, The Woman King
Sarah Polley, Women Talking
SS Rajamouli, RRR
Park Chan-Wook, Decision to Leave
Charlotte Wells, Aftersun
Damien Chazelle, Babylon
Best Director often goes in interesting directions... it's pretty likely someone major misses (see last year with Dennis Villeneuve and Dune) in favor of someone we assume is on the outside.
4/5: Ostlund instead of Berger. They always have the one European director!
Best Actor
Brendan Fraser, The Whale
Austin Butler, Elvis
Colin Farrell, The Banshees of Inisherin
Bill Nighy, Living
Paul Mescal, Aftersun
Possibilities
Tom Hanks, A Man Called Otto
Tom Cruise, Top Gun: Maverick
Gabriel LaBelle, The Fablemans
Adam Sandler, Hustle
Jeremy Pope, The Inspection
Hugh Jackman, The Son
Diego Calva, Babylon
The top 3 are SUPER locked up, and Nighy is very likely. The 5th slot feels competitive.
5/5. Nailed it!
Best Actress
Cate Blanchett, TAR
Michelle Yeoh, Everything Everywhere All at Once
Ana de Armas, Blonde
Danielle Deadwyler, Till
Viola Davis, The Woman King
Possibilities
Michelle Williams, The Fablemans

Olivia Colman, Empire of Light
Jennifer Lawrence, Causeway
Cate and Michelle will be battling for the Oscar. After that, I'm not quite sure what to expect. The last 3 slots are giving me heartburn!
3/5. Danielle and Viola BOTH miss for Michelle Williams and..... in a huge schock Andrea Riseborough.
Best Supporting Actor
Ke Huy Quan, Everything Everywhere All at Once
