Best Documentary Feature Free Solo\u00a0(Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, Jimmy Chin, Evan Hayes and Shannon Dill) -200 Hale County This Morning, This Evening\u00a0(RaMell Ross, Joslyn Barnes and Su Kim) +4000 Minding the Gap\u00a0(Bing Liu and Diane Quon) +1500 Of Fathers and Sons\u00a0(Talal Derki, Ansgar Frerich, Eva Kemme and Tobias N. Siebert) +5000 RBG\u00a0(Betsy West and Julie Cohen) +130 &quot;Free Solo&quot; will likely win by virtue of the difficulty of filming a man climbing a mountain by himself. &quot;RBG&quot; could sneak in, just as a way for people to let Ruth Bader Ginsburg know they love her. Best Animated Feature Incredibles 2\u00a0(Brad Bird, John Walker and Nicole Paradis Grindle) +900 Isle of Dogs\u00a0(Wes Anderson, Scott Rudin, Steven Rales and Jeremy Dawson) +900 Mirai\u00a0(Mamoru Hosoda and Yuichiro Saito) +4000 Ralph Breaks the Internet\u00a0(Rich Moore, Phil Johnston and Clark Spencer) +2500 Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse\u00a0(Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller) -1500 We've rarely heard praise heaped on an animated film the way it's been doled out to &quot;Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.&quot; This seems like the likely winner and the odds agree. Best Foreign-Language Film Capernaum\u00a0(Lebanon) +2500 Cold War\u00a0(Poland) +700 Never Look Away\u00a0(Germany) +3300 Roma\u00a0(Mexico) -2000 Shoplifters\u00a0(Japan) +1700 &quot;Roma&quot; will wipe out the competition here and it's not close. Best Sound Mixing Black Panther +3300 Bohemian Rhapsody -120 First Man +800 Roma +5000 A Star Is Born (Even) Two musicals lead the pack here, but if you want to take a flyer, consider &quot;First Man&quot; since the space shuttle stuff is Oscar bait and Damien Chazelle's movies are often an auditory joyride. Check out the unexpected sounds they incorporated to the shuttle launch. Best Sound Editing Black Panther\u00a0(Benjamin A. Burtt and Steve Boeddeker) +1000 Bohemian Rhapsody\u00a0(John Warhurst and Nina Hartstone) +600 First Man\u00a0(Ai-Ling Lee and Mildred Iatrou Morgan) -250 A Quiet Place\u00a0(Ethan Van der Ryn and Erik Aadahl) +350 Roma\u00a0(Sergio Diaz and Skip Lievsay) +2500 As mentioned above, &quot;First Man&quot; and its space shuttle sequences probably give it the edge here. &quot;A Quiet Place&quot; could play spoiler, since sound is so integral to the plot. Best Production Design Black Panther\u00a0(Hannah Beachler and Jay Hart) +200 The Favourite\u00a0(Fiona Crombie and Alice Felton) -230 First Man\u00a0(Nathan Crowley and Kathy Lucas)+2500 Mary Poppins Returns\u00a0(John Myhre and Gordon Sim) +2500 Roma\u00a0(Eugenio Caballero and Barbara Enriquez) +900 Will voters choose the old-timey look of &quot;The Favourite&quot; or the futuristic visions of &quot;Black Panther&quot;? It's possible that Wakanda feels too computer-generated to earn the Oscar here. Best Visual Effects Avengers: Infinity War -650 Christopher Robin +3500 First Man +400 Ready Player One +1000 Solo: A Star Wars Story +5000 &quot;Infinity War&quot; had a ton of visual effects and a believable animated villain in Thanos. The question is whether voters will honor a comic book movie over something realistic like &quot;First Man,&quot; which somehow feels more &quot;Oscar-worthy.&quot; Best Film Editing BlacKkKlansman\u00a0(Barry Alexander Brown) +1000 Bohemian Rhapsody\u00a0(John Ottman) +275 The Favourite\u00a0(Yorgos Mavropsaridis) +350 Green Book\u00a0(Patrick J. Don Vito) +3300 Vice\u00a0(Hank Corwin) -150 &quot;Vice&quot; may deserve it for the audacity of its mid-movie credits sequence alone. The film covers a sprawling time frame, and the editing helps propel it along. That said, &quot;Bohemian Rhapsody&quot; could slip through since the big concert scenes provide the music video jolt that many voters may respond to. And in case you're wondering, Bovada puts &quot;Gotti&quot; as the favorite to win Worst Picture at the annual Razzie Awards. &quot;Holmes and Watson&quot; is a close second.\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/watch\/movie\/a-star-is-born-2018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">A Star Is Born<\/a>\u00a0(Eric Roth, Will Fetters &amp; Bradley Cooper) +2000<\/li>\n<li>The Ballad of Buster Scruggs\u00a0(Joel Coen &amp; Ethan Coen) +5000<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/watch\/movie\/blackkklansman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">BlacKkKlansman<\/a>\u00a0(Charlie Wachtel &amp; David Rabinowitz and Kevin Willmott &amp; Spike Lee) -250<\/li>\n<li>If Beale Street Could Talk\u00a0(Barry Jenkins) +600<\/li>\n<li>Can You Ever Forgive Me?\u00a0(Nicole Holofcener and Jeff Whitty) +275<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This category feels fairly wide open.
