hint: actors' taste often sucks
Call Me by Your Name has only grossed something like $7.5 M in N America

sufjan deserves to win the Best Song oscar for vetoing the "show up in the movie and perform the songs" idea

On Body and Soul is quite good.

I'm unclear on the rules here: when DDL decides two years from now to do another movie, does he have to return the retirement Oscar the Academy gives him this year?
― the smartest persin in the room (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:08 (six years ago) link
Gary Old Ham is winning, OL.
of course Varda made it; with the special Oscar, they found out who she was this year.
― ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:14 (six years ago) link
and DDL is fucking brilliant btw
I've heard. I can't wait to see it.

As for Christopher Plummer, well: the fastest turnaround for a nomination ever. It took some timing to fire Spacey and hire Plummer, and in this case showing up meant getting a consolation prize.
― morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 14:28 (six years ago) link
Once again, though, it's nice that the lateness/lastness of the Oscars in the awards calendar allowed for everyone to make the effort to see Phantom Thread.

Nick Pinkerton likes Downsizing.

"This is Meryl's first time in a Best Picture nominee since Out of Africa (1985)."

Welp, that more or less proves Mark Harris's point about the misogyny behind the term "Oscar-bait."
― Tarr Yang Preminger Argento Carpenter (Eric H.), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:49 (six years ago) link
I've not seen The Post but I hope it's more deserving of a nomination than Out of Africa was.
― call me by your name..or Finn (fionnland), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:50 (six years ago) link
If The Shape of Water deserved 13 nominations, The Post deserved 258 nominations.

Go Sufjan! When was the last great Oscar-nominated song? Must be 20 years ago maybe.. Elliott Smith's was pretty good. Feels most odd to truly love an Oscar-nom tune.
― piscesx, Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:58 (six years ago) link
oh xp
One nomination for The Florida Rascals, high five!
― ice cream social justice (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 23 January 2018 15:58 (six years ago) link
btw Alfred he's not wrong -- he means it's the first time she's been nominated AND the film was since OoA. RoboStreep was not one of the 3 acting nominees for The Hours (a film i have jubilantly avoided seeing).

That means that the winner of the Golden Bear, Golden Palm and Golden Lion all got Oscar Noms in their respective categories, which feels rare? Also, Wang Bing clearly got cheated out of a best Doc nom, then.
