I'd rather dip my bollox in batter and then deep fry them in hot oil, than watch this Weinstein lovers gathering.

Annouced today.

Bit of a dry year, as expected. I'm hoping Promising Young Woman does well and that Chadwick gets the oscar.

Need to watch the others though, I think I'll watch Sound of Metal on Friday since it's on Amazon Prime, I believe. Mank holds no interest to me, but I'm definitely interested in seeing Minari and Nomadland as well. I imagine I'll get around to the rest at some point too.

The leading nominees:
10 nominations - Mank
6 - The Father
6 - Judas and the Black Messiah
6 - Minari
6 - Nomadland
6 - Sound of Metal

The Father Is the only movie I haven’t seen. Might check it before the show. . Judas and Sound of Metal are my faves from the list. I love the diversity of the Best Actor category too and two deserving female directors for the first time ever.

Chadwick winning would be a really emotional moment and the performance deserves it too.

Not heard of Promising Young Woman before now and it looks like an interestingly different character to see Mulligan in. I'll have to look out for it.

It's amazing, you should watch it if you get the chance.

Is it on a streaming service?

...I’ve barely seen any of these, I’ll see if I can find a way of watching some before the awards...Marsh, let me know what you know when you know it...it’s good to know, you know...?..

Prime, if you have a VPN but it's not officially released in the UK yet.

I'm glad to see big franchises and Disney have been overlooked :love: I hope that era of Big Hollywood will sizzle out before long!

Superheroes have more representation in the Razzies than the Oscars :joker: Though that's Wonder Woman 1984, which was actually good!! If anything from that milieu deserves a Razzie it's Birds of Prey...

Out of the Best Picutre nominess, Mank, Ma Rainey and Trial Of The Chicago 7 are all on Netflix, Sound Of Metal should be on Amazon Prime.

Nomadland isn't out on Disney+/Star till April 30th and for some reason The Father isn't out till June 11th.

:joker:

Blockbuster franchises (Lord of the Rings aside) have rarely been Oscar darlings so not sure why you would have expected to see an MCU or Disney film with a big presence outside of maybe a VFX nod.

...oh thank you so much, Nick...:hug:...I’ve seen Trial of the Chicago 7 and I’ve watched part of Ma Rainey, so I will finish that soon...I was enjoying it, I just got distracted and didn’t get back to it yet...hmmmm, I guess that I will watch Mank but it didn’t appeal to me from the trailer so I haven’t watched so far...but I didn’t realise that Sound of Metal was on Amazon so I’ll go check that out tonight...I don’t have Disney so I’ll have to see if I can find other ways to watch some as well...really thank you, Nick...:love:..

narcissistic self promotion

vile

Watched it. :omgno:

....well that’s not quite enough information for me to watch it, mister...

I love Gary Oldman. Hope he wins.

Definitely watch it. The third act. :eek: I'm not going to say anything about it as it would spoil. :laugh:

...do you have any ideas of how I might be able to watch it, Marsh...I don’t think that I can download anything onto an iPad...

I torrented it. But apparently it's coming to Amazon Prime in April.
