I'm really at a loss here, because I didn't see as many movies as you, but, because the pickings are slim.
I agree with Wind River choices, I thought it was the beast of the year as far as I'm concerned. So definitely Renner and Olsen for acting, the director, cinematography and Best Picture. Best Screenplay.
Wonder Woman - Gal Gadot, Best Actress; director, and Best Film.
Meghan Levy - Kate Mara, Best Actress. Edie Falco, Best Supporting
Logan - Hugh Jackman, Best Actor; Dafne Keen, supporting actress, Patrick Stewart, supporting actor, Best Film
Ana De Armas, Best Actress - Blade Runner
Connie Nielsen; Best Supporting Actress - Wonder Woman
Now, the year ain't over so there's some that may come up and surprise people;
I'm thinking about The Post with Hanks and Streep in particular. I may add some later but that's it for now. I'm not sure about the Last Jedi, but I've heard good things, we'll see.
P.S. Almost forgot, Thor: Ragnarok could be considered for Best Film.

I haven't seen Thor yet.
Didn't know that you saw Meghan Levy.
I am hopeful for Last Jedi.
Still haven't seen Book of Henry.
But the so-called blockbusters have been disappointing.

Yeah, I saw Meghan Levy on Hulu recently and I liked it, especially because of Kate Mara, she's awesome (although I'm still in love with Elizabeth Olsen, Mmmmmmm, the Scarlet Witch).
I think you'll like Thor, I still haven't seen The Book of Henry - but it's on my list. I'm hopeful for the Last Jedi.
I agree, the big blockbusters have turned out to be major duds, well most of them.

Quote:If you liked Kate Mara she is adorable in Shooter, the long delayed film from Point of Impact about 20 years before - the beginning of the Bob Lee Swagger stories.

My suggestion for the Oscars is that nobody watch it or click on any links online about the results.
Just a big narcissistic rich persons party where they get to sprinkle in a bunch of their elitist ides on how we should all live our lives while they often tend to do the exact opposite behind closed doors.

Translation: who do you think gave the best or most exemplary performance in cinema, regardless of the PC dreck the Academy will lower themselves to nominate or vote for.

LOL... oh, sorry.
That being said, I've only seen maybe 3 movies all year, and I'm not sure if any of them were even made this year. I now ARQ wasn't... maybe Welcome to Me was? I don't even remember if I watched a third one.
Meh... give all the awards to Welcome to Me and Kristen Wigg if it was. She seems really nice, and she took a serious beating last year for Ghostbusters.
Do Right, Be Right. :)
