Encanto winning Animated Feature. I think it was one of Disney’s weakest movies ever.
I didn’t watch it, but I’m just happy Luca didn’t win. By far the Pixar movie I liked the least.
ReplyMarch 28, 2022 at 2:14 pm #1204886487I would mention Ariana Debose win but no one is gonna remember it in a few months, so “universally liked” sounds like a stretch. LMAO
I don’t understand why people wanted her to win so much, totally wasted Oscar win. It should’ve been Kirsten but literally anyone else would’ve been more deserving.
ReplyMarch 28, 2022 at 2:11 pm #1204886478Of course Lady Gaga had to go to the event. She’s already campaigning for her next hammy performance. Desperate for awards, as always. 🤣
ReplyMarch 28, 2022 at 2:07 pm #1204886466Congratulations Jessica Chastain on your DESERVED Oscar win!!! The best performance won. I was so afraid she was gonna be blocked by Penelope because of the movie and the snob appeal it lacked that I didn’t even watch it. lol
ReplyMarch 27, 2022 at 7:13 pm #1204882194Is it strange that I loved Three Billboards more than The Shape Of Water but liked Sally Hawkins’ performance more than McDormand’s?
It’s not, I feel the same way. I disliked TSO with passion but Hawkins was perfect in it.
While I liked 3BB but don’t see anything special about McDormand’s performance.
ReplyMarch 27, 2022 at 7:10 pm #1204882149Olivia Colman – The Favourite, a film that doesn’t deserve any of its praise and the most overrated performance of the decade, albeit not necessarily bad.
I liked the movie but I second this. Colman’s performance is good and that’s it. It’s not the masterclass in acting people pretend it is just because she was the “coolest” nominee. And definitely not one of the best BA winners ever. Plus, it’s NOT a lead performance. She barely has anything to do most of the time.
Frances McDormand’s win for 3BB is better, but still questionable. Deserving of the nomination but not a better performance than the other 4. IMO, it was the weakest in the category. The fact that she swept for it… ugh. Hawkins or Ronan or even Robbie was more deserving.
ReplyMarch 23, 2022 at 3:14 pm #1204871860In such an unsual year, it’s kinda obvious that there’s no frontrunner and the one with the stronger movie will prevail. Considering how divisive The Lost Daughter is, we can count Olivia out. Kidman lacks momentum to win. Lots of people hated Spencer(I’ll never understand why, btw).
Cruz x Chastain, with the consensus being that Chastain’s movie is bad/mediocre, Cruz wins. I’m sad because I really think they should vote for their favorite PERFORMANCE and not their favorite movie. But I’ll be happy with Cruz, Chastain on Stewart winning. Kidman wasn’t win worthy, and Colman would be completely anticlimatic.
March 13, 2022 at 2:58 pm #1204846696Gaga stans can leave the forum now. She lost the BAFTA.
She still “won”. She got nominated everywhere for chewing the scenery. She and her fans should rejoice.
March 12, 2022 at 12:52 pm #1204842935but if you had to choose which one to put in lead who would it be?
If I had to, Stone. The story starts with her character’s arrival, and it ends with her “triumphing”. The reason why I still don’t consider it a leading performance, is because IMO, the character feels too underused to be a lead.
But in reality, the category placement wouldn’t matter to me, because I don’t think it was an Oscar-worthy performance, even though I generally like Emma Stone. I’d have nominated Weisz and Colman for Supporting and that’s it. And I’d give the Oscar to Weisz because she had the best performance, IMO.
ReplyMarch 10, 2022 at 6:45 pm #1204840438Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs is a very specific case because even though he is barely in it, it doesn’t feel like that because he is the second main character. We only remember Clarice and Hannibal after watching it and Hannibal is the most memorable aspect of the movie.
ReplyMarch 10, 2022 at 6:33 pm #1204840405I totally disagree with the notion that Emma Stone was the lead in The Favourite. All three women have basically the same screentime(Emma has 10 more minutes than Rachel, who has just a little less than Colman) and although the story is focused on the feud between Emma and Rachel’s characters, neither has enough focus, development or screentime to be considered THE protagonist. IMO, The Favourite is an ensemble movie and all three belonged in Supporting.
ReplyMarch 4, 2022 at 8:50 pm #1204832044You are an obsessed Gaga hater MarinaBelo2. I am sure you threw a party when Gaga was snubbed by the Oscars and called friends for free drinks 😭
I’d have named the party “Talent won”.
March 3, 2022 at 11:36 pm #1204830685Perhaps they just didn’t like West Side Story, at least not enough to give it an ensemble nomination, it’s simple. They obviously saw the movie otherwise how would they nominate and award DeBose?
Because everybody else is doing that.
March 3, 2022 at 11:35 pm #1204830683While I aunderstand the intention here, I do believe that with the tremendous passion Aunjanue Ellis seems to be having and with King Richard likely having Will Smith winning, I can see both of them winning in a combo, in the sense that voters might pick both together. I still can’t understand how one can vote for Smith but not Ellis (SAG nom com showed how). I mean if Ellis wins BAFTA, though I’ll still predict DeBose, an Ellis upset would be very likely with King Richard’s strength and the strength of Smith. As someone said, BAFTA will be the first industry award in which DeBose faces Aunjanue Ellis. Nevertheless. I’m predicting a DeBose win at the Oscars regardless of what happens at BAFTA because imo a GG+CC+SAG combo>BAFTA alone.
Debose is winning regardless of anything else, unfortunately. I really think with so many strong performances, the new girl could wait.
March 3, 2022 at 11:30 pm #1204830675I MUST take a quick moment and ask where the hell all these Chastain supporters came from? I remember when it was literally just me and Victor Cruz last year saying she was win competitive and everyone else was shitting on her. Does this normally happen on here towards the end of the race? I mean she literally had next to no users advocating for her on here 3-4 months ago. Is it just because you guys are salt your fav doesn’t have a chance and you are all bandwagoning her now?
I’ve been supporting Chastain since I watched The Eyes of Tammy Faye 1 month or so ago.
