 10th WOKJ Motion Picture Awards - Pre-announcement Thread
Here's a thread for speculation prior to the announcement of the noms as well as for me to drop tidbits as I keep tallying the votes.
BTW, more than one person does not know that is is SCORSESE, not SCORCESE
Also some tidbits:
- a certain summer blockbuster appeared on more than five ballots in the Best Picture line-up
- I know it seems like I am saying this every year, but there are some really really interesting races in MAJOR categories
- A certain film was mentioned as "Best Picture" on six ballots, yet received only ten points

Man of Steel probably got a lot of votes.
Gatsby looks like it got a lot of votes...

If its the blockbuster then it has to be Man of Steel. Gatsby isn't what I would call a summer blockbuster but I am sure it would have good amount of nominations in major categories.

I am hoping Gravity makes it for Best Picture. I wouldn't want MoS to be in BP category but it might sneak in. There might be a toss-up between Hustle and 12YAS I guess and there is a slight chance than Blue sneaks in for BP.

I also nominated Frozen for Best Picture....I am not sure many would have added it there given that it will surely win the animated category by a landslide.

 Re: 10th WOKJ Motion Picture Awards - Pre-announcement Threa
I wonder if KJ will nominate Clooney for Best Supporting Actor.

I hope 12 of White Guilt is nowhere near the BP line up.

 Re: 10th WOKJ Motion Picture Awards - Pre-announcement Threa
Unlike the close BP race between several contenders, the Best Director race was quite clear cut with the five nominees leading well above the rest and 17 (!) points separating the fifth nominee from the first runner-up.

I seriously considered it but wasn't sure many others would so I opted out. I did nominate it for Best Comedy (oh, excuse me, "Funniest Comedy," which I mostly rejected and just looked at as "Best Comedy" anyway  ) though. I thought it was really funny. I also nominated it for Best Adapted Screenplay and gave it 3 song nominations.
