90th Academy Awards Betting Odds

Hollywood gathers to celebrate all things cinema for the 90th Academy Awards on March 4. The Shape of Water looks to have a big night, as the film has been nominated for 13 statutes – the second-most all-time. Through the award season so far, many categories have turned into a neck-and-neck race between The Shape of Water and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri. 

Three Billboards has produced just seven nominations – behind both The Shape of Water and Dunkirk – but the film finds itself in the thick of the hunt for the coveted Best Picture. And though many people may be scared off of betting Three Billboards considering it was not nominated for Best Director, an assumed indicator of success, only once in the past five years have Best Picture and Best Director gone to the same film (Birdman, 2015).

Many of the categories are thought to be pretty much already locked up, including Best Actor and Actress, but the most competitive of the night is likely Best Original Screenplay. Get Out is the favorite – and rightfully so considering the fantastic job by writer Jordan Peele – but nobody would be stunned if Three Billboards was able to overcome the odds. Get Out is technically classified as a horror film, which the committee has never been very kind to – The Exorcist was the last to win Best Original Screenplay – and is heavily based on the touchy subject of race. And while Three Billboards is not as clever or insightful as Get Out, its raw emotional weight could help it claim the award.
