Jack Nevada Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) After seeing Prisoners (a movie I didn't find very impressive tbh) its hard for me to understand how Hugh Jackman could've possibly come close to ruining it. Him and Jake Gyllenhaal were exceptional. Edited December 5, 2013 by Jack Nevada 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChD Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Does Idris Elba have a chance? Considering that Nelson Mandela died recently, Elba might stand a chance at getting in for that role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Nevada Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 (edited) Mads Mikkelsen gives an exceptional performance in The Hunt. One of the best I've seen this year. He has no chance but still. Edited December 7, 2013 by Jack Nevada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Not much clarity yet with the first 6 precursors splitting over 3 people. We probably won't get a semblance of a frontrunner until the Globe/BFCA/SAG winners happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I hope Tom Hanks scores some stuff. He's starting to look shaky. Category is too damn crowded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Considering that Nelson Mandela died recently, Elba might stand a chance at getting in for that role. The main problem is Best Actor is packed, who do you knock out to let Elba in? Ejiofer, McConaughey, and Dern are locked, if early word from Wolf is correct than DiCaprio is most likely in (meaning either Hanks or Redford would get knocked out), and so you have Hanks and Redford fighting for the last spot and Phoenix, Isaac, B. Jordan, and Whitaker fighting for an upset. I could see Hanks going out if they choose to give him a nod for supporting instead and don't feel like nominating him twice. I could see Redford going out because his movie was very small, and it isn't competing for anything except actor, so a snub is very possible. For Elba to get in, he'd not only have to get past those two (who have tons of buzz behind them), he'd also have to get past other others like Oscar Isaac, Michael B. Jordan, Forest Whitaker, and Joaquin Phoenix which have strong buzz behind them too. I wouldn't say that it is impossible, but I don't see it happening, especially with lackluster reviews.
