WrathOfHan Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 New predictions: 1. The Revenant 2. Joy 3. The Big Short 4, The Hateful Eight 5. Spotlight 6. Inside Out 7. The Martian 8. Steve Jobs 9. Mad Max: Fury Road 10. Bridge of Spies After Steve Jobs's box office performance, I don't know if it can sustain momentum. It'll at least get in for Fassbender, Winslet, and Screenplay, or maybe it could be another Gone Girl situation, who knows. I'm hopping on the Mad Max train with caution. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TStechnij Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Steve Jobs is too strong of a film to fall off tbh. It might not get director, but at the very least it will be getting nominated in Actor, Supporting Actress, Screenplay-- it'll get a a best picture nom and maybe an editing one. Besides, according to Anne Thompson, it is doing quite well with industry folk. http://www.indiewire.com/article/pod...eason-20151023 Edited October 24, 2015 by TStechnij Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 Well I did consider Carol but fat Harvey will obviously advertise it to death. (I still swear it looks like a thriller and Cate Blanchet seems to stalkerish from the trailer I saw) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halba Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) carol will get a nom. purely for the incredible RT and metacritic and blanchett/ mara are 'hot' in hollywood's eyes. brooklyn, room, beasts of no nation, son of saul are high RT movies that will get the snubs. in the heart of the sea sneaks in due to the box office/scale/scope of the thing(the moby dick book is incredible) the big short gets to top 5 based on latest screenings saying it is incredible. All star cast. inside out gets in due to sheer noms. the good dinosaur we will have to assess. Edited October 25, 2015 by Halba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, what if with your confidence in In The Heart of the Sea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 One hindrance with Sea is its box office-remember it comes out one week before Star Wars. Though I do hope it does well-that will really kill its chances of doing well. But one thing for it for sure is the director-the Academy loves Opie!

Jake Gittes Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 The Academy was nowhere to be found when Rush came out though. And that was one of his better films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 26, 2015 Author Share Posted October 26, 2015 That was more victim to a bad release date+bad box office. The Martian and Inside Out could also be the only 2 pre nom blockbusters this year. (remember The Revenant and Hateful 8 wont go wide till January) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 It honestly feels like In the Heart of the Sea has less buzz now than it did back when it was going to open in March. WB is thinking to themselves that the new year can't come fast enough for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 cant see martian getting a nom. inside out will be the sole blockbuster on the list this year. I can definitely see The Martian getting nominated, even if its chance of winning is like 5%. Same with Fury Road. The reviews are good enough to justify it and I'm sure the Academy wants to boost their viewership. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalo Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 http://www.rottentomatoes.com/top/bestofrt/?year=2015 I think Mad Max Will get nominated, most of the Oscar Bait films, seem to be underperforming and not really living up to expectations, call me crazy, but I think Inside Out and Force Awakens will get nominated too.

Impact Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 I do think Martian will pick up at least one major nom. Star Wars is very iffy-remember it is the 7th film, which remember the Academy isn't too kind to sequels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
