Kvikk Lunsj Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I'll probably never watch the Oscars again if she loses. But, most likely I'll see some foreign film that came out of Cannes and totally champion that all season. High stakes So what did when she lost the other years she was nominated or did become a fan of years in the last couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Can somebody explain to me, did Argo direct itself? I mean it's suppossedly the best movie so did it make itself? Affleck's ommision for the BD nomination was truly shocking. I'd be curious to know when the last time was that a movie won Best Picture and the director wasn't even nominated. I remember Ridley Scott whining about losing Director when Gladiator won Picture, but at least Scott was nominated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Go to JLaw's wikipedia page, and scroll down to the filmography section. Now keep scrolling and scrolling through line after line for all her award nominations and wins for Winter's Bone, THG, and SLP. Absolutely amazing for just 3 movies. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_Lawrence#Film Edited February 25, 2013 by iceroll 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I mean really Academy you couldn't even nominate Heat for best score?**Come back in 2031 when I complain about a film that wasn't nominated from this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Gary Scott Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Lisbeth Salandar, Marilyn Monroe, and an 19th centure Irish transvestite. I often delude myself into thinking that Legend Swinton got nominated. le Sigh. Ok now i remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted February 25, 2013 Author Share Posted February 25, 2013 LOL. Relax, what I meant was JLaw would get nominated many times just like Meryl. I know there will be only one Meryl Streep. That's not even offensive anymore, that's just downright funny, and delusional. Meryl's gonna get to something like 25 by the time she's done with acting. There's no one touching that, especially with the careers of Actresses getting shorter and shorter, and roles for older women getting scarcer and scarcer. People like Streep, Close, Riva, and etc. are anomalies in the BA race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Gittes Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Happy about Tarantino and Waltz, not happy about Lee and Brave, shame (once again) about Deakins, nearly all the awards were as predictable as they could have been, except for Sound Editing (no idea what that was about, but glad ZDT won at least something), Director and Production Design. Some great jokes, some great speeches, but probably not enough of either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Beating Riva is fine, it's already happened and I'll get over it with copious amounts of sex, booze, and ciggies. But, THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE AND ONLY EVER ONE MERYL STREEP IN THE PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE. NO ONE WILL EVER BE LIKE MERYL EVER AGAIN. JUST LOOK AT HER PRESENTATION TODAY. ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, DIVINE, AND ONE OF A KIND. Do you know what the term "gay" means? I think you might be a homomerylsexual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I'm VERY interested how Chastain can do with The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby. It's an odd setup (two films, from two perspectives). Hopefully it'll be released this year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a fan of hers since Adaptation. And, I wasn't quite as crazy about her that year. Most other years I knew she wasn't gonna win, no way in hell so it wasn't too demoralising. But Violet Weston is just a crazy ass role, and it's like the oscar bait upon oscar bait. It's like a role that's normally only reserved for men, but for a woman this time. I'd be pretty fucking pissed if she lost. Edited February 25, 2013 by riczhang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gopher Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Winners- Life of Pi- Most wins including an arguable upset in Directing over Spielberg... definitely #2 on overall preferential ballot tally Argo- Obviously Django Unchained- Won Supporting Actor and Screenplay, both of which were the furthest from locks Losers- SLP- No Supporting Actor and no Screenplay Lincoln- No Picture, Director, or Screenplay ZDT- Only a Sound win and it was a tie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Scottb Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 What does Jlaw have up next? Catching Fire Serena (another movie with Bradley Cooper) X-Men Untitled Abscam film (next David O Russel movie) The Ends of the Earth (another David O Russel movie) Serena, Abscam, and The Ends of the Earth could be future Oscar bait though her role in Abscam is supposed to be small.
