Some guy on Reddit ran a prediction model and it is at 100% so far:

https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/487kb1/official_oscar_thread_2016/d0hi68q

I trained a machine learning model to predict the top 8 awards using historical data. You can check out the predictions and collected data over here: www.filmawardwinners.com/predictions[1]
Here's what the computer overlord came up with:
Picture - The Big Short
Director - Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu
Leading Actor - Leonardo DiCaprio
Leading Actress - Brie Larson
Supporting Actor - Sylvester Stallone
Supporting Actress - Alicia Vikander
Adapted Screenplay - The Big Short
Original Screenplay - Spotlight
I think it most likely will get Picture wrong, I'd be surprised if Spotlight or Revenant don't win.

At least they picked a good hateful eight scene.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Vikander already has an Oscar and she is only getting started.

 

[Maintenance]

first robot to win an oscar

Heh

 

[StopMakingSense]

Goggins really got screwed.

He was by far the standout in H8.

At least he already has an Oscar

 

[pringles]

Yay Alicia making Sweden proud!

 

[ckohler]

what are these thanks at the bottom? when did they get those?

New this year. They are trying to curb people reading off long lists. The nominees know about them.

 

[Androidsleeps]

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

 

[CoolOff]

Fucking Swedes with their perfect english

So Jealous lol

Honestly, she takes it to an extreme. She sounds like my dad when he speaks English, it's too perfect.

 

[sangreal]

That should have been for ExMachina so fair enough.

^

 

[Discotheque]

Lmao rock actually got stacey dash out here as an Oscars representative for black america

Wowww

Rock da gawd. He made everyone nervous with that monologue

 

[PodcastFips]

Reasoning?

? Why?

Simply because anything can happen now.

 

[serenewarfare]

I haven't payed enough attention to see the consensus, so I'll ask here. Is this Leo's year?

 

[Roo]

She totally deserved it.
Loved her performance on The Danish Girl

 

[darkwing-buck]

I hope Brie Larson wins tonight.

 

[Dali]

She looks like a totally different ehtnicity. I guess pale for the film borrow brown for real life.

 

[Sanjuro]

She totally deserved it.
Loved her performance on The Danish Girl

Eh.

Was her father killed by a helicopter?

 

[iamblades]

Her natural voice/accent is so weird. She talks through her nose.

 

[friskykillface]

Supporting Actor - Sylvester Stallone
[/I]

do it

 

[FTF]

I hope Brie Larson wins tonight.

She should.

 

[Johndoey]

Should've been Leigh but whatever.

 

[bigboss370]

Superman lookin damn good

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

I haven't payed enough attention to see the consensus, so I'll ask here. Is this Leo's year?

An asteroid would have to take out Kodak Theatre for him to not get the oscar.

 

[Kadin]

what are these thanks at the bottom? when did they get those?

It's their new attempt to speed up speeches by doing that. Not sure it's really working as they expected.

 

[Puck Beaverton]

Vikander already has on Oscar and she is only getting started.

Yeah Lupita Nyong'o is on fire right now.

 

[sunshine and gasoline]

Vikander won? Should have been for a different movie but oh well.

 

[SlickVic]

Didn't realize Vikander was also in Ex Machina. Great year for her to say the least.

 

[NYR]

At least they picked a good hateful eight scene.

It was basically the only one without a swear, the n-word or a man beating a women for a period greater than 30 seconds.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

Superman lookin damn good

I think you have a stream delay

 

[thoseAREmySHOES]

At least they picked a good hateful eight scene.

Yeah, I was curious what scene they would choose - bold pick, but I approve!

 

[Haribi]

So happy for her, has a bright future ahead of her.

3/3 for me so far

 

[Sanjuro]

Superman lookin damn good

Brandon Routh does look amazing.

 

[Empty]

good performance but insane category fraud

 

[con-ca-te-nate]

An asteroid would have to take out Kodak Theatre for him to not get the oscar.

Dolby Theater but... Yeah.

 

[vinnygambini]

I can't believe the Stacey Dash joke

Everybody was like what is this woman doing here hahah

 

[VE3TRO]

i should watch Whiplash

Damn good film that.

 

[Dominator]

Really wanted Kate Winslet... Oh well, Alicia was great too.

 

[FTF]

She was a -400 favourite on betting sites

Didn't realize that, thought Kate was the favorite.

 

[Oersted]

I haven't payed enough attention to see the consensus, so I'll ask here. Is this Leo's year?

According to every single article and report, yes. The white man will finally get acknowledged by some white people, like he actually already is.

 

[Salsa]

sly winning gonna be glorious

 

[NYR]

Yeah Lupita Nyong'o is on fire right now.

Sarcasm? She was just in Star Wars and is in a blockbuster in The Jungle Book.

 

[Mimosa97]

Wat

So many swedish actors who speak perfect english with a perfect accent

 

[Hasphat'sAnts]

Such bullshit she was nominated as a supporting lol.

 

[fernoca]

what are these thanks at the bottom? when did they get those?

All nominees were recquired to submot a list in case they won to reduce time of their speeches.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Yeah Lupita Nyong'o is on fire right now.

Lupita is black, this is different. Vikander is young, pale, and talented

 

[Booker.DeWitt]

If Leo does not win, we riot!!

 

[smokeandmirrors]

That should have been for ExMachina so fair enough.

this

 

[HowZatOZ]

What's the best stream? Was watching on channel 9's coverage but had to move on.

 

[LiK]

If Leo does not win, we riot!!

bookers everywhere will be sad

 

[F0rneus]

sly winning gonna be glorious

He better. A win for him, is basically a win for Creed IMO. Film deserved so much more noms.
