Ezen Baklattan Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 It's interesting to ponder what the results would've been if the Voice Acting Oscars had been around for Years 1-3. I think Hamill would have gotten his Supporting Voice Acting Oscar in Year 1 if so. You could give him his due this year, hint hint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezen Baklattan Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I love him, too. <3 It will be a tough choice, I must say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Anyway, here's Best Supporting Actor Pretty much locked Jeff Bridges- The Giver Chiwetel Ejiofor- The Bronx is Burning Don't think I need to go into much depth for this. Both are widely acclaimed actors in the Oscar Big 4 with very meaty roles to let them shine. Easy nominations. Fighting for the last spots Ty Simpkins- Mushishi Gael Garcia Bernal- Resonance Aaron Tyler Johnson- The Deadline Josh Hutcherson- Cinema Studies Clive Owen- Two Way Road These are the remaining major players from the major Oscar contenders, so the remaining three slots should go to them. Exactly who, I'm not entirely sure. Simpkins is still a kid, but he's in one of the Oscar Big 4 directed by a director known for being able to incredible performances out of kids (Speaking of Mushishi, Gibson may be able to sneak a nom, but I think Simpkins is more likely). Bernal is in the other Big 4, but I don't think his role has much meat to it, being a creepy perfectionist and that's about it. The other three, meanwhile, are all in well-received films that make good use of them, but have pretty fierce competition for this spot. Potential Dark Horse: Anyone from The Concert's End Well, that movie does have pretty much everyone in existence in. It wouldn't be surprising if at least one nom sneaked through. I'm hoping Alan Rickman. Because, dammit, I love me some Alan Rickman. Most Likely Winner: Jeff Bridges- The Giver Tough choice between Bridges and Ejiofor, but I think Bridges might just take it. Not to be a dick towards Alpha, but even without reading it, I wouldn't feel right awarding Jeff Bridges for The Giver when he's playing the role in real life in a few months... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rukaio101 Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) Okay, since I'm unlikely to get through all this in time due to a) generally being unmotivated and b ) the Oscar picks literally starting tomorrow, I've decided just to bite the bullet and post my nominations for the remaining Oscar categories here. Then, if you want to ask about a film that's on (or not on) any of my nominations lists just do so and I'll give you my reasoning as to why it should (or shouldn't) be on there. At the moment, it's nominations only. If you want me to post my winners, I will do so but be warned that most of the Technical Categories will lean very Mushishi-centric. Because I have spent a lot of time and fictional (and real) money trying to establish it as the Gravity-esque movie of the year. (Speaking of, that payment will be in your account by Friday, Alpha) Best Documentary Feature Guardian of the West Twinkies The Normans Flappy Bird Time Space & One Blue Box Best Ensemble The Concert's End The Bronx is Burning Starcraft: Brood War Mushishi Dragon Age: Awakening Best Original Song "The World is Waiting"- Hand Drawn Heroes "Everyone Needs a Home"- Flowers for Algernon "I'm Free"- The Innocent "Catch That Pigeon!"- Catch the Pigeon "Alcohol of Fame"- Keg Party Best Cinematography Mushishi The Bronx is Burning Resonance The Giver The Who's Tommy Best Film Editing The Bronx is Burning Resonance The Giver Mushishi The Who's Tommy Best Production Design The Concert's End Mushishi The Who's Tommy The Bronx is Burning Starcraft: Brood War Best Costumes The Concert's End The Bronx is Burning Age of Empires Pompeii Dragon Age: Awakening Best Makeup & Hairstyling Patchwork The Concert's End The Who's Tommy Freddy vs Jason vs Ash Dracula Best Sound Mixing Mushishi Resonance The Who's Tommy The Giver Starcraft: Brood War Best Sound Editing Resonance The Giver The Who's Tommy Starcraft: Brood War Mushishi Best Visual Effects Mushishi Starcraft: Brood War Dragon Age Awakening Stranger in a Strange Land American Gods Best Use of Action Starcraft: Brood War The Dresden Files: Storm Front Dragon Age: Awakening Run & Gun Age of Empires Edited May 5, 2014 by Za Rukaio! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 It's just never happened before because no one's ever pushed for it before. I think Spark or Spark 2 could have gotten a nod for example if pushed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
