Three Billboards External Ebbing, Missouri 7/5
The Shape of Water 2/1
Get Out 13/2
Lady Bird 22/1

Phone Me Phantom Thread 80/1
The Post 100/1
Darkest Hour 100/1
THESE TWO LIVE UNDERDOGS ARE PROVIDING BETTING VALUE IN THE OSCAR ODDS FOR BEST PICTURE
The Shape of Water and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri would be the front runners to win Best Picture at the 90th Academy Awards, but lovers of the underdog could find value in Lady Bird or Get Out when the Oscars hand the hardware to the best in Hollywood on March 4.
What Will Win: The momentum is behind Martin McDonagh’s Three Billboards Outdoor Ebbing, Missouri, following its wins at the Golden Globes, the Screen Actors Guild Awards and the BAFTAs – most dependable ancient Oscar indicators. Additionally, it has a social conscience that is timely although not overly divisive, which might put it directly in the sweet spot of what Academy voters want to market (or to be seen as marketing ).
What Should Win: The Shape of Water also picked up some important early awards from critics groups, in addition to the top honor from the Critics Choice Awards, and it boasts the maximum overall nominations (with 13). Guillermo del Toro’s fable about the love affair between a mute cleaning woman and a mysterious amphibious humanoid creature is also more creative and ambitious than the majority of the other nominees, but it might prove too bizarre to prevail as Best Picture.
