supporting actor

brendan gleeson, brian tyree henry, judd hirsch, barry keoghan, ke huy quan

Intermission

Why do they need a break

Brad snubbed.

Judd Hirsch?!!? Wow. Well deserved but didn't see that coming. Love him!

Two takes: they can't go 8 minutes without a commercial break? The constant break in the action is what has been killing the Oscars for years, making the show about 40% longer than it needs to be. I know, I know, Disney/ABC/Academy greed.

Also, the stratification continues: only certain categories get to have their nominees' names read out, in the "glamorous categories." The tech nominations get short shrift once again.

They need a break to get the press to stop giggling over My Year of Dicks and An Ostrich Told Me the World Is Fake and I Think I Believe It.

Judd Hirsch and Brian Tyree Henry are the biggest surprises so far, I guess. I'm disappointed for Dolly De Leon, who really deserved a nomination.

song

tell it like a woman, top gun, black panther, rrr, everything everywhere

documentary

all that breathes, all the beatuy and the bloodshed, fire of love, house made of splinters, navalny

foreign

all quiet (ger), argentina 1985, close (belg), eo (poland), the quiet girl (ire)

animation

pinocchio, marcel the shell, puss in boots, the sea beast, turning red

How many people does it take to write a song? Major bandwagon-hopping by performers who intuit that any song from certain films will stand a good chance of being nominated.

Lady Gaga + Top Gun is a bizarre combo.

Avatar got a Best Picture nomination?

Happy that after about two dozen Oscar prescursers there were some genuine surprises

Ruven Ostlend, Paul Mescar, Andrea Riseborough, Brian Tyree Henry, Judd Hirsch

wow OP wrote those before the presenters finished naming them.

Never heard of Triangle of Sadness until today. I googled.

Viola is not happy.

No I wrote them AS the presenters were naming them

I am accepting donations via venmo

No Best Director for Baz?

Everything Everywhere All At Once - 11 nominations

[quote] Avatar got a Best Picture nomination?

Got great reviews and people love it, same with "Top Gun".

That Riseborough campaign was so goddamn cringeworthy, I can’t believe it paid off. Justice for Deadwyler.

Aftersun's leading actor nominee, Paul Mescal. (pronounced MESS-kul)

[quote]Never heard of Triangle of Sadness until today.

It won the Palme d'Or.

EEAAO; Farrell, Yeoh, Quan, Bassett; Kwan & Scheinert; McDonough (original) and Johnson (adapted).

I read that the Riseborough campaign made Sally Kirkland cringe.

Variety's Oscar columnist is going to throw a fit over both Viola Davis and Danielle Deadwyler missing.

Everything Everywhere All at Once obviously had a great morning. The Banshees of Inisherin earned all of its possible nominations, too. The Fabelmans did really poorly in the craft categories, missing Cinematography and Editing.

[quote]No Best Director for Baz?

His wife got two nominations and she already has four Oscars to his none.

[quote]The Banshees of Inisherin earned all of its possible nominations, too.

I would have liked to see it pick up a Cinematography nod.

1/2 of supporting nominations went to people of color (angela bassett, hong chau, stephanie hsu, brian tyree henry, ke huy quan)

however only 1 lead nomination went to a person of color (michelle yeoh) while 1 went to a white hispanic (ana de armas)

I will always see Sarah Polly battling zombies at the mall in the "Dawn Of The Dead" remake.

I really am shocked that Ana de Armas and Andrea Riseborough got in instead of Viola and Danielle Deadwyler.

Wow, Women Talking was largely ignored. That's shocking since that movie just screams awards bait

I could go either way on Viola, but Deadwyler absolutely deserved it over Riseborough and De Armas.

Till was just badly marketed

[quote] No Best Director for Baz?

No. Thank god.

Women Talking was also poorly marketed, I only saw one trailer for it, I’m not sure it’s even been released wide yet?

[...]

Ana de Armas should absolutely not have been nominated for that piece of garbage. Neither should have Flopatar.

On Riseborough

I’m obviously ecstatic.

