If we’re strictly speaking in terms of quantity, then I’m not sure how you can say anyone other than Ford or Ozu, unless you truly do not like their work (blasphemous!).

Godard lol

Went with Lee, though I’m incredibly fond of both Andersons and a variable fan of Fincher’s.

Where is it the consensus? Not on this plane of existence, I know that much.

Gosh, I’m so surprised that a near-century-old institution that refuses to adapt to the technological and political times has lost all its popularity.

Lol @ how this implies that both Streep and Day-Lewis are deserving of 3 wins when the opposite is true.

Marcello Mastroianni…oh, wait. They’re on pretty equal footing, in my eyes, given that their respective strengths are so, well, strong. Day-Lewis has an intensity that lends his talent to enigmatic and eccentric characters, whereas Hopkins’ adaptability allows him to play his cards closer, breathing life in measured and specific means. Bit of a toss-up really, and it probably comes down to my mood on any given day.

I’m somewhat surprised at the reaction here… After BAFTA, wasn’t McDormand a done deal? Nobody actually saw Day, and Davis’ film didn’t have the support she would need.

Obviously, there’s an absurd number of performances from black women and non-men that have been deserving of this award, the vast majority of which have not come close to the discussion because they’re not in studio productions. Like I said a few months ago–shit like this will continue to happen so long as focus is locked squarely on representation, rather than revolution.

Actors, while still the largest branch of the Academy, have been seeing their share of the pie reduced as the Academy invites in more and more directors, writers, and crafts people into its ranks.

Thank God.

*Preferred winners don’t win* “God, they’ll never ask these producers back again, they did a terrible job.”

Anyway, better ceremony than usual! My thanks to Soderbergh. Absolutely shite winners, though.

Would give her 0 nominations personally, but if she had to have all of these, I would actually give her the win for Sweet Dreams. For better or for worse, she was the best in the category that year lol
