You’re loving wrong. My only particularly strong opinion is that I’ll be crushed inside if Deakins gets hosed over for a 14th time. BR2049 is one of the best-looking movies I’ve seen in years, and his best since Assassination of Jesse James. I’m pretty sure I whispered “gently caress!” a dozen times because of how incredible a shot looked.

Yea Deakins winning is all I'm really concerned about, he better loving win this time. It's amazing just how cursed this guy is. Assassination of Jesse James AND No Country For Old Men in the same year.....but then that has to be the year that There Will Be Blood dominated everything(rightfully so).

Three Billboards eating up two Supporting Actor slots is straight B.S. when you've got Ben Safdie, Armie Hammer, and Michael Shannon all dangling to dry. Also, we need justice for Frederick Wiseman.

I'm not even that into Michael Shannon and I agree with you. He absolutely destroyed in Shape. This does seem like another case of the Academy not wanting image problems associated with awarding antagonist roles (ex. everyone but Marlon Brando winning for Streetcar..., etc).

I'd also accept O'Shea Jackson Jr. for Ingrid Goes West which was maybe the most movie-stealing performance i saw all year. and if there was a documentary filmmaker snubbed sorry Wiseman but it was Ceyda Torun

What? Heath Ledger, Javier Bardem, Daniel Day-Lewis, J.K Simmons, and Christoph Waltz all won Oscars for playing evil dudes, all in the last 10 years and are probably the biggest names that I can come up from memory. If you want an Oscar playing rear end in a top hat or straight bad guy is a good way to do it.

She's a good actress, but it's a nothing role. I'm not sure about its screenplay nomination either. I think they just got caught up in nominating it for everything they could.

Depends on what's going on in that year, as I said, it's an image thing. In the year that the Weinstein scandal broke there seems not much chance in the Academy recognizing an actor for brilliantly and humorously inhabiting the role of a vile misogynist. Female voices are the issue this year, plain and simple. And even if I think the weird politics and moral equivalencies in Three Billboards... are a bit hosed it makes sense that Academy voters would blindly fall for Sam Rockwell's racist redemption arc, they always do.

So is Shape if Water really that good, or is it just getting a bunch of nods because it came out not too long ago and Del Toro could film decomposing roadkill and make it look amazing? I’m happy to see Get Out get some nominations and I hope Jordan Peele at least picks up the win for original screenplay, since the horror genre is always woefully ignored with the Oscars (I still feel that even though 10 Cloverfield Lane wasn’t Oscar-worthy in any other sense, John Goodman deserved a nomination for best actor last year, because holy poo poo). I know Daniel Kaluuya stands no chance against Oldman or DDL, but I can hope. Here’s to another year of me doing a few bong rips and saying ‘really?!’ or ‘oh come on!’ at the tv for a few hours, with the occasional ‘oh nice!’ peppered in.

It's very solid and definitely the best Del Toro film since Pan's Labyrinth, but it falls just short of cracking my top 10 for the year. Worth watching, though.
