Feels like the safest bet since Slumdog, if not Return of the King. Lol, the Oscar gods got me with this one.

Lol, the Oscar gods got me with this one. The one time you actually commit to a prediction, it backfires It always happens, every year. That's why I always go in predicting my favorites to fall short, so that when they do wind up winning, I'm happy.

Ah don't worry about it, you could be the guy that was obnoxiously predicting a Chastain snub. What a chump that guy is.

I actually thought it would be hilarious if, after all of this, Stewart actually did wind up winning, but she had to go through the fucking ringer to earn it.

good news for Power of the Dog is that my BP predictions have been wrong every year going back to 2014 apart from Nomadland, and right now I'm predicting CODA

What were you predicting in 2017? I remember The Shape of Water being the overwhelming favourite going in.

I remembering thinking the actor's branch would give it the win.

Differences are: A) Power of the Dog isn't in foreign language, which is a hindrance, even if Parasite managed to overcome it; B) Because of pandemic, the anti-Netflix bias is smaller. Anti-Netflix, in Spanish, black and white, movie about a Mexican maid won't resonate with all the American and European audiences, etc, you name it.
So things against TPOTD: -netflix -homophobes -older republican voters who take issue with the critique of masculinity (actually toxis masc, but some people won't see it that way) -fairly unemotional movie -been a while since I saw it, but isn't it a very "american" movie? does it have international appeal -I'm also getting a La La Land vibe in that it's been the frontrunner for so long, that people might get bored of it. There's still a long time before voting startsand regarding your point B) above, is there evidence of that? seems like an assumption to me oh wow oh wow. might have been wrong with my belfast prediction, but this is looking more and more true.
