there’s still flaws as with any awards body but they’re showing themselves to be better and more progressive than the other bodies now, which is only a good thing
Yep. I’m so glad. Good art needs to be recognized. Definitely heading in the right direction after the utter disappointment that was 2019. Hope they keep it up.
the lead-up to the lakeith stanfield nomination reaction was legit the most tense thing i've witnessed this year. was worried y'all weren't gonna make it.
I was so shocked by that. I just figured he wouldn’t get nominated since he wasn’t nominated in any of the other awards. And why tf is he a supporting actor?
@@michaeledgerton3508 I have no idea. I don't think *anyone* on Gold Derby was predicting that, because he was campaigned in lead. All the 'For Your Consideration' ads were for lead.
Sometimes the Academy does strange things like that. This is like when Kate Winslet submitted for Lead Actress in 'Revolutionary Road' and for Supporting Actress in 'The Reader' and the Academy said nope, we'll put you in Lead Actress for 'The Reader' 🤭
I wasn’t a fan of Mank, but for a film about screenwriters not getting credit to get snubbed in the screenplay category but lead in nominations is literally the definition of irony.
@@Bia-bm9gn WRT means 'With Regard/Respect to' - so Rash seems disappointed as it's only diversity when it comes to race and gender but not other things like Kronenberg, Non Oscar Bait, and Horror
@@WhatSmada oh yeah, I totally agree but I think that it changed a lot in the last few years, so I’m taking it as a win. I hope it keeps getting better and better, I would love to see ‘non-tradicional‘ and foreign films get more love from the Academy! I just think they’re going the right way :)
I love how almost every single other reaction to the nominations has the person being like "I'm really sleepy it's so early", and then there's you two going absolutely wild. This was so fun to watch.
It's been that way since the 1980s. "The Thin Blue Line" and "Roger & Me" were the front-runners but didn't get nominated in the '80s. Same with "Hoop Dreams" in '94.
It’s not exactly the same, Amazon campaigned the shit out of Palikowski. The studio behind Another Round was pushing Mads for actor but somehow that backfired and it got Director instead lol
I really think that Mads makkelson was 6th. I predicted him in 5th and yeun in 6th place, coz the academy never nominated an actor with Asian background to this day but finally its over and Ahmed had Asian background, too. So happy. With youn 3 are nominated. Best nominations in a very long time. Very diverse and many good surprises, but Lindo is more supporting as laKeith I think. But overall great nominees.
With her eighth nomination, Glenn Close becomes the fourth actress with most Academy Award nominations after Meryl Streep (21 nominations); Katherine Hepburn (12 nominations) and Bette Davis (10 nominations). Also, she becomes the living actress with most Oscar nominations without a win and the second living actress with most nominations after Meryl
I LOVE these “The Father” nominations. Honestly made my morning. Mostly happy with these nominations! It would have been cool to get “Another Round” in Picture!
I really like it when nomination reactors can say out the 5th nominee after the 4th nominee had been announced. It really proves that their knowledge of the award season is at the tips of their fingers.
They're finally here!!! I love that Judas and Sound got in Best Picture. The sad part is there's no race or speculation, Nomadland and Zhao are winning without a doubt
@@sherrigrant573 wait till next year oscar It will be a wild ride because the film we have this year example is House Of Gucci (Ridley Scott) Dune (Denis Villenauve) The French Dispatch (Wes Anderson) Nightmare Alley (Guilermo Del Toro) In The Heights (Jon M Chu) West Side Story (Steven Spielberg) Eternals (Chloe Zhao) Respect (Liesl Tommy) Elvis (Baz Luhrman) Don't Look Up (Adam McKay) Luca (Enrico Casarosa) Raya And The Last Dragon (Don Hahn & Carlos Lopez Estrada) Encantp (Byron Howard & Jared Bush)
@@m.syauqiabdurahman2798 also Dear Evan Hansen which release in September. Next years Oscars are gonna be crazy. So many potentially great films releasing this year. Killers of the Flower Moon may be releasing this year as well and that is Martin Scorsese. So much to look forward to this year for movies. Also, depending on the reviews for the new bond film that may be something to look at at least for some Oscars such as best song.
There was 0% chance that The Father was going to miss. Screener issues are for the guilds, never for the Oscars. And if they loved Amour, of course they were going to go all in for The Father.
yeah but what's surprising is that The Father hasn't been doing well except for BAFTA, no globe win, no critics choice, no sag ensemble nominaton, multiple snubs from guilds
I jumped when they called Vinterberg’s name, having switched from Sorkin to him at the last minute. Too bad I had Rahim and Foster in instead of Oldman and Seyfried...
