Topic: Top 5 Movies Predicted to Win 2020 Oscar for Best Picture (Read 280 times)

But which among the movies listed in the OP do you think will win?

I was once an avid movie goer, but has limited my hobby to quite an extent after I got involved in Bitcoin. Even before I got to know about Bitcoin, I was an addictive torrenter (uploader and downloader of movies, TV Shows, comics) and was managing a torrent site as well. At times I even go to theatre, record movies through a cam and upload them in popular torrent websites  This was an addictive hobby for me right from my childhood and hence I do own 15 TB data of hard disk loaded with movies, TV Shows and Comics 

I am a great fan of Star Wars movies (excluding The Last Jedi and The Phantom Menace) and novels and apart from that I do have a major interest in DC movies too. I have seen 3 of the above mentioned movies (The Irishman only for Martin Scorsese, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood for 'Dicaprio and Tarantino' and Joker since it was a DC movie). I feel that Joker was a celebration of comic book character with its own origin story and had a very dark approach towards the character. For most of the time, I prefer watching Dark movies like Joker and BvS rather than going for Justice League.

Though the new Disney takeover of Star Wars was not really successful except Rogue One, we still have 'not bad' hopes on 'The Rise of Skywalker'. They are the culmination of 40 year old saga which puts a definitive end to the Skywalker era!

I didn't see all the other movies but I did watched Joker and I picked it among the nominees in your poll and I must say Joaquin deliver a great acting here my all time joker favorite is Heath Ledger and if he is alive he might dot his role, but Joaquin Phoenix deliver what is needed for this kind of role as JOKER, hopefully he wins but I still have to see the other nominees.

Joker of course.
It is the movie which created a huge buzz around its name and the one that it was most seen by people. Apart from that, the first actor playing Joker made an amazing performance (he might win an Oscar as well).

I would like to see the JOKER win and I hope it does after reading about Joaquin Phoenix's eating disorder

It was masterful performance but I did not watch those other ones so they might be more deserving.

If the movie would touch the heart of its audience then it might be nominated as to compete for the best pictures. For now, Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker is leading the way as the best picture for his movie and possibly Joaquin might get the Oscar award.
People will have to decide first for this new upcoming movies if they would pass as one of the nominee for the best picture award.

Jojo Rabit is an amazing film, I'm amazed at the idea of the film
they were able to make the idiot version of Hitler very well
I'm sure Jojo will win the Oscar for the best picture category in 2020.

there are some movies that I haven't watched like Waves and Joker
I see a lot of people who support Joker movies, maybe if I have free time I will watch the film.

Btw, it is said, that Ford v Ferrari (that will be out November 15) has high chances of getting an Oscar for the Best picture also. Or at least Bale and Damon will make a good competition for Joaquin Phoenix.

What do you think guys?

I still not watching all of the movies from those lists on the OP but lately i was watching Joker trailer and seems Joaquin Phoenix can be act as the Joker with very well and regardless all of the best movies nominations i think he deserve to be nominated as the best actor and the Joker too was very success and last month this movie was in the top of box office

its because of the title joker  . who would not recognize joker ? if they dont watch the film , they still know who is that joker but joker involved on many good and succesful movies , thats why  .

oh ? some yes but i think the award is different from the box office movies   .

meanwhile my vote will also count for the joker but im not 100 percent sure if it will win this  time   . im just predicting here

I don't understand why so many people think that Joker will 100% win this one. The films which win these awards are usually the ones that don't rake in the big bucks and contain some serious content and this has been the case always.

The Irishman qualifies according to these criteria which is why it has a bigger chance at winning here. If popularity and box office collections were taken into consideration, Joker would win by a big margin and Endgame would win by an even bigger margin.

Joker is better than Maleficent in terms of the graphics and the picture on the movies, I'm not sure if this is the final list for the catergory of Best Picture in Oscar but let's see if Maleficent will be able to get on the list. I only watched Joker on this, and not being biased but I'm confident Joker has the best picture and they have a higher chance to take home this prestigious award next year.

I’m not sure with the other movies because as far as I know they are not available in my country aside from Joker which I think is a good movie that tells a lot of story. I just recently watch Maleficent and read some news that they exceeded Joker in terms of profit and for me they also have the best picture to look for, for now if I’m going to choose, I’ll go for Joker.

