Shoot your shit. Also ASC went to a woman for the first time ever and we didn't even nominate her. The lot of you are sexist! AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER Russell Carpenter THE FABELMANS Jansus Kaminski NOPE Hoyte van Hoytema THE NORTHMAN Jarin Blaschke TAR Florian Hoffmeister TOP GUN: MAVERICK Claudio Miranda

Oh yeah, we're a box office forum. Have some awards related to that.

One of these feels like a loose case...and one got in with only one vote. We should probably watch more of these. ALL THE BEAUTY AND THE BLOODSHED FIRE OF LOVE JACKASS FOREVER MOONAGE DAYDREAM NAVALNY WILDCAT

I really should credit everyone here, but VFX workers should unionize and get better treatment!! Side note: No MCU this year! AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER THE BATMAN EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE NOPE THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING TOP GUN: MAVERICK

Alright, let's do this. A little bit of backround for tiebreakers. I usually managed to avoid the worst by using the most #1 votes, then #2, and so on. Only one category landed in a tie, largely because, a lot of y'all voted for yourselves. Tsk tsk. FUNNIEST USER The nominees are... @CJohn @CoolioD1 @IronJimbo @M37 @MrPink @SLAM! @XXR of the Galaxy

Take off at 5:30PM EST.

Alright, bitches. 6PM EST TONIGHT! THE 11TH BOFFY AWARDS NOMINATIONS!!!

ANNOUNCEMENT: WE'RE DELAYING THIS A WEEK! BALLOTS NOW DUE ON MARCH 3RD

and Berger won BAFTA. Feels like Daniels have the clearest path since Berger....you know, wasn't nominated lol.

The Titanic rerelease is making me remember one of my favorite threads in this forum's history:

Why not make one now? Blitz The Color Purple Dune: Part II Ferrari How Do You Live? Killers of the Flower Moon Maestro Oppenheimer Past Lives Saltburn

1. Everything Everywhere All at Once 2. The Fabelmans 3. Women Talking 4. The Banshees of Inisherin 5. Tar 6. Avatar: The Way of Water 7. Elvis 8. Top Gun: Maverick 9. Triangle of Sadness Holding out on All Quiet getting a theatrical rerelease before I watch that.

Locking these in now. Let's go. NGNG predictions: RRR makes it into picture after all. Ana De Armas replaces Davis in Best Actress - I think Williams makes it in after all and I fear she's the most vulnerable. No Close in International Film No Fire of Love in Documentary 'She Said' completely shut out No John Williams

https://annieawards.org/nominations The race for the fifth slot is chaotic. Sea Beast/Wendell make it in here, Inu-Oh has a presence, PGA nominated Minions 2, and The Bad Guys is still lingering (albeit with dying chances) I guess W&W is still the safest pick. Aside from Early Man, every single Laika and Aardman (Stop Motion) animated film has gotten nominated since the category's inception. The medium goes a LONG way with the academy and it will probably push this over the line.

I think Triangle of Sadness still has a LOT of potential to play well with this academy, especially with how well it's doing with European audiences. I'm not even ruling out it making it into the BAFTA five. I'd give it the edge over Aftersun to be the English European film to make it over (ugh). THAT BEING SAID....I think Wells is going to pull a Hamaguchi/Pawlikowski and make it into director after a BAFTA nomination. Pretty much safe Avatar: The Way of Water The Banshees of Inisherin Elvis Everything Everywhere All At Once The Fabelmans Tar Top Gun: Maverick Pick three of these I guess Aftersun All Quiet on the Western Front Babylon Triangle of Sadness The Whale Women Talking Of these....I'll say All Quiet, Whale, and Women Talking. With Triangle of Sadness as my alternate pick.

If we were hypothetically going with 2011-2020 rules for nominations, I think it would be... All Quiet on the Western Front Avatar: The Way of Water The Banshees of Inisherin Elvis Everything Everywhere All At Once The Fabelmans Tar Top Gun: Maverick

True, a lot of schools aren't back in until next week too, and this is going to have a lot of teens. High 20s would still be a win, IMO. Either way, I think you're gonna see Avatar at #1 and M3GAN at #2 for most of January...
