Impact Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Sent-toughest to rank was supporting actor. (Though I am still pulling for a Hardy win!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Spark takes the award for most nominations without a BP nomination.However, if we used the old Oscar rules it would only have 5 nominations, since 4 of its nominations came from the new Voice Actor categories. Under the old rules, Citizen Hughes would be the most nominated non-BP film. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impact Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Yep-during the 5 nom era only 2 films had 2 nominations that were nominated for BP. Four Weddings and don't remember the other one.While The Bad and the Beautiful won 5 Oscars and was not nominated for BP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Alfred Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Aren't we doing documentary? We have 3 docs aren't we? I know that we can't do foreign as there aren't 3 films, can I consider Arvika as a foreign film winner then? It sucks not to get an award, just because there's no competition lol I'll tend to write a foreign film every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
