4815162342 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Come on, it's fun! I'm still holding off because a couple films are still without distributors and are hoping for a good festival showing to get a release date. The big one is Malick's To the Wonder, which is showing at Venice but so far has had several studios view it and reluctant to bite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focus might go for it as well, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 I can't wait for that one. I really, really hope it arrives this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMan89 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Wait, wait, who the hell has said that the Avengers could be nominated? LMFAO. :rofl: :rofl:It has a better shot than DH2 did last year. #trufax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 It has a better shot than DH2 did last year. #trufax No. I'm not saying that because I think DH2's reception was any better, but DH2 came from a weaker year than this one is shaping up to be. It likely got a few #1 votes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 (edited) No. I'm not saying that because I think DH2's reception was any better, but DH2 came from a weaker year than this one is shaping up to be. It likely got a few #1 votes.True last year was extremely weak, but the Academy was never gonna nominate DH2. I can guarantee you they had 3-5 other films lined up to take its spot before they would've picked it. At the very least I think TA is in that same #12-15 range DH2 was likely in last year, probably a little higher.

Kvikk Lunsj Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 TDKR or TA are not going to get nominated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZattMurdock Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I really hope Avengers can get nominated.Come on-star the campaign!(Hey Brave is more liked then Loud and Close. Then again so is: Dictator, John Carter, Mirror, Mirror, Woman in Black....)I do too. No movie this year deserves more so far. I don't think it will win, but a nomination I think that can end up happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lab276 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Yeah, TA is the opposite movie to what normally gets nominated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 TA is a fun film but the academy does go for those films. The academy is an old group. That why the Hobbit has advantage it is a classic book which they read. I am guess most in the academy voting people have even seen Avengers yet or any of the Marvel films.

Webslinger Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I would love to see Moonrise Kingdom nominated for Best Picture (if it's not my favorite movie of the year to date, it's darn close). However, Wes Anderson is an acquired taste (as in one that everyone should acquire, but I digress ) and his distinctive style is all over the film, so the fact that they haven't already embraced his work is a somewhat troubling sign as far as the film's awards prospects are concerned.

Kvikk Lunsj Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Moonrise Kingdom was a disappointed such a mediocre film and that is putting it nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Gittes Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Well, The Royal Tenenbaums was nominated for Screenplay and FMF for Animated Film, so considering the overwhelmingly positive critical reception and strong box-office gross of Moonrise Kingdom, if there was ever a perfect time for the Oscars to embrace Anderson with a BP nom, it's now. Personally I think it could and should be a contender for Picture, Original Screenplay, Cinematography and Production Design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
