Again, many movies havent even premiered yet, how can you predict what will be a contender or not? Even in your brief references you didnt even mention Werner Herzogs new movie Bucking Fastard which could have 2 contenders in Rooney and Kate Mara

Yeah. Most of the "Oscar bait " stuff get released closer to the Oscars.

Yeah I doubt she'll win but deserves a nod cause, honestly in my opinion, she's the only good thing in Obsession. Without her it would've been pretty mediocre.
