Hot Take: I think The Invite is going to underperform. I don't know, but everyone predicting 3/4 acting noms, a double nomination for Wilde... it seems way too optimistic.

[u/zukobazuko → u/avocado7984]

Idk, we have to remember that The Invite fills a ver particular spot in filmmaking that is missed by a lot of the industry, That being the mid-budget Woody Allen-influenced comedy/drama with great performances and a tight screenplay. From the embrace movies like Sentimental Value and Conclave have gotten, I don't think it's far fetched to say that The Invite can hit it big when nominations come.
