DAR Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 That's the first time I've seen Ides of March pop up. The rest seem to be the usual suspects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 I thought Harry Potter would be in there instead of Ides. The first Potter was nominated in a field of five. But that's a really cool surprise to see Ides in there!! Glad to know it's not out of the race yet.And lol, another nomination for Cars 2...

baumer Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Why is Cars here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share Posted January 3, 2012 Because it's Pixar and the voters are being lazy. Probably didn't see enough animated films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Ides of March is showing up too much, otherwise no surprises. DH2 continues its snub run, even Star Trek was nominated here. Bridesmaids has SAG, PGA and Globe nominations... WGA coming up this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnY Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) Why Bridesmaids when they could've nominated The Tree of Life instead? Edited January 3, 2012 by JohnnY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH2 continues its snub run, even Star Trek was nominated here. .Even Sorcerer's Stone was nominated. Lol. And what do you mean Ides is showing up too much? It's easily the best movie out if those nominees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Why Bridesmaids when they could've nominated The Tree of Life instead? Because Tree of Life is a turd...not much better than New Years Eve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I'm actually really disappointed with DH2's snub. It's the first time where I feel actual disappointment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Why is Cars here? Because these idiots are lazy and worship the ground Pixar walks on. Don't be surprised if it wins Best Animated Feature by default. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 I would fucking love to see Bridesmaids sneak in for Best Picture. Can you imagine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishstick Posted January 3, 2012 Share Posted January 3, 2012 Total nail in the coffin for HP while DT have just got the much needed boost for $100 mio crawl. It`s in. Yuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuck.You mean it's in for Best Picture? I would consider it the least likely of those ten films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 And what do you mean Ides is showing up too much? It's easily the best movie out if those nominees.I haven't seen The Artist or War Horse, but IMO Ides is weaker than any of those other selections. Yes, even The Help.

RichWS Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I remember when people were talking about Star Trek for Best Picture after it made the PGA list. Bridesmaids won't get in. If there will still 10 guaranteed nominees, then we could talk. Not when you're dealing with No. 1 on people's ballots. I don't see Bridesmaids getting too many of those (and I loved the movie).

Tree of Life and Drive though have a good choice at a nomination. The 5% rule is the most important factor to think about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
