B-10 : Oscar 2024 Predictions - A Film Fan's Perspective

The 96th Academy Awards, a.k.a. The Oscars®, are set to happen on March 11 at 4:30 AM IST. The celebrations of the Oscar season are at their full peak. Amid the fun and excitement - and less than 24 hours for the ceremony to start, here's a look at the movie categories and our predictions of the winners. These are predictions based on the trends, previous award ceremonies this year (like Golden Globes, BAFTA, Critics Choice, and SAG), and the winners - along with my perspective. So sit back and stay with me till the end:-

P.S. SPOILER ALERT!!!!

Best Picture

Nominees:

American Fiction – Ben LeClair, Nikos Karamigios, Cord Jefferson, and Jermaine Johnson, producers

Anatomy of a Fall – Marie-Ange Luciani and David Thion, producers

Barbie – David Heyman, Margot Robbie, Tom Ackerley, and Robbie Brenner, producers

The Holdovers – Mark Johnson, producer

Killers of the Flower Moon – Dan Friedkin, Bradley Thomas, Martin Scorsese, and Daniel Lupi, producers

Maestro – Bradley Cooper, Steven Spielberg, Fred Berner, Amy Durning, and Kristie Macosko Krieger, producers

Oppenheimer – Emma Thomas, Charles Roven, and Christopher Nolan, producers

Past Lives – David Hinojosa, Christine Vachon, and Pamela Koffler, producers

Poor Things – Ed Guiney, Andrew Lowe, Yorgos Lanthimos, and Emma Stone, producers

The Zone of Interest– James Wilson, producer

Prediction: Oppenheimer

It's highly doubtful that the Academy would not give the highest honor to Nolan's cinematic masterpiece of the year. Not doing so would lead to havoc.

Best Director

Nominees:

Justine Triet – Anatomy of a Fall

Martin Scorsese – Killers of the Flower Moon

Christopher Nolan – Oppenheimer

Yorgos Lanthimos – Poor Things

Jonathan Glazer – The Zone of Interest

Prediction: Christopher Nolan

Nolan has given the ultimate blockbuster of the year - a period film with intense acting and technical excellence. It's time to make up for the snubs of the past.

Best Actor

Nominees:

Bradley Cooper – Maestro as Leonard Bernstein

Colman Domingo – Rustin as Bayard Rustin

Paul Giamatti – The Holdovers as Paul Hunham

Cillian Murphy – Oppenheimer as J. Robert Oppenheimer

Jeffrey Wright – American Fiction as Thelonious "Monk" Ellison

Prediction(s): Cillian Murphy

With his wins at the Golden Globe, BAFTA, and the SAG, it's time for the Irishman to get the golden man for his first role as a leading man in a Nolan (after playing supporting or character roles in movies like The Dark Night Trilogy, Inception, and Dunkirk).

Best Actress

Nominees:

Annette Bening – Nyad as Diana Nyad

Lily Gladstone – Killers of the Flower Moon as Mollie Burkhart

Sandra Hüller – Anatomy of a Fall as Sandra Voyter

Carey Mulligan – Maestro as Felicia Montealegre

Emma Stone – Poor Things as Bella Baxter

Prediction(s): Emma Stone/Lily Gladstone/Sandra Hüller

The competition for best actress is intense - as Gladstone has showcased her method acting (which might make her the first Native American to win the trophy). Meanwhile, Stone's feminist portrayal of a woman on her purpose to stand for equality and liberation seems Oscar-worthy (with her acting wins this year). Hüller, on the other hand, has given a breathtaking performance in the trilingual thriller.

Best Supporting Actor

Nominees:

Sterling K. Brown – American Fiction as Clifford "Cliff" Ellison

Robert De Niro – Killers of the Flower Moon as William King Hale

Robert Downey Jr. – Oppenheimer as Lewis Strauss

Ryan Gosling – Barbie as Ken

Mark Ruffalo – Poor Things as Duncan Wedderburn

Prediction(s): Robert Downey Jr

RDJ might be memorable for Tony Stark/Iron Man. However, it's his portrayal of Strauss that's going to win this year. With two previous nominations (including one for portraying Charlie Chaplin), RDJ would likely be the first Marvel hero to win the Golden Man. He would also repeat the feat of Actor-Supporting Actor wins for the same film - after 1959's Ben Hur (Charlton Heston - Charles Laughton), 2003's Mystic River (Sean Penn - Tim Robbins), and 2013's Dallas Buyers Club (Matthew McCoughnahey - Jared Leto).

