RichWS Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 WAAAY too early to really say this, but I'm not feeling August beyond a couple of acting nods. I think it's the John Wells Factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 John Wells will get a DGA nod and he will win DGA. Mark my words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acsc1312 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I hope Nebraska is an actual good movie worthy of praise, instead of an obligatory Payne circle jerk. He's good, but it just seems he tries too hard. Extremely overrated, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Nope not happeningHollywood Politics guarantees a nod, the win isn't hard from there. You have to realise exactly who Wells is and what he's done, and how much support there is in the industry for him, and the fact that DGA voted the way it does also really helps.

CoolioD1 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I'm in the exact opposite boat I thought Sideways should have won Picture. Sideways is brilliant but man I hated The Descendants, so I guess I'm in between. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I finally watched all of sideways last month and enjoyed it, but didn't think it should've won anything besides screenplay. There are elements in Payne's films that just don't sit right with me. That discussion's for another time, though.And dat August cast! Give them ALL the Oscars!

Jack Nevada Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I'm in the exact opposite boat I thought Sideways should have won Picture. Agreed. Sidways is a great, great movie. One of the best dramedies of the noughties. Paul Giamatti was robbed a nomination, too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all sounds nice and good and all, but perhaps you can actually explain that instead of assuming it. Your predictions weren't all that for last year, so you should lay off the guarantees. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
