At least, she's balancing the scales. Not over for her. Just hoping she stopped making shit mediocre comedies and come up something new and fresh to the comedy genre.
I think they are both up for the same awards in this year’s BAFTA and the Oscars tend to follow the same pattern as the BAFTAs. However the favourite has been pushing at the BAFTAs this year
I hope it wins, but I'm also marking this as the moment when Grace accidentally started a riot because she under-estimated the power and sway she controls. 15:55
@@amexred Get out was nominated for best picture last year and Shape of water won but before that there were nominations for Black Swan and Sixth Sense. Slience of the Lambs won a bunch
Such a weak year. The best film out of the nominees is Roma. I can't believe they didn't nominate If Beale Street Could Talk and instead nominated Black Panther, Vice, A Star is Born, and Bohemian Rhapsody. Really? Who is voting in the academy? I seriously question their film tastes.
No Collete for Hereditary, no Annihilation for Visual Effects or Score, no First Man for Score, no Cooper for Director, no Blunt anywhere, no Washington in Best Actor, no Chalamet for Supporting.... I’m super happy for Marina de Tavira though!
Really sad Toni Collette didn’t get recognition for Hereditary. She was amazing in that film. But given the Academy’s track record with horror films, I guess it’s not much of a surprise. 😕
Black panther is so overrated,and this is coming from someone that loves marvel an comic book movies as a whole. I understand it was a cultural phenomenon but that doesn’t make it a Best Picture Movie,especially when it had a lot of flaws compared to any of the other nominated films in this category.
the Oscars want a mainstream movie on the list . what other movie would you put that is mainstream. infinity war is to dependent on previous movies so they wouldn't choose that. they are many factors that go into this.
No Emily Blunt for A Quiet Place No Toni Colette for Hereditary No Saoirse Ronan for Mary Queen of Scots No Rosamund Pike for A Private War No Timothee Chalamet for Beautiful Boy No Suspiria *I AM NOT HAPPY*
Still no awards for best stunts and best voice acting, that makes me a not Happy movie critic. Also, I think casting directors should get some recognition.
@@welch_inc6532 I think it can go a little deeper and kinda more disturbing, since stunt performers play basically the same role as the actors in the movie, recognizing them would be to recognize that the actors performance in movies are somehow shared with another person. The stunt performer has to mimic the physical performance of the actor, portraying the character in the same way the actor does, all of them risk their lifes and many of them have given their lifes to this industry, so failing to recognize them is a major flaw of the academy and downright disrespectful. After all, Black Panther has been nominated, Mad Max was nominated, Saving Private Ryan was nominated, Titanic was nominated, and more movies with plenty of stunts in them. Johnny Depp was nominated for Jack Sparrow, but part of what we see onscreen is due to Tony Angelotti. I'm realizing that I really hold a grudge with this topic, and I better not start with voice acting or I will not do the dishes.
Even if there were a category they wouldn’t air them on tv. They’d give their awards during commercials. Stuntmen and women will never get the respect they deserve.
Not even a single nomination for one of the highest rated movie of last year mission impossible fallout. Could hav got a nomination for cinematography for Rob hardy who did a splendid job. And John krasinski too should have been nominated for best director
It's not that surprising to me, the production company that made A Quiet Place does almost exclusively straight horror movies (besides 2 or 3 action movies by Micheal Bay), which is extremely rare for them to win in the category. They're really not in the business of campaigning for Academy Awards. I don't think it's that big of a deal though. Despite having some fantastic films under their belts, none of the nominees have won an Oscar except McKay and that was for screenplay. So they can have ther shot, Krasinski will have plenty of opportunity to get one in the future after how well A Quiet Place turned out.
Nah. I think this category belongs to Mahershala Ali. He was phenomenal in Green Book, imo. Adam Driver was good but nowhere near as compelling or capturing as Ali.
I think Emily blunt was snubbed. She gave us two good movies with terrific acting performances. Also toni colette should have been nominated for Hereditary. Her performance is the best thing about horror genre to date
I think the Oscar still got problems with horror. This is evident since the silence of the lambs is the only film of the horror genre to win best picture
Neither of Blunt's offerings were Academy Award vehicles this time around. But she's still terrific. Just like Toni Collette who's a friggin powerhouse. (I thought her teeny tiny time "In Her Shoes" was Oscar worthy!) Better, more blatant vehicles if they really want that brass ring.