Best Supporting Actress

Nominees:

Emily Blunt – Oppenheimer as Kitty Oppenheimer

Danielle Brooks – The Color Purple as Sofia

America Ferrera – Barbie as Gloria

Jodie Foster – Nyad as Bonnie Stoll

Da'Vine Joy Randolph – The Holdovers as Mary Lamb

Prediction(s): Da'Vine Joy Randolph

Randolph's portrayal of a grieving mother stuck in a boarding school during the holiday season involves her comedic timing and emotional depth.

Best Original Screenplay

Nominees:

Anatomy of a Fall – Justine Triet and Arthur Harari

The Holdovers – David Hemingson

Maestro – Bradley Cooper and Josh Singer

May December – Screenplay by Samy Burch; Story by Samy Burch and Alex Mechanik

Past Lives – Celine Song

Prediction(s): Anatomy of A Fall/The Holdovers

While the former is this year's Palme d'Or winner and Golden Globe-winning screenplay, the latter is what would become a holiday classic. It's going to be a tough contest between the two films.

Best Adapted Screenplay

Nominees:

American Fiction – Cord Jefferson; based on the novel Erasure by Percival Everett

Barbie – Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach; based on characters created by Ruth Handler

Oppenheimer – Christopher Nolan; based on the biography American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin

Poor Things – Tony McNamara; based on the novel by Alasdair Gray

The Zone of Interest – Jonathan Glazer; based on the novel by Martin Amis

Prediction(s): Oppenheimer/American Fiction

The former might be possible with the guaranteed Best Picture & Director awards - which could make Nolan another director to win writing, directing, and producing Oscars. However, the latter would pose a tough competition - as it has already won the Writers Guild of America (WGA) Award, the Critics Choice Award, and several other precursor accolades. Its poignant exploration of race, family, and the American dream resonates with critics and audiences.

Best Animated Feature

Nominees:

The Boy and the Heron – Hayao Miyazaki and Toshio Suzuki

Elemental – Peter Sohn and Denise Ream

Nimona – Nick Bruno, Troy Quane, Karen Ryan, and Julie Zackary

Robot Dreams – Pablo Berger, Ibon Cormenzana, Ignasi Estapé, and Sandra Tapia Díaz

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse – Kemp Powers, Justin K. Thompson, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller, and Amy Pascal

Prediction(s): Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse/The Boy and the Heron

It'll be Marvel's turn to preside over this category - with its innovative animation style, captivating story, and emotional connection. However, the Golden Globe-winning Japanese anime with a timeless tale of loss and resilience is a strong contender for the American animated film.

Best International Feature Film

Nominees:

Io capitano (Italy) – directed by Matteo Garrone

Perfect Days (Japan) – directed by Wim Wenders

Society of the Snow (Spain) – directed by J. A. Bayona

The Teachers' Lounge (Germany) – directed by İlker Çatak

The Zone of Interest (United Kingdom) – directed by Jonathan Glazer

Prediction(s): The Zone of Interest

The Grand Prix-winning tale of a Nazi leader's family living next to Auschwitz is a tale that will send chills down the spine.

Best Documentary Feature Film

Nominees:

Bobi Wine: The People's President – Moses Bwayo, Christopher Sharp, and John Battsek

The Eternal Memory – Maite Alberdi

Four Daughters – Kaouther Ben Hania and Nadim Cheikhrouha

To Kill a Tiger – Nisha Pahuja, Cornelia Principe, and David Oppenheim

20 Days in Mariupol – Mstyslav Chernov, Michelle Mizner, and Raney Aronson-Rath

Prediction(s): 20 Days in Mariupol

A tale about the Russian invasion of Ukraine, 20 Days in Mariupol has won several documentary awards at multiple film festivals and award ceremonies. If it wins, it would be another film about the dark side of Russia to win the Oscar.

Best Documentary Short Film

Nominees:

The ABCs of Book Banning – Sheila Nevins and Trish Adlesic

The Barber of Little Rock – John Hoffman and Christine Turner

Island in Between – S. Leo Chiang and Jean Tsien

The Last Repair Shop – Ben Proudfoot and Kris Bowers

Nǎi Nai & Wài Pó – Sean Wang and Sam Davis

Prediction(s): The Last Repair Shop

Showing Los Angeles as one of the few United States cities to offer and fix musical instruments for its public school students at no cost, it might win the Oscar - as it has previously won the Critics Choice Documentary Award for the same category.

Best Live Action Short Film

Nominees:

The After – Misan Harriman and Nicky Bentham

Invincible – Vincent René-Lortie and Samuel Caron

Knight of Fortune – Lasse Lyskjær Noer and Christian Norlyk

Red, White and Blue – Nazrin Choudhury and Sara McFarlane

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar – Wes Anderson and Steven Rales

Prediction(s): The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar

I guess it's time for Anderson to win his Oscar now - with his colors, symmetry, and star cast.