@@pb.j.1753 Taron and Awkwafina won the GG in the lesser musical/comedy category, which has seen many people failing to get the Oscar nomination. On the other hand, nobody has missed Oscar supporting actress after winning the Globes since 1977, which is why the nearest precedent to Foster was indeed only Aaron Taylor-Johnson
I keep replaying the Lakeith Stanfield part at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="185">3:05</a> because Brother Bro’s shriek is one of the funniest moments from these reactions
@@pb.j.1753 not yet but he's one of my favorite directors of all time, and since most people were predicting it to win the category the snub was definitely a shock
Would’ve been better if he’d actually recognized that later in the vid, you can see multiple times he should’ve noticed films getting snubbed by name alone
@@rangergrrrl agreed; you’d think they’d start writing this stuff down in advance (at least that’s what I do). You gotta have a list of every major possible nominee in each category so you know immediately who’s been skipped over and don’t have to realize 10 minutes later like they do
@@Lamidemonami7891 I guess we're both online. Funny. I love these guys, and the alphabetical order thing is an annual part of the fun, but I've thought the same thing: have a list in front of you, dudes! But maybe they'd think it would take away from the spontaneity or something. It's gonna be a looooooong wait until Jan-Feb when the new reactions happen...
A film can have multiple leads, but it CANNOT only have supporting roles. Lakeith Stanfield nomination is yet another example of nonsense category fraud. Can you imagine if Thelma & Louise had not entered anyone for lead actress?
I agree. Judas wasn’t an ensemble film. They campaigned Lakeith in lead actor and then shoved him in supporting at the last second. It’s unfair to actors who are actually playing a supporting character. If you’re in over 50% of the film, you’re not supporting
@@notordinarynothing Trial 7 was too broad of a cast to have anyone considered lead. Both Kaluuya and Stanfield exceeded the 45% screentime mark, which is acceptable for lead acting caregories
I just gotta appreciate how, with other reaction videos saying shit like "I got no investment in this category" for anything below-the line, we always have The Oscar Expert and Brother Bro losing their minds over everything from Best Picture to Costume Design. Never change.
Maria is competitive win and no one can deny that, girl made history. And it wasn't Swankie, Olivia Cooke or Yeri han but Lakeith the surprise nominee!
There was no way Yeri Han can penetrate that invincible top 5 best actress. Lakeith made a much bigger impresson on viewers than Swankie or Cooke, and supporting actor is up in the air with only 3 locks so it allowed him
They openly and publicly campaigned Stanfield in lead (which is why he was not even on Goldderby’s top 50 odds). It must have been write-ins, or the ballots guy accidentally (or not) writing his name on the ballots
Nomadland is winning picture. This confirmed it. No film has lost Picture while winning both Director and Screenplay since Brokeback Mountain (the homophobia of it all) which was BEFORE the preferential ballot. With no real competition in that Adapted Screenplay category (The Father wont beat it, and Miami won’t win without a Picture nomination), Zhao’s double win will seal the deal. UNLESS theres a major upset in Adapted Screenplay and something not nominated for picture wins (last time this happened was in 2005 w/ Eternal Sunshine winning Original but that was back when only 5 films made it to Best Picture).
They could split it. I think "Judas & the Black Messiah" or even still "Trial of the Chicago 7" could potentially take the top prize. Even "Promising Young Woman," but I doubt it.
@@bryanismyname7583 absolutely. Just that w/o Nomadland losing the Adapted Screenplay award, it is extremelyyyyyyy unlikely that anything else will win BP at that point. But, stats are meant to be broken and the Oscars aren't a straightforward math equation, so fingers crossed the remaining guilds deliver and shake this BP category up so that it's a much more exciting Oscar sunday.
TBH she is best actress up for nomination in either the leading or supporting categories, and Nomadland was great in considerable part to McDormand's ability to both transform into a fictitious character we would swear is real.
Pretty great nominations this year tbh except the fact that 'Never Rarely Sometimes Always', 'First Cow' and 'I'm Thinking of Ending Things', three of the best films of the year didn't get anything, they were never expected to anyways. And Delroy Lindo being snubbed. Apart from that, it's been a great year. There are minor quibbles like Chicago 7 for cinematography, Close for Hillbilly Elegy and Borat for screenplay, but I'm overall very happy with these noms. Excellent best picture line up with the exception of Chicago 7.
It’s amazing how well Judas did. It didn’t really take off for most of awards season (aside from Kaluuya), then it ends up getting 6 nominations including Best Picture (!) And who would have thought that it would get screenplay over Mank?
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1084">18:04</a> Challenge accepted! At the 78th Academy Awards both Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon were nominated for Walk the Line, without a Best Picture nomination.
with Witherspoon winning, obviously. And at the 68th Nicolas Cage won and Elisabeth Shue was nominated for Leaving Las Vegas. Again no best picture nomination.
1.) Lakeith Stanfield case is similar to the ones of Keisha Castle Hughes (The Whale Rider) and Kate Winslet (The Reader) where Academy voters reject studio placements and place a performance in a category of their own wish. Where Hughes and Winslet went from supporting to lead at the oscars, for Stanfeild it's just the opposite. 2.) Does this mean vote splitting between Kaluuya and Stanfield or is Kaluuya like Octavia Spencer (The Help) who survives vote splitting?
Spencer sweeped from GG to Oscars. She had zero competition so I don't see the parallels here. I mean there was no sign that Chastain was getting any votes.
