ecstasy Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Fishnets was right. Ben and Bigelow canceled each other for Oscar best director. They had to take votes away from each other for neither to get nominated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I wanted a anything upset here. Some ways it is upset I did not think Ben was going to win because he was not nominated for BD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Love the new title. And it is also worth noting that DGA doesn't technically vote for the director per se. To my understanding, they write the name of the film they're voting for on their ballot. Academy votes by name of director.

Sims Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Some ways it is upset I did not think Ben was going to win because he was not nominated for BD. I did. He and his film are the clear consensus picks. Edited February 3, 2013 by Sims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 I wounder if Haneke will win best director now. Amour was not nominated DGA, SAF, or writers award. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 Yeah, the only thing stranger than a non-BD nominee winning DGA is a non-DGA nominee winning BD. It's Spielberg vs. Lee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it going to be between Haneke or Behn Zeitlin. The BAFTA Awards will be big next week. This is the first time in a long time where the BD for Oscar is anyone best guess.

acsc1312 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Yep, it's heneke or zeitlin for the oscar. When DGA doesn't line up, it's usually the one that wasn't nominated at dga Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When DGA doesn't line up, it's usually the one that wasn't nominated at dga God I hope it is Heneke. I would be pissed if Zeitlin wins. Beasts better not win the Oscar. The more I think about Beasts the more I hate. Such an annoying film. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnY Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Ugh, ok, nothing can stop Argo now, I guess. It's strange to see a non-BD nominee winning best picture, but the winner of DGA, PGA and SAG not winning is even stranger, isn't it?

It still can loose BP Amour and Beast will not eligible for DGA, PGA, and SAG. There must be a group of people in the Academy that did not care for Argo as much as the others so it loose some votes. This is a strange situation where a movie wins all the big awards but does not have a best director nominee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Nevada Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Man this Oscar race has went from very exciting to very boring in about 2 weeks time. I know, right? It seems like Argo not winning BP would be a Crash size shocker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) As long as Spielberg wins for his masterpiece I'm fine. Id take an Argo/Spielberg split. Affleck is getting at the Oscar what his character in the film. Great honour, but not a real piece of medal lol Edited February 3, 2013 by Alfred Unchained Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stingray Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Django is the best of the ones I've seen. Still think Lincoln wins Best Picture. Best Director goes to Spielberg or Ang Lee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