But bitch should still have been nominated for W.E.

Exactly, R53. That was just shameful.

“ “To Leslie” grossed just $27,000”

Jesus

They really hate giving the Best Actress category to women of color. Ana De Adams? Really.

OscarsSoAsian

The Woman King and Till completely snubbed is suspicious

#Oscarssowhite

I've never seen a panned performance like Ana's receive so many award nominations.

White actresses pleaded and praised for Andrea R to get an Oscar nomination. And they got what they asked for

Viola snubbed, Woman King snubbed. Till snubbed

I thought Triangle of Sadness was ultimately a failed screenplay and movie, but Oscar seems to disagree!

Not really R61. No one saw Till, and people are exhausted by Viola who complains constantly despite at the very top of the business. I can imagine being her PR or agent. What a nightmare it must be. Ana de Armas should absolutely not been nominated. Now, every actress is going to want to continue to work with that awful director since his movies seem to guarantee an actress a nomination at this point.

Everything Everywhere and Banshees are rare cases in which all principal performers received nominations and in which four actors from the same film are nominated

No Olivia Coleman? Pity.

Sunny Hostin on The View today will definitely express outrage over Danielle Deadwyler’s snub. Whoopi will probably not say much even though she was in the damn film with her.

Shunny Hoshtin

‘Everything Everywhere All At Once’ - 11

‘All Quiet on the Western Front’ - 9

‘The Banshees of Inisherin’ - 9

‘Elvis’ - 8

‘The Fabelmans’ - 7

‘Top Gun: Maverick’ - 6

‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ - 5

‘Tár’ - 5

[quote]No one saw Till

Even less people saw "To Leslie," it just so happens that the 4 people that saw it were all Academy members.

Everything Everywhere joins short list of 24 films with 11 Oscar nominations

A record has been broken. This is the longest Meryl Streep has gone without an Oscar nomination since the beginning of her career.

16 first time acting nominees

All lead actor are first time nominees

Everything Everywhere also very rare case of Oscar favorite released in early part of the year (March)

Only other example coming to my mind is Silence of the Lambs (January)

Oscar voters said one minority too many in the BA category

Jamie Lee Curtis?

Deadwyler definitely deserved a nomination over De Armas, but Riseborough absolutely deserves hers (I must be the 5th person to see To Leslie). She's an excellent actress who is a real chameleon. Davis' role in The Woman King was 2-dimensional at best - Thuso Mbedu was more impressive IMO.

Riseborough's nomination reminds me of the time Vera Farmiga got an unexpected (but well-deserved) nomination for the indie film Down To The Bone, where she also played a woman struggling with a drug habit. The film hadn't had much of a release, though I don't recall her getting a celebrity campaign.

I don't get the nod for Hirsch, who was his usual hammy self, but at least he was gone quickly. Paul Dano is more deserving from that film.

If Everything Everywhere wins I believe will be first win by film which premiered at South by Southwest as opposed to Fall Big Four?

One of the snubs appears to be the exclusion of Best Cinematography for "Top Gun: Maverick."

This is what GoldDerby said yesterday before the nominations:

[quote] Oscar predictions: Claudio Miranda (‘Top Gun: Maverick’) poised to fly away with second win for Best Cinematography

They weren't predicting just a nomination, they were predicting a win, and they weren't the only ones predicting this.

But nada. .

Bardo snuck in and took that nod

I’m rooting for Colin Farrell as Lead and Ke Huy Quan as Supporting.

I think the lady who played Abigail in Triangle of Sadness should’ve been nominated. She was the best part of the movie.

I think Cate Blanchett is going to win Lead Actress.

Black actresses will never get a grassroots campaign like Andrea did

Personally I’m happy to see Viola snubbed.

Keep my wife's name out yore fuckin' mouf!

Who would be the cinematography frontrunner now, All Quiet?

EEAAO is a media/film Twitter darling. Ke Huy Quan will be the only winner and it will be shut out everywhere else.

Doesn't Ana de Armas count as woman of of colour? Isn't she a LATINX BIPOC?

