What was the point of Nsfc announcing a new category for production design if they decide not to do it.
I already said it in another thread.
Last year the 1917 team has been incredibly lucky that it benefited from a deeply shortened award season.
They came out late, peaked at the right time, but burned out even faster than anticipated because of lack of actual, real passion for the movie.
It was more like an initial knee-jerk reaction of the awards voters against the widely praised (and early in the race) late career masterworks by two American icons, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood and The Irishman.If it was a normal awards season they wouldn’t have swept the Guilds, the PGA would have gone to Parasite or Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
This shit won’t happen this year.

Who do you think would win all the Director awards that Mendes won? Tarantino maybe?
The funny thing about last year’s DGA race was that the Critic’s Choice were the only ones who got it right. To be fair, they cheated by giving Mendes and Bong the tie, but they were still the only ones.

Yeah not sure what was going on there. I wonder if the tweeter just mistakenly thought there was a production design category when writing that tweet.

They do have that category but they may or may not choose to award it. The tweet did say that.
Am I the only one who is already bored with the awards? Too predictable for my taste. Fingers crossed for the GG to shake things up

I think we’ve seen pretty much everything we will from the critics, at least the most important ones. Maybe some late stretch nominations can still help those like Kirby, Colman, Yeun (though he’s actually been doing ok), or Zendaya, but the critics announced have pretty much already shaped the contours of the race to the extent it was ever going to and well before many AMPAS voters even watch these films for themselves. I’m not sure if that means these critics awards will have less influence than in most years or weirdly have more since a lot of voters don’t have the usual campaign season of the past to help guide and inform their ballots.

Ah yes. You are right.

Wolfali, I didn’t read that’s your predictions and I thought Amanda won. I’m still not recovered from yesterday.
⭐Best Actress - Carey Mulligan, Rosamund Pike
⭐Best Supporting Actress - Youn Yuh-Jung
Considering their past winners, I’d say St. Louis is going with either Frances or Carey in Actress.
