Mladen Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) *** Appropriately, this post was brought to you by AI *** Hello, fellow movie buffs! Welcome to the Oscars 2024 thread. As we approach the climax of the film awards season, which kicked off officially with the fall festivals including Venice, Telluride, New York, and Toronto, we find ourselves on the brink of the grand finale—the Academy Awards scheduled for March 10th. Reflecting on the journey thus far, it's fair to say that this year's Oscar race has been rather smooth sailing, lacking the usual twists and turns that keep us on the edge of our seats. Predictable winners have emerged in most major categories, with perhaps the exception of Best Actress, which remains a thrilling uncertainty until the final envelope is opened on Sunday night. The summer box office frenzy was dominated by what some have dubbed the "Barbenheimer phenomenon," a trend that spilled over into the award season. As many industry pundits foresaw, BARBIE enjoyed a stellar run, albeit with fewer accolades than expected given its plethora of nominations. The notable absence of Margot Robbie in the Best Actress category and Greta Gerwig in Best Director stirred considerable public controversy—perhaps more than warranted—and likely left a sour taste in the mouths of Oscar voters. Nevertheless, Christopher Nolan's OPPENHEIMER continues to command adoration, poised to potentially clinch seven, if not nine or ten, Oscars. Looking back at the season, there's not much to critique. The Academy deserves commendation for curating a Best Picture lineup that is diverse, captivating, and truly reflective of the cinematic landscape. While personal tastes may vary, the selection represents a compelling array of the finest films of the year, particularly noteworthy for its inclusion of three female-directed films, two international projects, and two of the top five highest-grossing films worldwide. However, criticism persists over the Academy's ongoing oversight of animated films in the Best Picture category, with many lamenting the absence of contenders like Miyazaki's THE BOY AND THE HERON or SPIDER-MAN: ACROSS THE SPIDERVERSE. Here are the nominations for 96th Academy Award in 23 categories: Spoiler Best Picture American Fiction Anatomy of a Fall Barbie The Holdovers Killers of the Flower Moon Maestro Oppenheimer Past Lives Poor Things The Zone of Interest Best Director Justine Triet, “Anatomy of a Fall” Martin Scorsese, “Killers of the Flower Moon” Christopher Nolan, “Oppenheimer” Yorgos Lanthimos, “Poor Things” Jonathan Glazer, “The Zone of Interest” Best Lead Actress Annette Bening, “Nyad” Lily Gladstone, “Killers of the Flower Moon” Sandra Hüller, “Anatomy of a Fall” Carey Mulligan, “Maestro” Emma Stone, “Poor Things” Best Lead Actor Bradley Cooper, “Maestro” Colman Domingo, “Rustin” Paul Giamatti, “The Holdovers” Cillian Murphy, “Oppenheimer” Jeffrey Wright, “American Fiction” Best Supporting Actress Emily Blunt, “Oppenheimer” Danielle Brooks, “The Color Purple” America Ferrera, “Barbie” Jodie Foster, “Nyad” Da’Vine Joy Randolph, “The Holdovers” Best Supporting Actor Sterling K.

DireWolfSpirit Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 (edited) Really pleased "The Creator" is nominated for Best Visual Effects. I thought that it was a little better than a lot of people who apparently didnt widely watch it, under the radar entertaining so to speak, at least for me. Eta: Just a little aside the majority of posters here probably realize, but more than a few U.S. midwesterners may be surprized to realize, Cillian is actually pronounced as we would say Killian, something I never realized till post Peaky Blinder days for him lol.

