Just to add that I am disappointed that Uncut Gems (2019) didn't get any nominations. Film was finally released via Netflix last friday, and i must say it's one of the best films of 2019, for me top 3 probably. I am not a fan of Adam Sandler, but he kicked ass in the role of self-destructive diamonds merchant, and imho he deserved the nomination for his role. Directors, brothers Safdie also deserved the nomination.

Well, it is still some time left... 2 more days  actually.

I'm curious though, why nobody else joined the contest.

I organized myself 2 merit giveaways in the Romanian board, but in 2 months only 1 applied. It seems very intriguing.

Indeed you kept them 

I hope at least 3 people to join the contest 

Loool it would be funny to be the only participant and win the second place, right?

But remember what I said in my first post:

I was the first who announced his participation and I was indeed the first who posted his prediction I kept my word!

Ok for the best picture I think 1917 can win
Best director I think you are right too, even if I don't really enjoy "the Irishman "

If you are the only one to join the contest .. you will win the first prize by default

Looking forward for the update. Thx for letting us know!

Hi, yes it is still running, I had to finished personal projects but I'm back 
I will post the forms tonight to join the contest 

yeah any update OP if this will continue?if not then better lock the thread since Oscar is near to come and we will be having our predictions on whos to win though i have already my set of individual soon to be winners lol.

Any news on this thread?

The forum is not only for people who want to talks about Crypto, that's what there is off topic sections.
Because I don't want to put crypto as a price and do not want to create a pool (to avoid "scamming" problems ) I put the contest here.
But I agree with you, if it was possible on my side I will have put some.

Like said in purple in the post  :
If the rules of this contest are against the rules of the section or if a section is more appropriate, feel free to PM me or inform me  and I will edit it  Smiley


If you and other people have the same feeling about the contest and I can understand that, I will remove the rules and just run a normal contest. That's not a problem for me and I hope you will join the contest too.

I wish you a good day

Count me in

Yes of course but welcome here 

We can have an idea of the nominees thanks to the golden globes : https://www.goldenglobes.com/winners-nominees