Best Animated Short Film

Nominees:

Letter to a Pig – Tal Kantor and Amit R. Gicelter

Ninety-Five Senses – Jared and Jerusha Hess

Our Uniform – Yegane Moghaddam

Pachyderme – Stéphanie Clément and Marc Rius

War Is Over! Inspired by the Music of John and Yoko – Dave Mullins and Brad Booker

Prediction(s): War Is Over! Inspired by the Music of John and Yoko

Inspired by and featuring John Lennon and Yoko Ono's peace anthem "Happy Xmas (War Is Over)," It is a simplistic take on war and humanity - which the Academy might honor.

Best Original Score

Nominees:

American Fiction – Laura Karpman

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny – John Williams

Killers of the Flower Moon – Robbie Robertson †

Oppenheimer – Ludwig Göransson

Poor Things – Jerskin Fendrix

Prediction: Oppenheimer

With his 54th nomination (and final because of his retirement), John Williams has entertained with his latest rendition of one of Hollywood's greatest film franchises. However, Goransson's Oppenheimer soundtrack adds tension to the film's plot - particularly with "Can You Hear the Music?" He can easily add an Oscar to his collection of Awards for Oppenheimer.

Best Original Song

Nominees:

"The Fire Inside" from Flamin' Hot – Music and lyrics by Diane Warren

"I'm Just Ken" from Barbie – Music and lyrics by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt

"It Never Went Away" from American Symphony – Music and lyrics by Jon Batiste and Dan Wilson

"Wahzhazhe (A Song for My People)" from Killers of the Flower Moon – Music and lyrics by Scott George

"What Was I Made For?" from Barbie – Music and lyrics by Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell

Prediction: What Was I Made For?

It's likely a second win for the Eilish-O'Connell siblings - after No Time to Die.

Best Sound

Nominees:

The Creator – Ian Voigt, Erik Aadahl, Ethan Van der Ryn, Tom Ozanich, and Dean Zupancic

Maestro – Steven A. Morrow, Richard King, Jason Ruder, Tom Ozanich, and Dean Zupancic

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One – Chris Munro, James H. Mather, Chris Burdon, and Mark Taylor

Oppenheimer – Willie Burton, Richard King, Gary A. Rizzo, and Kevin O'Connell

The Zone of Interest – Tarn Willers and Johnnie Burn

Prediction: Oppenheimer

It's Nolan's year when it comes to technical awards. The sound design and editing show that Nolan has duly followed the laws of physics - and ensured tension in the other scenes.

Best Production Design

Nominees:

Barbie – Production Design: Sarah Greenwood; Set Decoration: Katie Spencer

Killers of the Flower Moon – Production Design: Jack Fisk; Set Decoration: Adam Willis

Napoleon – Production Design: Arthur Max; Set Decoration: Elli Griff

Oppenheimer – Production Design: Ruth De Jong; Set Decoration: Claire Kaufman

Poor Things – Production Design: James Price and Shona Heath; Set Decoration: Zsuzsa Mihalek

Prediction(s): Barbie/Poor Things

Fantasy films have eye-grabbing sets and decorations that are attractive to the Academy voters. It can be either of the two women-centric films.

Best Cinematography

Nominees:

El Conde – Edward Lachman

Killers of the Flower Moon – Rodrigo Prieto

Maestro – Matthew Libatique

Oppenheimer – Hoyte van Hoytema

Poor Things – Robbie Ryan

Prediction(s): Oppenheimer

Hoytema's camerawork captures expansive desert vistas and painfully intimate close-ups using IMAX film cameras (in color and monochrome). A win for him is confirmed

Best Makeup and Hairstyling

Nominees:

Golda – Karen Hartley Thomas, Suzi Battersby, and Ashra Kelly-Blue

Maestro – Kazu Hiro, Kay Georgiou, and Lori McCoy-Bell

Oppenheimer – Luisa Abel

Poor Things – Nadia Stacey, Mark Coulier, and Josh Weston

Society of the Snow – Ana López-Puigcerver, David Martí, and Montse Ribé

Prediction(s): Maestro

Although other movies have dominated the major categories, a Bradly Cooper film can win an Oscar this year - with the magnificent transformation of the lead actor into Leonard Bernstein.

Best Costume Designing

Nominees:

Barbie – Jacqueline Durran

Killers of the Flower Moon – Jacqueline West

Napoleon – Janty Yates and Dave Crossman

Oppenheimer – Ellen Mirojnick

Poor Things – Holly Waddington

Prediction(s): Barbie/Poor Things

Like many fantasy films, it's a tough pick between the two films in costumes - like the production design category.

