It's now 2 days before they're announced. Who wants to guess who and what'll get nominated for cinematography, the acting categories, the screenplay categories, Best Director, and Best Picture?
Oscars are bullsh!t they rarely give oscars to movies real people see always some artsy fartsy crap with on and on dialogue. I'm not opposed to good dramas, thrillers, and such but the dramas and thrillers I like never get a mention or nod as for action flicks forget about it.
The Oscars don't often nominate things genuinely "arty" though, something like The Favourite for example is quite rare.
as long as Ricky Gervais gets to go up on stage and roast the hell out of those pretentious fools for a good solid 10 minutes, then they can give away their golden calf to whoever they want
We're talking about the Oscars, not the Golden Globes. Your question doesn't make sense. I never said I have anything against Knives Out.
