riczhang Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 And yet, The King's Speech got best original screenplay. And, that film was based on lots of pre-existing material. The Academy has such fucked up rules at times. That play was never published though. Seidler originally wrote it as a play, so he just rewrote it as a screenplay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Toy Story 3 is adapted because it's a sequel. LEGO isn't. But according to the academy it is based off an existing material Legos. Plus there been direct to DVDS and video games of the Lego Universe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Gittes Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 I'm really starting to think Gone Girl can win Best Adapted if even the critics can't come up with any better competitors for it than Wild and the British Biopics #1 and #2. (Obviously PTA is out from the start). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted December 6, 2014 Author Share Posted December 6, 2014 I could see the Oscars playing out like those nominations and Ruffalo is the only nominaton for Foxcatcher, just because that category is weak and the other majors it's competing in are crowded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empire Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) I would love it so much if Tilds Swinton got nominated for best supporting actress for Snowpiercer at the Oscar. Her getting support at some of these so far is giving me some hope. Edited December 7, 2014 by Empire 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
