It's a great movie, but let's be honest here: it isn't going to even get a nomination (for anything).

Nomadland seems to be the front runner for Best Picture, Director and some others.

Ma Rainey's Black Bottom looks to be the front runner for Best Actor and Best Actress possibly, the later split between it and Nomadland.

Bill and Ted is nominated for a Grammy so it has that going for itself

Gotta say, I don't think I've seen anything released this year. Or if I have, it was horror, and we all know how that goes over at the Oscars.

Mank is usually a runner-up in the Oscar prediction sites/experts behind Nomadland. It's average/above average reviews vs the universal praise Nomadland has gotten is a thing too. That and the streaming controversy recently will hurt it as I'm sure some voters will rather put support behind a "traditional" release film.

It should get Seyfried a nomination and possible win though.

Meh.
The Oscars are all about pretentious crap anyway, apart from that year the academy pretty much had to bend over for Lord of the Rings.

I don't always mind their selections. Coen brothers, Silence of the Lambs, Shape of Water. I don't necessarily put a lot of stock in awards, but I do appreciate the opportunities they occasionally afford people who make genre films.

That's fair.
Make a movie that confuses the academy, and they'll go all "emperor's new clothes" about it in an attempt to disguise being confused.
