Crazy that Andrea is the one facing the heat when Michelle Williams is white, in a movie directed by STEVEN SPIELBERG with major studio backing, and is allegedly not even lead. She must just be giggling behind the scenes rn. Privileged **************

The category is trash this year outside of Blanchett and Yeoh. Best Actress seems to ALWAYS disappoint in one way or another.

[Donquizote]

Andrea deserves that nomination whether you like it or not. The one who should have been snubbed was Williams

[Frozen99]

from the clips i saw, andrea played a white junkie just like any other, she deserved ****.

She gets undeserved hate on social media from what I've seen

sad, friendless losers

Just saw Tár and Cate Blanchett is most likely going home with her third Oscar...

 

[Donquizote]

There's no competition.

Cate will win her third Oscar and soon she will surpass Meryl with her fourth Oscar.

 

Truly a legend that we deserve.

based on screentimecentral, this is the first time an actress lineup was majority 90+ minute performances.

and the first time any lineup was 4/5 90+ minute performances.

Elvis was bad, the over-the-top editing was comical, Tom Hanks' performance was terrible. I can't believe how a bunch of professional cinematographers picked it for an Oscar nomination over The Batman or Top Gun. Austin Butler carrier that movie

 

 

The Fabelmans was actually good, I thought I was gonna get very bored based on what I read but I liked it and I wouldn't mind Spielberg winning BD. I'm baffled with how Steven portrayed his mother tho

 

 

 

[fridayteenage]

Yeoh would be the best acting win this century. Make it happen, voters!

[Kylizzle]

TAR would be the best acting win since Blue Jasmine

 

[fridayteenage]

this decade alone, youn and debose are better than c8

[Dark Phoenix]

Wow The Whale was amazing!! Great acting from all the cast, I’m so happy that Hong Chau got the nom and hopefully she will win, she did better than all the other 4, and then since she’s Asian the members of the Academy will reward Cate with the Oscar saying that they already chose one POC actress…

 

Also Brendan is taking the Oscar, is him vs Butler but doing cosplay is not enough.

 

So it’s gonna be:

-Cate

-Brendan

-Hong Chau

-Ke Huy Quan

 

Watch EEAAO only getting like 1-2 Oscars.

Colin Farrell is taking the Oscar 

I liked Chau's performance a lot but Angela Bassett is probably winning supporting

Sorry but Tang Wei gave a better performance than Yeoh and got snubbed.

Yeoh's win will be tragic when we have the best perfomance from this century from Queen Cate. People will revisit this category in the future and wonder how EEAAO managed to get the most nominations while the movie is basic at best

[Donquizote]

Read somewhere that Michelle Yeoh supported corrupt Malaysian kpeptocrats  Wonder how Academy will respond to this.

I genuinely don't know if you understand the meaning of the word  

 

And the constant comparing of Yeoh to Tang, the only other Asian contender in this category, is ummmm....  Like there's a dozen+ other performances that had hype at some point and some of us can only pit the two Asians together to uplift the white woman with 2 Oscars already 

[wesleywalrus]

Act II of Triangle of Sadness was the funniest moment in the theater this year. Third act fell short imo. 

Still an inspired couple of nominations from the Academy. Love how Ostlund's directing makes you feel awkward in many moments throughout the film. 

[Riot]

Read somewhere that Cate Blanchett named her son after Roman Polanski  Wonder how Academy will respond to this.

[nostalgia]

The C/Kates have always been problemtique wbk

everything everwhere hype will die down in 1 month, there's no way it will get any noms at the Oscars.

My take didn't age well

This we can all get behind on 

 

It's a finely made movie, but literally nothing about it is deserving of an Oscar win  

[Liafen]

 

whew we really need to get Miss Curtis her Oscar! what an eloquent, passionate beautiful soul