Hoping otherwise I have no idea how many Oscar nominations Scorsese's movies have garnered and lost, but the number seems to go in triple-digits. Will do statistics one day. For KOTFM, it is Lily or nothing. And I really hope Lily wins. DireWolfSpirit and TheLastWolf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mladen Posted March 5 Author Share Posted March 5 (edited) My predictions BEST PICTURE Will win: OPPENHEIMER Personal choice: THE ZONE OF INTEREST Shouldn't have been nominated: MAESTRO Should have been nominated: MAY DECEMBER This is an easy one. Simply, OPPENHEIMER is undeniable. It cruised through award season unchallenged and I have listened to few interesting Twitter Spaces of people saying that OPPENHEIMER is seen as the closest one to win in first round of voting. BEST DIRECTOR Will win: Christopher Nolan Personal choice: Christopher Nolan Shouldn't have been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: N/A This is one perfect lineup. It is Nolan's time and he has been undeniable all year long. Despite the controversy, I will say I wouldn't place Gerwig in my Top 5. Would opt for Celine Song, though. But, Internet didn't lament over her snub. BEST LEAD ACTRESS Will win: Lily Gladstone Personal choice: Lily Gladstone Shouldn't have been nominated: Annette Bening Should have been nominated: Greta Lee I feel this is the only race we have. Gladstone and Stone have divided the field equally. Both are in Best Picture nominated movies, both did well with both critics and industry. I give Lily a slight advantage because she won at one place no one expected her to win - SAG-AFTRA. For a basic voting body that usually award loud, hammy performances (ahem, ahem, Jessica Chastain), this one was a huge win. With the support of Cate Blanchett (who practically said who she voted for 2 days before voting began), Kate Winslet and Spike Lee... Lily may have this in the bag. That said, it is very close. If she wins, she will be the first Native American woman to win in history, only third POC actress in this category. Lily will also be only the third actress to have won for Scorsese movie, after Ellen Burstyn won Best Lead Actress for "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore" in 1975 and above-mentioned Cate Blanchett for "The Aviator" in 2005. BEST LEAD ACTOR Will win: Cillian Murphy Personal choice: Cillian Murphy Shouldn't have been nominated: Bradley Cooper Should have been nominated: Teo Yoo, Andrew Scott After completing trifecta - Globe-Drama, BAFTA and SAG, this stopped being the race. Murphy is the face of the biggest movie, he was phenomenal and simply, people adore him. Paul Giamatti got CCA and Globe-Comedy, but that is pretty much that. BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS Will win: Da'Vine Joy Randolph Personal choice: Da'Vine Joy Randolph Shouldn't have been nominated: America Ferrera !!! Should have been nominated: Julianne Moore, Penelope Cruz, Rosamund Pike, Claire Foy, Taraji P. Henson... Absolutely nothing to say. Da'Vine Joy Randolph has been the biggest sweeper since Patricia Arquette. Won every single award that could have been won. Oscar is hers. BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR Will win: Robert Downey Jr. Personal choice: NOT NOMINATED - Charles Melton Shouldn't have been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: Charles Melton, Dominic Sessa Another secured Oscar. Downey has won Globe, CCA, BAFTA and SAG. No one loses with that combo. It's his Oscar. BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY Will win: American Fiction Personal choice: American Fiction Shouldn't have been nominated: Barbie (should be Original) Should have been nominated: Killers of the Flower Moon, All of Us Strangers While AMERICAN FICTION has won major awards, including, most interestingly, BAFTA, I am still torn between it and OPPENHEIMER. When sweeps happen, there is always one or two categories caught in a sweep. Now, Blunt is not winning Best Supporting Actress, but OPPENHEIMER ay win Adapted Screenplay and/or Sound. Anonymous ballots also point in that direction. Predicting AMERICAN FICTION but wouldn't be surprised with OPPENHEIMER getting this too. BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY Will win: Anatomy of a Fall Personal choice: Anatomy of a Fall, Past Lives Shouldn't have been nominated: Maestro Should have been nominated: Barbie (in this category) We didn't get WGA this year to give us more insight but Anatomy of a Fall made quite the impression and this may be their big win. Absolutely deserving, if you ask me. BEST INTERNATIONAL FEATURE Will win: The Zone of Interest Personal choice: The Zone of Interest, Society of the Snow Shouldn't have been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: Anatomy of a Fall (ah, France...) THE ZONE OF INTEREST is winning this, undoubtedly. Unless there happens some Netflix sorcery with SOCIETY OF THE SNOW. How crazy is this system show us that ANATOMY OF A FALL has won almost all major awards for