RealLyre Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) lmao Paramount slacking. do people still think Netflix won't win best picture this year, they'll have like 4 (maybe 5) bp nominations at this point and if they don't win this year idk when they will btw I had this Sorkin movie as my 2nd BP winner prediction incase Mank flops. so Netflix has my 2 top predictions Edited June 20, 2020 by RealLyre 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealLyre Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) so it says that the domestic rights will go to Netflix, which is a bit weird because it's usually the reverse. could it be because they are anticipating movie theaters in NA to stay dead in the fall awards season, while everywhere else is going to open and stay open as they handled the pandemic better? edit : nvm seems like Paramount never had international rights to this. so disregard.

Or the movie is a nonstarter and they figured streaming was better for it. We'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see. hmmm maybe, or Paramount don't want to spend more $$$ on this for awards campaign. they couldn't get Rocketman anywhere last year besides Song. the last time they got a bp nomination was in 2017.

Joel M Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 If the awards indeed happen, I feel it will be the type of year when something that isn't on the predictors radar before the fall will win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I'd have to ask Spaghetti, but my gut is BOFFYs will stay 2020 releases only. Maybe we'll reduce the number of nominees for the year (but this is a maybe and be polled for opinions first), kind of to early to be thinking about the logistics though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RealLyre Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 ammonite & true mothers are confirmed for TIFF. also read that Venice is staying in September. both festivals are expected to have much smaller than usual lineup. Oscar season will likely start in December instead of September as usual now so I think these fall festivals should've moved. as there will be 6-7 months between TIFF and the Oscar ceremony now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxOfficeFangrl Posted July 4, 2020 Share Posted July 4, 2020 (edited) How wild would it be if Disney finally gets their Best Picture Oscar because of Hamilton, a decidedly political work that had to be (slightly) censored just to avoid an R rating? If the first streaming service to win Best Picture isn't Netflix? A Best Actor nomination from a filmed play has happened before, so there's precedent. Hamilton was scheduled to be released in movie theaters but not until 2021. So far, AMPAS has only granted an exception to movies that were scheduled for theaters this year but got their releases canceled. It might end up not even being eligible for Oscars, but if it is... In a year with a full slate, I doubt Hamilton would have a chance...but it's not a normal year. And celebrities already absolutely loved Hamilton, even before...

filmlover Posted July 4, 2020 Author Share Posted July 4, 2020 If it qualifies, it wouldn't surprise me if Hamilton ends up a major player in this diluted year. Maybe the actual movie adaptation won't be so inevitable anymore since it would have a lot to live up to, though the box office potential would be too tempting since this isn't gonna have the chance to play in theaters aside from a Fathom Events thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since seeing the musical live, I have had doubts about it working as a movie in real world settings. It thrives in the stage environment but it's always a question with musical adaptation, if non-fans can roll with the unreality in same way. Who knows how hard Disney would campaign Hamilton this season? But it may not need much of that, and as unorthodox as a filmed stage show would be as an contender here, I can picture Oscar voters still being more comfortable with that winning vs. an animated movie. We'll know it's a threat when the hitpieces about its accuracy start getting recycled on the awards sites. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloneWars Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 If Tenet releases this year, I think it has the best shot. I don't know about Soul. An animated film still feels really far fetched, but anything is possible this year. I mean, hey, Kanye said he's running for President. For all we know, we have fallen into some weird alternate universe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
