The 2020 Oscars Predictions: Who Will Win Best Picture? 1917 Or Parasite?

We’re just a few hours away from the 92nd Annual Academy Awards, where Sam Mendes’ 1917 and Bong Joon-Ho’s Parasite are the ones to look out for in the Best Picture race.

1917 has already won Best Picture at the Producers Guild of America (PGA) Awards, which means the WWI epic is likely to repeat its success at the Oscars. (In the past decade, all but two PGA winners went on to win Best Picture.)

But don’t rule out Parasite: it won best ensemble at the Screen Actors Guild. (Remember 2009’s Best Picture Oscar winner Slumdog Millionaire? Like Parasite, the Danny Boyle movie received zero Oscar nominations for its actors, but won the best ensemble SAG Award.)

Here, 8days.sg, with a little help from contributor Tay Yek Keak, try to predict the winners in the major categories.
