Well, there you have it. The Revenant is looking very strong heading into the Oscar race, and even though I said I was betting on the PGA's pick The Big Short...I may be changing my mind. The DGA winner has historically been strongest after all, and that PGA-only stat is still fairly new. It's possible, but with all the technical support, Leo's impending Best Actor win, and Inarritu's inevitable Best Director win- it sure seems like it should be The Revenant now, shouldn't it? Elsewhere, BAFTA can sometimes be helpful in deciding some of the below the line categories- looks like it will be Revenant vs. Mad Max for most of them, but Star Wars now seems all but assured for Visual Effects. I think it's either a Revenant sweep or The Big Short wins 3- Picture, Editing and Screenplay. Still haven't decided which one to bet on yet, but predicting a split has always been risky, so I am now leaning towards The Revenant for everything.
