Glad to see so many Toni Collette fans! Let’s speak her Oscar into existence! Let’s not forget that buzz is everything! Justice for Toni!

You Can be sure a lot of people love her.

Her snub in 2019 was more painful than watching Isabelle Huppert losing to Cruella Stone in Oscars 2017. And that already was a sacrilege.

Man I hope this is Collette’s vehicle. She should have won for The Sixth Sense and been nominated for Hereditary.

Toni Collette should have been nominated AND THEN WON for Hereditary. Her snub still hurts and is probably due to that infamous score by Cinemascore, although she was a critical darling that season alongside Ethan Hawke.

 

I would say that Cinemascore damaged her the same way Lars von Trier’s statements did to Kirsten Dunst in 2011 for Melancholia.

Ironically, both Collette and Dunst seem to be strong contenders in the same category this season…

I sincerely hope Lady Gaga does not get a nomination for House of Gucci.

I’m particularly curious about the snubbed ones who come back this year: Dunst in The Power of The Dog and Collette in Nightmare Alley. I hope they both get nominated and win.

Dunst Nation. If Gaga steals another award from her, I will lose it.

I don’t know. I got Razzies vibe when I watched House of Gucci trailer. Specially for Gaga (who along with Yalitza) robbed Collete’s spot in Best Actress Lineup of 2018…

Greta Gerwig is phenomenal as an actress when Baumbach lets her indulge in her idiosyncrasies (Greenberg, Frances Ha) and she also has serious acting chops independent of him (20th Century Women). I can’t wait to see her act again!

Greta deserved an Oscar nomination for that.

She’ll still be in House of Gucci in case Stillwater flops. I hope this woman gets more work in Hollywood. Love her.

I agree! I loved her in Netflix’s “Dix Pour Cent”. She’s hilarious… and has an excellent English.

Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris will be released in March 2022.

So that leaves Belfast, Last Night in Soho and The Northman. One of those will be Focus’ main push (if not two like when they had Darkest Hour and Phantom Thread, maybe Last Night in Soho and The Northman?)

Man, I hope Isabelle Huppert will have a baity supporting role in this.

They will block each other lol I want someone new to win. Two years in a row and I’m still waiting. That said I need Madame Cotillard to have as many nominations as possible

I think Cotillard is great, but I’d love to see the Academy rewarding someone due; whether they are due for a first nomination, like Kirsten Dunst OR due for a first win, like Toni Collette.

Spread the wealth, Academy. Although I liked the last 2 lauded actresses, I was particularly heartbroken this year for Mulligan (even if McDormand is my favorite actress). It was bizarre to see her table in almost complete dark when her name was announced. I assume Carey won’t want to work with Soderbergh 🙂

I would love to see NBC broadcasting a new awards show.

“The Snubbed Awards” – rules would be:

– critics and industry could vote (a mix between Critics Choice / SAG / WGA and DGA voting groups)

– they would vote for performers / writers / directors snubbed (including nominations) at the previous Oscar. Therefore, it would be the LAST event of the awards season.

Or maybe they might sign a contract with Razzie Awards.

Viola Davis didn’t deserve a nomination for Lead Actress in Oscars 2021.

McDormand is a legend and proves that you don’t have to do those awkward roundtable talks or go to idiot late night shows (like imbecile Colbert calling Isabelle Huppert, the french Meryl Streep).

She’s above all that and I’m proud of it, as a fan.

Cate Blanchett – Nightmare Alley Charlotte Rampling – Bernadetta Tilda Swinton – Three Thousand Years of Longing Ann Dowd – Mass Frances McDormand – The Tragedy of Macbeth Isabelle Huppert – Joan Vera

 

Rampling  was robbed back in Oscars 2016, but I believe she has a supporting female performance to Virginie Efira in Benedetta. Her role anyway looks like a juicy one, but I’m afraid the sexual theme will not play well with the Academy (just see Mulligan this year).

Love this list as they are all so deserving, but I can’t decide between these two. Dunst was snubbed badly for Interview with the Vampire which would have been an iconic career boosting and rare nomination for a horror movie. Blunt has shown more versatility in her career so far than many recent Oscar winners, unfortunately she’s never been in a Best Picture nominee. Once she has this fortune she should finally be locked perhaps even for a win.

 

Dunst was snubbed badly for Melancholia. If was nominated that year, she would me more deserving than Meryl Streep.

Last Night in Soho seems so overrated already, can’t see it going much beyond techs. Already mourning for Toni Collette, she may sweep critics again and be snubbed due to genre bias. The Academy doesn’t only need to diversify membership based on race but also diversity attitudes to genre.

Hereditary says hello to Nightmare Alley.

Having just watched “I’m Thinking of Ending Things”, I think Collette was great in her supporting turn in the film. I hope she overcomes the bias like she did in “The Sixth Sense”.
