kowhite Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 My second favorite thing about this site after posting about movies is...looking forward to The Futurist's posts so I can stare at that Jlaw gif. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noggod4me Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 AMERICAN HUSTLE will now go wide Dec 18th, instead of Dec 25th. I'm glad they moved it. It's a win-win for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Jennifer Lawrence on American Hustle"It was fantastic and incredible. I would work on anything with David. He reminds me of why I love this job. When I took the part in American Hustle I had the option of going on vacation for three weeks or shooting this movie. Part of me didn’t want to do it because I knew I really needed to take a breather, but I couldn’t not work with David, so I said yes. And I realized it was much better than a vacation. He’s like adrenaline for creativity. He’s like food for any creative process. Just the way he works is already a great experience. I love every moment I’m on his sets."

noggod4me Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) http://www.deadline.com/2013/11/deadline-oscars-contenders-2013-captain-phillips-american-hustle-before-midnight-despicable-me-2/ Anyone who’s been waiting for David O. Russell’s follow-up to last year’s Oscar-nominated Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle (also for for Sony), will be happy to know the film was locked down today. This is per one of the film’s producers, Richard Suckle, who was on hand to discuss the genesis of the film which is loosely based on the ABSCAM scandals of the 1970s. One of his funnier reveals was that star Bradley Cooper — not wanting to perm his hair for the film — spent hours in hair and makeup every day getting it curled. Co-star Christian Bale, on the other hand, gained 40 lbs. for his role and shaved the crown of his head to perfect his character’s outlandish comb over.

ddddeeee Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 A respected user on the Movie Awards IMDB page (is that a paradox?) has seen the movie and said it's underwhelming. Cooper and Lawrence are the standouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLK Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I won't be surprised if the movie is underwhelming with only JLaw and BCoop getting nominations. I have never believed that Amy Adams has much of chance in a year like this and the Best Actor field is too crowded for Bale, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Actress and Supporting Actor are busy too, J-Law seems like the only acting option right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noggod4me Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 When I think about the nominations for this, I always think it will depend on how embraced the movie will be by the Academy. If it's as embraced as SLP or TF, Bale and Adams can still be nominated even if their categories are the most packed. The expectations for this movie is ridiculously high though so it's bound to disappoint some. Also, a behind-the-scenes pic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never believed that Amy Adams has much of chance in a year like this and the Best Actor field is too crowded for Bale, IMO. Yeah I would love to see Bale, but the unexpected splash of Robert Redford really put a dent in those chances. McConaughey too, to a lesser extent.

noggod4me Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I think Ejiofor is the one to beat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newknicksfan Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I still think Bale has a good shot at being nominated for either this or Out of the Furnace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacquelinejane Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 To give some context to the IMDB poster: they are reliable and a SAG member, however they admittedly aren't a big fan of DOR (as a person and as a filmmaker), so consider that when reading their thoughts. They are predicting JLaw for a nomination, so I'm excited about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
