Sounds right to me - but the supporting characters here and in The Irishman are a fascinating unknown. I don't know how much Robbie has to do but easily could be in Support......how many Best Supporting Actors are possible here like this is trying to dominate this category with the Scorsese too - and who's the lead Actor here (or are they all support?) - and I already think a couple of the guys here that we think have small roles are actually bigger than we think (still thinking that is true maybe of Pacino, and maybe Olyphant or one other guy?). The Irishman has 5-6 legit contenders there and De Niro in lead - like seriously, if these 2 pictures play out quality wise they need to expand that clusterfnck of a category category or start running ads for Josephine Pesci or something in Supporting Actress

Not leading actor for Leo?? I think that's the most possible nomination along with directing.
I would also add supporting actress for Robbie.

I mean, it's too early to say for a number of reasons, but for the hell of it I'm just gonna say that I'm currently only thinking Supporting Actress for Robbie, a few techs like Production Design and Costume Design, and maaaaybe Supporting Actor for Pacino. I'm really not sold on this being a major contender at all ... I've already written a bit about how I don't expect much love for filmmakers like Scorsese and Tarantino from the Academy these days (though in the case of the former, The Irishman is already making so much noise as an awards contender that it may be a really hard train to derail a year from now...that Netflix controversy might work to its advantage to some extent) ... but I guess this past year the Academy broke almost all of their recent trends in taste so who knows what to expect.

Both Scorsese and QT are constant Oscar contenders for almost every film they make. I guess that won't change a year from now. OK, their last efforts were not successful oscar-wise (h8ful and Silence) but all the previous ones in the last decade won about 10 Oscars and 20 other noms. Of course Marty's collaboration with Netflix could change things, for better or worse. Who's the lead Leo or Pitt? both I guess that's true.

I'm gonna be the negative nellie (in comparison to others here) and say that I really don't have the vibes that it's going to be a huge locked-in Oscar superstar, but at the same time, it's a sprawling period piece, which theoretically would make it a shoo-in for nominations like Costume Design, Production Design, and Editing. Richardson's beloved by the Oscars and managed to net a nomination for a locked-room movie with Tarantino, so you'd have to figure he's in, too.
Which leads me to the above-the-line categories. Screenplay is probable, and with the expanded Picture category it's likelier than not to have a shot if it's well-received and/or does solid business (which Tarantino films almost always do). DiCaprio just won, and this will be his first test to see if he can get back into the thick of it, or if they move on now that he's been recognized. We don't really know much about what the supporting ensemble will be, other than the fact that he got some big names, but I think two will be on most people's lips. Pacino, due to his perceived banner year, but we don't know the size of his role here or even if he'll have the plummier part (I've heard rumors that Olyphant might be the one to watch for in terms of this film's male supporting cast). And then there's Margot Robbie, who is arguably going to be the character people pay the most attention to because of who she's playing and the potential controversial handling of it.
But if they stick the landing, Robbie could very well be the one who reaps the benefits the most. She's been killing it this decade, got nominated for playing a controversial real-life figure (to the point people actually were thinking Tonya freakin' Harding's image was rehabilitated), was right on the cusp of getting an afterglow nod this past season, and this could very well be a winning role for her. But it's still an uphill climb, just because there's a lot of pitfalls in play. I definitely think we're gonna see a lot of thinkpieces about this movie, at the very least.
That said, I feel more confident in it as an Oscar player than Scorsese's film.

I love almost all of the Tarantino movies, and I hope to love this one too, but that's besides the point. I just don't see this as a major awards contender right now. I could see a supporting acting nomination or two, and Tarantino is always a risk for a screenplay nomination. In terms of Picture and Director, it is just way too soon to tell. It isn't like a Tarantino film is guaranteed to get in. Prior to the expansion only one did, and post the expansion they are only 2 out of 3. He himself even missed for Django, when it made it into Picture and the Academy seemed to really like that film.
At this early stage I'm saying Screenplay, 1 acting nomination and perhaps Production Design, Costume Design and maybe Hair / Make Up.

I could see this getting a mixed response and it seems like the Academy would be afraid of a Charles Manson movie even if it's good. I could see it getting some techs and an acting nod if one of the performances is really good. Let's remember Tarantino's only been nominated for BD twice.

I could see it getting some techs and an acting nod if one of the performances is really good. Let's remember Tarantino's only been nominated for BD twice. How come it gets mixed response while it was handled by super hot and experienced people! Leo, Pitt and pacino would not just waste their time and join the project if they knew it would become a messy mediocre stuff. If Weird romance like Shape of Water or a basic racist movie like Green Book can take BP why can't this? Well IDK, maybe it'll be the greatest movie of all time, no one's seen it yet. There've been plenty of movies with great casts that wound up sucking, though. I'm just saying it sounds like the kind of thing that's going to be really 50/50 polarizing, and Manson is one of those topics that the Hollywood bigwigs who make up the Academy voters really don't like talking about. There's a reason there's never been a major motion picture about Manson until now, despite the enormous commercial potential, and it took a maverick like Tarantino to get it made.
