I've been so enjoying the uncertainty of so many of these races that I'm reluctant to end that stage and start projecting actual winners.

I've been convinced, mathematically, that one's score is almost certain to be higher if one avoids runners-up. But that's the only thing that makes me play it that way. If I were to go by actual instinct, the only category that wouldn't have a back-up choice would be animated feature.

Picture (Drama): The Shape of Water
Picture (Comedy/Musical): Lady Bird
Director: Guillermo del Toro (The Shape of Water)
Actor (Drama): Timothée Chalamet (Call Me by Your Name)
Actor (Comedy/Musical): James Franco (The Disaster Artist)
Actress (Drama): Frances McDormand (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri)
Actress (Comedy/Musical): Saoirse Ronan (Lady Bird)
Supporting Actor: Sam Rockwell (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri)
Supporting Actress: Allison Janney (I, Tonya)
Screenplay: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri
Foreign Language Film: The Square
Animated Feature: Coco
Original Song: "Mighty River" (Mudbound)
Original Score: The Shape of Water

EDITED TO ADD TIE-BREAKER: 5
