It's weird that Bong feels more likely to get a screenplay nom with this movie than win foreign language film. It's crazy that South Korea still hasn't won that category after having such a big impact in world cinema during the last 20 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel M Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 They 've been in golden age since at least the early 00s. Bong, Park Chan Wook and Kim Jee Won have been the figureheads that broke through to western audiences but I 've seen many other good Korean movies in the last 20 years in many different genres. I'm sure they also produce a lot of jank every year but who doesn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avi Saks Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 My current predicted 10 are Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Little Women Ford v Ferrari The Irishman The Report Harriet Us A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood Rocketman Goldfinch 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 (edited) How's EG nomination looking? I do expect AMPAS to think they awarded Marvel and SH genre last year with BP's picture nom and Costume/Score/Song wins but you never know. something has to take the blockbuster spot and PGA is going to nominate it as their Top 10.

CoolioD1 Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 meh won't happen. this is more like a force awakens/mission impossible type deal where people talked about how they could maybe get nominated for best picture for like a week before coming to their senses. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post-Cannes viewpoint: I don't think that prospect is looking good to be honest. Many of the prestige films and independent films we've seen are bringing their A-game (The Lighthouse, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, A Hidden Life, The Farewell, The Report), and many of the Oscar/independent films we haven't seen seem like all of their pieces are coming together very quickly. Yes, Black Panther was able to get nominated, but part of the reason was how weak the competition turned out to be. Endgame may be the biggest blockbuster of the year, but a lot of Oscar voters will want to vote for the excellent and meaningful Oscar/independent films instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Good Liar could sneak in there if it's good. Just Mercy's scheduled for January 2020, and I've nothing about plans for a limited release before then.

WrathOfHan Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 It'd be pretty insane if Actor had two double noms this year. I doubt it will happen because Sony will probably push Pitt into Supporting, but if they keep him lead.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Just Mercy seems to be a big award player considering its topic. I would be very happy if Brie Larson snatch another nomination this year. This way she can balance both types of role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early reactions are more than great Eh. The Lion King would set a precedent that Hollywood can get rewarded for making these remakes. But then again, a nomination for Little Women would do the same on a smaller scale. But yeah. There's so many Oscar films with huge potential from the bigger studios that I'm worried about how the independent films are going to be able to factor into the race, if they'll be able to factor in at all. Maybe The Lighthouse gets nominations as an undeniable masterpiece. Maybe Antonio Banderas gets that acting nomination for Pain & Glory, or maybe Alfre Woodard gets her first nomination in three decades for Clemency. But all these studio films are certainly proving to be a challenge. And that makes this year exciting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
