[Alison by Slowdive 26,148]

thank u for this thread <3

what's everyone's favourites out of the best picture noms? i've only seen don't look up lol - power of the dog is most intriguing so will watch it next  (and nightmare alley tbh bc the noir/gothic genre is just so sEXY) but what else is rly good? i need to catch up by march omg

[Frangipani 11,612]

I just want to know how much they paid for Don't Look Up to get nominated

[DCooper 36,916]

Kristen Stewart deserves the win 

 

Spencer should have also been nominated for Best Picture. The Green Knight for Best Picture as well, but that was never going to happen.

Nightmare Alley and Power of the Dog were my two faves of the noms I think. I haven't seen Licorice Pizza yet but that looks good too! West Side Story was also great if you like musicals.

CODA and Drive My Car are my two favs. I didn't like Belfast too much. All the rest are perfectly great but like nothing more nothing less you know? Very much regular studio Best Picture noms, which is fine yknow.

Your spill and a half. Spencer should've been in score, screenplay and at the very least costume design as well. Ugh. And The Green Knight at LEAST deserved cinematography. that one hurt. that score was my fav of the year and i didn't expect it to get it in but it still hurt

[baddisease 17,937]

The Eyes of Tammy Faye deserved more awards.

power of the dog, which I hope wins most of its categories (it’s so good, and the performances are incredible, gorgeous cinematography, great writing…has it all).

 

as I said in my status update Passing the biggest snub for me,  esp for leads Tessa Thompson & Ruth Negga.

 

want to see drive my car but other best pic noms don’t interest me (I liked don’t look up but LOL at the best pic nom). Lost daughter was terrific but imo power of the dog and Passing are both far better.

Thanks for making this, somehow this is the easiest to read page with all the nominations on the internet.

Love all the people that were nominated for Best Actress, just wish Rachel Zegler could have gotten a ceremonial nomination cuz she was so gorgeous in West Side Story. Mike Faist was really amazing too, but I remembered reading that he was going to be a long shot. 

Somehow I didn't see any of the films nominated for Best Score but I wanna listen to Don't Look Up since Nicholas Britell is fab.

No Time To Die has no business winning but the Oscars are kinda going the same direction as the Grammys anyway so who really cares.

No thoughts on the rest, sort of a slow year and I didn't see as much because of COVID still. 

[Super Movie 51,695]

I don't pay too much attention to awards season, but I'm honestly just so happy for Kirsten Dunst. She's been one of my favorite actresses for years and this nomination has been a long time coming

am i the only one that liked don't look up?

i did actually like it!!!!! it was cute and chaotic and did what it needed to do

It deserves Best Picture. It's a really good examination of evangelical and prosperity gospel from the standpoint of Tammy Faye Bakker.

[West Coast 45,795]

I feel like 'No Time To Die' has been out for like three years now, it's a dud.

I was just wondering the same thing. Saw it there other day and well... It wasn't completely terrible but, an Oscar? Okay 🥴

i loved it! I know it won't win but i'm so happy it got nominated

[the ocean 67,601]

i think the problem is that don't look up was trying to present itself as a serious movie when it's really not 

 

if you try rewatching it as a dark comedy or a satire though it's a much better experience

[ChaoticLipster 24,618]

Happy for some of the nominee’s..however. Lady Gaga not getting nominated is outrageous! Fucking Olivia Colman again, don’t get me wrong I love her and she was fantastic  in The Favourite etc ..but The Lost Daughter was so boring I fell asleep watching it and Olivia’s acting was average, she did her best but it honestly felt like she wasn’t even acting just strolling around the beach for 90 minutes. In fact the younger version of her (Jessie Buckley) was far far better in my opinion and is more worthy of an Oscar nom.

Ugh..when will they stop pampering Billie?…she’s had such a cliché career so far.  Will probably end with a Las Vegas residency just to top it off.

Billie is highly talented and her music is good

Oh she is I’m a fan and actually really like No Time to Die…just these types of artists get oversaturated then nobody wants them..e.g. Lorde.
