2025 Oscar Predictions - Best Picture

[@DistrictAF]

We love you austin

[@AustinBurke]

Aww thanks so much!:)

[@VabatoshBisi]

Hopefully Dune 2 gets the recognition it deserves at the Oscars..

[@FreeFree-ur4zq]

DUNE 2 was boring and stupid. The worms were asinine and Tim sucked. Austin Butler was good 😁

[@kashoot4782]

Can we talk about how crazy it is that The Substance is going to (very likely) be an Oscar contender ( complimentary). Even for the other horror movies nominated for best picture, I think this is is easily the most batshit, and I’m hereeee for it. F genre bias, if a film’s fantastic, then it’s fantastic, and that should be the only factor

[@AustinBurke]

Agreed WILD! But I love it

[@the_hughman_spider]

In a fair world dune 2 wins every award

[@AustinBurke]

Correct

[@elivincent3795]

most overrated movie ever lmao

[@MC-wc8mi]

Yes - actor, actress, supporting actor and actress, please!

[@NinthShinigami]

Dune Part Two and Anora. Please Academy. At least these two. At the very least these two

[@AustinBurke]

Agreed

[@mr.w9222]

The fact that Dune: Part 2 isn’t blowing every other film out of the water this awards season is just one more symptom of the out-of-touch nature of the movie industry. Everyone knows cinema is in worse shape than it should be. Great art has staying power, and only one film this year is immortal.

[@DaveNetWorld]

Those are the ten I have Austin right now. I will be paying close attention to the PGA Top 10 when it comes out & the BAFTA nominations to solidify things. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

[@AustinBurke]

Merry Christmas!

[@ajytabbott2004]

We have the same 10. I'm fairly confident we've got this correct, Austin 👌 It's really a shame that Sing Sing hasn't been getting as much love from the awards crowd as it deserves. Honestly, as long as Denis Villeneuve walks away with Best Director I will be happy. If not, I will be riding a sandworm straight to the Academy

[@kjohnsto1]

I'm worried about Sing Sing and Clarence Macklin. I haven't managed to watch all the other contenders yet but it's my favourite so far, and I don't really see any of the others overtaking it for me personally.

[@MagnitudeReviews]

Yeah your Best Picture ten is the same as mine. I’d lower The Substance further down the list to #9 as it could be knocked out due to it being a well body horror film. And I think it’s only a very small minority backlashing against Anora. Which is why I still give it the edge to be the current frontrunner. That could change when I’m actually able to watch The Brutalist.

[@filmnoirpic]

Jesse Eisenberg is star, writer, producer for A Real Pain. He's in for screenplay. But I don't think he's a big enough name to get a 2nd nod for Best Picture.

[@matthewmartinez3774]

DUNE 2 CMONN!!

[@AustinBurke]

Yep 🥲

[@AntsTheaterCorner2698]

It's a sequel like two towers. It won't win or none at all because of the Return of the King effect. Messiah will do it, or not. 😬.

[@paradisecity0406able]

'Anora' and 'The Brutalist' are the front runners.

[@MagnitudeReviews]

Anora’s backlash feels like it’s coming from a tiny minority of people who do not work in the industry and are not academy voters.

[@monetlu8812]

I hope Dune gets a nomination! Love the technical , music , cinematography and story! ❤

[@hamdialihassan1048]

Just started but I’m sure he’ll mention Dune part 2, Challengers and Wicked

[@DeeveBaker]

It's so funny...I agree with almost everything you bring to the table. I absolutely LOVED Emilia Perez. Never seen anything like it.

[@RobertParks-h7r]

MIKEY MADISON IS A REVELATION. NUFF SAID.

[@lennysadofsky7956]

The Brutalist, Conclave, Anora, Wicked, Emilia Pérez, Sing Sing, a Real Pain, A Complete Unknown, Nickel Boys, Dune2…….no for The Substance, Gladiator2,

[@johnpoffenbarger5103]

Ricky Stanicky snubbed again 😂

[@urmum9173]

AYYY, YATSO!

[@TheDisruptiveOne]

A Real Pain might get in. AFI had them in their top 10. It is really that simple for me.

[@AustinBurke]

Yeah it’s possible

[@pankushmahajan4598]

All we Imagine is Light is a masterpiece, Go see it everyone !

