One prediction market prices this story:

  • Narnia — the market puts it at 5%, closing 31 Dec 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Narnia receives a nomination for Best Visual Effects at the 99th Academy Awards. It resolves to No if it does not receive that specific nomination. Readers often mistake the release of a trailer or general critical acclaim as sufficient, but only an official Oscar nomination counts.
