90th Annual Academy Awards

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

Why are people mad at Oldman winning? It's a great performance and his recognition is loooooong overdue.

 

[Schlosser85]

Are people mad at Oldman winning? Who cares.

 

[terry78]

I think they're mad because he doesn't care if he won or not. Ungrateful.

 

[Boom]

Why are people mad at Oldman winning? It's a great performance and his recognition is loooooong overdue.

Because he's standing in Timothee Chalamet's way. That's pretty much it.

 

[The Chris]

Because he's standing in Timothee Chalamet's way. That's pretty much it.

They can go in their corner and continue crying then. This is a long time coming for Gary Oldman, and he deserves it for said movie in my opinion. The kid was good but I was not completely amazed by him like these kids seem to be. Hell I think Hugh Jackman in Logan, Andy Serkis in War for The Planet of the Apes and James McAvoy in Split were better.

 

[Boom]

I'm seeing Call Me By Your Name this weekend so I'll finally get a chance to see what all the fuss is about.

I'm also planning on seeing Phantom Thread a second time. Focus Features should be ashamed of themselves for releasing this so late. It's borderline criminal how much this film is underperforming on the awards circuit. It's one of Paul Thomas Anderson's best. Simply sublime.

 

[MadderMaximus]

I *want* to see Call Me By Your Name, but I'm stuck waiting till it's near enough to watch it. Closest right now is two-bus-trip.

 

[Spider-Fan]

I am having that same issue with many Oscar hopefuls. I really want to see The Shape of Water, but not close enough to me yet. I am hoping once the nominations come out, my local theater will start getting the contending films.

 

[matrix_ghost]

Having just seen Blade Runner 2049 yesterday i'm hoping nominations in the following categories :

production design
VFX
cinematography
score

And hopefully a WIN FOR DEAKINS DAMMIT !

 

[Spider-Fan]

If the world were kind honestly, I would like to see Blade Runner 2049 get a BP nom like Mad Max: Fury Road did, but that won't happen. But, Roger Deakins MUST win!

Best Picture , Best Director can also be added IMO

 

[The Chris]

For me the only two films that compete with the directing of Blade Runner 2049 are Dunkirk and The Shape of Water, so I have found Denis Vilaneuve's absence in this award season especially annoying. I don't care that he was nominated last year.

Agreed. He deserves way more recognition.

you're about to witness lord and savior of the cinema, apparantely

 

[Kane52630]

The Shape of Water is getting a wide release this weekend.

 

[harlequinade]

Dafoe has let it go at that point

Also the clips from Three Billboards were not in the movie, Rockwell was surprised and Woody didn't seem to notice

 

[harlequinade]

I made a gif because I can't here Jenkins reaching for a drink at the exact moment Linney opens the envelope

Spoiler

 

[scarlet-witch]

Jenkin knows he's just there to drink.

 

[Luigi]

I know its a long shot but holding out hope for a nom for Hugh Jackman tomorrow.

 

[redhawk23]

Jackman's good but goddamn Patrick Stewart is where its at. Neither will happen, but still.

 

[Warhammer]

Oldman winning the Oscar will be like when Pacino won. It has been terribly overdue. He has deserved it for far too long.

 

[Warhammer]

Having just seen Blade Runner 2049 yesterday i'm hoping nominations in the following categories :

production design
VFX
cinematography
score

And hopefully a WIN FOR DEAKINS DAMMIT !

Deakins not winning this season will be a crime. I could watch a 2 hour movie of a campfire if he was the cinematographer.

How Long is that Nomination announcement normally? 1h?

5:22 PST. So in less than 4 hours.

I wonder if they will dare to snub Nolan for the 4th time?
