[demosthenes]

Come on Leo!

 

[strafer]

Come on Straight Outta Compton.

 

[Lord Virgin]

Come on Leo!

Fassbender gonna take it. As he should. Way better actor.

 

[maquiladora]

Let's go Mad Max Fury Road

 

[CassSept]

Go go Mad Max go!

Fassbender gonna take it. As he should. Way better actor.

No way, this is Leo's year. The category is relatively weak this year and it's his time overdue, with the way Academy works I would be shocked if he doesn't get it this year.

 

[Rodin]

Mad Max better win something. Best action movie i've ever seen.

Fassbender gonna take it. As he should. Way better actor.

Uhm no.

 

[MeanArrow]

At 5:30 a.m. PT, del Toro and Lee will announce the nominees in the following categories: Animated Feature Film, Cinematography, Costume Design, Documentary Feature, Documentary Short Subject, Makeup and Hairstyling, Original Song, Animated Short Film, Live Action Short Film, Sound Editing and Sound Mixing.

Still hurts :/


I just hope that Tom Hardy gets a Support Actor nomination, but I'm not sure how likely that is.

 

[generic_username]

Fassbender gonna take it. As he should. Way better actor.

He is a better actor overall. Just not this year though.

 

[Jigorath]

Fassbender gonna take it. As he should. Way better actor.

He is a better actor but he won't win this year. Leo is basically a lock. Fassbender will have his opportunity eventually.

 

[John Dunbar]

stallone is all i care about. get that oscar, rocky. but really, i think he might get nominated but don't think they will actually give it to him. it will be eddie murphy in dreamgirls all over again.

also, would be hilarious if dicaprio got snubbed. obviously won't happen, but it would be fun.

 

[jett]

I haven't seen The Revenant yet, but Fassbender was great in Steve Jobs.

 

[gamz]

Come on Creed!!!!!!!

Dark horse in the house!

 

[Bishop89]

poor leo

 

[Jigorath]

The stars have completely aligned for Leo this year. Article after article has been written about how much he suffered for the role, he's starring in an Inarritu movie (who the Academy currently LOVES), and the category is incredibly weak. Nobody saw Steve Jobs and Redmayne just won last year.

 

[jon bones]

really hoping Creed gets some love

 

[Mix Master]

Its Deakins Time to Shine
Although i Hope Fukunaga gets some love also.

...which will just make his eventual snub all the more outrageous.

Spoiler

he winnin

 

[Carbonox]

Stallone pls.

 

[lazybones18]

I pray for a surprise Best Pic nod for Beasts of No Nation, but I know that isn't happening

 

[shira]

Come on Leo!

[Farsi]

Sicario and Spotlight best picture nom.
Ruffalo(spotlight) and Carell(TBS) best supporting actor nom.
Coogler/Miller best director nom.
Depp(BM) best actor nom.
Vikander best actress(or supporting) nom for Ex-Machina

Eddie Redmayne getting zero nominations please.

that's all this man is asking for. Please Academy please. Redeem yourselves for snubbing Gyllenhaal last year.

Its Deakins Time to Shine
Although i Hope Fukunaga gets some love also.

I don't think CJF is eligible for a nom. The old people at the academy probably don't know what Netflix is.

 

[Cipher Peon]

Time zones make a fool out of me, yet again.

 

[D4Danger]

Roger Deakins will be nominated for Sicario

and then lose for the 13th time because the academy is a joke

 

[CoolOff]

Sicario and Spotlight best picture nom.
Ruffalo(spotlight) and Carell(TBS) best supporting actor nom.
Coogler/Miller best director nom.

Vikander best actress(or supporting) nom for Ex-Machina

Eddie Redmayne getting zero nominations please.

I'd love for them to snub The Danish Girl completely, and give Alicia Vik a nom for Ex Machina instead, but this is the Academy after all...

Spotlight has best picture on lock.

 

[CoolOff]

I don't think CJF is eligible for a nom. The old people at the academy probably don't know what Netflix is.

Didn't Beasts open in a few select theaters so that it would be eligible?

 

[Braag]

I love how sure some people are that Leo will finally get an oscar. The reactions will be hilarious once he gets snubbed again.

 

[Maxim726X]

... Really?

I mean, it was good. But best picture??

 

[Jb]

Roger Deakins will be nominated for Sicario

If there's one person I want to see come back with an Oscar it's Deakins. I'd love for Bridge of Spies to get a best pic nom too.

 

[CassSept]

... Really?

I mean, it was good. But best picture??

It's easily the frontrunner bro

 

[Farsi]

Didn't Beasts open in a few select theaters so that it would be eligible?

I think it did but I doubt the Academy will give it any love anyway. If they did though, it would be lit.

