Oscar Nominees: Best Sound

My predictions: 4/5
My ballot: Come back in February!
The nominees: Black Panther, Bohemian Rhapsody, First Man, Roma, A Star is Born

I guessed four of these, though my surest pick, “A Quiet Place,” only ended up being recognized for sound editing, where it replaced this category’s A Star is Born. First Man scored one of its just four technical bids here, along with Bohemian Rhapsody, Black Panther, and Roma. It’s actually a pretty great list, even if it’s a bit more centralized around Best Picture contenders which also happen to be technical achievements.

My current bet to win: It could be any of these, honestly. I’ll choose A Star is Born.
