As I was saying on another thread, it's bizarre to be this far into the year and not be speculating about what's in possible contention for awards. This time last year, people were making bold statements and predictions they would come to regret on Oscar night, and let's be honest, that's 95% of the reason we're here. Now obviously, the state of affairs in the world has made it a tricky situation to even guarantee that there will even be an awards season for 2020.
Obviously, the biggest issue we're running into is confirming just what is actually coming out. With the recent discussion about Hamilton's eligibility and Disney's decision to fly into the face of AMPAS and campaign for it anyway, I was wondering what films we are even considering, as we haven't yet put together a master list like we usually do.
So, I'm gonna take a stab at trying to arrange all of the potential contenders based on what we know, and what we can rule out. I will welcome any suggestions and update accordingly.
