Lol no it's definitely the other way around.

sadly I agree. the academy hates movies that make america look bad, and a slavery movie is pretty much the definition of that. see: argo winning over zero dark thirty and django unchained last year.

and gravity just isn't the type of movie they award. except it might win best director.

[Inception]

All the Gravity nominations remind me of Inception's, but at least Alfonso got his well deserved nom.

Nonetheless, there are still so many movies I need to check out. Embarrassing.

Gravity is going to sweep the technical awards, and Cuaron will win Director.

I still cringe at that because Zero Dark Thirty > Argo.

[LP54]

Wow that's amazing that Gravity and American Hustle are tied at 10 nominations.

I've seen all the nominees and honestly Roberts deserves to win. *shrug*

IA. I want Lupita to win because I stan for her, but Roberts is the only person in that category who brought it.

She has already started with that Taylor thing on the red carpet. People think it's her being 'cute' and 'funny', no what it is, is a desperate plea for adult Ritalin

I'm waiting for people to give her the Anne Hathaway cold shoulder

Didn't her dress split at SAG awards last year too? damn girl sure know many ways to get media to talk about her

Can't wait for that too, Anne is better than her though!

Lawrence in Winter's Bone > Lawrence in Silver Linings Playbook

I mean, I understand why Lawrence won but the Academy will always pay dust to performances like Jessica's in Zero Dark Thirty because they are not "showy" enough and I really don't understand that but whatever, I am a fan of Chastain and Lawrence but Jessica carried EVERY second of Zero Dark Thirty and slayed while doing so.

I still think Jennifer Lawrence's best performance is in Winter's Bone. I wish I'd see her like this more, I feel like I like her more as Katniss, too.

Oh yeah, Chastain was miles better but really, what killed her was 0D30's controversy, and honestly they would rather go with the sex bimbo than the baddass woman behind the capture of Bin Laden.

[Bad Wolf]

Leo still has a chance, I believe.

[MJANDKATYLOVER]

All deserved nominees.

I couldn't agree more, but the way everyone turned on her during last year's award season was so sad

And we will see what Jennifer pulls next at the SAG awards, it needs attention to survive .

I am still bitter about Queen Viola Davis losing to Meryl for The Iron Lady.

Hold on, was Pacific Rim snubbed on Visual Effects?!

[EarStyle]

So I Guess we can assume that Frozen will be winning the Best Original Song? Never heard it, but I know the soundtrack is killing right now.

[Achilles.]

This is the second year in a row that David Russell's film is the only one nominated in all 4 acting categories... And I feel like JLaw is again the most likely of the four (Bale/ Adams/ Cooper/ JLaw) to walk away with an award.
