THE CRAZIEST OSCARS RACE? ONE BATTLE VS SINNERS - OSCAR PREDICTIONS! | The Popcorn Podcast - EP 107

DISCLAIMER! This episode was recorded prior to the SAG Awards 2026. This year sees without a doubt one of the most exciting and unpredictable Oscars race we've had in quite some time. So many categories, particularly the acting ones, are split. Will it Timmy be picking up his first Oscar or will the Sinners momentum carry Michael B Jordan to that Best Actor win? Those golden statues are truly anyone's for grabs! The narrative is looking like One Battle After Another vs Sinners - but who will come out on top? Well, myself, Panwa and Mickey discuss and debate who we think will be taking home those golden statues, as well as who we personally would like to see win as well. But make sure you stick around for some gruelling Oscar Trivia games! This year’s Oscars race has shaped up to be one of the most exciting and unpredictable in recent memory. With so many categories — especially the acting races — still wide open, the big question remains: will Timothée Chalamet pick up his first Academy Award, or will the momentum behind Sinners carry Michael B. Jordan to a Best Actor win? The narrative of the night is shaping up to be One Battle After Another vs Sinners — but when the envelopes open, who will actually come out on top? In this episode, Panwa, Mickey and I break down our full Oscars predictions — discussing and debating who we think will win, as well as who we personally want to see take home those golden statues. And of course, it wouldn’t be an episode without some gruelling Oscar trivia games thrown into the mix! Do let us know what your predictions for this year's Oscars are, and be sure to leave a LIKE if you enjoyed this video!

This channel exists because I love films. Genuinely. Watching them, talking about them, debating them, and inevitably overthinking them long after the credits roll. If that sounds like you, you’re very much in the right place. Here you’ll find in-depth reviews of the latest releases, spoiler-heavy discussions, predictions, debates, and deep dives - covering everything from the biggest blockbusters to indie gems and awards contenders. Whether we’re breaking down new films, revisiting old favourites, or arguing about the future of cinema, this channel is all about thoughtful and occasionally unhinged film chat… plus a lot of games. Like, probably more games than strictly necessary, so make sure you play along too! #Oscars #Oscar #Predictions #Film #Movie #Podcast 00:00 - Hello and Welcome Back Mickey and Panwa! 01:42 - The most exciting Oscars yet? 03:49 - Disclaimers 04:22 - Original Screenplay 05:41 - Adapted Screenplay 06:40 - Makeup & Hairstyling 08:16 - Visual Effects 08:53 - Sound 10:20 - Original Song 13:09 - Original Score 17:46 - Costume Design 19:49 - Production Design 20:45 - International Feature Film 25:04 - Animated Feature Film 28:03 - Editing 30:50 - Cinematography 33:59 - Directing 35:05 - Actress in a Supporting Role 39:59 - Actor in a Supporting Role 44:56 - Actress in a Leading Role (Part 1) 47:20 - Cinema Etiquette Rant 48:45 - Actress in a Leading Role (Part 2) 49:07 - Actor in a Leading Role 58:25 - Best Picture (Part 1) 1:05:06 - Casting 1:07:59 - Best Picture (Part 2) 1:09:40 - What are your predictions? 1:10:07 - GAME: Guess the Best Picture Winners from the Cast! 1:12:04 - GAME: Guess the Actor!
