Just watched In Mood for Love.

Yup, Maggie Cheung and Wong Kar Wai deserve to get nominated for Oscar and win.

Still can't get over the ending :jonny5:

Imagine the surprise winner being Andrea like she was the surprise nominee. Everyone is betting on this being a Cate v. Michelle race, but a curveball like that would be so chaotic especially when some of the nominees campaigned for her to get a nom only for her to edge them out to win BA in the end. :redface: Imagine the drama that would ensue :redface:

hope she steals some of cate's white-only voters and splinters her base :eddie:

The real riot would be Miss Ana winning but I think that she’s not even campaigning (just like White Michelle) and since Andrea’s campaign backfired I guess it’s just between Cate and Yeoh.

Soon to be 3X Oscar winner. 

We love a talented legend like her :jonny5:

If Cate wins her 3rd Oscar (even tho I'm personally rooting for Michelle Yeoh), I'll forever be pressed that her first one wasn't for Elizabeth.

 

Elizabeth - Blue Jasmine - TÁR would've been a GOAT lineup for any 3 time winner imo :gaycat6:

There seems to be a consensus on GoldDerby that they're engraving the name Cate Blanchett on that statue as we speak.

I really want Michelle to win but at the same time it’s Cate :monkey: They both serve their career best performance in their movie tbh but EEAAO would not work or be as successful if it was not for Michelle’s performance.

but cate has 2 already? and i'm sure she can score more in the future while this is (likely) yeoh's only chance. that's why i don't understand the strong rooting fot cate since their performances were pretty on par. and in my humble opinion, michelle served way more versatility in her movie.

women talking was phenomenal :jonny2:

 

ben and claire were both robbed

Like I get Cate performance was STELLAR but so was Michelle's

Cate is going to score more nominations in the future, maybe more winS

She is Hollywood elite after all

:gaycat3:

For Michelle this is more likely than not her only chance to win 

It's time for another WOC winner, it's been long enough

She got the performance, she got the movie, she got the career

Give it to her

:giraffe:

I'd still lean Top Gun in Editing+Sound combo. It’s proof the Academy votes differently w BTL categories (e.g Kings Speech losing every tech but winning Director, or Parasite losing Editing, but winning Director) and they almost always include Editing in lazy tech sweeps, especially w the Sound combo. It also went to four different movies for precursors (CCA-WSS, NTTD-BAFTA, KR and TTB-ACE) before the Dune sweep

I won't be surprised at whoever wins BA. I think Cate gave the better performance for sure and would be upset if she didn't win but Michelle's performance was pretty good as well.

Cate honestly doesn't get enough credit for getting nominated twice for the same character

 

Not even Ian McKellen pulled that off with LOTR despite a BAFTA nod for Return Of The King

Cate is winning (deservedly), but I am still rooting for Yeoh

Yes, that was definitely a major achievement. :clap3: 

It also happened the same year she got double acting nominations, so she was on a roll that year. :jonny2:

To be fair, BAFTA didn't nominate him for Fellowship Of The Ring, while the Academy did.

So the latter may have felt his role was recognized enough already with that first nomination, while the former may have nominated him for Return Of The King as a sort of "make-up-nom" for ignoring him the first time.

unfortunately Butler has this locked. His path is mirrors Malek who won GG, BAFTA and lost CC (not that they matter) plus SAG loves a transformation

Oh wow, I didn't know he was actually nominated for lead. I thought he'd have been nominated for supporting like he was at the Academy so was looking there and didn't see his name. But slay :clap3: 

But yes, in that case what a pity he didn't get the nom at the Oscars too.

that second movie is disgusting so.

I'll take anyone over Butler, I just hate biopics. How many times are biopic actors gonna win an Oscar for simply "emulating" the real person?

Blue Jasmine and TÁR will go down as the best BA winners this century along with Natalie Portman methinks.
