mmm…I think Extremely Loud & Incredible Close will be left out in the picture/director/screenplay categories….I have this feeling growing it will have mixed reactions…I can see it getting some love maybe from Globes and Oscar voter, but not from critics..I would bet just on von Sydow at the moment.

Are we underestimating Drive? It keeps popping up, and I’m not even complaining. 🙂

No Oldman for Actor, Mara and Close for Actress, and McTeer and Bullock for Supporting Actress.

COMPLETELY SHUTOUT
– Carnage
– Cars 2
– Contagion
– Coriolanus
– Margin Call
– Melancholia
– Rampart
– Take Shelter
– Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
– W.E. 

Best Actor snubs
– Ralph Fiennes, Coriolanus
– Woody Harrelson, Rampart
– Gary Oldman, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
– Michael Shannon, Take Shelter

Best Actress snubs
– Glenn Close, Albert Nobbs
– Kirsten Dunst, Melancholia

Best Supporting Actor snubs
– John Hawkes, Martha, Marcy, May, Marlene
– Max von Sydow, Extremely Loud, and Incredibly Close

Best Supporting Actress snubs
– Sandra Bullock, Extremely Loud, and Incredibly Close
– Jessica Chastain, The Tree of Life (but in for The Help)
– Janet McTeer, Albert Nobbs
– Vanessa Redgrave, Coriolanus

Ramblings…

– I guess Ralph Fiennes won’t be joining the Robert Redford/Kevin Costner/Mel Gibson school of actors-who-won-Oscars-for-Directing considering his film, Coriolanus, was completely shut out.

– No Cars 2. Not surprised, but this is Pixar we’re talking about.

– How does Leo manage to get in for the most disappointing film of 2011 yet is snubbed for Shutter Island and Inception?

– Speaking of J. Edgar…Best Makeup?! Are you kidding me?!?!

– On another note of J. Edgar, if they had to give it love, why not give a nod to the only redeeming aspect of the entire film, Supporting Actor Armie Hammer? He was snubbed for…Caesar the Ape?

– Surprised at the love for Young Adult. More intrigued to see it now than I was before.

– Melissa McCarthy’s buzz just won’t die. She may just land the Oscar nod after all.

– The Tree of Life gets in for Best Picture yet has no noms for Directing, Writing or acting?

– The BFCA showed they couldn’t care less about box office, as Drive garnered seven nominations and Hugo garnered 11. Wow.

– VERY happy to see Win, Win receive a Screenplay nod. The best underseen film of 2011.

– Very sad to see Take Shelter with no nominations. The second best underseen film of 2011, containing the best leading male performance of the year (Michael Shannon).

– Holy sh!t about no Glenn Close. I knew she didn’t have a chance for the win, but shutout of a nomination?! Say it ain’t so…

– Wasn’t expecting much for W.E. but thought it was at least safe for Costume and – wishful thinking/hoping/praying – Original Song (“Masterpiece” by Madonna).

– Hugo seems to be the “blockbuster” garnering all the noms this year but that honor should really go to Super 8.

– I thought there was buzz for the final Harry Potter getting in the major categories (Picture, Writing, Directing), but I guess this died that down.

– Everyone always mentions how Streep manages to get the [Oscar] nom yet there’s no other major support (Picture, Direction, Writing). The tradition seems to continue on, at least where the BFCA is concerned. Though The Iron Lady also got a Makeup nod. Jim Broadbent, however, was snubbed. No worries though….Caesar the Ape is in.

More to come I’m sure.     

–Morgan
