titanic2187 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Got a feeling this year the Oscar halo effect would be stronger. Last year the bump was terrible (terrible sub-300 PTA) outside of one surprise bump like EEAAO. Poor Things Searchlight Pictures 2,300 1,410 +890 American Fiction Amazon Studios 1,702 850 +852 The Holdovers Focus Features 1,267 127 +1,140 Oppenheimer Universal Pictures 1,262 254 +1,008 Killers of the Flower Moon Paramount Pictures 941 16 +925 As for A24 titles, Past Lives also coming back to 320 theaters, Zone of interest expanded to 300+. Anatomy of Fall come back to 350 theaters. No number for Barbie. The bump is irrelevant for Maestro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMan89 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 9 hours ago, eeetooki said: I guarantee you the majority of Barbie fans out there haven't watched Greta's previous works lol I am not saying she doesn't have a fanbase but most of those complaining probably only watched one or two movies this year and have no idea how the academy works. I mean isn’t that just implied by one of the highest grossing movies of all time $1.4b Barbie vs 250m combined gross of her other 4 films or whatever? Lol. Again, of course more people will be mad at such big snubs for such a massive movie. Opp ticks all the Acadmey boxes, had the Nolan was robbed multiple times narrative (which is true), Nolan’s ever rabid fanbase, and was massive as well. Like I said, backlash will be even worse if it loses the cats its frontrunner in. I can guarantee a lot of casuals who don’t normally pay attention definitely think Nolan is “owed” those awards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even as a Nolan fan I am prepping myself not to have my hopes up high too much so I don't get disappointed. The academy always have surprises, who knows if the voters will love Oppenheimer. And if a big chunk of the academy members behave like this anonymous ballot: https://insessionfilm.com/op-ed-anonymous-oscar-ballot-1-an-insession-film-exclusive/ Then we are in for a disappointment. I am definitely getting off internet if that happens lol I am guessing this year's Oscars view numbers are going to be really great with the Barbieheimer hype. Twitter will probably explode if something surprising happens. Edited January 26 by eeetooki add 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Anatomy of a Fall seems to have a lot of Academy support based on the noms. Possible they also take the Gerwig backlash and run with awarding the sole woman in the cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedorito Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Unless it drops the ball, Beyond the Spiderverse might be able to squeeze into Best Picture with the momentum of the finale. Whenever it comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 I saw Holdovers today and I am not sure how Giamatti is going to beat Murphy. I feel Murphy has to win this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel Murphy has to win this one. Murphy is my choice too, but given the praise Giamatti has received I can see why he’s seen as the main competitor. He also has the “overdue for an Oscar” angle that could help him too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. But narratives are a thing...and he's trying very hard to campaign, so who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 I saw American Fiction this afternoon and aside from Domingo (only because I haven't seen Rustin but he's always great so I'm sure it's a worthy performance) this is a pretty strong Actor lineup made up entirely of faves of mine. Also: I'm now three episodes into The Curse. A sign that a Nolan/Stone collaboration is his next movie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giammati just likes making sure he's photographed getting a burger after winning at an awards show, because he's such regular guy! 15 hours ago, filmlover said: Also: I'm now three episodes into The Curse. A sign that a Nolan/Stone collaboration is his next movie? I remember him saying how much he liked La La Land a few years back. But Stone seems to have a lot of creative control in her projects lately, plus Nolan's reputation for writing his female characters is not the best. Maybe his next movie will be to prove those critics wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted January 31 Author Share Posted January 31 Not entirely related but: Oscars gonna get Natasha Bedingfield to open the show with "Unwritten" to try and capitalize on its newfound popularity via Anyone But You aren't they.
