Keaton would need to win BAFTA to give himself any chance, and I don't see him beating Redmayne there.

Do they want a prediction in every category? I'd say wait until the DGA.
I haven't seen Boyhood yet, so I can't really say anything about Arquette. I think the other three are locked indeed, they were all terrific.

Adapted: Either Whiplash or Imitation Game....leaning towards the former

Live Action: Aya seems to be garnering a lot of praise. But so is The Phone Call. Tough one

Best Documentary: Citizenfour

Best Animated: HTTYD 2. Alternative: Tale of Princess Kaguya.....but I think Dragon's taking it.

It's got nothing to do with how good they are.

Arquette's win is even more secure than the other three. Simmons and Moore are also almost secure although Moore is not as safe. The real acting race is between Keaton and Redmayne.

Moore has been safe for months now, same with Simmons.

I think Pike is the most loved Nominee in that category, but Moore has snagged majority of the awards, so she'll rather safe. Once Whiplash was released, he was pretty much a lock from then onwards.

Most loved by who? Not the industry certainly. She's prob 5th in the race tbh.

Less loved than Cotillard and Jones? I don't think so.
