True, but stats have to be looked at in context, not just to point blank rule out any possible win. 1917 missing the editing nomination is pointless, since the whole nature of the film was to appear “edit-less”. Like Birdman. It’s not a snub. It can’t be considered a snub.

Last year, Green Book’s Directing snub was continuously brought up as…[Read more]

Lol. All those stats (and more) were literally JUST broken with 1917 winning PGA.

– First film to win PGA without any SAG Noms (preferential ballot era).
– First film to win with no ACE Eddie nomination.
– Second film to win PGA with no Editing nomination at the Oscars (preceded by Birdman)
– First film to win with no Golden Globe Screenplay…[Read more]

Stats fall. Every year.

SAG Ensemble stat was destroyed (Green Book, The Shape of Water)

The Editing stat took a hit (Birdman)

The Directing stat took another hit (Green Book)

This year, the SAG, Editing and Acting nominations stats will all fall again.

1917 is winning DGA and BAFTA.

How you cannot see that just means you are predicting with your heart and not your head.

Like I said. All the way.

BAFTA, DGA and ASC next, and then…. voilà!

1917 all the way

Al Pacino is winning.

You mean you WISH she won’t be nominated.

A September release in the UK, grossing almost $10 million there. Coupled with a National TV/Film Award win, and Dublin + London Critics Circle nominations.

This isn’t a late release or underseen, no-name actress we are talking about here. Unlike Regina King, Jenny’s been around the UK box office…[Read more]

It’s like you people don’t even know who and what SAG is……actors don’t give a damn about Metacritic reviews or critical divisiveness. SAG-AFTRA has always liked, popular, basic, non-highbrow entertainment. Trumbo. Hidden Figures. Straight Outta Compton, The Butler, Bohemian Rhapsody, etc.

There are gonna be 1 or 2 POC ensemble nominees,…[Read more]

Joker wins the Golden Frog and the Audience Award at the Camerimage Film Festival.

It’s now a major contender for Cinematography at the Oscars. It’s probably winning ASC.

Between Marriage Story and The Irishman, I can’t wait to see which of the two Netflix top dogs underperforms nomination morning.

Because they are not both getting Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplays, Best Actors, Best Supporting Actors/Actresses, etc.

+13 nominations are being predicted for just these two movies. In the top…[Read more]

The underdog they won’t see coming.
The film is sweeping Audience Awards. Not counting TIFF, it is winning the same Audience Awards Green Book, Spotlight and Lion won.

Jamie Foxx coming for that second Oscar, and Warner Bros about to OWN the 2020 Oscars .

LOL. I see #FilmTwitter and Oscar pundits never change. Looks like Bombshell is the “Mary Poppins Returns” and “Carol” of this year. First screenings and apparently it’s a HUGE Oscar contender, with multiple nominations lined up, including Best Picture. And 2 Acting wins assured.

And yet they ignore who the demographic and target audience for…[Read more]

Is Netflix really gonna dominate the entire Golden Globes this year?

– 2 x Best Drama (Marriage Story, The Irishman)
– 2 x Best Comedy (Dolemite Is My Name, The Two Popes)
– Drama Actress (Marriage Story)
– 2 x Drama Actor (Marriage Story, The Irishman)
– 2 x Comedy Actor (The Two Popes, Dolemite Is My Name)
– 2 x Supporting Actor (The Irishman,…[Read more]
