Btw, where the hell is Blackfish in the documentary category?

 

That's as big a snub as Hanks not getting in for CP.

[baumer]

Granted bad movies get nominated for make up and hairstyling, costumes, and visual effects all the time, but still.Here are movies that are Oscar nomineesThe Lone RangerBad GrandpaThe Great GatsbyThe Book ThiefAlone Yet Not AloneMovies that aren't oscar nomineesShort Term 12Fruitvale StationMudBlackfishThe Spectacular Now

 

Have you seen The Book Thief?  It's a terrific film that was very unfairly overlooked in a few categories.

[Blankments]

Gonna do some in-depth analysis of the nominees:

 

Best Picture

Alright, even though I'm kinda pissed Banks missed out. It was my favorite straight-awards drama this year

 

Best Actor

WHERE IS TOM HANKS AGJKLDSJGKLSJLKFGJLKS

 

Best Actress

WHERE IS EMMA THOMPSON GDLNDSGJSFLKNHLKSFN FUCK YOU MERYL

 

Best Supporting Actor

BRADLEY COOPER WHY ARE YOU HERE GAHHHH

 

Best Supporting Actress

Eh, Lupita's gonna win anyway, so I'm cool with this

 

Best Screenplay

I have no complaints with these categories

 

Best Animated Feature

It's a joke that Brave won this while Monsters U didn't even get nominated. Monsters U was easily the #2 animated movie of last year (after Frozen which will win here anyway)

 

Foreign/Doc

Didn't see any last year, don't care

 

Now with techies, I'll only do the ones I care about:

 

Best Cinematography

Sweet, Prisoners got in

 

Best Costume Design

Gatsbyyyyy

 

Best Editing

Surprised by the Rush snub here; thought it was locked here

 

Best Makeup and Hairstyling

in the best way at Bad Grandpa being nominated and American Hustle not

 

Best Original Score

FUCK YEAH HANS ZIMMER SNUB. 12 Years had an awful score and I'm happy the Academy realized it. Gravity or Banks here for the win

 

Best Original Song

LET IT GO LET IT GOOOO

 

Best Sound

We all know Gravity's got this locked, right?

 

Best Visual Effects

Ew, Iron Man 3

 

Best Animated Short

Sweet, Get a Horse was nominated! Probably won't win tho

 

... and now to read the entire thread.

[John Marston]

Lee Daniels is speaking at my university on Saturday. I wonder if someone will ask him about his film getting no nominations lol

Does anyone get the feeling McConaghey is going to take best actor.

[Blankments]

Oh and to add to my above post (totes forgot about it)

 

Best Director

Eh, I was hoping for Greengrass to make it, but the noms are fine here IMO

[rockNrollaDIM]

Found em

 

 

[DAR]

Alone Yet Not Alone wtf is that

[Dementeleus]

Alone Yet Not Alone wtf is that

[Blankments]

OH FUCK 12 YEARS A SLAVE NOT IN CINEMATOGRAPHY?

 

PACIFIC RIM NOT IN VISUAL EFFECTS?

 

... I'll be awaiting our own nomination later this week

[SchumacherFTW]

I'm now on the Hanks was snubbed train. Saw Captain Phillips earlier, freaking loved it!

[Fancyarcher]

FUCK IRON MAN 3 and THE LONE RANGER. Pacific Rim missing out on a nom for best visual effects is a crime.

[Blankments]

I'm gonna have to say, I told you do on Thompson. All of you guys were so fucking sure she was locked and I said the other day that I wasn't so sure and I was right!

ALL HAIL GODDESS MERYL AND LEGEND DENCH!!!!

And when I saw Philomena nommed for BP, Iwas like omfg.

 

 

I blame your Satan Meryl on Emma's atrocious snub.

[Blankments]

Seriously, fuck MU. Only right call by the Academy. Letting it out of the nominated movies was great. The movie stinks.

 

Fuck DM2. It's a shame that shit got two noms, it's like three more than it deserved

[CoolioD1]

Fuck DM2. It's a shame that shit got two noms, it's like three more than it deserved

Happy is a pretty cool song though tbf.

[Blankments]

Jackass franchise - 1 Oscar nomination

Hunger Games - 0

 

Suck it.

 

that reminds me 

 

FUCK AT CATCHING FIRE MISSING MAKEUP AND COSTUMES

 

Yeah, just thinking about the ending of Captain Phillips and the fact that Hanks got snubbed after that made me realize I'm done with these fucking awards.

 

The Academy really doesn't deserve to be the most prestigious movie award judging from their stupidity.

 

I realized last year that the Critic's Choice are usually the only ones who get it right

[Jake Gittes]

I'm not even a big fan of Hanks and I get goosebumps just thinking of his final scene in Captain Phillips. It might be the best acting he's ever done, the snub is just embarrassing. 

[Blankments]

Cooper got nominated for BSA? I liked him in Hustle, but he was very lucky there.

Jeremy Renner was the good supporting actor in Hustle.

 

BTW, all the talk on how Hustle will probably win makes me sick.

 

So glad Jonah is a two-time Oscar nominee. lmao. And he actually deserves it this time!

 

jslgjfdgjldjgjf AND JIM CARREY STILL HASN'T BEEN NOMINATED (not that he's trying anymore but still)

[Blankments]

 

If Lupita is really that great she can do a couple more films and prove herself again later.

oh fuck off

 

In other news, I'm gonna start a full-fledged campaign to have Hanks win a BOFfy or whatever we call them. He's never won before, and his snub gives him good narrative! Same with Emma Thompson!

 

(oh what I'm kidding it's gonna go to Leo and J-Law)
