But you're also right because, with that early October release date, they're missing a chance to get the buzz train rolling a little earlier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted September 1, 2022 Author Share Posted September 1, 2022 Blanchett is getting Blue Jasmine-level raves for TAR. This is already exciting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BestPicturePlutoNash Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Cate Blanchett Viola Davis Margot Robbie Michelle Williams Michelle Yeoh ALT: Naomi Ackie- big biopic holiday release but will it breakout enough Olivia Colman- the movie is floppy and there's no incentive to nominate her once again so recently Danielle Deadwyler- the performance will be raved but the buzz is low I think Davis is the least likely, but she's a majorly respected thespian with an audience fave and big performance. Williams should have gone Supporting, but still won't miss. The rest are good to go (assuming Babylon isn't a flop which I don't believe it will be) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted October 13, 2022 Author Share Posted October 13, 2022 The raves for Deadwyler in Till are god-tier, to the point where I think she's safely in now (SAG should be an easy nomination for her). Even if the film gets in nowhere else she's likely good for a lone nomination in the end ala Ruth Negga. Confident in this lineup now: Cate Blanchett, TAR Danielle Deadwyler, Till Margot Robbie, Babylon Michelle Williams, The Fabelmans Michelle Yeoh, Everything Everywhere All at Once With Ackie and Davis on the outside looking in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to argue against that line up, and honestly....it's a year where you could make a case for ANY of them winning. Some are stronger than others, sure, but it feels like a really strong line-up this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted December 29, 2022 Author Share Posted December 29, 2022 With Babylon sputtering and the Whitney biopic going nowhere I'm thinking Davis is safely in now, especially when she'll likely show up at SAG. Latest predictions: Cate Blanchett, TAR Viola Davis, The Woman King Danielle Deadwyler, Till Michelle Williams, The Fabelmans Michelle Yeoh, Everything Everywhere All at Once 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxOfficeFangrl Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Michelle Williams hasn't actually watched The Fabelmans, but she felt like a lead when she was filming: BRB, time traveling to run Adrien Brody's Best Actor campaign for The Thin Red Line...

BoxOfficeFangrl Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Anyone else following the last minute Andrea Riseborough push? Quote Many more have also posted about it on social media including Aniston (“Beautiful”), Susan Sarandon (“beautiful, lil gem of a film”), Helen Hunt (“If you’re out there voting for performances, don’t do it till you see Andrea Riseborough”), Zooey Deschanel (“amazing movie”), Melanie Lynskey (“even for her this is next level”), Mira Sorvino (“absolutely stunning, wrenching and beautiful”), Constance Zimmer (“you’ll never forget this performance”), Rosie O’Donnell (“devastatingly beautiful film”), Minnie Driver (“run don’t walk”), Alan Cumming (“an insanely raw and beautiful performance”) Daphne Zuniga (“incredible performance”), Tan France, Jenny McCarthy and many more. Frances Fisher, Rosanna Arquette, Debra Winger, Patricia Clarkson and Howard Stern are also part of the chorus of supporters. A lot of the posts have very similar wording and just appeared in the last few days: Was there only money to campaign during Oscar nomination voting? Does Riseborough's agent have dirt on...everyone, and that's why they've posted the same gushing blurbs? Did Hollywood see the potential Best Actress lineup featuring so many women of color and say, "Not on our watch!" What is going on?

Did Hollywood see the potential Best Actress lineup featuring so many women of color and say, "Not on our watch!" What is going on? No, I've been following this too. I feel like Aniston herself tried this same self-made campaign with Cake back in 2014-2015 but even that was less under-the-radar than To Leslie is (Aniston still managed some major noms for it only to be snubbed in the end). The race is is pretty shaky after Yeoh and Blanchett, with de Armas (praised performance in a panned movie) and Davis (Woman King is clearly weak overall) appearing vulnerable and I assume Williams will still make it in the end due to the strength of her movie. That said, Andrea Riseborough crashing the Best Actress category at the last minute with a tiny movie from a nothing distributor to a nomination out of nowhere is precisely the kind of awards season insanity I live for. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cake, LOL, but even that didn't come out of no where during nomination voting week. We've all seen stars do SM posts about contenders they like, but usually it's a bit less manufactured? Or maybe the cult-like nature of the praise is part of the campaign. It's so weird, very sloppy for a PR push. If Deadwyler misses and Riseborough makes it in...not that Oscar voters care about poor optics, but Film Twitter and the media will be happy to remind them...

The most shameless and actually refreshing campaign. It's nice when actors clearly tell us they want an Oscar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's nice when actors clearly tell us they want an Oscar Consider was so strange, since IIRC, Melissa Leo was already the frontrunner when those ads appeared. It was like she got in her feelings that a teenager was serious competition in her category, so she responded with messy interviews and Glamour Shots. Pundits at the time actually wondered if her overt thirst was going to ruin her chances at winning. But this Riseborough thing is different than an actor hyping themselves Dozens of actors are regurgitating the same copypasta out of no where for a movie that got released last October. Frances Fisher is literally in the IG comments posting the math of how many votes Andrea needs to make the Top 5. WTH? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 Melissa Leo's "Consider" campaign is iconic lmao. Awards season was fun that year. Also special is Jennifer Tilly's story about how she had to fund her own Oscar campaign (a gamble that ended up paying off since she was nominated). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