Best Film Editing

Nominees:

Anatomy of a Fall – Laurent Sénéchal

The Holdovers – Kevin Tent

Killers of the Flower Moon – Thelma Schoonmaker

Oppenheimer – Jennifer Lame

Poor Things – Yorgos Mavropsaridis

Prediction(s): Oppenheimer

It goes with saying for the technical awards and Nolan - with the montages, parallel storytelling, and transitions that accompany the screenplay.

Best Visual Effects

Nominees:

The Creator – Jay Cooper, Ian Comley, Andrew Roberts, and Neil Corbould

Godzilla Minus One – Takashi Yamazaki, Kiyoko Shibuya, Masaki Takahashi, and Tatsuji Nojima

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 – Stéphane Ceretti, Alexis Wajsbrot, Guy Williams, and Theo Bialek

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One – Alex Wuttke, Simone Coco, Jeff Sutherland, and Neil Corbould

Napoleon – Charley Henley, Luc-Ewen Martin-Fenouillet, Simone Coco, and Neil Corbould

Prediction: Godzilla Minus One

I'm deeply offended that Oppenheimer didn't get a nomination in this category. However, with the nominees, I'd have to pick Godzilla - with its first-ever nomination in the franchise - and also because it is a visual spectacle besides Oppenheimer this year.

That's all for now. Let's see who wins what this year. See you at the Oscars.

'…Weekly Commentary: Barbenheimer has burst into the Oscar race with Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” and Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” finally landing in theaters with critical acclaim and a possible colossal box office haul.

Of all the movies screened up to this point this year, Nolan’s movie is one of two films that could have all the key ingredients to win the Academy Awards’ most coveted prize. It’ll be a colossal guild player (watch out for the SAG ensemble), and the regional critics could make it a darling during the precursor season. The ongoing strikes could have a ripple effect on films that are dropping in the later months since their teams won’t be able to promote them in the same way as earlier titles…

The submission deadline for general categories is Nov. 18, 2023. Preliminary shortlist voting will begin on Dec. 18, with the results announced on Dec. 21. The voting period will run from Jan. 11-16, 2024, with the official nominations announcement on Jan. 23.

The 96th Oscars will be held on Sunday, Mar. 10.

La Historia y Evolución de las Computadoras: Desde los Inicios hasta la Era Digital

Las computadoras son una parte esencial de nuestra vida cotidiana en la actualidad. Desde las computadoras personales hasta los dispositivos móviles, han revolucionado la forma en que vivimos, trabajamos y nos comunicamos. Sin embargo, la historia de las computadoras es larga y fascinante, llena de avances tecnológicos y personajes visionarios que sentaron las bases de la era digital en la que nos encontramos hoy en día. 1. Los primeros pasos: Calculadoras mecánicas: La historia de las computadoras se remonta a cientos de años atrás, cuando los seres humanos inventaron las primeras herramientas para realizar cálculos. Las calculadoras mecánicas, como el ábaco en China y el astrolabio en el mundo islámico, fueron los precursores de las máquinas de cómputo modernas. Sin embargo, fue en el siglo XIX cuando se produjo un avance significativo con la invención de la máquina de calcular mecánica de Charles Babbage.

2. Los primeros ordenadores electrónicos: ENIAC y UNIVAC: A mediados del siglo XX, con el advenimiento de las válvulas de vacío y los transistores, se crearon las primeras computadoras electrónicas. El ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer), desarrollado en 1946, fue la primera computadora electrónica de propósito general. Aunque ocupaba una habitación entera, marcó el inicio de la era de la computación electrónica.

Poco después, en 1951, se lanzó el UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer), la primera computadora comercial y ampliamente utilizada. Estas primeras computadoras electrónicas sentaron las bases para la revolución de la computación que estaba por venir. 3. La era de las computadoras personales: A finales de la década de 1970 y principios de la década de 1980, las computadoras personales comenzaron a ganar popularidad. Empresas como Apple y Microsoft jugaron un papel fundamental en la creación de máquinas accesibles y fáciles de usar para el público en general. El lanzamiento del Apple II y del IBM PC allanó el camino para que las computadoras personales se convirtieran en una herramienta común en hogares y oficinas.

4. El auge de Internet y la era digital: A medida que avanzaba la década de 1990, la conexión a Internet se convirtió en una parte fundamental de la vida cotidiana. La World Wide Web, desarrollada por Tim Berners-Lee en 1989, permitió el acceso y la compartición de información a escala global. El surgimiento de los motores de búsqueda y el comercio electrónico transformaron la forma en que nos comunicamos, trabajamos y consumimos información.

