Based on the raves and the studio behind it, I think it probably be a top 3-5 BP contender, but I have trouble seeing it actually winning, unlike what some people are already predicting.

Based on the raves and the studio behind it, I think it probably be a top 3-5 BP contender, but I have trouble seeing it actually winning, unlike what some people are already predicting. Yes, I'm not sure if it's because I still need time to adjust to the reviews because I thought it might be too out there as far as being a top 3-5 BP contender, and I also wasn't that confident in del Toro because his work seemed to take a major dip, imo, after Pan's Labyrinth, but I'm still not sold on this winning Best Picture just yet. Admittedly it does have a lot going for it that recent BP winners have had in their favor (SAG Ensemble nomination or win is certainly on the table, Original Screenplay is in contention, screened at Venice/Telluride/Toronto, good bet for Audience Award winner at TIFF or one of the runners-up, del Toro is now one of the two front-runners for Best Director and maybe all three amigos will win Best Director in the '10s), but I'm still unsure because a sci-fi film hasn't won BP yet, although one will win someday, and it's female lead which is another strike against it. Plus, earlier this month at AW, there were some rumblings about plagiarism from a student film that's out there. I'm not sure how close the two actually are, but from the trailer it did seem like the shared a lot of similarities. If there was some kind of kernel of truth there, which I don't think there will be, but if there is, I don't think it will hurt its nomination chances, but I do think it would hurt it's chances of winning. |

I'm not predicting it to win best picture myself, I just think a nomination is possible.
As for that student film thing, that seems like it's pushing me. It's probably just a coincidence.

Will definitely be a BP contender. I've had it in my most anticipated since the beginning of the year now, so this is great news!

This is awesome and it means my boy Nolan has some serious competition in the likes of Spielberg, PTA, Bigelow, Aronofsky and GDT.
