Now you argue it will get a nomination because the Oscar has up to 10 entries in the category, despite you pointing out how rare it is for a non GG nominated film subsequently getting an Oscar nomination.

You obviously don't know how to read because no one said it's rare for a non-GG nominated movie to be nominated for an Oscar.

Hey. Guess what. You are right. I mis-remembered and I was wrong. I will admit it (something I doubt we will ever see you be big enough to do)

You keep forgetting (or at least intentionally pretending to ignore) the fact that the Academy increased the maximum nominations for Best Picture to 10

No I haven't. I in fact posted previously when you raised the subject that the increased number of Oscar nominations may be WW only hope for a possible nomination.

You also conveniently chose to forget it in your post here where you emphasise how common it is for GG best drama films to be nominated for best film at Academy Awards..it not as an amazing stat if you recognise there are mor Oscar nomibations is it?

So the Golden Globes nominated 5 movies for Best Motion Picture - Drama. That means, even if the Academy nominates all 5 of those movies for Best Picture, the Academy still has 5 more slots that it can use to nominate Wonder Woman.

Why focus on the Drama category only. If WW was likely to be nominated it would have been the the Comedy/Musical category. It seems to be where they put the less "high brow" contenders once the Drama category is full...I know WW is nether comedy or musical - but neither are The Martian, Get Out, Joy, American Hustle etc. WW didn't even make it into that category. In fact WW woman got ZERO Golden Globe nominations. Not looking too promising.

But of course all of this really boils down to the fact that you were so convinced WW would be nominated for GG best drama film that an Oscar nomination would be an almost certainty. Well as you previously posted back in October...

Wonder Woman has a good chance to get nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. Like I said before, it depends on the Golden Globes.
