I’m not surprised. People on this forum hate Cooper, so they obviously won’t predict him even though he is clearly the frontrunner

Most people are predicting him though …

I’m hoping you meant this as a blanket statement of through the years cause: Ummm did you already forget BAFTAs awarded like only 3 movies themselves: Banshees, Elvis and All Quiet took majority of their awards…besides a win here and there for other movies. So how exactly did they do their own thing when they didn’t exactly spread the wealth either… so again I hope you are referring to more than just this year.

I think that user meant overall. No actor/actress swept and more performances were rewarded with industry awards. Thus spreading the wealth.

But back to your point. BAFTA did a better job at spreading the wealth with all the movies nominated in Best Film getting something.

These comments about women not smiling or clapping enough are so tasteless. It’s always about women and not men too.

Colin was never going to win this after he couldn’t win the BAFTA, I don’t know why people didn’t come to terms with that weeks ago and are feeling sad and disappointed now. I for one am just glad we finally have a year with ZERO biopic winners. Thank you Brendan for putting a stop to the Elvis impersonator and his ridiculous voice.

I do think frustration builds up when you see so many great performances getting unrewarded. Just last season it was Cumberbatch and now Colin. People are allowed and entitled to feel sad or disappointed. Let them be.

JLC winning is actually hilarious when you consider the season as a whole. As I’ve said before though, gonna pretend it was a make up for Freaky Friday

Tired of pretending these actors win for better performances as a way to cope. I want to celebrate worthy wins.

Cate has mostly worn black this season. Really curious what she and Michelle do tonight. But I fully expect someone to wear gold 😭

I would stick with Yeoh. I want Cate to win because in my opinion she gives the best performance in the category but I don’t think the Oscars will pass on the opportunity to give it to a second POC so congrats to Michelle. It’s gonna be an iconic moment that’s for sure.

Happy Cate won something for this fantastic performance though. She proved that women can do it as good as men even if they rarely win the Oscar for it. Lydia Tar is up there with Daniel Plainview, Terence Fletcher and Hannibal Lecter. Only legends lol. I love villains/anti heroes.

Question: Are we ever getting a ballot that doesn’t have EEAAO in all categories?

Omg. I just saw the post completely. The Academy should take Michelle Yeoh nomination. Isn’t posting and campaigning against the other contenders in your category against Academy rules??

It is and the article is basically encouraging people to not vote for the white contender. I don’t understand Yeoh’s desperation especially since the momentum is on her side and Blanchett has been so supportive. Ugly move.

Lol. That’s exactly what Frances&co did by reposting an article which had Blanchett’s name.

Lmao, I think Michelle Yeoh broke Academy rules including Blanchett's name in her Instagram post 😂 https://t.co/kW3pSj1E6M

A Yeoh win would be historic and will recognize the best performance in that category
