Oscar Contenders

Alright! Today I'm looking at the movies that have come out this year, and which ones could be nominated for Oscars. The thing I think will win will be highlighted in blue. And yes, I know that Rotten Tomatoes has been doing this as well, but you know what? I don't care. I thought of it first. And they've only done Best Actor/Actress, so I really don't care.

Best Picture:
Rocketman

Marriage Story
Us
Joker
1917
Once Upon A Time... in Hollywood
The Irishman
the Last Black Man in San Francisco
Avengers: Endgame - You can't stop me from believing it could happen.


Best Actor:
Taron Egerton as Elton John in Rocketman
Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker in Joker
Leonardo DiCaprio Once Upon A Time in Hollywood
Christian Bale in Ford v Ferrari - It's Christian Bale.
Robert Pattinson in the Lighthouse - I don't know a lot about it, but it seems like the thing the Academy would eat up, so look for it.
Kylo Ren in Marriage Story
A pipe dream would be Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man in Endgame.

I don't know a lot about things other than superhero films. This post was a really big stretch for me.