international movie in States. Despite THE TASTE OF THINGS being a great film, French committee is under lot of fire as European, French and American audiences made quite clear what they thing about ANATOMY snub. BEST DOCUMENTARY FEATURE Will win: 20 Days in Mariupol Personal choice: Four Daughters Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie Not much to be discussed here. Ukraine has been a hot topic in Hollywood for the past few years. The movie is good and Academy wants to send a message that Ukraine has not been forgotten (despite their continuous rejection of Zelensky's pleas to appear and public shift of focus on Israeli genocide.) BEST ANIMATED FEATURE Will win: Spider-man: Across the Spiderverse Personal choice: The Boy and the Heron Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: N/A The insiders tell us that it is Spiderverse who will win at the end. Simply, many don't even watch Japanese animation, plus Miyazaki doesn't care about award circuit, not participating in campaigning. The result is clear... BEST FILM EDITING Will win: Oppenheimer Personal choice: Oppenheimer Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: N/A BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY Will win: Oppenheimer Personal choice: Oppenheimer Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: N/A No races in Film Editing and Cinematography. These two Oscars have OPPENHEIMER already engraved. Really can't argue with this. BEST VISUAL EFFECTS Will win: Godzilla Minus One Personal choice: The Creator Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: N/A I was so happy to have seen THE CREATOR nominated for Oscar. Nothing to be said here, Godzilla Minus One probably winning. BEST PRODUCTION DESIGN Will win: Poor Things/Barbie Personal choice: Barbie Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: Saltburn I am torn about this one. Personally I would have voted for Barbie, because that whole movie is Production Design on full display. I see the argument for POOR THINGS winning. It will really depend how much Academy really loved one of these movies. BEST COSTUME DESIGN Will win: Poor Things Personal choice: Poor Things Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: Saltburn I loved POOR THINGS costumes more than I loved BARBIE. I think Academy is more inclined to awarding POOR THINGS given that their costumes are in line what Academy usually awards. BEST MAKEUP & HAIRSTYLING Will win: Poor Things/Maestro Personal choice: Poor Things Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: Saltburn Now, this is a conundrum as both have some amazing makeup. Makeup usually goes with some acting category (like last year, THE WHALE winning Best Actor and Best Makeup). So, if Poor Things is winning 3 craft Oscars, it is not losing for Emma. And I am more sure it'll lose for Emma, plus there is BARBIE factor. So, basically POOR THINGS go for me anywhere between zero and 4-5 Oscars. BEST ORIGINAL SONG Will win: "What Was I Made For?" Personal choice: "What Was I Made For?" Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: "Can't Catch Me Now" This is one Oscar Barbie doesn't have to worry about. Both its songs are leading the pack. I am more inclined to Billie Eilish, but there is something in "I'm Just Ken" that I can see will draw a lot of voters. BEST ORIGINAL SCORE Will win: Oppenheimer Personal choice: Oppenheimer Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: The Boy and the Heron Ludwig Göransson has this in the bag and I find it rather undeniable. žGöransson is already an Oscar winner (BLACK PANTHER) and I find his work absolutely amazing. Happy for this one! BEST SOUND Will win: The Zone of Interest/Oppenheimer Personal choice: The Zone of Interest Should have not been nominated: N/A Should have been nominated: N/A This one is a tossup for me. I know Academy will give The Zone of Interest Best International Feature, but the Sound is another thing. Score and Sound don't usually go together but they can if the movie is sweeping. It really all depends how popular is THE ZONE with Academy. Hoping for THE ZONE, wouldn't be surprised with OPPY.

I haven't seen everything yet, will try in the next few days (still to see The Holdovers, Maestro and American Fiction, plus May/December, The Color Purple, and unfortunately it looks like there's no possibility to see The Boy and the Heron unless it is released in cinemas here), but my biggest differences are: Four Daughters for Best Documentary Feature; Mark Ruffalo for Supporting Actor; Past Lives or Poor Things for Best Picture (but I'm also OK with Oppenheimer winning)... not sure about the score.

DireWolfSpirit Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 So actually Scorcese work has notched more than a few wins, its not like hes gone totally un-awarded. I forgot about Raging Bull. Nevertheless KOTFM hopefully only gets the one nod for Ms Gladstone and the rest properly put to rest. Also agreeing with Best Score to Ludwig Göransson who is gold in all he touches apparently.
