Yesterday, I shared what likely are my final Oscar predictions. They can be found here, in all of their (hopeful) glory. On Tuesday, the Academy Award nominations will be announced. In the meantime, we wait. As one of the ways to pass the time, I wanted to do an Awards Radar Community Question centered on the No Guts No Glory sort of prediction. These are the Hail Mary type picks that make or break your predictions. So, today we’re asking for yours. Do you have a No Guts No Glory pick this year? If so, it’s time to share.
Maybe you’re going all in on a film doing better than expected? For me, I’ve got Saltburn doing perhaps surprisingly well. Perhaps you agree there. Or, could it be that you have The Color Purple over performing. You could also just have a surprise nominee, especially in an acting category. If you do, be sure to tell us.
On the flip side, maybe you’re predicting a big snub? The one many are worried about is Greta Gerwig missing Best Director for Barbie. Are you on that bandwagon? What about Margot Robbie falling short in Best Actress? They may not be fun possibilites to think about, but there are always nomination morning surprises, so prepare yourself!
Whatever your No Guts No Glory pick is, we want to hear about it. Snubs, surprises, however you’re choosing to tackle this question, don’t be shy. We’re eager to find out your predictions before the big morning on Tuesday…
What is your No Guts No Glory prediction for Tuesday? Let us know!




Amerioca Ferrera.
America Ferrera is definitely a NGNG this year!
Charles Melton. I still believe!
He’s in the thick of it, for sure!
Gretta Gerwig being snubbed in director (which I know you’ll agree would be very disappointing).
Sandra Huller getting in for Supporting Actress as well as Actress.
The Killer getting in for both Sound and Editing.
Indeed. Love the Sound pick for The Killer. It’s not impossible, either.
However, maybe Gretta being snubbed isn’t really a No Guts call right now so how about Lanthimos also being snubbed in Director.
Yorgos would be a major snub.
