But how? Has there been screeners? This isn't the type of movie that usually wins. It seems people are just enchanted by the trailers. 

Yeah, and it's been said that it won't be in contention for the win. If Billy Lynn or Silence disappoints it becomes in contention IMO.

Everyone does. Or should. 

 

If there are people say they like him, it means they tolerate him. 

Birdman's great, can't speak for the rest of his filmography.

I have no feelings towards him either way (he's just made some movies that I liked a lot). What does that say about me?

You haven't searched your feelings deep enough.

Yeah I actually remember someone posting about a screener awhile ago and tweet reactions about it on Imdb and they said maybe Emma will get a nomination and the globes will love it but it probably won't be a major Oscar contender.

The field is really weak this year so I don't see how it misses a nomination. If Live by Night doesn't release we'll be down to six nominees IMO (Arrival, Billy Lynn, Fences, La La Land, Manchester, Silence). People are still clutching to Loving but it's simply not a movie the Academy will go for, just ask Weinstein how Carol did.

I think Live by Night is simply a January 2017 release. They're not expecting it to compete for awards either way. Which doesn't seem like the best sign for it.

Didn't Nile say he's heard good things about LBN?

Bleed for This, Arrival, and Allied could be potential nominees too.

The subject matter of Loving seems like something the Academy would like. I've heard some people didn't like Jeff Nichols overly subtle approach though. 

 

I'm not saying this definitely won't  get nominated but I'm surprised by declarations it's a front runner to win. The tweet reactions I remember didn't seem to indicate that at all.

Miles Teller getting an acting nomination would probably end BOT.

[CoolioD1]

it premieres at festivals in just over a week. i think imma wait until then before saying it will or won't win this or that.

I think people thought Birth of a Nation might win, and I doubt it is in the running any more.

 

I like Emma Stone.  I didn't like this trailer as much as the first one, but I like it.  It may be time for me to stop watching trailers, to avoid spoilers, since I know I am going to see it, in any event.

And that's why I don't see the Academy nominating it for BP.

Until Silence has a date, I'm not putting it on any contention list.

It's definitely coming out this year. Scorsese himself confirmed it and he's probably the reason they haven't dated it yet (since they're probably allowing to take his time after Wolf of Wall Street barely made it to 2013).

When it's dated, it's dated.
