The Oscar Narrative: Final Winner Predictions - Cinematography, Costume Design, Film Editing, Makeup and Hairstyling, and Production Design

Best Cinematography

Will Win - Michael Bauman "One Battle After Another"

Could Win - Autumn Durald Arkapaw "Sinners"

Should Win - Michael Bauman "One Battle After Another"

Commentary - The critics went hard for Sinners, but when the guilds came along, One Battle After Another's Michael Bauman won BAFTA and ASC, and honestly, it makes sense when you watch both films. This is one of those categories that could show whether Sinners is in upset mode, but I think it's One Battle's to lose.

Best Costume Design

Will Win - Frankenstein

Could Win - Sinners or One Battle After Another

Should Win - Frankenstein

Commentary - CDG plus BAFTA, plus the crafts favorite means that Frankenstein should win, and it is well-deserved. But, after the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever upset, never discount the great Ruth Carter. That being said, those costumes were more iconic and elaborate, which often does well here. Again, that leans towards Frakenstein.

Best Film Editing

Will Win - One Battle After Another

Could Win - F1 or Sinners

Should Win - One Battle After Another

Commentary - ACE Eddie plus BAFTA is hard to beat, and it is one of the longest films of the year, that doesn't feel that long at all. That is the sign of brilliant editing, along with the constant tonal shifts, and expert action sequences. Watch out for F1, and again, if Sinners wins here, its winning BP.

Best Makeup and Hairstyling

Will Win - Frankenstein    

Could Win - Sinners

Should Win - Frankenstein

Commentary - Will be jaw-dropped if it doesn't win here.

Best Production Design

Will Win - Frankenstein

Could Win - Sinners or Hamnet

Should Win - Frankenstein or One Battle After Another

Commentary - Again, the pure audacity and brilliance of Frankenstein (plus ADG and BAFTA) should equal a win here. One Battle would be an inspired choice.

The Oscar Narrative: Final Winner Predictions - Best Original Score, Original Song, Sound, and Visual Effects

Best Original Score

Will Win - Ludwig Goransson "Sinners"

Could Win - Jonny Greenwood "One Battle After Another"

Should Win - Jonny Greenwood "One Battle After Another"

Commentary - As always, there are so few precursors that lineup, but the ones that do, all lined up behind another Ludwig Goransson win for Sinners. For my money, Jonny Greenwood is underappreciated this season for his genre-bending work in One Battle After Another.

Best Original Song

Will Win - EJAE, Mark Sonnenblick, Joong Gyu Kwak, Yu Han Lee, Hee Dong Nam, Jeong Hoon Seo and Teddy Park "Golden" from "KPop Demon Hunters"

Could Win - Raphael Saadiq and Ludwig Goransson "I Lied to You" From "Sinners"

Should Win -  Nick Cave and Bryce Dessner "Train Dreams" from "Train Dreams"

Commentary - This is one of those categories that will test the strength of Sinners. Every major precursor has gone to Golden, the smash hit from KPop Demon Hunters. But if voters are really into Sinners, then I Lied to You could sneak in for the win. 

Best Sound

Will Win - F1

Could Win - Sinners, One Battle After Another, Sirat

Should Win - Sirat

Commentary - F1 won CAS and BAFTA, which makes me think its winning here, and it is the most sound of the bunch. Sirat would be the inspired choice, and if either Sinners or One Battle win here, it is a cue to the strength of the films overall. 

Best Visual Effects

Will Win - Avatar: Fire and Ash

Could Win - F1 or Sinners

Should Win - Avatar: Fire and Ash

Commentary - The obvious choice often loses to a Best Picture nominee. So while I think Fire and Ash is the obvious choice, its Oscar fortunes have diminished, which opens the race up to either Sinners or F1 to surprise.
