Whoever she is she was awful and made the show bad and ruined moments of some of these people's careers who may never get nominated again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancyarcher Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Those last minute Phantom Thread nominations were kinda great. Thanks for being unpredictable on something for a change academy. Love The Shape of Water love too. 13 nominations, whoa! 1 minute ago, Hatebox said: Well done Jordan Peele, hugely deserved. Was Gerwig a given or a surprise? No, Gerwig was expected. In fact some people were predicting Lady Bird for best picture last month, largely because of the narrative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 I legit can't stop laughing over that Denzel nom. Even with the last minute Franco controversy, were they really that scared of another #OscarsSoWhite backlash that they had to nominate him for that turd? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shape of Water will probably win best picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BardCrank Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 2 minutes ago, Valonqar said: Maybe not. It was never going to win BD. GDT will waltz his way to victory so all 3 Amigos will have Oscars. BD is still likely 3B's with TSOW next in line but at this point anything can happen. Get Out did really well with noms. LB too. So we better have a race than all known already (acting categories are sealed and delivered as is BD). Get out and lady bird did exactly as predicted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMPAS will never stop nominated middlebrow movies. There will always be at least one. At least they didn't add Victoria and Abdul to the list.

WrathOfHan Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 (edited) Yeah, SOW has this locked up IMO. We already know 3B is divisive, but missing a directing nom here will sure as fuck hurt it in preferential voting Edited January 23, 2018 by WrathOfHan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kraken Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 3 minutes ago, BoxOfficeZ said: Actually, couldn't they have picked 10 movies for Best Picture? 9 seems oddly specific. It's not set. It's any number between 5 and 10, depending on the amount of movies surpassing a percentage of the votes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 3 billboards isn't an argo situation imo. people actually cared about ben affleck getting snubbed and he was winning everywhere else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPink Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Considering how the nominations went, there may yet be a few surprises in the actual telecast so that should be fun 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

narniadis Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Also yall griping about Boss Baby, as far as big production houses go it was second only to coco among the animated films I saw in 17.

Ithil Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 The Post sure got ignored. That BP nom is entirely perfunctory. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 so maybe we can call the new voting system on animated films dodgy. but it wasn't an especially strong year for the medium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
