Sarcastic posts eagerly anticipated :)
I am surprised Bridge of Spies made the list....there wasn’t a lot of positive spin off people who’ve seen it.
#OscarsSoWhite: Not a single performer of color nominated for second year in a row
Mad Max got nominated??
I tried watching it on cable, it’s a god awful movie! I could barely understand what was going on.
The original Mad Max and Road Warrior were so much better.
I’ve only seen 2 of the films nominated and I go to the movies almost every week.
I thought Bridge of Spies was very good, but I only remembered Brooklyn when it was mentioned here. Brooklyn was a forgettable film. I had expected much more out of that film.
meh
Handy list. Just read from the bottom up for the order in which the show will give out the awards (Except for the token supporting role).
And they really need to go back to 5 best pic nominees.
Either the Martian or The Revenant will run away with everything. Straight out of Compton will be the “token” award for the “It’s too White” crowd at the Oscars. The lesbian movie will win Best Actress and Supporting Actress. See how much time I just saved you from watching?
I hope Jennifer Lawrence, Leo DiCaprio, Sylvester Stallone, and Kate Winslet all win. Doesn’t matter who you feel about Leo, he deserves the Oscar for that performance.
Brooklyn was a superb movie. Limited engagement. About a young Irish girl coming to NYC in the 1950’s.
Eddie Redmayne will win because he’s playing a transgender.
He won’t win. Eddie Redmayne is up for his role as a transgender person, so he’s a lock.
I thank you in advance!
Hollywood was successfully pressured to keep the documentary “Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief” from being nominated.
"I think you heard it here first... that in the categories of Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress, nobody gives a DAMN! Let's get these people off of here as quickly as possible, and get them out of here!"
It’s a throwback to when action films were actually action films with real people doing real stunts.
It’s a private vote. Whatever got the most votes was nominated.
They got a black host, what are they complaining about?
I agree 100%. I could only make it about 45 minutes before giving up. Thought it was horrible.
Eddie Redmayne is up for his role as a transgender person, so he’s a lock.
In other years, yes. He just won last year and he didn’t win the Golden Globe so I think he is going home without an Oscar this year.
