Brendan Fraser is the favorite over everyone for best actor? I am shocked hehehe.

In any case, I will share the latest news updates if I see them.

[Daltonik]

In my opinion, even the preliminary bets on the presented favorites have quite decent odds, of course, they will be adjusted by the beginning of the Oscar ceremony, but the number of nominees is very large and it seems very difficult to determine the winner here just by watching from the side.

[Sithara007]

It is difficult to place bet on the best film, when we don't have the opportunity to watch it yet. The Fabelmans will be releasing next week. I have heard a lot of good reviews about this film, but again, won't trust them unless I get an opportunity to watch it. Second in the list is Babylon, which will be released next month. Big budget movie starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie. Everything Everywhere All at Once was released a few months back, but I am yet to watch this movie. It is tricky and onerous to place a bet, solely relying on third party reviews.

And we didn't see him this good in his previous films. It's a really painful performance and for someone watching it is very touching. His daughter adds the emotion when Charlie reconciles.  but I think the factor that made the whale good to watch is that people relate to the movie. You can see a lot of people must have seen themselves struggling with a body like Charlie's.

Brendan may actually win.

[Yatsan]

Surprised that there betting games for things as such 'coz I'm not aware except for peer to peer betting alone. Well, I've hear alike betting from my friends who are into hollywood artists but that is limited to our circle alone.

This also my concern. Candidates or nominees would be a large pool, also, are criteria given to the public or atleast for the gamblers? form them to be able to take a hint on who's having greater advantage. Quite interesting, I think I'd stick with sportsbetting because it is where I'm goid at and also, celeberities, movies, and such are not thing.

[Chikito]

Best Actor

When talking about the best actor, I just remembered the best actor in 2022, will smith slapping Chris rock at that event. is he in the nomination? Because when I look at him in the trailer for his new movie, Emancipation he looks good and totally plays peter, a slave who almost died because of being whipped and escaping from his life. From what I know, Will Smith being banned for 10 years, but is there no forgiveness? Maybe better to voter watch his new movie before making a decision. I'm sure they will change it.

This is for "The Whale" movie, right?
I haven't watched it yet so I will try later and if ever it goes well then the favorites may be correct.
Adam Sandler should be a good contender in this section too. He did great in the movie "The Hustle" combining drama and comedy.
But I don't see him yet in the frontrunners of the Best Actor category.

I am assuming "The Fabelmans" will probably win it as it was the story of young Spielberg. Then, of course, he will also win the Best Director category.

The question is how can they say it's good when the film isn't released yet? Are they judging it easily based on the trailer? But there is a saying that don't judge the book by its cover. I've seen many good trailers but when I watch the movie or play the game in full, I got disappointed.

If you are interested to bet on these events then you better allocate some time of watching the movie so that you can easily decide if what titles will you bet on. Also, a big budget movie doesn't always mean that it was a great movie but sometimes a small budget movie can be better than them so we shouldn't only focus on it as a criteria for judging the film.

The odds will be adjusted by a few considerations by the odds makers. I have learned from doing this every year that those adjustments come when the list of nominations for all the categories are announced, after the date when the academy of motion pictures and sciences vote, the Golden Globe awards, the Actor's Guild awards and the Director's Guild awards.

I will create and share a list and include the dates then we will observe what changes in the odds occur.

I was pointing out the fact that common people like me are yet to watch these movies. But the reviewers have already watched them, as these films have been shown in various film festivals around the world. But the big question here is whether we want to trust these reviewers or not, without actually watching the entire movie. Normally I don't make a bet, if I don't have sufficient information. 95% of the time, I make bets on sports events. Elections and others events such as Oscars are second priority.

[bbc.reporter]

@Sithara007. I have not watched much of those movies also hehehe. This is very strange for me because the pandemic is over.

In any case, for bettors these are the important dates that might change the odds.

Golden Globe Awards - January 10, 2023
Oscars nominations announcement - January 24, 2023
Director's Guild Awards - February 18,  2023
Actor's Guild Awards - February 25, 2023
Oscars final voting - March 2, 2023 - March 7, 2023

The Oscar awards for 2022 witnessed Coda with the shocking win of the best picture category. It was very much unexpected. I reckon if we followed the important dates in 2022's Oscar awards thread, we might have found the changes in odds and make a more educated prediction hehehe.