 

[Jigorath]

Who exactly are you expecting to win?

 

[Ridley327]

Didn't Beasts open in a few select theaters so that it would be eligible?

Yes, but it's going to be really hard for for it to shake the Netflix stigma when entire chains refused to run it because of it. There's a lot more business-minded mentality that pervades the voting bloc than you might think, and for a lot of people, the idea of streaming taking over like that is a confusing and currently unwelcome concept.

 

[Pachimari]

Is this starting in 55 minutes?

[GiantEnemyGoomba]

Sicario is fucking gorgeous and is definitely deserving of awards, but Chivo brought it for a third year in a row and he will win it.

Say what you want about The Revenant overall, but it is one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen.

 

[BowieZ]

Is this starting in 55 minutes?

Yeah I meant to be more on top of the updated time thing but I got sidetracked. Anyone know how to get one of those time remaining until things?

 

[Cerberus]

My predictions:


Best Picture
The Big Short
Bridge of Spies
Brooklyn
Carol
Mad Max: Fury Road
The Martian
The Revenant
Room
Spotlight

Best Director
Alejandro G. Inarritu, The Revenant
Tom McCarthy, Spotlight
Adam McKay, The Big Short
George Miller, Mad Max: Fury Road
Ridley Scott, The Martian

Best Actor
Bryan Cranston, Trumbo
Matt Damon, The Martian
Leonardo DiCaprio, The Revenant
Michael Fassbender, Steve Jobs
Eddie Redmayne, The Danish Girl

Best Actress
Cate Blanchett, Carol
Brie Larson, Room
Jennifer Lawrence, Joy
Charlotte Rampling, 45 Years
Saoirse Ronan, Brooklyn

Best Supporting Actor
Christian Bale, The Big Short
Idris Elba, Beasts of No Nation
Mark Rylance, Bridge of Spies
Sylvester Stallone, Creed
Jacob Tremblay, Room

Best Supporting Actress
Jennifer Jason Leigh, The Hateful Eight
Rooney Mara, Carol
Rachel McAdams, Spotlight
Alicia Vikander, The Danish Girl
Kate Winslet, Steve Jobs


Not sure about Room for BP, but I think it makes it if Tremblay is getting a nomination. Best Supporting Actor is too crazy to predict this year. I want to predict Todd Haynes for Director, but I don't know who to leave out. Inarritu is the only lock in that category. Vikander might get in for Ex Machina instead of The Danish Girl.

 

[wapplew]

Great year for movie!

 

[valkillmore]

Is it Leo's year? It's Leo's year.

Also lets see Sly Stallone get that bookend nomination, for the win.

I feel ashamed that I haven't seen one animated film last year.

 

[Solo]

If Leo wins it'll be yet another case of the Academy giving more of a lifetime achievement award for snubbing an actor repeatedly for other, better performances than for his performance in The Revenant.

 

[Ahiru77]

Come on Cranston!!!!!!!!!

 

[BowieZ]

Not sure about Room for BP, but I think it makes it if Tremblay is getting a nomination. Best Supporting Actor is too crazy to predict this year. I want to predict Todd Haynes for Director, but I don't know who to leave out. Inarritu is the only lock in that category. Vikander might get in for Ex Machina instead of The Danish Girl.

Tremblay getting in would be quite exciting. As would Sly. That's definitely the category to watch. The other categories are more intriguing about who they're going to leave out rather than decide to include.

 

[generic_username]

If Leo wins it'll be yet another case of the Academy giving more of a lifetime achievement award for snubbing an actor repeatedly for other, better performances than for his performance in The Revenant.

Who should win though? There has not been any major standout performances at least from the awards contenders I have seen so far.

 

[GiantEnemyGoomba]

I still haven't seen enough of the big movies this year (The Martian, Bridge of Spies, Steve Jobs, Carol, Room to name a few), but there were definitely some standout performances of what I did see. Leo and Hardy in The Revenant, Jason Leigh, Kurt Russel, and Goggins in The Hateful Eight, del Toro in Sicario, Alicia Vikander and Oscar Isaac in Ex Machina, Sly in Creed, and Edgerton in The Gift. Pretty great year for movies overall and I didn't even get to watch near as many as I should have!

 

[Solo]

Who should win though? There has not been any major standout performances at least from the awards contenders I have seen so far.

That's a good question, and I must admit to not having seen many of the other contenders. Maybe Leo IS the best out of the options. All I know is that he's done far better work in far better films in the past.

 

[Camwi]

Fury Road for Best Everything.

 

[Bishop89]

please give it to this man

 

[Pachimari]

The YouTube link in the OP brings me to the frontpage, is that because the stream isn't up yet?
