i sort of think it would be better for the Oscars to be earlier in the season and roll off the festival/Christmas release momentum more. like, speculating six months before the ceremony is profoundly stupid...but maybe that has more to do with when the Oscars are than the pomp and circumstance of the festivals?
I agree. I'm not entirely sure why the ceremony is so late in the winter these days. My hunch is that they like the support the Hollywood ecosystem. The publicists need time to earn their paychecks!
