It needs to have a lot going in its favor. Reveal hidden contents inb4 Blanks likes this two years from now this sounds way more oscary than what he's been doing. there's a plot about a classical movie star, or something!

filmlover Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 The first images from Wonderstruck were released the other day and I'm intrigued. Is it confirmed it's part black and white? Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) right. that just seems like something the academy will jerk to hard. so did la la land tbf and that didn't go all the way. still, even if he don't win i think this will be the film that finally gets haynes into major academy recognition like grand budapest did broke Anderson through.

The Disaster Artist 2. Call Me by Your Name 3. Lean on Pete 4. Last Flag Flying 5. Blade Runner 2049 Alt: The Glass Castle Good Christ, Adapted Screenplay is barren this year. All the top BP contenders are original, AND there are creative films like GO, Sacred Deer, and Three Billboards that the writing branch normally goes for. Goddamn. The Disaster Artist is probably A24's #1. It has an excellent release date and is going wide before Christmas. Sacred Deer is going to be too niche, and Lean on Pete doesn't have much buzz right now.

That could happen. And based on buzz alone Call Me by Your Name would be considered a more than worthy winner I think. Especially if they remember that they never gave James Ivory an Oscar back in the day and he's turning 90 next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't trust STX to handle Molly's Game well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the movie's good enough they'll notice, regardless of the distributor I think. Edited May 18, 2017 by Jake Gittes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Can't really say for sure how good the race for a category is until the fall festival circuit. I will say Sundance seems to have produced a healthy list of contenders this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call Me by Your Name is really the only thing from Sundance that has a really great shot this year at becoming a major contender (and not just because the studio's holding onto it until the end of the year). The Big Sick's only shot is a lone Original Screenplay nom. Everything else will be either too small or too under the radar to really catch fire.

Cmasterclay Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Wonderstruck is getting good enough reviews and all but nothing that screams Best Picture winner, and I agreed with Coolio that it had a good shot to win. At this point reviews look ehhhh for a nomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I still think it's too soon to discount it for nominations but yeah it's not gonna win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That One Girl Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 I think noms will be... Get Out PTA Flick Suburbicon Disaster Artist Blade Runner 2049 Darkest Hour The Post The Current War Call Me by Your Name Detroit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 If Wonderstruck was by a more Oscar-friendly director, I'd say Wonderstruck would maybe still be in contention for a nomination, but there's just way too many contenders for a Todd Haynes film with mixed reception to stand out.

SLAM! Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Okja is getting good enough reviews for a film of its type. But do you think a Netflix film such as Okja can build momentum towards a Best Picture nomination? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 nah. Mudbound or bust for Netflix this year i think. maybe the baumbach movie could get a screenplay nod if it's great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Okja doesn't have the reception or release date to be a BP nominee anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
