Movies

so what we learn from this ( yet again ) is that much more than 5 pics will get nominated in coming years

Posted by: JMT-NL on Jan 24, 07:21 in response to shadowking's post It's kind of funny that 4 of the best pic nominoptions...

Its kind a weak, i think... but hey... it helps selling movietickets

many surprises in the oscars nominations ! Best one: Hell or High Water is nominated best picture JMT-NL Jan 24, 05:40

Based on the stock price, traders here (myself included) weren't surprised by its nomination... {nm} ~JPV~ Jan 24, 05:46

Well, after all the complaining, they sure got blacker this year. {nm} ndmaster Jan 24, 07:19

"Complaining" got some of these movies made. {nm} Antibody Jan 24, 09:18

Why the "quotes"? Protesting and ****ing about it is complaining. {nm} ndmaster Jan 24, 10:32

Raising awareness is not "complaining". The millions of protesters marching last Saturday are not "complaining". {nm} Antibody Jan 24, 10:50

semantics {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 24, 11:53

Were the nominations truly deserved or overreacting/affirmative action? {nm} fourstars Jan 24, 10:45

Affleck and Gibson got nominated, so art seemed to have prevailed over non-movie issues. {nm} Antibody Jan 24, 10:59

It was an underwhelming year all around. Not a single best pic is considered great. The best lead performances are forgettable. adrenalin112 Jan 24, 11:57

"alternative facts" {nm} slipping jimmy Jan 24, 14:15

such a mediocre year in movies. {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 24, 08:12

"Suicide Squad" gets an Oscar nom, and "Deadpool" doesn't! {nm} Peterlee Jan 24, 06:00

realistically, there wasnt anything deadpool should have been nominated for. (but yeah it is sad a bad film like SS should get anything) {nm} islander Jan 24, 06:18

Lets not overreact, it was just for makeup and hair. {nm} ~JPV~ Jan 24, 08:25

Yeah, the makeup and hair people were virtually the only professionals who did their jobs on that movie. {nm} CG63 Jan 24, 10:40

record tying 14 noms for la la land {nm} islander Jan 24, 06:01

other tidbits: viola davis 1st black actress with 3 career oscar noms. kubo gets a visual fx nom in addition to animated feature {nm} islander Jan 24, 06:16

also deserving {nm} lobogotti Jan 24, 06:24

deserving IMO {nm} lobogotti Jan 24, 06:23

someone should tell Variety's twitter account about HOHW best pic nod; not on their list {nm} ryeontherocks Jan 24, 06:16

with HOHW best pic nod, I got 13 wrong on nominOptions {nm} ryeontherocks Jan 24, 06:19

One nod for 'Loving'? That's too bad. {nm} ryeontherocks Jan 24, 06:56

I'm glad to see that the Best Picture Noms are box office successes & not indies that no one saw. {nm} Choray911 Jan 24, 07:05

oh great, one step closer to being as awful as the grammys! {nm} adrenalin112 Jan 24, 08:14

It's kind of funny that 4 of the best pic nominoptions will cash out below current price due to 9 gettting noms shadowking Jan 24, 07:11

so what we learn from this ( yet again ) is that much more than 5 pics will get nominated in coming years JMT-NL Jan 24, 07:21

We got a couple of nominations for Florence which is nice. Delighted for Ruth Negga too. {nm} RufusS Jan 24, 09:48

congrats! {nm} lobogotti Jan 24, 10:01

you're just saying that because she's a Ruth! {nm} slipping jimmy Jan 24, 10:47
