And he hasn't burned bridges like Mickey Rourke But he's never been seen as an "Oscar" actor before now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that matters all that much anymore. It's just about the right movie and moment now.

BestPicturePlutoNash Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 5 minutes ago, Ethan Hunt said: A thought process that led to people predicting mother! And Noah for Oscars mother was incredibly divisive and a horror film. And why did anyone predict Noah when it had a March release? Aronfsky has still proven to be a big director who gets showy performances. Whale is a story about a dad reconnecting with his father. I wouldn’t anticipate it being as polarizing as the last two films. And that can be enough to throw Fraser in the mix as a contender.

filmlover Posted July 9, 2022 Author Share Posted July 9, 2022 The Whale sounds like Aronofsky returning to The Wrestler territory given that movie was also the indie follow up to a studio dud. Fraser has a very good comeback narrative that could very well lead to his first nomination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingdong Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Everything Everywhere All At Once is lock for Best Picture nom, no? Also Michelle Yeoh NEEDS to get that Oscar. If Stone, JLaw and Bullock snagged it with those performances, Yeoh deserves it 100 times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BestPicturePlutoNash Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Empire of Light sounds very mediocre from what I gather. Real messy and soapy. Although it's Searchlight bait, I'm thinking it'll miss the mark. Also hearing some inconsistent word about She Said, kinda confirming what I assumed about it.
