Out of likes bro, but you're right I'm also probably gonna bow out of the forums on Oscar night itself. I know I get a bit too into these things for the forums and last year I attempted (and kinda failed at it haha) to take a break afterwards. So yeah, I'll make some predicts here and there, be upset over Stallone not getting nominated (since that's really the only race I care about besides if IO got snubbed for Animated) tomorrow, and leave that there. Then again, that's a probably. So you guys might be stuck with me still. Then again, I split my time with a different board during the Globes so probably again there tl;dr - I'm narcissistic enough to believe you guys care about a dissertation on my viewing/posting habits during Oscar season 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I'm not sure what It'd take for the Oscars to get me to meltdown, Blanks style. Maybe if Tomorrowland or In the Heart of the Sea get a nom (anywhere), that might make me flip some tables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 If 50 Shades gets nominated for song I know people will be going "how did a crappy movie get nominated for anything!" (it was like when Norbit got nominated for makeup, people seem to think that it was nominated for picture or something with the dumb comments they made) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 What would be more shocking: Big Short having no nominations or Big Short having 10 nominations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(it was like when Norbit got nominated for makeup, people seem to think that it was nominated for picture or something with the dumb comments they made) I get annoyed when I see comments about how a crappy movie got a nomination for say Make Up or Visual Effects or Sound. Yes, it's a crappy movie, but even some crappy movies have some very well-done aspects about them. You're sound noms are only nominating (or should only be nominating) based on sound quality, so if say, Transformers, has the best sound, it deserves the nomination. Does that mean Transformers got an Oscar nomination and one of your other favorites, like Hunger Games, didn't? Yes, and get over it. Sorry for the rant, but I know those inevitable twitter comments are coming, because there's going to be at least one crappy movie that gets a nomination somewhere where it may have actually deserved it.

Impact Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Starship Troopers and Death Becomes Her were both nominated for visuals, with Death Becomes Her winning even! The film Restoration won art direction and costumes in 1995, it was a very little known film that apparently was panned but was praised big time for those 2 aspects. Girl Interrupted was rotten and won supporting actress! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancyarcher Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) A film having poor or mixed reviews doesn't stop it from being a potential Oscar nominee, in any technical or non main categories. That's just how it works. Bad films can still have good qualities about them. Edited January 14, 2016 by Daniel Dylan Davis 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I'll stunned if the Academy gives Fifty Shades of Grey any kind of recognition lol. Like, they ain't touching it with a 10 foot pole even in the Song category. I'm reminded of the Burlesque song where it was written by multiple time nominee Diane Warren and was sung in the film by Oscar-winning actress Cher and even won the Golden Globe, and yet it missed the nomination with the most likely explanation being that they didn't want to nominate the movie the song was associated with. Expect a repeat of that here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinaTakla Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 WOW I got 19/20 acting nominees right!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I actually really liked most of the nominations this year (I didn't think fury road was all that amazing but I digress). Sure, could they have included inside out in BP nominees and also maybe carol (expand the number to 10)? Sure, but I won't call it a snub because neither inside out not carol would have won. The only SNUB this year was Steve Carrel for Big Short. I would have thought it a 2-way race between him and dicaprio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 If there were 5 noms they would of been: Big Short, Mad Max, The Martian, Revenant and Spotlight. (Actually pretty easy to figure out that this year) I was right about Compton btw! I added that at the last moment since so many were saying it was a lock.
