The Holdovers for all the things

 

Glad to see Godzilla get a nom for visual effects and The Boy and the Heron get a nom for animated film

 

Some initial thoughts


- Honestly a very strong BP lineup. The only one i didnt like was American Fiction
- Gerwig should have been in for director
- Robbie getting snubbed for best actress is nuts (especially when Ferrera is in for supporting?) Annette Benning is great but really, Nyad is a movie that does not exist.
- Asteroid City & The Iron Claw getting shut out is a real bummer.
- Indy in for best score like I get they want to celebrate John Williams again while they still can but c'mon Joe Hisashi & Daniel Pemperton deserved that slot
- Killers of the Flower Moon not in for adapted screenplay is pretty wild. Zone of Interest is an incredible directing achievement but what's special with that movie i don't think is necessarily on the page
- No Charles Melton/Julianne Moore in supporting categories. They screwed up there.
- Wes Anderson might get his first oscar for best short film!
- Godzilla Minus One in for visual effects - very cool
- GET FUCKED SALTBURN!!!! HELL YEA

Overall, pretty good noms this year tho!

 

May December was arguably the most critically acclaimed film of the year and so much ink was spilled praising the work of the three leads. The Oscars are a little better than they were in the Miramax days but did you really have to give those nominations to stuff like Maestro and something called Nyad that no one has ever seen?

 

Maestro is really good

 

did Leo not get a nom for KOTFM?

 

Better than May December?

 

nope, the 5th one not listed there is Colman Domingo for Rustin

 

the best actress statue has to already have Lily's name engraved

 

No. Just not the movie I would call out as the one that sticks out where May December should have been. Nyad's noms are the classic work of old people brain however

 

Maestro is a bad movie, I am absolutely confounded by its fans. Not for me.

May December wasn’t tracking to get much love, but no noms for the three leads is bad, I’ll echo above it seems like Nyad took these, a shame.

International Feature is a total mess. No Fallen Leaves or The Taste of Things is a travesty. Saw Society of the Snow the other day, not good!

No Greta or Margot, but America is just bizarre

No Killers of the Flower Moon in adapted feels bad too.


The best group of Best Picture noms in some time.

 

Nominees ranked:
1. Killers of the Flower Moon
2. Past Lives
3. Anatomy of a Fall
4. Barbie
5. Oppenheimer
6. The Holdovers
7. Maestro
8. Poor Things

 

this is actually the biggest standout to me, so insane

 

whack for gosling to get a nom but not Margot.

 

Still need to see:

American Fiction
Anatomy of a Fall
The Zone of Interest

AF is the only one that's been in a theater near me, will definitely try to catch that this week or weekend while I still can

 

I actually think he’s better in the movie?

 

From what I’ve seen:


Oppenheimer
Killers of the Flower Moon
Past Lives
Anatomy of a Fall
The Holdovers
Barbie
Maestro


Need to see: American Fiction, Zone of Interest, Poor Things


I’ve liked everything so far except Maestro.

 

nominees ranked:
1. KOTFM
2. Anatomy of a Fall
3. Past Lives
4. Oppenheimer
5. Maestro
6. The Holdovers
7. Barbie

haven't seen American Fiction, Poor Things or Zone of Interest yet

 

Shouldn’t have expected it but no Cruz for Supporting Actress is brutal

 

Best picture rankings

KOTFM by a mile

I'll figure out the rest later

 

Really hoping Paul Giamatti can get Best Actor
