85th Academy Awards (24/2/13) Official Thread- TONIGHT!! NOMINEES IN THE FIRST POST

[JohnnY]

I hope at least we have a true competition between two nominees. Last year The Artist had like... 95% chances of winning. And the same goes for The King's Speech in the year before. I hope Lincoln don't swap all the guild awards.

And we all know how that turned out, though Sasha was on Team Harvey last time.

[Jack Nevada]

Hmm, so Marion Cottilard got snubbed?

The Academy is Anti Blockbuster unless your James Cameron.

TKS vs. TSN was somewhat exciting, since some suspense remained until Hooper's DGA win.

No noms for TDKR-disapointing there. Nice for Lincoln.Trivia-best actress has the biggest age gap ever.

I agree with Baumer. I don't see Spielberg missing out on Director this year. But, pic is going to be down to the wire I think. Would be so happy if SLP wins though.

Annnnd here we go!

So that means the real shocker of shockers was Affleck. Sexism not withstanding.

[Jack Nevada]

Interesting we have both the youngest ever and the oldest ever actresses nominated

[baumer]

No one will have a better day than Harvey and Jeff Wells.

Except Shakespear In Love was not a real Oscar film and it never should have been nominated. SLP is the real deal and it has every right to be here.

No worries. Snow White was nominated instead for best Visual Effects.

Happy to see Django and Skyfall made it for Cinematography.

Hell yeah, that'll teach her a lesson. Trying to steal Legend Riva's Foreign Language Acting Nom. Academy Award Nominee Emmanuelle Riva, I just love the sound of that. Should've gotten in 5 decades ago for Hiroshima mon Amour. But, doesn't matter.

[Jack Nevada]

This year's Oscars will be a thrill for me

[RichWS]

I can't agree with you. It's a entertaining film, no doubt. Big time Oscar contender? Let's just say it wouldn't get my vote.

50 minutes late but let the misogyny bashing commence.

[Sims]

Django's cinematography nom does make up for its costume snub.

[The Stingray]

What's all this talk of sexism? I don't follow..

[Jack Nevada]

Annnnd here we go!

Oh fuuuuucking christ

[The Futurist]

SLP got a nom in every field it could except for Music ...
