Most for sure thought it was going to be broken last year with La La Land. But that's only because LLL was the frontrunner for so long; I think we can all agree Moonlight was the runner-up and the only real threat to LLL. THIS year, however, I feel there is no clear frontrunner or runner-up. Also, I heard about screeners not being sent in on time to everyone and deadlines being missed. The whole SAG process this year sounded like a disaster.
Three Billboards isn't really a critic/fan favorite like other other past black comedies (Birdman, Silver Linings etc.). I guarantee many will call it overrated if it emerges as the frontrunner. It will be this years La La Land. Get Out especially isn't the type of film to win best picture. The Big Sick and Mudbound have been non-existent up until this point so I don't see either of those winning BP. Then there's Lady Bird. It's really the only film nominated for best cast ensemble that I can see winning. But then again I'm not so sure. I feel the Academy would rather reward a bigger film than that. That's why I was floored to see The Post and Shape of Water missing. I was actually ready to call them my frontrunners until today.
As of today, I'm still as clueless about who will win BP as I was months ago. I still believe it's a race between Lady Bird, Shape of Water, The Post, CMBYN, Dunkirk and Three Billboards.
