Dune is nominated for 10 Oscars including visual effects, cinematography, editing, screenplay, score, sound, production design, costume design plus makeup and hairstyling.
Paul Atreides, a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet's exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence, only those who can conquer their own fear will survive.
Dune Best Oscar Chances
Dune is the favorite to win Best Original Score but at -600 odds, Best Sound Mixing -900, Best Visual Effects -2500 (too pricey but an absolute "lock"), Best Production Design -300 (actually good value and close to a "lock"), Best Film Editing -115 or near EVEN odds, Best Cinematography -1000,
While the payout odds are solid at 4-1 or $40 for every $10 bet for Best Costume, it is NOT the favorite. Cruella is the decent sized -600 favorite here.
Dune pays out $30 for every $10 bet with the Eyes of Tammy Faye favored but hardly a "lock" at -275.
Best Adapted Screenplay is a long shot at 18-1 odds.
Best Picture is a huge longshot that pays $500 on a $10 bet.