So? What does you being black have to do with your opinion? Not all black people think it deserves best picture. You’re just pandering to white people being a pick me.
It is no way near to the level of any Nolan batman movie and non of them ever got 7 Nomination and honestly saying BP was not even at the level of infinity war which left out
I wouldn't, I'd say it's one of the most exciting, lots of firsts and historical nominations and I love the fact so many non-american films have been nominated in lots of categories
If Beale Street could talk was snubbed in many categories. It should have been a shoe in for best picture, best director, best production design, best costume design, and CERTAINLY best cinematography. Not sure why Black Panther was nominated for best picture...kind of ridiculous. And I feel like A Star is Born is the most overrated film of the year.
Did you watch Beautiful Boy? Its on Amazon, you should check it out. Not a fad lol. His performance was more complicated and nuanced than many of the other guys in this category. I think he wasnt nominated because not as many voters watched his film. Th guy's nominated are in movies that have multiple nominations so it gets more voters to watch their performance.
Rami Malik deserves the best actor Oscar but best movie??? I didn’t think it was that dramatic it was pretty much by the book rock Biopic let’s be honest!
The fact that Aquaman didn’t get at least get a nomination for visual effects is a complete joke say what you want about that film you have too admit what a beautiful film it is
Infinity war would never have gotten a best picture nom. Solely because you have to watch at least 15 movies to fully understand the weight of everything happening.
Here comes the white People saying black panther is overrated and the other white people who pretend to be black saying, “I’m black and I think black panther is overrated”💀
I wanna be very clear about this: I liked black panther. It's a good movie. However, it does NOT deserve this nomination for best picture oscar. And the only reason it got it was because of zeitgeist and cultural relevance.
You can’t tell Adam Driver is a good actor from Star Wars??? He’s literally given the best performance in the entire franchise (OT included). He gives so many layers to a character that could easily be 2-dimensional
As always great commentary. Between "The Favourite", "Roma" & "Cold war", I see big recognition to non American movies and Directors, which is very fresh!
I don't think A Star is Born even deserved Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Cinematography, Best Supporting Acor, or Best Adapted Screenplay. The movie was just fine, not bad, but just fine....but "just fine" is what gets awarded these days at the Oscars.
Men never see the world with women eyes.....but ROMA will definitely show you how the world looks with women's eyes.....I didn't watched when ROMA was released..I saw today and I was glued for 2 hour 15 minutes on NETFLIX...this movie is pure example of "don't judge the book with cover". MUST WIN OSCAR THIS YEAR...
8:39 - 'The Favourite' got 10 nominations like 'Roma' did, making them both the most nominated movies at the Oscars this year, so it's not really an afterthought if 'The Favourite' got nominated in all the big categories 'Roma' got in for like Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Original Screenplay. Clearly 'The Favourite' has a lot of love behind it like 'Roma' does.
Grace, this is why I don't care about the Oscars. Specifically around 4:55 you say that Rami Malek should win because Christian Bale already has an Oscar. I don't begrudge you your preference, but I can't bring myself to care about the Oscars, because they don't award for the best performance and achievement. Instead they vote for movies for completely different reasons, which for me completely kills my interest.
Still personally rooting for Viggo. Great video! I can’t wait to see Roma win Best Picture - which is incredible. I’ve been waiting all these years to see a comic book movie nominated for this award - and now I’m rooting for Roma.
Awesome Grace you have such remarkable driven poder towards your work waking up so early to deliver high quality content respect and love beautiful Grace
Yalitza Aparicio nominated for Best Actress for doing absolutely nothing in Roma over amazing performances from Emily Blunt, Toni Collette, Nicole Kidman and Rosamund Pike is a disgrace. Especially Toni Collette who gives an unforgettable performance. She’s currently trending on Twitter. Also, Black Panther nominated for Best Picture is a joke. This nomination is having SO MUCH backlash on social media. At least it doesn’t beat The Dark Knight for the comic book with the most Oscar nominations.
Black Panther should never even be nominated for any award of any sort. that horrendous 3rd act alone should be enough to disqualify it from any award nominations. Infinity War was superior to Black Panther in every way imaginable, if a superhero movie was to win best picture it should have been Infinity War, not Black Panther!
I’m pissed Ethan Hawke, Toni Collette, If Beale Street Could Talk, Won’t You Be my Neighbor was snubbed. Particularly, If Beale Street Could Talk for Best Picture, and Girl in the Movies from Dumplin for Best Song.