Congrats to Diane Warren who gets her 14th nomination. That's as many as Glenn Close and Amy Adams combined.

Everything Everywhere made $100 million at the domestic box office and is the fourth highest grossing of the best picture nominees

WOW ! I wonder if Whoopi will show up at 'The View' this morning, and if she does - at what lenghts will her cohosts go to kiss her ass about 'TILL' being completely snubbed ?

Let us not forget - Sara kept telling Whoopi she was hearing "Oscar buzz" for Whoopi and the film itself when it was released in October. She kept saying it on a regular basis (along with Sunny) - and even the guests who came on stage were parrotting that bullshit.

Let's see what they say today.

Sometimes I think that AMPAS is more corrupt than The Golden Globes.

Nepto granny JLC

R92, First words out of Whoopi’s mouth this morning:

“Congratulations to all the Oscar nominees this morning, although my movie was not nominated”.

I bet Whoopi had to shut down Sunny during the production meeting, telling her she couldn’t bitch about Deadwyler being snubbed.

I wonder if Andrea Riseborough will be a guest on The View.

Followed by:

"Sara and Sunny, you've been telling me that you were hearing 'Oscar buzz' about my performance and the movie itself. The movie I spent over a decade trying to get made. What the fuck happened ? "

Sara meekly responded, " I guess the voters in the Academy saw the movie. Your one powerful line 'He jus' goin' to visit his cousins' didn't move them to vote for you to get nominated. "

Why wasn't Banshees nominated for best foreign film?

R98: Academy rules dictate that any film primarily in the English language is not eligible for Best International Feature. This year, Ireland submitted as its entry the Irish-language film The Quiet Girl, which did get a nomination.

[quote]I think Cate Blanchett is going to win Lead Actress.

They aren't giving Cate a third Oscar where Michelle headlined the most nominated film this year, and happened to be fabulous in it.

The first actress of Asian descent to be nominated in the Best Actress category in almost ninety years!

The first being DL whipping girl Merle Oberon in THE DARK ANGEL.

Best Actress always goes to white actresses, even if they’ve already won before. I’m sure the same will happen this year. Poor Michelle.

Poor Michelle Yeoh*

I’m glad the actors branch of the Academy called bullshit on Carey Mulligan being placed in Best Supporting. This clearly would have been category fraud. I’m also glad She Said got entirely shut out. It was the biggest disappointment of all the films I saw last year.

Wow, I had totally forgotten about "She Said," r104.

This terrible song is going to win.

As long as that relentless mediocrity Diane Warren loses yet again I’ll be happy.

Yesterday, on THE VIEW Whoopi opened with a quick acknowledegement of the nominations and the nominees who have visited the show over the past year, mentioned that her movie received no nominations at all, and then began 'Hot Topics' without opening the coversation to other hosts. She didn't single out any nominee (not even Jamie Lee Curtis, first time nominee in 40 years, and regular favorite of 'The View').

Usually, whenever nominations are announced for the Oscars, Whoopi will kick off Hot Topics with the conversation about the nominees and what each host thinks of the nomineees. Especially the Oscars - they all chime in on who they 'knew' would get a nomination, who they were surprised with, who they were happy for, who they felt was snubbed. They then go on about the movies themselves - which were their favorites, which they hadn't seen yet but plan to see before the ceremony. It almost always comes off as an interesting conversation with different perspectives of the nominees.

This year it was painfully obvious how hurt Whoopi was with her passion project of the past ten years being 'snubbed'. She just wasn't having it.

I'm interested in how they will cover the Oscars the day after the ceremony (Monday, March 13) and if the topic will be ignored.

"Relentless mediocrity" is hilarious, r107, It could be a thread, "Who do you think is a relentless mediocrity?"

R108, the obvious question for Whoopi would be "If Till was such a passion project for you, where was your passion for it?" There wasn't much of a campaign for it outside of Deadwyler, and her campaign was really weak, even when there were warning signs that should have made her put the campaign into overdrive. Even Kristen Stewart of all people managed to do that after the SAG snub for Spencer.

