Took long enough.

 

[Sawyer]

It is genuinely insane that such a significant aspect of so many films has gone unrecognized for so long.

Like, seriously, it took almost a CENTURY??

 

[emielaen]

Extremely well deserved but I wonder if we're gonna get good, thoughtful noms or kinda blockbustery toss ups like we usually get with VFX. They usually lean toward nominating the films with the "most" VFX. The right one tends to win, but ya know.

Right on, because all the insane stunts he pulled off, especially in Rumble In The Bronx?



Zoe Bell deserves one too.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Well, he did get his Oscar.



Also thankfully while he was still alive stunt legend Hal Needham.

They couldn't get an image of an actual Oscar?

Might have been on purpose since it's about stunt work.

Huge news after being called out on it for years.

Good news but how are they going to clock that? Screeners that track if they've watched it all the way through? A quiz sent to Academy voters with specific questions about each nominated film?

 

[DarkKnight88]

This should fall in the no duh category.

Make them take a quiz would be incredible lol

I thought this became a thing after the To Leslie incident.

The To Leslie thing was about social media influencing during campaign season.

Oh okay. I thought part of it was that the Academy members didn't actually watch it and just added Andrea Riseborough because of word of mouth from fellow actors.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Coogler for Best Director, Screenplay, and Picture.

Maybe.
But, it’s Early.
I would remind everyone that there were number of people last time who were CERTAIN Dune 2 was going to take it.
Last years big winner ended up being a film that a lot of people never heard of, let alone watched.