[@jacobfleming3926]

Where’s Madam Web?

[@Erasureeraser]

Rooting for Mikey Madison to win Best Actress

[@salvatoresultana4058]

HM: The Beekeeper

[@AustinBurke]

Dang I forgot, thank you

[@judyvip5704]

Yup! Get working on other categories.

[@AustinBurke]

You got it.

[@FreeFree-ur4zq]

MADAME WEB for best picture and Sydney Sweeney for best supporting actress. Easily.

[@crazyblade8991]

movie I’ve seen in your top 10 dune 2 I didn’t think it was that great. My favorite so far in 2024 don’t think it’ll win anything Civil War can you talk about best foreign films? Your next video.

[@matheuslascasas134]

Im still here! Let’s do it academy. It’s better than a lot of what’s actually in the lineup Look at the IMDb score

[@AustinBurke]

I’ve seen it Thought it was great! Prefer it over quite a few of these

[@PaulSmith-xc7vt]

The past 20 years have been the worst best picture nominations I've seen in a long time.

[@eliputnamm]

Has everyone forgotten about dune 2??!!

[@AustinBurke]

Apparently!

[@stephenhakimi2375]

Anora for best picture please

[@killert_7759]

DUNE SWEEP (please 😭)

[@nitinpatel1039]

We all can agree on two awards Ralph winning best actor and guy Pearce best supporting, best picture will go to brutalist. Best actress is toss up between Cynthia and Jolie, best director will be keenly watched no clear winner their, Arina will win best supporting female

[@ayoubmextress65]

you’re loud and wrong

[@jurney3478]

So baffled by these choices.

[@bernardosaucedo3901]

We all SO dont agree.

[@dcpapi]

Emilia Perez, Anora and the brutalist are top three

[@traydevon]

Faith in humanity should’ve been lost long ago if ever. 😅

[@AustinBurke]

Yup

[@13ckarr]

Wicked is going to win

[@Y.d.o.b.o.n]

Anora doesnt feel like a best picture winner

[@user-CatherineDodd]

The Brutalist is an american masterpiece. I rarely seen a film like this anymore. I hope it wins best picture.

[@Themoomabides]

We have the same top 10 on Awards Watch. I was just as annoyed by Emilia Perez as you were…yet I get the appeal. But I hated Nickel Boys. Hated its film school condescending style. Not one authentic moment or character reaction.

[@davidgreene9282]

No Nosferatu?? 😮

[@AustinBurke]

Unfortunately… it’s not getting in

[@jaguarkaboom8967]

conclave, the substance and emilia perez were the best of the year anora and brutalist and wicked are okay dune should not be there

[@AustinBurke]

Stop that 😂

[@alexstanton83]

Challengers deserved more

[@AustinBurke]

Yes it did

[@PaulSmith-xc7vt]

If Wicked wins best picture I am done with the Oscars totally

[@dcpapi]

You Online film bros don’t know what’s coming. Emilia Perez is going to sweep

[@AustinBurke]

I needed a good throw up this morning, thanks

[@RobertParks-h7r]

Ive taking craps that smell better then that movie.

[@AntsTheaterCorner2698]

Watch Wicked dominate in a similar way Chicago did. It checks all the boxes.

[@AustinBurke]

You’re not wrong

[@eliputnamm]

Emilia Perez sucks why is it getting so much buzz?

[@Tricki_Woo]

I think “The Brutalist” won’t win for best picture because young Oscar voters would not want to watch a three and a half hour movie.

[@JamesElliott-ne9rg]

Also, it is not a great movie. I see 100 theatrical releases each year. Unwatchable. Walkout bad.

[@Tricki_Woo]

@ Oh well, to each their own. There’s no accounting for taste.

[@JamesElliott-ne9rg]

@@Tricki_Woo Right back at you.

[@Tricki_Woo]

@@JamesElliott-ne9rg Na! I don’t think so. I like the movie.. You’re the curmudgeon one. So, you have the sole ownership of that feeling.

[@AustinBurke]

“I see 100 theatrical releases each year” I’m gonna chalk that one up to a “nahhhh” 😂

[@Athleticmaleuk]

Who cares

[@AustinBurke]

Your mom cares
