Yes, we do.
Yes, we do.
Personally I can't fathom the lack of love for Miles Teller. He didn't even get nominated by any critics circles, and his performance was Natalie-Portman-in-Black-Swan level.
I would never argue that Whiplash isn't well crafted. Chazelle was robbed of a Directing nomination.
I haven't seen Leviathan (yet), but, between Foreign Language Film and Cinematography, Ida needs to win something.
I think Boyhood is better than Whiplash because, as sharp and thrilling and well-crafted as the latter is, Boyhood's achievement was greater — it did things no other movie has ever done, as well as things no other movie has ever done this well. It devoted itself to capturing the deceptively humble matrix of the…
If that's Best Male Vocal Performance, I agree 100%. Otherwise, CATE FUCKING BLANCHETT.
Not to mention that there wasn't anything in the footage that could really disprove her claim.
I loved Guardians of the Galaxy, but…
Motion Capture and Voice Acting categories aren't necessary; all the Academy has to do is get their heads out of their asses and acknowledge such turns in the existing acting fields. Same goes for Animated Art Direction.
The character's name is Draper. They're exhibiting his clothes. Won't anybody make a pun?
Wow, I didn't realize Paul Haggis had gained so much weight. The failure of Third Person must have hit him pretty hard.
I like how the expression "Michael Bay Benghazi thriller" is so ludicrous that it dispenses with the need for a deliberately ironic headline.
The only context in which that's justifiable is if the plot is a manifestation of the dreaming character's inner struggle or something, but even then it's only digestible with a heavy dose of self-awareness, and even then it's extremely lazy writing.
Steven Levitan: the only guy who can do a half-hour advertisement on his show and try to pass it off as respectable storytelling with a straight face.
I can't believe they awarded The Big Bang Theory over Gone Girl.
I thought Interstellar was a masterpiece. I'm not even embarrassed to say it.
Morten Tyldum now has more Best Director nominations than Tim Burton, Jim Jarmusch, Guillermo Del Toro, Christopher Nolan, David Cronenberg, Spike Lee, Brian De Palma and Terry Gilliam combined.
Or Iñárritu's. Which is great because I'm cool with either of them winning.
Yes, and so does Riva. Both are great, really, but I think Riva's performance is just on a different league.
I didn't fancy Holy Motors much back when I watched it, but given the amount of retroactive praise it's been getting, I might have to see it again. Really don't think it was better than Amour, though. It felt somewhat like a director's showcase.