In nearly every case, the nominees this year either did a ton of campaigning themselves or had people campaigning hard for them, like Andrea Riseborough or Brian Tyree Henry. I knew he was getting in when Jennifer Lawrence made her campaign into a promo tour for him.

I know we knock Viola Davis a lot here, but she knows what an Oscar campaign entails, and works for it. She promotes. She is present. She will camp out in front of every screening room in Los Angeles if it'll get her a single vote.

Whoopi's idea of promoting her passion project was to have every guest who came on since the start of this season (early September) come out to the table and praise her, making damn sure we all knew she was an EGOT winner. Every single black actor and actress under 50 had to come to the table and kiss her ass, mentioning her Oscar winning role in 'Ghost' made them want to be a movie star. And once the movie was released in October, she made sure everyone of her cohosts kept mentioning 'Oscar buzz' and 'amazing movie' ad nauseum, with Sara and Sunny being most guilty of this. (I lost count on how many times Sunny said she went to see the movie). And who can forget the critic from Daily Beast who said in her review of the movie that she was distracted by Whoopi's 'fat suit' she wore ? Whoopi went on the attack and corrected her - it was no 'fat suit' , it was 'really her'.

Pssssssst lots of people like Whoopi. Unclutch.

Psssssssssssst lots of people are weary of Whoopi, which is why they haven't supported her ' 10 year passion project' at the box office nor the Oscars. Clutch.

R102, R103, perhaps Cate will share her award with Michelle? Or give it to her?

This is the tightest Best Actress race in a long time and Cate is losing the momentum despite a lot of desperate press attempts. Sentiment is leaning to Yeoh. She carries the entire movie movie on her shoulders and it would be ridiculous if the film wins BP (which is most likely happening) and she doesn’t. Cate could never do EEAAO, but Yeoh (and many others) could have pulled off Tar. That should be the determining factor.

Tar has no shot at BP so Cate might win for the film. They like to spread it out. Also preferential ballot favors her if older voters don't like EEAAO.

Whoopi needs to stop farting on the set of her show. The first couple of times it was funny. We get it, women fart too. But this recent one shows that some women have a frat boy sense of humor too, and it’s not funny anymore. She’s a gross old woman.

[Quote]Viola is not happy.

but I'm thrilled.

R115 What are you talking? Cate also carries the entire movie. I mean she's in every scene for two and a half hours. And no, not many others could do Tar.

Please. Anyone could do Tar. A couple of conducting lessons and you’re fine. Cate could never pull off Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or EEAAO in a million years.

R120 Who said she could? What does CTHD has to do with the subject? And no, anyone couldn't do Tar. You are delusional.

[quote]What are you talking? Cate also carries the entire movie. I mean she's in every scene for two and a half hours. And no, not many others could do Tar.

Was anyone still awake after the two and a half hours?

R122 Yes

R115, but it isn’t, Blanche, it isn’t. Dolt.

Cate’s not winning

Jessica Lange could have done Tar if she were 15 years younger.

R126, Ahem!

R122 no. At least those that bothered to see it which was pretty much no one.

Best Actress will go to Michelle especially after this Oscar Nomination fiasco that denied two WOC nominations. The academy won’t want riots

Tar streaming on Peacock now.

[quote]Jessica Lange could have done Tar if she were 15 years younger.

Jessica couldn't do "Predatory lezzer on the prowl" in a believable way.

Tar was a Glenn Close role.

R125 = Andrea R.

[QUOTE] Best Actress will go to Michelle especially after this Oscar Nomination fiasco that denied two WOC nominations. The academy won’t want riots

I really don’t understand this reasoning. Who’s to say that Viola and Deadwyler weren’t #7 and #8 in the final tally? Maybe Olivia Colman was 6th place.

Thanks R130 - I watched TAR.....whew!

Watched part of "Elvis" this afternoon on HBO. I can't understand how anyone saw anything Elvis in this kid.

R135, I could only tolerate 45 minutes of “The Banshees of Inisherin”.

R134, is that a good whew or a bad whew? Im about to watch this movie right now. Is it worth it?
