ST Why TFA might get an Oscar nomination for Best Picture....

Yes.

 

"Women always figure out the truth"

 

Yeah well Cameron is on his fourth(?) wife now so.

Wait…were he and Linda Hamilton ever married or just a thing?

 

Yes, they were married. Hamilton was his fourth wife until he met Suzy Amis Cameron, who had a small part in Titanic.

 

Man so now he's on his FIFTH wife.

I knew Amis and Cameron were married but didn't know what number she was.

Yowzers.

So there's been:

Gale Anne Hurd
Linda Hamilton
Katheryn Bigelow
and Amis

And an earlier wife?

 

Well, I hope he saved that Avatar money... that's a lot of ex-wives to send money to

 

The reason TFA has a chance is that the Oscars are an industry award. That means a lot of cigar chomping executive types get to vote on the result. And a movie that is the largest of all time (in all likelihood) will always figure in the minds of the bean counters.

Hello Avatar!

We've had some seriously great films this year, though. And a lot that should be in the running probably won't be. Only saw Sicario just the other night, but if that doesn't get a nod for cinematogrophy at least then the awards are a farce.

Then again...as we all know the awards are a farce.

 

Tfa's only been nominated for one of the precursor awards so I doubt it.

He had to pay Hamilton 50 million for the privilege.

 

Here's my prediction for what TFA gets nominated for:

Best Score
Best Sound
Best Sound Editing
Best Visual Effects

My prediction is that it wins one: Best Visual Effects.

 

I love it.

Face it, James. Your wives are better than you.

 

Isn't that always the case?

 

I kinda hope Harrisson Ford is nominated, along with Rey.
Unfortunately I think it won't win any of the major awards. It's not snobby enough for that.

 

Hell yes it should be nominated .

 

Mainstream films usually don't win the major gongs at the Academy Awards, unfortunately, although I hope Daisy can spring a surprise and become the Best Actress winner... But like I mentioned earlier, there is a good chance of TFA winning the technical awards though!

 

That's a fairly impressive list of top 10's and rightly so. Also third best reviewed wide release film on RT for the year if I'm not mistaken.

 

Nominations are up and no The Force Awakens for Best Picture.

Sorry.

 

The Millennium Falcon is gutted that her film didn't get the Best Picture nomination...

But I'm still happy for her as TFA is in almost all technical categories, as well as that beautiful soundtrack by John Williams getting a Best Original Score nomination!

and she was sitting directly in front of him. One of my favorite oscar moments ever.

 

Going forward, let's use the newer thread that went up after the nomination announcements came out. Locking.