Stopped your vid at 1:09. I saw Roma I I want to say December 2017 I was astounded. Needless to say I speak Spanish my culture is mainly Mexican so it spoke Relatable volumes to me. I hoped it would get nominated for at least an Oscar this is Spectacular!
The Favourite is NOT an afterthought! It had the highest no of Oscar noms (10) alongside ROMA. And I personally think it's a better movie than ROMA. And Olivia Colman deserves the Oscar over Close. Best Actress award is not a lifetime achievement award.
Im Latina i did NO research on ROMA & I loved it & cryed because it echoes soo many lives I know. And to have indigenous people in it means soo much to the Latinos because we are part of the indigenous peoples of the Americas.
Where is McAvoy for playing over 10 characters in two separate films and still being equally amazing in all of them? Honestly, Glass may not be loved but McAvoy was amazing in both Split and Glass. He deserves at least a nod, despite being in a film unlikely to get a win.
I’m a little bit confused about why you said that the Favourite is kind of an afterthought. It tied with Roma for the most nominations and you had just said that you felt that Colman has a shot at winning
Really curious if because it’s on Netflix it means more people are watching it and thus more nominations. I know the audience gets mailers with dvds but by having it on your phone maybe it was watched by more of the academy??
Well but Grace was saying how the Academy votes. She's never said that she shares the same rationale process herself. She's just predicting what will happen on those "will win"
Right? It's not "hard to see how good he is" at all, it's actually very noticable that he's talented in Star Wars, I'd argue even more so than in Blakkklansman.
@burritopuppy 87 I don't think he's badly written. The dialogues are simple yes, if that's what you're refering to, but it's Star Wars, not an indie movie or Shakespeare. His performance though is masterful imo. He's elevating the material.
Because first and foremost thing about movie you understand when u step on movie set is that - movie making is a collaborative effort! And a huge one at that!
I think the narrative structure of the film and its themes overtake any explicit direction. It would have been nice for him to get a writing nom for it, but the dialog was limited in keeping with the brand. There were no acting nominations so you can't say he guided the actors into great performances either.
@@Vislow It is the only movie of 2018 to transcend film and become a cultural moment in the US and potentially affect change in the industry itself. Getting nominated for that is not pandering. It is accepting that craft alone is not the measure of significance or the sole qualifier for recognition.
Great work Grace, as usual! Its interesting that little or nothing much has been said about Lynne Ramsay's 'You Were Never Really Here', with Joaqin Phoenix and a great score by Johnny Greenwood. I also feel Viola Davis was excellent in Widows, as was 'Claire Foy' in 'First Man'. I personally think the lead actress in Cold War gave a supreme performance that will stand the test of time. I also think her co-lead, is equally deserving of best actor. I also think that Ruth Wilson in Dark River should be among the best actress nominees. Roma is a masterpiece and at least more people will check it out now, which is great for Arthouse filmmaking. Cold War is also a masterpiece, and only Roma edges it on my best films of 2018 list because of the sheer audacity of Alfonso's endeavour. Shoplifters is in my top 5 of 2018. I worked on Ready Player One so it would be cool to see it get formal recognition for its ambitious visual effects.
Black Panther was one of the best reviewed movies of the year, it should not be surprising that it got a best picture nomination lmao people who are outraged, just want to be outraged about something.
Bill Miller Black Panther wasn’t even the best MCU movie last year. The only reason it was so highly rated was because of its cultural impact which, while high, doesn’t make it an amazing movie automatically. The acting, cinematography, soundtrack and especially the special effects all leave something to be desired. If there could be any superhero movie nominated for best picture from last year it should be Spider-verse
I’m not surprised, but you left out one very important word and that’s “hype”. Mission:Impossible had the same RT score as BP, just as critically acclaimed but because BP was the more talked about movie it got the Oscar nom.
Glad Black Panther had so many nominations. I bet it kills the haters. But I don't get the hating (esp from comic book fans)...I've been a comic book fan since 95/96 and I'm so damn proud to see a superhero movie nominated for best picture. BP was an awesome movie.
The problem is that, even though I enjoyed BP, it doesn't deserve to be the first superhero movie to be nominated. The Dark Knight and Logan are way superior than BP. Infinity War was the best superhero movie of last year but only got the best VFX award. BP is cool, but it is only getting nominated for its cultural impact and not for how good the movie is.
