    No nomination for Best Cinematography (The King's Speech over Potter? LOL)

    But anyway
    2 Oscar nominations!
    That's good.
  • blackvenomblackvenom Posts: 3,257
    WHAT?
    THE SOCIAL NETWORK is nominated for Best Cinematography?
    Over Potter, 127 Hours and Shutter Island?
    WTF.

    The social network need to die!!
  • blackvenomblackvenom Posts: 3,257
    Deathly Hallows, Shutter Island and 127 Hours have a far better cinematography than The King's Speech.
    I didn't say it's bad, it's wonderful actually. But there are films with better cinematography.
    But I accept this nomination.
    What about The Social Network? LOL

  • [Deleted User][Deleted User] Posts: 3,605 ✭✭
    but siriusly how the hell could they not nominate the score
  • greggreg Posts: 737 ✭✭✭
    Yeah and WHAT ABOUT THE FU**ING CINEMATOGRAPHY IN THE SOCIAL NETWORK???? IT WAS EXTREMELY ORDINARY... DID THE ACADEMY JUST SAW THE LAST SCENE WHERE HARRY AND DOBBY ARE ON THE BEACH? IT'S SPEECHLESS!

    And Harry Potter should have been nominated for Sound Mixing and/or Sound Editing, Best Original Score and Best Make Up
  • CarneCarne Posts: 1,928 ✭✭✭
    but siriusly how the hell could they not nominate the score
    Because it isn't anything special compared to the other nominees.
  • greggreg Posts: 737 ✭✭✭
    Best original score for The Social Network (the cheesy five piano notes that we heard during all the movie) over a wonderful, original and poignant score for Harry Potter?? Let me piss in my pants XD

    listen to rons speech and say that again
  • greggreg Posts: 737 ✭✭✭
    OMG Nolan not nominated o_O
  • blackvenomblackvenom Posts: 3,257
    A few notes from me as well...

    -Black Swan snubbed in Best Original Screenplay
    -Christopher Nolan snubbed in Best Directing and Inception snubbed in Best Film Editing
    -Lesley Manville snubbed
    -Ryan Gosling snubbed
    -Andrew Garfield snubbed
    -Deathly Hallows snubbed in Cinematography, Sound and Score
    -TRON snubbed in Visual Effects and Art Direction
    -Shutter Island, The Ghost Writer, Scott Pilgrim and Never Let Me Go completely snubbed


    Aside from these I'm happy for:
    -Winter's bone for BP
    -Michelle Williams
    -John Hawkes
    -Javier Bardem
    -Another Year's Best Screenplay nod
    -Deathly Hallows scoring 2 nominations
    -Hailee Steinfield


    So we have:

    PHILOSOPHER'S STONE: 3 nominations | Best Original Score | Best Art Direction | Best Costume Design
    CHAMBER OF SECRETS: 0 nominations
    PRISONER OF AZKABAN: 2 nominations | Best Original Score | Best Visual Effects
    GOBLET OF FIRE: 1 nomination | Best Art Direction
    ORDER OF THE PHOENIX: 0 nominations
    HALF-BLOOD PRINCE: 1 nomination | Best Cinematography
    DEATHLY HALLOWS PART 1: 2 nominations | Best Art Direction | Best Visual Effects

    I'm happy that DH got 2 nominations...I'd like it to get 3 more (especially Cinematography), but it's better than nothing. 2 nominations since 2004 with PoA. And in two very competitive categories. That's good. Let's see how many nods Part II will grab.
  • greggreg Posts: 737 ✭✭✭
    Okay seriously... Inception not being nominated for Best Editing is a crime
  • RichardRichard Posts: 48,703 mod
    Ok guys what matters not are the academys what truly matters is how you feel about the movie :)
  • greggreg Posts: 737 ✭✭✭
    Lol thank Richard for this philosophy sentence
  • RichardRichard Posts: 48,703 mod
    Lol thank Richard for this philosophy sentence
    Anytime :)

  • CarneCarne Posts: 1,928 ✭✭✭
    Maybe DH2 will get 4 nominations, so it beats PS :D?
  • HessHess Posts: 1,734 ✭✭✭✭✭
    man Im tired of The Social Network too, Fincher's work is so overrated for me.

  • aaronaaron Posts: 20,950 mod
    Wow, Art Direction AND Visual effects. Finally, a good combo.

    And How to Train Your Dragon got nominated for Original Score.

    AND Inception + Andrew Garfield were snubbed. Wow.

