 Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor Birdman and its star are too confrontational, divisive, and strange, and Eddie Redmayne, reportedly extremely Colin Firth-esque charming on the campaign trail, expertly transforms into Stephen Hawking. Just calling it now. No big deal.  _________________   1. The Lost City of Z - 2. A Cure for Wellness - 3. Phantom Thread - 4. T2 Trainspotting - 5. Detroit - 6. Good Time - 7. The Beguiled - 8.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor Of course he will. He played a spastic. They always win.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor I hope you're right, and I think this does have a chance of happening. Lecter will tell you you're wrong though and there is no way Keaton loses.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor I'm in the Keaton camp. I think there will still be the faction who will hold his singing in Les Mis against him especially that cat killing duet with Seyfried.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor I guess Keaton and Birdman fans just need to remember Mr. Hawking's inspirational, computerized Cicero quotation: "While there is life, there is hope."

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor I don't see it. I think it will be Michael Keaton or, if things really pick up for American Sniper, BCoop.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor Harvey does not always win.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor David wrote: Harvey does not always win. Now, he obviously doesn't but this is a close race and that's when it does matter. The Imitation Game is a bigger film than The Theory of Everything in every respect - bigger box-office, better Oscar chances overall, bigger starpower. That gives Cumberbatch the advantage. This will be a moot point because Keaton will probably win, since Cumberbatch and Redmayne will split the British vote. _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor I can definitely see this happening. The Best Actor race is so competitive that I can see a number of scenarios transpiring. Redmayne has the most Oscar baity role for sure (real life person?Check! Who is also very well known and respected? Check! And disabled? Check!), so it's possible.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor Not sure if Hawking is respected. I think everyone takes pot shots at him.

Re: Eddie Redmayne will win Best Actor He is respected. He can be parodied because of the computer voice (he has even parodied himself in a Simpsons episode), but the public still regards him as an authoritative and profoundly well-versed figure in science, and A Brief History of Time is among the bestselling books of its kind.
