2020 Awards Season • Page 15

okay this makes much more sense haha

 

If I were to guess right now, I think "1917" would win the award (Not saying that I want it to win). It's amazing on a technical level and completely unchallenging and streamlined for any viewer, where "Parasite," "Once Upon A Time" and "Irishman" are longer and more complex. "Parasite" will sadly win the Best Foreign Film so the Academy can pretend they give a shit.

 

My personal ranking of the Best Picture noms:

1. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
2. Parasite
3. Marriage Story
4. The Irishman
5. 1917
6. Ford V Ferrari
7. Little Women
8. Joker
9. Jojo Rabbit

All around, this is a pretty fantastic group of options. I thoroughly enjoyed each and every one of these movies.

 

They did.

I was drunk. I think.

 

lol whoops. I blame the academy

 

I fell asleep during the Irishman at least 3 times. I don't mind slow methodical movies (watched Burning recently and loved it), but I was thoroughly bored by the Irishman.

 

< means less than < is like an uppercase L, > means greater than. The little monster eats the bigger number (or in this case, the better film).

 

Marriage Story
Parasite
Hollywood
Irishman



Ford v Ferrari
Joker
Jojo Rabbit


haven't seen 1917 or little women yet

 

You WHAT.

 

what

 

Parasite/Little Women/Irishman > Marriage Story/OUATIH >> FvF >>>>>>>>>> 1917 >>> Joker

haven’t seen Jojo. But while they nominated 5 great movies (plus a solid enough one), Joker has 11 nominations and it’s an inevitability that the bottom 3 movies ends up winning most of the prizes, and that there was an ocean of great cinema that came out last year and a lot of nonsense was celebrated over real good stuff

As it always goes

 

it would be shocking for FvF to win. i feel like that has the least chance out of all the nominees. if there is a candidate for the first film knocked off by preferential balloting, it's that one.

 

Yeah I’m (maybe unfairly) grouping Jojo with the bottom 3, Ford v Ferrari won’t make much of a splash. Though it’s 10 times the movie 1917 is

 

If Joaquin wins, that means every actor portraying Joker in a theatrical modern* film won an Oscar for the role or previously won one

*not including the 1960s Batman movie

 

Parasite
1917
Jojo
Marriage
OUATIH
Little Women
Joker
Irishman
FvF

 

i ..... i have questions

 

Richard Brody always worthwhile, love that in his personal awards he gives a costume nomination to Uncut Gems (period pieces and genre fare aren't the only movies that design costumes!!) and I love how much he stands for the Dead Don't Die, which ruled

The Fossilized 2020 Oscar Nominations

 

I’m just surprised you haven’t seen Little Women!

 

I don’t see Joker winning anything other than best actor and maybe best score

 

I'm guessing Ford v Ferrari and Jojo Rabbit walk away empty handed.

The Irishman wins Adapted Screenplay and Editing
Joker wins Best Actor
Little Women wins Costume Design
Marriage Story wins Supporting Actress
1917 wins Cinematography, Sound Mixing, Sound Editing
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood wins Supporting Actor and Original Screenplay
Parasite wins International Feature

Original Score is between 1917 and Joker, more likely the latter.
Production Design is between 1917 and Once Upon a Time. Again, probably the latter.
Director is between Bong and Tarantino, and I think it'll go to Bong.
Picture is between Once Upon a Time, Parasite, Irishman, and 1917, and I think Once will win.

 

I think some are underestimating how much people in the Academy love Joker
