10 Blockbusters From 2017 That Should Win Oscars (But Won't)

4. Beauty & The Beast (Best Original Song - "Evermore")

Why It Should Win: Easily the best of the original songs written for the live-action Beauty and the Beast remake, "Evermore" is a classically sweeping Disney song in every sense of the word, and effortlessly sits alongside the classics fans know and love.

It certainly doesn't hurt that Dan Stevens' vocal work wasn't auto-tuned into oblivion, as was a problem with most of Emma Watson's, ensuring Evermore is a majestic, emotional addition to Disney's musical canon.

Why It Won't: Though blockbusters tend to do incredibly well here, the generally mixed response to the film as a whole could hurt it here, especially with the music-focused Pixar film Coco set to release later in the year, and likely having an absolute belter of a song up its sleeve.
