The Panda Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I don't know this might be an exception. I think it could be eligible for all of these Best Picture Best Director Best Actress in a leading role - Charlize Theron Best Supporting Actor - Nicholas Hoult Best Art Direction Best Visual Effects Best Original Score Best Make-up Best Sound Best Sound Editing Best Cinematography None of those are happening. Critical Success =/= Oscar Success Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahnamahna Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) None of those are happening. Critical Success =/= Oscar Success sadly... instead some by-the-numbers dramas and a flashy QT homage to some 60s/70s B-Movie will sweep the Oscar nods while inventive films such as Fury Road and Inside Out are left in the dust.

Blankments Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 The only high profile nom I could see it getting is Theron if it's a weak year. The movie is too weird otherwise. That said, cinematography nom NEEDS to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalo Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I could see all of the technical nods, Theron (Ala Weaver in Aliens), and possibly BP I can't imagine they'd give it BD or Screenplay sadly Really hope Theron gets nominated, she gave one of the best physical female performances I've ever seen.

Travod Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) Best case scenario I see for Mad Max in order of likelihood: *Awkward, forgot sound, both of which are pretty good bets.

Empire Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 If rave reviews keep up for Inside Out I think it has a shot to get nominated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridley Scott hasn't directed a good movie since like American Gangster..

Alpha Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 None of those are happening. Critical Success =/= Oscar Success Probably the most likely nom in one of the biggest categories is Best Director, considering how well respected George Miller is in the directing committee. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahnamahna Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Inside Out should have been the November 25th release. Having an Oscar season release date might help its chances at a BP nod in this competitive market (Up and TS3 benefited from 10 guaranteed nominees, and less competition) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 2009 and 2010 were pretty competitive years, and we still have no idea how competitive this year will be. At this point all we have is just a bunch of buzzy names and titles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 It would be awesome if Inside Out and The Good Dinosaur somehow both manage to get in, but I'm really worried about Pixar having two original movies in one year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have faith in Pixar! I'm sure they'll totally decimate competition at the box office while earning #dem (Kudos to Miss Mariah the Songbird Supreme Carey) rave reviews! PS: I understand your worries, I'm having the same worries about Moana and Zootopia for Disney! :C BUT, HAVE FAITH IN DISNEY AND PIXAR!

Alpha Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Inside Out should have been the November 25th release. Having an Oscar season release date might help its chances at a BP nod in this competitive market (Up and TS3 benefited from 10 guaranteed nominees, and less competition) Inside Out won't get a Best Picture nomination if the Academy still has the "between 5 and 10 nominees, 5% of all #1 votes" rule in place. Most likely I see it going for Animated Feature and Original Screenplay nods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Hunt Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Inside Out won't get a Best Picture nomination if the Academy still has the "between 5 and 10 nominees, 5% of all #1 votes" rule in place.
