Aquaman looking very manly : nice undersized pink tuxedo, nice scrunchy on the wrist... Grin

I reckon those are pink 1800s style ruffles on his wrists but he was very embarassed to appear unKhal Drogo like and he folded them hehehehe. The pink suit is fine, however.

Bohemian Rhapsody - 17.00
Black Panther - 34.00
Vice - 51.00

The odds are on these are way too long.

He's only gone and done it, I knew it was too long on the odds - fair enough Rami as actor was alot shorter but I dont think it was ever 17 to 1. Oscar reasoning is like weighted in pure emotion and thats why he won I think. Going way back in time now but also I remember Philadelphia winning and I bet people underestimated Tom Hanks odds at that point too.

Roma - 1.83
Spike Lee (BlacKkKlansman) - 9.00
Christian Bale (Vice) - 2.00
Yalitza Aparicio (Roma) - 17.00

I would bet on those names. They are not necessarily the ones I liked the most. But those are the ones that seem most reasonable to win some money. Rome as a movie is almost certain. Spike Lee sounds like a fun name to bet. Because of his career, by the political positioning he has and for perhaps being the great and unique opportunity for him.

Bale, as well as Rome, seems like a sure bet too. Almost impossible to lose. And he deserves it, is incredible in the film and would be a prize for all the transformations he went through.

Yalitza could be a surprise and bring a good return on the bet.

I was so wrong LOL

And Roma was a safe bet. It really surprises me that they have lost. Whoever has bet on the winners have probably won big as none of them were the favorites.

Bhoemian Rhapsody deserves it all including the cast. However, I'm not very hopeful when it comes to Oscars because they are not known to award the deserving movies but the commercially successful ones. This is all pre-planned and decided before the actual ceremony so don't let your bets fool you.

Lol. Rami Malek bagged the best actor award buddy. Looks like your prediction was off here. I do agree that what you said does tend to happen majority of the time, which is why this is a minority case.

Some people actually feel that Rami does not deserve the Oscar which I find preposterous since he already established himself as a versatile actor thanks to his Mr.Robot role.

On a side note, I'm not a fan of the oscars, they never award comedies and its a crime that Johnny Depp still hasn't won.

Same here. I am not a big fan of these award shows, but I do respect them generally. Johnny Depp is easily one of my favorite actors of this generation and it is seriously silly that he has not been awarded an Oscar yet.

The guy deserves tons of oscars for this insane performances over the years. At least, Leonardo DiCaprio bagged an Oscar at last who was another person who freaking deserved multiple oscars for his stellar performances.

Roma is only the 5th film to be nominated for best picture and best foreign film at the same time. However, it will be the first time in history for a film to win in those 2 categories at the same time if Roma wins both.

I reckon this might not occur. Cold War might win best foreign film and the odds is good on 6.75 hehe.

The odds have changed for the best actor category. Rami Malek is now favorite with 1.44 and Christian Bale with 2.00.

Christian Bale might be better to bet. The last 9 out of 10 actors that won a Golden Globe have also won an Oscar, and Christian Bale won the Golden Globe for best actor for The Vice.

Actually they both won.
Malek is best actor in the Drama category and Bale is best actor in the Musical/Comedy category.

This makes it more confusing hehehe. However, outside of the academy's politics, I reckon Christian Bale did a better job in portraying Dick Cheney than Rami Malek in portraying Freddie Mercury.

@Patatas. I was not happy with the movie. It was just a generic band movie. I wish Sacha Baron Cohen did Freddie Mercury. He might have given us a new angle and more depth on his story. He also has the face for it, Rami Malek did not.

I dont think its predecided like that, its the whole range of votes from the academy holders barring Harvey Weinstein who was removed. Somebody probably does know the count beforehand mostly they do not apart from consensus stated, so they'll be a feeling of who'll win maybe but theres enough diversity that people generally dont know for sure.
They'd surely bet if they could, despite many being rich everyone in acting knows somebody who hasnt had a proper job for years and needs the money ie. word would get out and ruin that tradition, they take it too serious imo

The Oscar Awards are back for all you couch potatoes who also love gambling hehehe.

The ceremony will be on February 24, 2019. Share your predictions! I will share mine after a complete and thorough study hehehehe.

All odds listed are from nitrogensports.eu.

Also, share your predictions on other categories and odds available like best screenplay or best cinematography from other sportsbooks.

Best Picture

Roma - 1.83
Green Book - 5.00
A Star Is Born - 9.00
BlacKkKlansman - 10.00
The Favourite - 11.00
Bohemian Rhapsody - 17.00
Black Panther - 34.00
Vice - 51.00

Best Director

Alfonso Cuaron (Roma) - 1.071
Spike Lee (BlacKkKlansman) - 9.00
Adam McKay (Vice) - 26.00
Pawel Pawlikowski (Cold War) - 26.00
Yorgos Lanthimos (The Favourite) - 26.00

Thanks for sharing these! I am not sure I'm going to bet, but watching the Oscars and making predictions is among my family's traditions. I am still in the process of watching all the key movies, but there's luckily still time for that. What's also interesting is that I remember some betting crypto website a year ago, and the choices of the majority were actually extremely accurate! They guessed like 80% right! Surprises can always happen, of course, like last year with the mix-up of the winner of the "best picture". It makes it pretty exciting to watch.

In any case, there are other categories added in Nitrogensports that are more unpredictable, like best make up and hairstyling with The Vice as favorite with 1.083 and Mary Queen of Scots with 7.50. I reckon period piece movies like Mary Queen of Scots should have good expectations to win in these types of categories.

Watch Roma! It is on Netflix now if you have it. If not, there is always torrents hehehe. There is no excuse not to be able to watch the latest movies anymore.

I've seen the trailer and honestly this is exactly the kind of movie I don't care about, all about style, photography but no real story or characters (I really don't like Terrence Malick's movies for example).
Tell me I'm wrong, that this is more than a "beautiful long clip" and I might watch it... eventually.

Terrence Malik is different. He has an unrelatable style that maybe only his filmmaker peers or the critic would understand and admire, I reckon.

Alfonso Cuaron's films is about human emotion in the face of adversity that all ordinary moviegoers can relate to. Watch Y Tu Mama Tambien, one of his earlier work.

I am gutted that bohemian rhapsody is on the list.
The movie is nothing like what happened. It is really grotesque. The only good thing in the movie, the OST!

Same thiught goes my mind. I have seen Bohemian Rhapsody and it really deserve to to win the Oscars best picture.

I've only seen Green Book, Black Panther, BlacKkKlansman and Bohemian Rhapsody.I think the first one is Oscar material, not the other three.
If I had to bet, I'd go with Roma, Rami Malek, Glenn Close and Spike Lee.

Yeah that's the thing about voting for the Oscars that we should watch all of the movies listed there, i normally watch the new ones later since i'm busy with other things.

This is a pretty good idea though, gambling could be expanded to other areas not only the regular games and sports.