I believe there's a carefully selected jury to judge which movie wins. So all of the movies' sales, popularity, and buzz won't matter in the deliberation. Regardless, I still think Joker is a strong contender, and so is The Irishman and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Other than the Joker, I'm yet to watch the other movies on the list. I'm curios about The Irishman.

It's been a while since I last watch the Oscars but I can say that it's not a popularity contest. Some winners in the past were not exactly the favorite among movie "reviewers".

---

I hope this year's nominees will be able to match up with last year's winner Green Book and contenders Bohemian Rhapsody & A Star Is Born. Those were really good movies.

I'm not sure that Jokes will get the Oscar for the Best Picture, but Joaquin Phoenix sure will get an Oscap. Cant see who can compete with his performance this year.

For me, Joker. it has changed the test of a comedy movie so it must deserve an oscar this year, Which things are not here, it's a compact movie for me to watch, I think it should go to all category oscar like the Best picture along with Best Sound mixing, also it deserves the best Sound editing category, the most important thing is that Joker is going get an oscar on the costume design, undoubtedly this is going to happen, I also think Todd Phillips is going to get the best director in this year, Overall comparison to with other movies, this year is just for Joke, at least 5 category award goes to this Film for sure.

I'm not quite familiar with the criteria on choosing the best picture. I've searched some here but I'm not very much a technical person when in comes to movies so I didn't understand it well.

Anyway, I can only base my judgement on the movies I have watched (in the trailer) which are Once upon a Time in Hollywood and Joker. And depending on what I feel, the former is really star-studded, and entertaining. The latter, on the other hand, can be so affecting. You know, from good to bad version of oneself. I mean, I'm interested to see the whole story behind both movies. But for now, I'm gonna go with Joker.

Is the audience impact a factor greatly considered on picking the winner receiving the Oscar's or thr jury only based on the structure of the movie itself? Because if it does then the poll is over, it would be Joker for the win . I like this movie because it was so depressing. I mean the director of it effectively shown how Joaquin shifted from best to worst version of himself, I really love it.

The majority is agreeing about Joker and it's undeniable that the movies was fantastic. And even outside the forum, I always see those satisfied people who have watched the movie.

The management of AA will have their own basis on what movie shall be awarded the best picture. We're all sharing the same opinion about Joker and hopefully that it will actually get the award because base on everyone's perspective, they deserve it.

I predict that movie Joker will win Oscar or be in top selection., and I see most people voted the same.
Joaquin Phoenix role was legendary this time.
Everyone should watch that movie.

I vote "once upon a time in Hollywood". collaboration and natural talents of Leonardo Dicaprio, Brad Pitt, and Margot Robbie make this film come alive..  The "Joker" seems to have a chance but I don't predict the Joker will win Oscar for best picture.

all 5 movies are very good, they have good actors (they are actors that I particularly like them very much), but I would bet on the joker because from what I see there was a lot of ticket sales and a lot of praise from people, so I believe joker will win.

I see the joker is winning the pool. Ofc, most people watched only his movie (as I did).
It is a beautiful movie and certainly deserves many rewards. The picture is amazing, I really liked the colors.
But I didn't see the other movies.. as I believe most here didn't either

I'm in for the Irishman, but Joker surely has the abilities to take that best picture award. The Irishman's cinematography on Martin Scorsese's hands and De Niro, Pacino and Pesci's acting skills somewhat made the 3-hour running time of the film relatively shorter since you'll really enjoy it. The Joker, however, tackles a bit more of what our society has become, and my god the color grading of the film is superb and cinematography is great! I haven't watched the other three on the poll though I'm biased for the Irishman the most, and I think the critics and I share the same opinion.

Well said.

This do happen most of the time.Majority would really look for Joker to be the best one but as usual the chosen would be
to those movies which do give out more emotions into its viewers.The more dramatic it is the more chances for it to be
selected.I'll bet on that.

It seems because Joker is well known it doesn't mean that it will surely win an Oscar award, And right now mainly many are voting for it, but if you would look at the other movies and see the artistic things the people behind it have put on it you will see how a great many movies that are line up here, in my opinion, if you look at the movie

Marriage Story - it has a great vide on a story about marriage and we can surely relate because it is really happening too much typical marriage.

