Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Was the only other Mexican in the audience Guillermo (Kimmel)? One shot of him was absurd enough, but they cut to him twice.

Yeah, I think if they could've found any excuse to not have him holding one they would've found it.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Coco deserves to be Best Picture. But at least they didn't try to get cute. Getting Best Song will be the make up win I think.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
I think so far the Academy has made more or less the right choices. Dunkirk got two, Rockwell won, Darkest Hour got makeup.

Well Magnus is happy.
The academy really wasn't impressed by the Apes trilogy.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Can't believe none of the three Apes movies has won VFX.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
I'm glad Blade Runner won effects. I thought for sure it was going to War as a culmination-like prize. It seems insane that not one of the films in the trilogy could win effects.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Blade Runner 2049 was the most Oscar-y of those visual effects nominees, so makes sense in that regard. Just a shame it was such a boring film. Also, now cinematography can go to Dunkirk

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Big for Dunkirk. It was dead in the water if it lost editing.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
No contest. Dunkirk was a masterclass in editing.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Given the way the film is constructed, it had to win editing. Does this mean it has a better chance at BP? Well, usually yes. But I don't see it yet. Although I am hopeful.
Three fucking OSCARS!!!! So happy

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Baby Driver shouldn't even be in any of the nominations. It is so stupid to have it there.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Hopefully this is finally Nolan's year and Dunkirk is the big winner tonight.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
Guillermo and Guillermo together! Dreams really can come true!
But this bit again (surprising unsuspecting people)...it was dumb last year and it's still dumb.

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
What happens when you win the Oscar. Is Rockwell sitting back in the audience holding it?

Re: 2018 Oscar Chat
They couldn't even get the screening to be full? Good sign for A Wrinkle in Time.
