Oscar season continued today with even more precursors announcing their picks for the best of 2016! Perhaps most importantly, the 74th Annual Golden Globe nominations were announced today! Even though they rarely match up 100%, the Golden Globe nominations are considered to be one of the best precursors for what will be nominated for an Oscar in January.
But again, it’s never an exact match between the Globes and the Oscars and the Academy can nominate up to ten films for best picture. Though it would certainly be interesting (and kinda neat) if it happened, I somehow doubt that the Academy is going nominate Deadpool over Silence.
(For that matter, I doubt Simon Helberg is going to pick up an Oscar nomination for Florence Foster Jenkins. Just a feeling…)
