I saw that Scar Jo was nominated for both leading and supporting roles same year. Is that the first time that's ever happened?
Nope, I know the same happened with Kate Winslet.




Same with Jamie and the Foxx

They should be more careful with the scenes they choose honestly. Not everyone watching will have seen all the films yet.


If you aren't trolling then I sort of respect how ridiculous this post is.

Its the celebration of the past year of films. Should the NFL hide the score when they show all the best plays of the year at the end of the season just in case you missed that game?
.

You think movies and sports events are equivalent? Lol ok. You do you.


It's entertainment. You chose to not seek the entertainment all year. Don't be annoyed you didn't keep up but watched a celebration of that and got spoiled about what happened when you weren't watching.

I didn't get pissed when I just checked who won the pebble Beach pro am.

I think you are more upset about than he was. He just said they probably shouldnt include scenes with critical events in them at the Oscars. Pretty reasonable.

I think Holly Hunter was nominated for both and won one as well.

I think Piano and the Firm in the 90s.

in before my own edit.

93. Nailed it.

Not upset at all. I just find it funny someone would watch the Oscars and feel an inkling of annoyance that they got spoiled about a movie the show is featuring.

Real talk, it says a lot about a person when you make a suggestion that literally doesn't change the oscars AT ALL for the worse but just asks them to be more considerate about possible game changing scenes and they find that a bridge too far.

I mean really? It hurts NO one but maybe saves someone from having a key scene spoiled and that is just too much to ask?

OK.

Anyway, back to the movies!

Honestly, that VFX win was the biggest WTF of the night so far.

The award is strictly for the VFX, regardless of the quality of the movie itself.

1917 was probably the least deserving of those nominees. Personally, I'd have given it to Lion King.
VFX is always such a weird category. Personally I wouldn't have given it to Lion King as they really didn't do anything that innovative or unique, it was simply an animated film.

I love the work that was done on TROS, and I'm still amazed how flawless the massive amount of VFX in Endgame was.
Say what? It was the most innovative of all the nominees. The movie was 100% CGI.

It would be simple to just show scenes that aren't critical to the story, no? The Oscars are, in some sense, also an advertisement to get people to rent or purchase a film they had not yet seen.

Fair point but again... Do other organizations bury the lede when announcing their winners? No, they promote it.

Based on the awards given so far, theres increasing buzz for Parasite upsetting 1917 for Best Picture. My last-minute prediction? Those two somehow split the vote... allowing for Once Upon a Time to take the crown.

Which makes it...an animated film. The way they did it working with the director was interesting (from speaking with a friend that worked on it) but the work itself really isn't anything we haven't seen before.

I tend to agree with you. To me its much harder to make a true live action film and mix in big time vfx seamlessly than it is to make an almost entirely animated film.

I've seen Joker twice, and at no point during either viewing did any part of the score resonate at all to me. I doubt I would recognize it right now if you played it to me.

That would be amazing, but if it's not OUATIH then I hope that Parasite wins it.
I'm rooting for Parasite but 1917 - as much as I enjoyed it - does not deserve to win it over most of the nominees.

This Hildur Gudnadottir lady is really talented. I remember the music from Joker being the thing that really stood out and stuck with me. I looked her up and listened to some of her other stuff afterwards. She's fantastic.

Bingo. You're lighting an entire environment and characters, rather than having to light, texture, and composite elements to match existing footage.

Great win for the Joker score. And a cool moment. Was that the first woman to win for score?