5. La evolución actual: Computación en la nube e Inteligencia Artificial En la actualidad, estamos presenciando avances significativos en el campo de la computación. La computación en la nube ha revolucionado la forma en que almacenamos y accedemos a nuestros datos, permitiéndonos tener acceso instantáneo a aplicaciones y servicios desde cualquier lugar. Además, la inteligencia artificial (IA) ha avanzado rápidamente en los últimos años, con algoritmos y sistemas capaces de realizar tareas que antes eran exclusivas de los seres humanos. La IA está presente en diversos ámbitos, como la medicina, la conducción autónoma y el reconocimiento de voz.

La historia y evolución de las computadoras es un testimonio del ingenio humano y el avance tecnológico. Desde las calculadoras mecánicas hasta los dispositivos inteligentes que llevamos en nuestros bolsillos, las computadoras han cambiado nuestra forma de vivir y trabajar. A medida que avanzamos hacia el futuro, seguiremos viendo nuevos avances y desarrollos en el campo de las computadoras, lo que nos llevará hacia una sociedad cada vez más conectada y digital. Aquí te presento una tabla con los 20 inventos más importantes que dieron paso a las computadoras: NúmeroInventoAño1Ábaco2000 a.C.2AstrolabioSiglo II a.C.3Pascalina16424Máquina de calcular de Leibniz16735Telar de Jacquard18016Máquina de calcular diferencial de Babbage18227Máquina de calcular analítica de Babbage18378Tarjeta perforada de Hollerith18879Válvula de vacío190410Relé telefónico183511Máquina tabuladora de IBM188812ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer)194613UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer)195114Transistor194715IBM 650 Magnetic Drum Data Processing Machine195416IBM 1401195917Microprocesador Intel 4004197118Apple II197719IBM PC198120World Wide Web1989 Estos inventos sentaron las bases para el desarrollo y la evolución de las computadoras a lo largo de la historia.

The entangled cords of the internet's development

The internet’s official development is said to have begun in 1983, though its beginnings can be attributed to developments made long before the internet was even possible.

Some theories about the origins of the internet claim that it was initially destined as a military tool. One such claim is that it is a product of the cold war, a method for the military to transfer information in enemy territory. Many dispute this origin story, saying that psychologist Joseph Licklider in 1956 envisioned a country of connected citizens who took interest in the happenings of the world and their government.

Considered the father of the computer, Charles Babbage assisted by mathematician Lady Ava Byron Lovelace created the designs for an analytical computer which could compute algebraic expressions. This jumpstarted the way for others to follow suit. Binary code was developed during codebreaking attempts in World War II.

It’s wise not to disregard the military and government motivations that propelled the development of the computer and internet. Funding and people were supplied to achieve military goals and have gotten us to the internet we know today.

The creation and distribution of the personal computer was the biggest leap in closing the gap to today’s devices. Computers originally were far too large to even consider a personal application. The first devices were 18 feet tall, 80 feet long and weighed thousands and thousands of pounds. They were absolutely massive. Eventually they became available in workplaces and universities as a “minicomputer” though still tethered to a mainframe. Once they were given their own mainframe in a compact form, home computers or “PCs” were introduced and opened up internet access for the average citizen. Tablet and laptop computers were introduced around 2006/2007 and led eventually to the Ipad. All of these portable and sleek options continue to outsell PCs.

A revelation in the creation of these computers can be credited by some names we should all be familiar with. Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard and started Microsoft with his friend Paul Allen after concluding that the importance is not only the size but also the processing power contained within. They were instrumental in making computers user friendly-no longer did you need to know exactly how the operating system worked to operate the computer. All of us technologically illiterate people thank you Bill! Steve Jobs and Stephen Woziak developed computers with more personal applications that held many multimedia capabilities with sound and image. Their company Apple continues to live on past its roots (see what i did there?).

The internet we know today is seemingly different every day. Content travels faster than we can consume it, anyone and everyone can contribute to it, and it has in reality, become its own world (especially if the metaverse ever takes off, but for now I think we’re safely grounded in reality). The consequences of what the internet can seem to be at times, a harsh landscape or a mindless feed of entertainment for us to guzzle (bread & circuses) was not the original goal. The initial intent, some of which I believe still show through, was to help people connect and collaborate together, a social entity. Maybe it’s gotten a bit out of hand, but perhaps Tim Berners-Lee (inventor of the HTTP which is still a big part of how information transfers through the Web and which he gave for free) would find some peace in the way people will also rally around each others from many parts of the globe.