Jojo Rabbit - this comedy movie, in my opinion, is very brilliant in giving Hitler a role in a movie and directed by Taika Waititi there is so much unique concept in it that I like about the movie.

while other movies on the list sure have some different vide to it and surely have a brilliant concept to it like on the waves, The Irishman, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Joker I am truly torn between Marriage Story and Jojo Rabbit but I prefer to laugh and make a vote on Jojo Rabbit.

The joker seems transcended from a villain to a main character just like how Harley Quinn portrayed from scuicide squad. Since The joker is more like a dramatic movie than being an action movie, I think it would win the best picture for me.

The vote here has to go to the most sentimental type movie.   Phoenix is a favourite but my initial reaction is doubt Joker makes it this time, Gladiator and his other movies are far more appealing across the whole spectrum of voters which is probably what gets the win.

'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood'
Bias to itself possibly, seems a bit obvious.

Ok we got to state the bias of this forum, Joker is obviously going to be our favourite but its not going to win the votes just because of this demographic.   Tell me which is the most soppy overly weepy/emotional movie and that'll win it.

Joker is leading in the poll. But I cannot make a good prediction of which among them will make it as the 92nd Academy Awards' best picture as I have not watched even one of them. But I surmise that Joker is leading because it is currently showing in the cinemas. The Joker fever is still very fresh in the air.

What amused me is that it is given betting odds and opened as early as now. Well, we're on the last day of October but the Oscar winners will be announced in February 2020. I may be placing my bet when the nominees are already final and when I have watched them.  

The Irishman all the freaking way followed by Once Upon a time in Hollywood in my opinion. Have watched both and I feel both of them are worth watching at least once. Did not watch the Joker and the other movies yet, but I probably will soon.

Box office hits usually don't win Oscars and I am not really a big fan of these award ceremonies though they are worth checking out. If box office collections were taken into consideration, Endgame would easily win(One of my favorite movies of all time).

Joker bro. In addition to the movie itself, it can be pretty much be called currently in the center of movie news. With a lot of people debating towards the joker of Joaquin Phoenix and the joker of Jared Leto. Plus, the movie was really interesting. Though I haven't watched a few others in the poll, I have watched the Irishman and the Jojo Rabbit and well, I'd say Joker won by quite a bit. Imo that is.

I have watched the Joker and i liked the movie very much and there is a possibility it will bag some awards in the next Oscars and Joaquin Phoenix might win the best actor for his brilliant acting but the movie i am waiting to see is The Irishman because of Robert De Niro and Al Pacino and a fan of Martin Scorsese movie making.

im not a fan of watching movies so im not familiar with other movies that is listed on the poll but except for the one movie  .  guess what it is ? yes . your right its the joker movie  .  joker if pretty familiar whether solo  ,dou or teamed up with other super hero movie  . actually i did watch some clips and trailers of the joker movie and it was good  . the scenes , the acts , cinematography  . so this movie has the potential to win on this prediction

Where I live now for a few months based on my work contract the film Joker is all over the Cinemas and is difficult to find a ticket for a good schedule like in the evening.The film is beautiful no doubt but I don’t think is for the Oscar price.The other movies I haven’t seen so I don’t know which of them is worth the price.

No doubt Joker was a box-office hit. It even broke Deadpool's record for being the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time. But I say critics' polarized response would play a huge role in determining what movie will get the Oscar. Some said the dark theme of Joker and how much it can inspire real-world violence can make it not get the Oscar for best picture, though I bet it will get awards in other categories.

I'm betting on Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Star-studded, historical yet relevant, entertaining, and impactful.

Well it's hype would probably take Joaquin Phoenix's the Joker to win this time. Or probably close. I've only watched the Irishman and Jojo Rabbit, along with the Joker, and though I agree that they deserve to be considered, the latter movie takes it for me. I'm not sure about Waves and why it's having that much odds going for it. Probably I'll try watching it first and then judge which movie deserves to win more.

The nominations voting for the 92nd Academy Awards will start on January 2, 2019. But as early as now, some online sportsbooks, including Bet365, have already opened betting lines for punters wanting to wager on which movie they think will win Best Picture 2020.

The upcoming Academy Awards (commonly called Oscars) will announce the nominees on January 13 and will present the winners on February 9. In the previous ceremony, it was Green Book that won the Oscar for best picture, beating strong contenders Roma, Bohemian Rhapsody, and A Star Is Born.

For the 2020 Oscars, the above movies are the top five predicted by Bet365 to win as best picture, arranged from that with the highest to lowest odds.
