CoolioD1 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 And young men are playing old men etcIt's basically a huge makeup effort. Here's a Featurette about it - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 So its the film that will win in one cat but wont be nominated elsewhere. Like Wolfman. (Which that was still funny to hear when it won "Wow The Wolfman is a Oscar winner!" Of course then it was followed by how sad it was that it had more Oscars then True Grit and Dragon) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 ...it could get nominated in another category like score or art direction or visual effects or something. Maybe it could even upset in the best picture category (I wish!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 The Hobbit is clearely the frontrunner in this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 This is a tough category. Only 3 spots and lots of contenders. I guess only lock is Cloud Atlas.Cloud AtlasLincolnHobbitalso, Hitchcock, Les Mis, and Anna Karenina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishstick Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Hobbit bombing in thsi category would be deserved because HFR exposed bad make-up. Lincoln should win it for DDl make-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Now this is just depressing. I can't bring myself to really care about the rest of the season now. Maybe next year if August: Osage County does well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 What? It's pretty damn rare that a movie like Cloud Atlas comes along and uses make up in such a huge vital way these days. Properly transforming some of the actors to something unrecognisable in some cases. But if they really think the crappy work on JoGoLev in LOOPER was better than that, then whatever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 If Cloud Atlas couldn't get into the final seven in a category many thought it could WIN, I'm doubting it gets any nominations at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Holy Motors also had much better makeup than most of the movies on that shortlist. (though I never really expected it to be nominated of course, but still, urrgggghh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I was going to say that they wouldn't nominate 2 latex based makeup films, and then I looked at last year's slate of nominees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Horrible short list for best makeup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieGuyKyle17 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) I usually don't care about the Make-up and that but come on Cloud Atlas deserves to win this award hands down and they don't even put it on the Short List?? That's BS just like how Community hasn't won any emmys yet...(sorry off-topic just making an comparison) Edited December 16, 2012 by MGK17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozymandias Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 How...the fuck...did Men in Black 3...get in...over Cloud Atlas....Although Cloud Atlas was one of my favorite movies of the year, it did have a few laugh out loud makeup jobs in it.

Jake Gittes Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) Although Cloud Atlas was one of my favorite movies of the year, it did have a few laugh out loud makeup jobs in it.I wasn't a fan of Bae Doona being made to look like an Englishwoman, but thought all the other make-up jobs were fine and, in many cases, outstanding. (Ben Whishaw playing a woman was bad make-up too, but I thought it was deliberate as it perfectly fit the tone of Timothy Cavendish's story). In any case, to me, Cloud Atlas unquestionably deserves all possible awards for its make-up and editing. Two of the most difficult and important aspects of the film and they pulled them off beautifully.
