I would have voted for “Encanto” in many categories but it wasn’t even on the Best Picture list…

…and just because Disney submitted the wrong song, does that really mean WE have to snub “We Don’t Talk About Bruno?”

No. That’s what Best Documentary is for. I also think there needs to be a ban on documentaries in the Foreign Language Film category as they keep infecting that lineup.

oof! Tell us how you really feel!

I personally don’t believe that any film should be excluded from any category where they are eligible or deserving.

Firstly, I should probably state that I’m LGBT. Now, I’m probably in the minority here where I preferred Burrow to Out.

As a queer person myself, I’m inclined to agree. There’s a sense of whimsy + emotion in Burrow that isn’t in Out. But also, as a queer person, I just want more queer narratives to be recognized by the Oscars!

I would say that this is overall the best group of nominees in 3 years. Sad for Ma Rainey and One Night in Miami, but I’m happy to see that the love was spread around this year.

To everyone who has been waiting for this exciting day to come, enjoy it!!!

All right, I’m setting myself up for disappointment and putting SOUL in my predictions for Original Screenplay.

I’m having the hardest time with predicting Director. I had Zhao, Chung, Fincher, Fennell and Sorkin, then I subbed in Darius Marder instead of Sorkin. But then I’d be predicting 7 nominations for SoM, which would be quite surprising.

I’m tempted to put Sorkin back in again, but then it would line up with DGA 5/5… any advice, friends?

I love that Soul got every nomination it was “eligible” for. Makes me wonder if it would have gotten Director and Editing if it were in the prediction center…

To everyone angry that the BAFTAs are somehow losing their precursor status… at least these nominations are exciting and inspired. Would you have preferred they nominated Sia’s MUSIC to keep it consistent across awards season?

Soul is NOT going to win VFX. Nothing about these nominations would indicate that since it didn’t beat any of its competition from the live action side (by default, because they compete in different categories).  

Soul literally led the VES nomination count with 5 nominations, and it’s one of 10 movies on the VFX shortlist. I don’t know if it’s winning, but this is a good sign it could be nominated.

I’m just not sure why we put so much stock into what these 85 people think. Wake me up when it’s time for CC and SAG.

Wouldn’t it be something if The Woman in the Window somehow got nominated…