  • [Deleted User][Deleted User] Posts: 3,605 ✭✭
    dh2
    best effects
    art direction
    score
    and best picture
  • [Deleted User][Deleted User] Posts: 3,605 ✭✭
    and best director
  • RichardRichard Posts: 48,703 mod
    Is there a chance DH would win any of those 2?
  • [Deleted User][Deleted User] Posts: 3,605 ✭✭
    incepshit will taker visual effects but dh1 will win art direction b/c i have no idea what that means
  • RichardRichard Posts: 48,703 mod
  • The Best WizardThe Best Wizard Posts: 1,090 ✭✭✭
    I think is great Deathly Hallows has two nominations. The Visual Effects nomination is well but I expected that they nominated for the great score and not for the art department.

    In my opinion the score is great, it had not a big role in the movie but it was present at the same time (not the extreme of HBP or COS)
  • CarneCarne Posts: 1,928 ✭✭✭

    Uhm, what do you mean by this? Inception was fantastic.
  • RichardRichard Posts: 48,703 mod
    Dh has to win ONE [-O<

    EDIT: Nevermind. Inception was nominated for Sound Editing, not Film Editing. I get those confused.

  • [Deleted User][Deleted User] Posts: 7,344 ✭✭✭✭
    Well, I hope DH wins at least one.
    But I have a feeling it won't :(
  • greggreg Posts: 737 ✭✭✭
    Mila Kunis is a big snub too :(

    I think Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II will have nominations in:
    Best Visual Effects
    Best Art Direstion
    Best Music Score
    Best Sound Mixing
    Best Cinematography
    Best Make Up
    Best Costume Design (maybe)
    Best Picture (maybe not but certainly have a chance)

  • RichardRichard Posts: 48,703 mod
    The Town should have been nominated for best picture.

    Wow, snubbed from Cinematography and Score.

    You think they know both Serra and Desplat will have their work shown in Part 2, so they figured they will wait for next year to give both noms(and wins :D)?

    The King's Speech is an Oscar bait film, that's why his score got nominated.

  • chace483chace483 Posts: 1,026
    The kings speech is way overrated. Its a great film, nothing OMFG! THAT WAS AWESOME!
    I was expecting Black swan to get more noms, but oh well. And Inception is overrated, I can't believe the acclaim and noms it's getting.
  • chace483chace483 Posts: 1,026
    Woah, getting fierce, are we? I was simply stating an opinion. Dude.
  • chace483chace483 Posts: 1,026
    I know he is, but at least im not directing my negative staement at him personally.
  • blackvenomblackvenom Posts: 3,257
    Jason exactly...
    I think that the Academy knows that Desplat and Serra will work on Part II which will be the Oscar-bait film of the franchisee. They preferred nominating Desplat for his King's Speech score, due to the Oscar-bait and the same thing happened with the Social Network and King's Speech Cinematography nods.
    I think that DH1 was very close to top 5 in both categories, but just missed them.
    I think they wait for Part II. :-)

    I agree with you, blackvenom. And i also think that Rickman and Fiennes could be nominated for best actor and best supporting actor. So, DH2 could reach 9 nominations: Vfx, sound, cinematography, score, make up, art direction, sound mixing, best actor [Ralph Fiennes] and best supporting actor [Alan Rickman]

    I would like that. Snape does have a bigger role in DH2, so it's possible. And if what people on set said about Fiennes performance during the battle is true, I can see that as well.

    From the both of them, Rickman has a better chance though.

    The Academy come off as royal British oldies. Therefore, they pick the film which exudes their style: The King's Speech.

  • JasonJason Posts: 7,279 ✭✭✭✭✭
    You think they will have those sneak peaks during the credits of the show? Maybe have one for Deathly Hallows Part 2? They did it 2 years ago for HBP:

    What's been said about Ralph's performance?

    When he gives his 'speeches', everyone on set was frozen with awe. Something like that, don't quote me. :P

    Full list can be found here- http://oscar.go.com/

    A few notes...

    -No directing nomination for Nolan?! What a bunch of B.S. Well, I'll just keep reminding myself they never recognized Hitchcock either.

    -LOVE the strong presence of True Grit, though the somewhat unexpected direction nom for the Coens comes at the expense of Nolan.

    -Sad to see Affleck's great work for The Town snubbed. I knew a directing nom was a longshot, but really thought it was gonna get in there for picture. Instead they went for the over-rated critical darling Winter's Bone, which got none of the guild precursor nominations btw...ugh

    -Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 got a couple nominations; best art direction and visual effects Would've liked to seen it for score and cinematography also, but can't have everything now, can we? :p

    Nolan not being nominated is criminal. I guess Inception directed itself. (shame).

    Also for score, I would have voted for the one in black swan, that piano alone pretty much scared the crap out of me...
    :p
