In our predictions, we bet on The Revenant, Spotlight, and The Big Short having a big morning, while admitting that several categories—like best supporting actor and that ever-tricky best picture—remain extremely hard to predict. With guilds like SAG and D.G.A. announcing their choices for nominations in recent weeks, there emerged somewhat more of a consensus about which films were gaining the most industry support, but then high-profile snubs—like Todd Haynes not making the D.G.A. list for Carol made everything seem mysterious all over again. Which, if you like to think of awards season as a sport—like we do!—makes it all the more fun, too.
