"The Favourite" and "Roma" lead the Oscar nominations with 10 each. Other movies nominated for Best Picture include "Black Panther" (7 nominations), "BlacKkKlansman" (6), "Bohemian Rhapsody" (5), "Green Book" (5), "A Star Is Born" (8) and "Vice" (8).


Hoping for a "Roma" win for Best Picture.

Of those I need to see “Roma”, “The Favorite”, “A Star Is Born”, and “Greeb Book”.

Also, I hope “Bao” wins for animated short.

It's certainly the best short of that category, but "One Small Step" would also be a worthy winner.

Not really excited about the Oscars this year, like i have been in the prior ones. There is something about this years films that just don't click with me. Not one really stood out for me to root for it. And there are many little things in a bunch of them that keep me from caring.

 

The one thing that i'm certain though, is that Ali doesn't deserve to get a second Oscar in such a short time, while in history, there have been so many all time greats, that barely got one, and some never did...

I have heard of exactly two of the nominated movies and seen none of them. I feel left behind :p 

 

You didn't miss much. :p

 

I am yet to see Roma, Vice, Green Book and The Favorite, however the other Best Picture nominees are forgettable, to say the least...

    • Suspect this will have major consequences for the Paralympics going forward. Could see a collation of countries wanting to set up up a rivial movement, 
    • This is the rule of FIFA : If Iran withdraw  Iraq will qualify even if they lose  If they win Emirats will qualify 
    • We will need a lot od changes in our staff after this season and I hope our federation will have the money for that`s. Unfortunately, your staff and ski services blew almost the entire Olympics and now we're still in the same situations. Due to their terrible form, we won 1/2 fewer medals than we actually did. Our team has skis on par with Moldova or Kazakhstan – shame!
    • Anning is not here but the new 400 meters format is (2x final heats of 4 athletes each, combined times decide podium).   Natalia Bukowiecka absolutely blasted it and I guess that's a popular feeling among athletes 
    • Team selected.  Quite a strong one.   Men 60m - Jeremiah Azu, Jody Smith 800m - Ben Patterson 1500m - Jack Higgins, James McMurray* 3,000m - Josh Kerr* Heptathlon - Lewis Church* High jump - Joel Clarke Khan* Pole vault - Owen Heard* Shot put - Scott Lincoln*   Women 60m - Dina Asher-Smith, Amy Hunt 60m hurdles - Abigail Pawlett*, Emma Nwofor* 400m - Yemi Mary John, Louisa Stoney* 800m - Issy Boffey, Keely Hodgkinson 1500m - Georgia Hunter Bell, Jemma Reekie 3,000m - Hannah Nuttall, Katie Snowden* Pentathlon - Abigail Pawlett*, Ellen Barber* Pole vault - Molly Caudery* Long jump - Molly Palmer* Triple jump - Georgina Forde-Wells* 4x400m relay - Poppy Malik, Louisa Stoney, Tess McHugh, Jazmine Moss (plus athletes selected for individual events)   *Selected subject to securing the required world ranking position     https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/athletics/articles/c3dzzdzlmxvo
