If Timothee loses, it's one of the biggest chokes (from a campaigning standpoint) in recent Oscar history

He was coming off beloved and "due" after his amazing performances in CMBYN and A Complete Unknown. While his SAG speech was mildly controversial, for the most part it was very well received.

If the boy had just SHUT UP and at most just done his corny rap videos and that Memeable Zoom video he would've been fine. Instead he pretended to be "method" bragging about how a year from now it "Would all make sense" (aka he already had the. Oscar won), went on a blasphemous "career retrospective" tour acting as if he's had this long illustrious career and gave extremely arrogant interviews. NONE of it helped.

People can argue he was doing it for promo or he was in character, but as he soon he started getting significant backlash he shut the F up for a few weeks.

Even dating a kardashian, all he had to do was be HUMBLE and keep his head down like MBJ did smartly, and yet now here we are. Timothee should have been a lock for the Oscar but at this point the betting favorite is MBJ.

Timothee has no one to blame but himself. I only hope if he loses he doesn't throw a tantrum in interviews and risk ruining the chance he can win another Oscar anytime soon. But this was a fumble of epic proportions.
