2020 Awards Season • Page 9

On the real tho, why are we all okay with DeNiro not getting nominated? I feel like no one is calling it a snub. The phone call scene in The Irishman is probably my favorite "acting" of the year

 

i think it’s more just that it would have been a “surprise” if he got nominated more than it being a snub or whatever that he didn’t, at least with how all the awards running up to this have looked. it sucks ass but that’s kinda been the way this cycle has been trending

 

They are funnier to debate than people who earnestly defend traditional Oscar bait.

 

Arthur Clownman literally is the most-nominated movie of the year. 11 nominations. OUATIH, 1917, and The Irishman all have 10. This is real life.

 

he’s great in it!

 

i think the balloting actually lands us a hollywood best picture and is an exception to the BP/editing nomination rule

 

Until 1917 or Jojo take it

 

“Dolemite is my Name” not even getting the costume nom while Clownman does is a real wtf.

 

And 1917 getting a Best Original Screenplay nom is truly fucked.

 

Is Uncut Gems nominated for anything? Wtf

 

Jojo is so weird. Middling reviews, shitty box office: six Oscar nominations.

 

Also 1917 is fucking good. Go see it.

 

BP will be either 1917 or Joker. Praying that it's 1917.

 

JoJo might win honestly

 

This Pope fucks!

 

i don’t see any chance of that happening. it’s more likely to me that jojo wins nothing than it is winning best picture

 

Yeah y’all are fuckin high. BP is OUATIH, 1917 or Parasite.

 

Greta and Noah are both gonna win for screenplays and it will be the loveliest thing ever

 

I would like to think that a win by JoJo Rabbit or Joker would cause people to stop watching, but if Green Book can't do it, nothing can.

 

please

 

Does the academy hate a24 or something ? So many of their films this year robbed of any acknowledgement

 

Nobody is gonna stop watching. Most people don't remember what movie won last year

 

it isn’t that shocking. a24 is still a pretty small studio with pretty low budget movies. it’s more shocking to me that people seemed to think that the lighthouse or gems were locks for BP nominations when pretty much everything indicated they were long shots behind knives out or bombshell etc.

 

I don't know if it's because of the clown but I feel like people are more aggressively saying the lack of female directors etc is merit based which is laughable
