[Avatree]

Surprised to see lack of Gone Girl for Adapted Screenplay.

 

Also thought Birdman would get nominated for Editing.

 

Other than that, there's not much surprise.

This is not a tragedy. Congrats to incredible crew and cast of The Lego Movie, who made a classic.

 

PREACH

Congrats to "Everything is Awesome" though currently the title of the song doesn't seem especially accurate!

 

Amen, my good sir, amen

[Jandrew]

Gone Girl snubs. Gone Girl snubs, everwhere...

[CoolioD1]

This is gonna be a lowwwww rated oscar broadcast. nph won't bring the viewers like other hosts have. Not really any audience favorites among the nominees. I guess Sniper is about to make lots of money.

[Dementeleus]

BIRDMAN didn't deserve an editing nod.

[Blankments]

I'm not sure he would've nominated LEGO either.

[BoxOfficeZ]

At least LEGO got a nomination for Best original Song. 

[Empire]

I am sad neither Force Majeure or Two Days, One Night got nominated for best foreign film.

[riczhang]

Ric was right about Gone Girl not getting nominated.

 

I was going off a gut feeling that the Academy wouldn't go for something that messed up. 

 

but mostly cus I hated the movie and it'd annoy Sasha

pretty shoking in a bad way

[Hatebox]

This is gonna be a lowwwww rated oscar broadcast.

 

Yup. It may even break the record.

[Alpha]

The great thing is now "Everything is Awesome" will definitely win Best Original Song, because the Academy has to make up for snubbing LEGO.

[Avatree]

BIRDMAN didn't deserve an editing nod.

I thought it was edited to make it look like one take? Which is kinda cool and had people talking, I figured the gimmick would get it a nomination.

[ShouldIBeHere]

Gone Girl and Nightcrawler both deserved more.

Isn't sniper tracking to open to 50 million or something?

 

BIRDMAN didn't deserve an editing nod.

Deserving has nothing to do it with It's still a snub. 

 

I am sad neither Force Majeure or Two Days, One Night got nominated for best foreign film.

2D1N didn't even get a shortlist

[CJohn]

Jake should have been nominated for best Actor.

[CoolioD1]

Honestly the only movie I could see beating Boyhood now is Imitation Game, which got all the right noms. but even that feels like a distant second.

Yeah, the box office performances of these movies are anemic. Imitation Game and likely Sniper will be the only two to make much of a dent.

Selma will win. they'll wanna give it a win.