[Slow death]

It's very strange how in this Oscar they manage to choose the best actors, most of the time actors that I think are better don't even appear in the Oscars, it's very strange. as for Brendan Fraser, it is definitely a big exaggeration that he is at odds of @1.83 while in my opinion Hugh Jackman is better than him but Hugh Jackman is at odds of @ 9.00, this is something quite exaggerated, it seems that he is a bad actor, i don't understand how these oddsmakers are analyzing actors

Cate Blanchett is a good actress and the oddsmakers are giving her as the favorite, but I prefer Margot Robbie, she is a good actress, in her Suicide Squad movies it was a character that made me laugh, she played the character well in my opinion

[bitgolden]

I think the idea of Oscars is something that is getting a bit of attention these days, and that’s the part that I am most interested in. There are superhero movies from Disney that I love so much, and nowadays the idea of "Oscar movie" is getting more mainstream as well, getting a lot more big name people too. Back in the day Oscar was something like this, but somewhere in the middle Oscars started to mean "boring, look at the drying wall for 30 minutes, cut your wrists out of boredom" movie, from like 2000 to 2020 or so it was like that.

But, quite recently we started to see some big names, and it’s proven this year with Spielbergs "sort of biography" type of his own movie, and also brad pitt margot robbie movie babylon, all of which is a big Hollywood movies and all deserve to have an Oscar one way or another.

You are right, there are many films that are very beunas, auunque to be honest there are many of the super heroes that I do not like at all, although I am not against many things, I do not like that they show so many freedoms to children, because I consider that their formation must first be given and forge a person, and when his personality is defined that for me it is at age 18 (for some, because there are some who do not mature) can affect them in their formation, then I as a father I am Very delicate as for the children's connide is shown, maybe I am very jealous, but I really do not agree, so far the only movie that I found very good is that of Top Gun 2, I have not had much Oporrtunida To watch films in its entirety, another movie that has told me that I liked Batman.

Kids easily pick up ideas that are actually bad for them and not all parents can guide all the time on what the kids are watching. You can only notice it when the kid does something and you realize you did not teach them about it.

I find it hard to find time to watch films these days as well even when I'm very interested in films and the best director. Nowadays, I may just decide to watch the movie to find out why it won an oscar. Or when someone slaps a host again.

The oddsmakers do not list the odds because of who we think are the best actors or actresses are. They list it based on the reviews behind each performances, speculations on who might be favored by voters of different awards organizations and it might also be because the oddsmakers know the politics behind the movie industry. Much of the odds made by them are adjusted when new information begins to circulate, however.

Actually, as far as I am concerned the Oscar Awards had been losing relevance and public in a consistent way for a while now. It seems people are not longer as interested as they once were. The only reason the last Awards had so much relevance and spotlight was because Will Smith lost his cool and decided to slap Chris Rock in a shameless way.

I would not be surprised the people behind the planning of the Oscars 2023 (aware of this) planned to turn the event into another scandal for the sake of increasing the ratings. If happens, the Oscars will slowly devolve into a circus as years pass

[bbc.reporter]

@couch potatoes. I have updated the odds. It appears that the argument on Brendan Fraser as the best actor for his acting role in the movie The Whale has become stronger hehe. I am presently very curious now on this. There were articles saying that he went binge eating for this role to reach more than 300 pounds.



There were some changes in the top 5 for best picture, very big changes for top 5 of best actress and no changes for best director.

Also, this article about Steven Spielberg was published by Gold Derby. They might be brainwashing us that Spielberg is certain to win best director hehehehe.

Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) has yet to be released on december 16th. It was recently claimed that Avatar TWOW is the most expensive film in history with a whopping $300+ million dollar budget. Given that it will likely have a strong climate change and environmental message. The theme of it could align with current events in a way that will cause annual events like the oscars to throw awards at James Cameron and Avatar. The only thing Avatar TWOW is missing is Greta Thunberg and Al Gore cameo appearances.

Guillermo Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities mini series was probably the best film content I saw produced in 2022.

Everything else has unfortunately fallen short of expectations.

Well, if you're right, sometimes there are things that children can see at a certain moment and we can't have enough speed to capture them, in fact, in my case I have to be very aware of my son, well With his mother he began to watch things from horror movies and that caused him terrible damage, because he has to sleep accompanied, of course he did that while I was not there, because we are no longer with my child's mother, currently I have another wife and a baby, and to remove that fear from my 7-year-old son is very difficult, it has cost me a lot, so sometimes because of someone's ignorance the children suffer.
