Re: New Developments III
Trump is unable to make the almost half-billion-dollar bond necessary to appeal his New York civil fraud verdict. It appears the New York AG will start seizing Trump's property in about a week.

Re: Welcome to the 97th Academy Awards
Megalopolis finished production at the end of March in 2023; so, it should already have finished post-production. Apparently, it will be shown at this year's Cannes festival, which will be from May 14 to 25.

Re: In Memoriam
The reason I was hoping the last person In Memoriam would be Norman Jewison is that it could end with the scene in Moonstruck in the kitchen where Olympia Dukakis says, "Te amo;" and, Vincent Gardenia responds with, "Anch'io ti amo."

Returning to my tradition, here is the most recent year, based on the years the films were released, where I correctly predicted a category: 2023: Picture Directing Original Screenplay Lead Actor Supporting Actor Supporting Actress International Feature Documentary Feature Animated Feature Live Acti...

Re: Welcome to the 97th Academy Awards
The big question mark, for both box office and awards in 2024, appears to be Megalopolis.

Re: I'm always here for the Trivia
- “Oppenheimer”, with global box office tallying just shy of $1 billion, is now the third-highest-grossing film to win the top Oscar, behind only of “Titanic” and “The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King". It is also the highest-grossing film to earn acting awards. If you adjust for infl...

Re: Categories One-by-One: Visual Effects
I am so clueless about Visual Effects that in the Prediction Contest I predicted Mission: Impossible as it was clear nobody else would be predicting it; and, if it did win, I would get triple points.

Re: Categories One-by-One: Best Actress
I would prefer if they go the old-fashioned route where they award it to the one here who has paid her dues - a career award - Bening. On this, I agree with what I saw on a YouTube video of Glenda Jackson presenting the Best Actor award the year Art Carney won, the award is for the best performance...

Re: Categories One-by-One: Adapted Screenplay
That was the same logic I used last year when I predicted Original Screenplay would go to The Banshees Of Inisherin over Everything Everywhere All At Once.