I don't "hate" it. I just don't think there's anything awards worthy about it. There were way better films last year. Hell there were way better superhero films last year.
@@dailyplanet354 IW was the best superhero movie because we are comic book fans and have years of knowledge concerning the characters. BP was a great movie overall (despite the 3rd act). It had themes that related to almost everyone who watched it. That's why it's been nominated. I don't think it'll win best picture though but it has a shot in some other categories
Olivia Colman and Christian Bale have the leads wrapped up in my opinion, but it's all to play for in the supporting roles. I also think The Favourite might take away a few Oscars. How dare you insult Christopher Robin like that! but PADDINGTON 2 SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOMINATED!!!
Funny i Dont see Roma being the one to beat. It has an uphill battle to climb. Black-white, foreign and Netflix. The aversion towards Netflix is big. Plus it lacks Best Editing nom which diminshes it's chances. Those two are connected. I think either BlackKlansman or the Favourite will win. As for Bradley, he is bound to get something. I can see him winning Actor.
Honestly black panther deserves the original score win but I don't see it winning anything else. Aquaman definitely got snubbed for vfx. Ready Player One would be my second pick.
Not even one Oscar nomination for one of the highest rated movie of last year Mission Impossible Fallout. This is quite disheartening for an action film. They could have nominated atleast Rob hardy the cinematographer who did a splendid job in the movie. Wat awards do the Oscar have for a pure action movie even if it is highly rated. No award for stunt choreographers even after these many years is bad.
@burritopuppy 87 You didn't enjoy the music in the movie? 🤔 The drum sounds when they enter wakanda.. The choir chants and all the crazy sounds. It was pretty epic.
Melissa McCarthy keeps up the tradition of someone having Oscar and Razzie nominations in the same year...
At least, she's balancing the scales. Not over for her. Just hoping she stopped making shit mediocre comedies and come up something new and fresh to the comedy genre.
Don't underestimate The Favourite as that film has the same amount of noms as Roma.
I hope Olivia Coleman gets the Oscar.
I loved Roma and the Favourite!
And it was reeeeeeally good too, so I’m torn.
I think they are both up for the same awards in this year’s BAFTA and the Oscars tend to follow the same pattern as the BAFTAs. However the favourite has been pushing at the BAFTAs this year
For me The Favourite is slightly better as a movie so I really hope it gets at least one of the acting wins
“If it doesn’t win, we riot“ yo make me laugh so hard. Best channel.
I LITERALLY laughed out loud when she said that.
We shall
To be fair, it'd be ridiculous if Spider-verse doesn't get recognized for its animation at the very least. Very impressive mix of 3D and 2D animation.
japzone Well technically it did get “recognized”. After all, it is nominated for an award. What it actually deserves at a bare minimum is to win it.

Men never see the world with women eyes.....but ROMA will definitely show you how the world looks with women's eyes.....I didn't watched when ROMA was released..I saw today and I was glued for 2 hour 15 minutes on NETFLIX...this movie is pure example of "don't judge the book with cover". MUST WIN OSCAR THIS YEAR...
Grace thanks for being the most hardworking movie critic there is,love your videos

Did you review The Favourite? It was my favourite movie of the year.
8:39 - 'The Favourite' got 10 nominations like 'Roma' did, making them both the most nominated movies at the Oscars this year, so it's not really an afterthought if 'The Favourite' got nominated in all the big categories 'Roma' got in for like Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Original Screenplay. Clearly 'The Favourite' has a lot of love behind it like 'Roma' does.
Grace, this is why I don't care about the Oscars. Specifically around 4:55 you say that Rami Malek should win because Christian Bale already has an Oscar. I don't begrudge you your preference, but I can't bring myself to care about the Oscars, because they don't award for the best performance and achievement. Instead they vote for movies for completely different reasons, which for me completely kills my interest.
Yes, basically, this year the Oscars are rather questionable. And honestly, oscar or not, pretty sure Bale has this locked in for best actor.
Adam Driver is so underrated. His performance in star wars is the best part of the trilogy.
You can’t overlook Christian Bale for an Oscar just because he already has one.
The Favourite was a great watch, I really hope Olivia Colman snags it
Still personally rooting for Viggo. Great video! I can’t wait to see Roma win Best Picture - which is incredible. I’ve been waiting all these years to see a comic book movie nominated for this award - and now I’m rooting for Roma.
