I would put it number 2 after ZDT. If I had my way I would give the acting awards to SLP and Best Picture to ZDT.
ZDT ain't winning shit.

Why did you leave off best supporting actress?
ZDT ain't winning shit.
Actually I agree. Loved Django, but I feel as if his Oscar movie is coming. (Pulp Fiction was it first).
Brave deserves to win.Kind of want to see "Wreck it Ralph" win best animated, but won't be too disappointed if Brave wins instead.

Holy shit Amy Adams is nearly 40? I thought she was in her 20s.
Brave deserves to win.
The Hurt Locker was a perfectly decent and enjoyable film, but it was most definitely not better than Avatar, nor Basterds, nor Up in the Air.
Enchanted which I've never seen was only 5 years ago; I presumed she was early 20s just like Anne Hathaway in Princess Diaries.Come on now when casting her in Enchanted was pushing it. Thats why she is not in romcoms.
Brave deserves to win.
Brave is worse than TDKR.
oh my...
Brave deserves to win.
I think the movie hits harder the more you relate to the characters.I saw a lot of my self in pat and that might color the movie for me. Also I enjoyed it more than TDKR which was kinda disappointing.Saw SLP today. Was merely okay. I liked the first half, but the second half was very by the numbers and lazy. Certainly far from bad, Cooper was very good (as was J law). About a 7/10. People shitting all over TDKR, but that movie was much more enjoyable. Not that they are similar in any way really. This movie just wasn't special in any way. How the hell was Weaver nominated for a supporting actress oscar?
Haven't seen many of the BP noms, but as of now. Life of Pi>Django>>Argo>Silver Linings Playbook.
I don't follow any of this shit anymore, but if I were to guess at something somehow beating Lincoln for the BP upset, it'd probably be Les Mis since AMPAS likes sappy melodramatic fluff and the occasional musical.
I dunno though, I'm hardly an expert in the politics of this shit, so. Quality wise, I would guess based on pedigree that Amour is probably the best of the bunch (who'd have thunk Michael Haneke of all people would ever make an Oscar-friendly film!), having not seen that nor Life of Pi nor Silver Linings Playbook and having no interest in the last.
I can't believe Lincoln is considered the Frontrunner right now. I wouldn't have thought that back when it came out. It's really nothing special. Honestly, The Avengers should've been nominated. It's better than most of the stuff on that list.
Avengers better then Lincoln...WTF. I want to hear why you thing Avengers is better than most of movies that got nominated?I can't believe Lincoln is considered the Frontrunner right now. I wouldn't have thought that back when it came out. It's really nothing special. Honestly, The Avengers should've been nominated. It's better than most of the stuff on that list.
Spielberg + DDL + Abe Lincoln = are you kidding me? It was practically a foregone conclusion. This stuff has nothing really to do with quality.
Well Spielberg hasn't had a BP winning movie since Schindler's List right? Also I can't remember a DDL movie ever winning Best Picture. I can't remember a Lincoln movie even being nominated. I guess together they're unstoppable for some reason.
Ah you're right. I agree.He means the nominations were a foregone conclusion. Spielberg actually being given an Oscar for a film he's nominated for is a rarity.

Also, just gotta point out this marks Williams' 48th Academy nom. Dude is a beast.
At this point I'm wondering if Spielberg is making movies solely to ensure Williams gets to 50.
Good lord am I hoping that Spielberg makes Of Gods and Kings, if only so I can get a Williams biblical epic score.
Sculli, I didn't even know I wanted such a thing until you just said it, and now I HUNGER.
YesYep. I also want to see Spielberg finally make a biblical epic. Close out the Jew trilogy right!
Golden Globes in four hours I think.
Aren't they in like fourteen hours?

I don't think she will win, but damn she was fine in that movie.Jennifer Lawrence, Silver Linings Playbook
