BK007 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Dark Knight Rises should win BP. My alternate would be Argo or Lincoln. Maybe SLP, idk.I think Abraham Lincoln should win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I find it concerning both Django and Hobbit are lifting embargos tomorrow yet till nothing from les mis but some somewhat awkward clips.We'll find out tomorrow when NYFCC votes. And, embargo's up soon enough, it's not like we haven't already heard about the movie like Dragon Tattoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webslinger Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I find it concerning both Django and Hobbit are lifting embargos tomorrow yet till nothing from les mis but some somewhat awkward clips.Reactions from Les Miserables have popped up around the web, and they're generally really, really positive. I wouldn't be concerned about the film just because official reviews haven't run yet.I'll be interested to see how The Hobbit does in its initial reception. I'm still really excited for the movie, but I'm not feeling it as a major awards contender.I don't think Django is going to make much noise either, but we'll see. I don't think the Christmas release was a good idea as far as awards prospects are concerned because Tarantino's work is so odd that it usually requires more time to be processed on a widespread level. I think Basterds benefited greatly from being released in August and having time to build up its stature; it's such a bizarre movie that I'm not sure it would have struck as strongly in awards season if it had been released at the end of the year.

I'm still really excited for the movie, but I'm not feeling it as a major awards contender.Yeah, I think that Fishnets something like "Good not Great" when I mentioned that the word is that the movie is good and not a mess. It'll need LOTR level fanaticism to get this a BP nomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stingray Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I don't see Les Mis winning. I say its a battle between Lincoln and ZD30, with Lincoln winning in the end. Argo is a potential upset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLK Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I think Les Miz has a better shot at taking down Lincoln than ZDT. I don't see ZDT winning either GG or BAFTA while Les Miz has a good shot at both these awards. Lincoln is going to stay at the very top during the entire awards season (Spielberg, DDL, Box Office, history etc.) and only a movie with momentum will be able to beat it. Frankly, I won't be surprised if movies like SLP and ZDT are also-rans and a movie like Life Of Pi starts surgingby the time new year begins.

The Stingray Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Which is better - Looper or Cloud Atlas?Have seen Looper. Thought it was pretty good, definitely not great.Have not yet seen CA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickvD Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Which is better - Looper or Cloud Atlas?Have seen Looper. Thought it was pretty good, definitely not great.Have not yet seen CA.I enjoyed Cloud Atlas mostly for its ambition and brilliant editing. But it's deeply flawed in terms of tone and writing.

fishstick Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Which is better - Looper or Cloud Atlas?Have seen Looper. Thought it was pretty good, definitely not great.Have not yet seen CA.Both fucked up by trying too much. It`s just that having more than 1 movie in 1 movie isn`t the best idea. That said, I liked CA more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
