With the beginning of the 2019/20 award season, here come first favorites. Bet on Parasite to win Oscars, AACTA or Golden Globe as it leads the best odds wherever it is nominated. If you are looking for a safe bet, this film is exactly what you need.

Parasite is definitely one of the best-rated films of the year. The premiere of the film at the Cannes Film Festival started its triumph on various award ceremonies. It has won the Palme d’Or in Cannes becoming the first South Korean film to do so. The movie was also nominated for three Golden Globes and chosen to compete for Oscars from its country. 

In addition, a black comedy thriller has 8.6/10 on IMDB and unbelievable 99% of positive reviews on RottenTomatoes. Sounds impressive, doesn’t it? So, let’s discover the odds on Parasite to win awards in 2020. 

Bet on Parasite to win Golden Globes

Considering the success of Parasite, online sportsbooks in South Korea predict that it will take an award at the Golden Globes. The plot of the film about poor & rich families is a classic theme that gets an appraisal. However, the comedy-drama genre of Parasite separates it from the other films about the class distinction. Therefore, this movie has all the chances to win a Golden Globe, mostly as a Best Foreign Language Film. As it didn’t get nominations in a Drama or Comedy category, Parasite stands as a favorite in its category. Leading 1.03 odds at 1xBET, the film leaves all its competitors far behind.

Another award where Bong Joon-ho’s film seems to be invincible is AACTA. The Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards nominated Parasite in its main category. The film will compete with The Irishman and Joker for the Best Film award but is likely to leave them both with empty hands. At least, the best AACTA odds belong to Parasite – 2.00.

Bet on Parasite to win Oscars too

Movie experts suppose that Parasite will follow last year’s Roma steps. During the 2018/19 awards season, Alfonso Cuaron’s black-and-white drama was among the main favorites to win Oscars too. It got 10 Academy Awards nominations, including Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film. Obviously, the jury couldn’t let one film to take both prizes, so it has won just in the last nomination. This year, the same situation is very likely to overtake Parasite. Bong Joon-ho’s film will definitely be nominated in both categories but will win only one. Therefore, the best odds on Parasite (1.15) to take Oscars touches upon international feature nomination.
