How about this for top 10:

1. Timothée Chalamet – Marty Supreme
2. Rose Byrne – If I Had Legs I'd Kick You
3. Jessie Buckley – Hamnet
4. Wagner Moura – The Secret Agent
5. Michael B. Jordan – Sinners
6. Sean Penn – One Battle After Another
7. Stellan Skarsgård – Sentimental Value
8. Ethan Hawke – Blue Moon
9. Leonardo DiCaprio – One Battle After Another
10. Renate Reinsve – Sentimental Value

I'd move Leo ahead of Penn.

1. Timothée Chalamet – Marty Supreme
2. Rose Byrne – If I Had Legs I'd Kick You
3. Jessie Buckley – Hamnet
4. Wagner Moura – The Secret Agent
5. Michael B. Jordan – Sinners
6. Leonardo DiCaprio – One Battle After Another
7. Sean Penn – One Battle After Another
8. Stellan Skarsgård – Sentimental Value
9. Ethan Hawke – Blue Moon
10. Renate Reinsve – Sentimental Value

11. Jacob Elordi – Frankenstein 
12. Amy Madigan – Weapons 
13. Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas – Sentimental Value
14. Lee Byung-hun – No Other Choice
15. Benicio del Toro – One Battle After Another 
16. Teyana Taylor – One Battle After Another 
17. Joel Edgerton – Train Dreams
18. Jesse Plemons – Bugonia
19. Emma Stone – Bugonia 
20. Elle Fanning – Sentimental Value

Just my opinion - but I'm thinking we are underrating Sean Penn while overrating Michael B. Jordan. Other than that, the list looks great.

How about this?

1. Timothée Chalamet – Marty Supreme
2. Rose Byrne – If I Had Legs I'd Kick You
3. Jessie Buckley – Hamnet
4. Wagner Moura – The Secret Agent
5. Sean Penn – One Battle After Another
6. Stellan Skarsgård – Sentimental Value
7. Michael B. Jordan – Sinners
8. Leonardo DiCaprio – One Battle After Another
9. Ethan Hawke – Blue Moon
10. Renate Reinsve – Sentimental Value

11. Jacob Elordi – Frankenstein
12. Amy Madigan – Weapons
13. Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas – Sentimental Value
14. Lee Byung-hun – No Other Choice
15. Benicio del Toro – One Battle After Another
16. Teyana Taylor – One Battle After Another
17. Joel Edgerton – Train Dreams
18. Jesse Plemons – Bugonia
19. Emma Stone – Bugonia
20. Elle Fanning – Sentimental Value

Think we can just switch Sean Penn and MBJ on my latest list, think Penn's and Leo's performances in OBAA are similarly acclaimed with Academy win maybe being a tiebreaker in favor of the former.

Ya very good point. I don't think Leo needs to be moved down. However, I feel like MBJ's Oscar win shouldn't give too much credence, I don't remember too many critics singling out his performance back in spring of 2025.

MP's latest update looks great, btw.

Think we can put it on the first page? Guess Man could still argue Leo v Penn & Stellan v MBJ.

1. Timothée Chalamet – Marty Supreme
2. Rose Byrne – If I Had Legs I'd Kick You
3. Jessie Buckley – Hamnet
4. Wagner Moura – The Secret Agent
5. Sean Penn – One Battle After Another
6. Leonardo DiCaprio – One Battle After Another
7. Stellan Skarsgård – Sentimental Value
8. Michael B. Jordan – Sinners
9. Ethan Hawke – Blue Moon
10. Renate Reinsve – Sentimental Value

11. Jacob Elordi – Frankenstein
12. Amy Madigan – Weapons
13. Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas – Sentimental Value
14. Lee Byung-hun – No Other Choice
15. Benicio del Toro – One Battle After Another
16. Teyana Taylor – One Battle After Another
17. Joel Edgerton – Train Dreams
18. Jesse Plemons – Bugonia
19. Emma Stone – Bugonia
20. Elle Fanning – Sentimental Value

I'm fine with this list.

Looks very "front page worthy" to me, thank you both.

Man I really need to see If I Had Legs if the performance is better than Hamnet*.

*not what we're actually saying

It is 100%