I was just watching Roma. It's beautiful but slow and in slides a Grace notification. Yay !!!
I've been excited all day to come home and watch your summary of the Oscar nominations. Thanks Grace. You never let us down.
Awesome Grace you have such remarkable driven poder towards your work waking up so early to deliver high quality content respect and love beautiful Grace
I'm angry that Timothee chalamet hasn't been nominated for beuitful boy his performance broke my heart
Yalitza Aparicio nominated for Best Actress for doing absolutely nothing in Roma over amazing performances from Emily Blunt, Toni Collette, Nicole Kidman and Rosamund Pike is a disgrace. Especially Toni Collette who gives an unforgettable performance. She’s currently trending on Twitter.
Also, Black Panther nominated for Best Picture is a joke. This nomination is having SO MUCH backlash on social media. At least it doesn’t beat The Dark Knight for the comic book with the most Oscar nominations.
wont you be my neighbor, snubbed
emily blunt for quiet place, snubbed
hereditary fans salty lol
Black Panther should never even be nominated for any award of any sort. that horrendous 3rd act alone should be enough to disqualify it from any award nominations. Infinity War was superior to Black Panther in every way imaginable, if a superhero movie was to win best picture it should have been Infinity War, not Black Panther!
So one scene in a 2 hour movie should disqualify it? Why?
The best TH-camr out there! We do appreciate all your hard work to bring us the latest on all Movies!!!!!
I’m pissed Ethan Hawke, Toni Collette, If Beale Street Could Talk, Won’t You Be my Neighbor was snubbed. Particularly, If Beale Street Could Talk for Best Picture, and Girl in the Movies from Dumplin for Best Song.
Stopped your vid at 1:09. I saw Roma I I want to say December 2017 I was astounded. Needless to say I speak Spanish my culture is mainly Mexican so it spoke Relatable volumes to me. I hoped it would get nominated for at least an Oscar this is Spectacular!
I think the Favourite is going to win more awards than you expect, Grace.
Marina de Tavira👏👏 my heart stopped
The Favourite is NOT an afterthought! It had the highest no of Oscar noms (10) alongside ROMA. And I personally think it's a better movie than ROMA. And Olivia Colman deserves the Oscar over Close. Best Actress award is not a lifetime achievement award.
Im Latina i did NO research on ROMA & I loved it & cryed because it echoes soo many lives I know. And to have indigenous people in it means soo much to the Latinos because we are part of the indigenous peoples of the Americas.
Where is McAvoy for playing over 10 characters in two separate films and still being equally amazing in all of them?
Honestly, Glass may not be loved but McAvoy was amazing in both Split and Glass. He deserves at least a nod, despite being in a film unlikely to get a win.
Next year, for sure.
I’m a little bit confused about why you said that the Favourite is kind of an afterthought. It tied with Roma for the most nominations and you had just said that you felt that Colman has a shot at winning
For me Widows and Suspiria deserved a lot more love than they got ; /, but it's not like I was surprised to see two exceptional films get snubbed.
Really curious if because it’s on Netflix it means more people are watching it and thus more nominations. I know the audience gets mailers with dvds but by having it on your phone maybe it was watched by more of the academy??
Why win because you need to get at least something? Just win because you're the best.
This is why I don't care about movie awards.
Well but Grace was saying how the Academy votes. She's never said that she shares the same rationale process herself. She's just predicting what will happen on those "will win"
I understand that. It was a remark against the award system itself.
Great rundown. Superb entertainment. (..but who was snubbed in the supporting actress category??)
Adam Driver isn’t good in Star Wars? Since when?
Right? It's not "hard to see how good he is" at all, it's actually very noticable that he's talented in Star Wars, I'd argue even more so than in Blakkklansman.
@burritopuppy 87 I don't think he's badly written. The dialogues are simple yes, if that's what you're refering to, but it's Star Wars, not an indie movie or Shakespeare. His performance though is masterful imo. He's elevating the material.
He's amazing in everything, even Star Wars.
Adam Driver is one phenomenal method actor. Really deserved an Oscar nomination.
yeah, I'm not sure what she meant. It's clear he's one of the best things about the new Star Wars movies even despite the bad writing
Why is it that Ryan never nominated while BP is always ? How else would the move have been made so we’ll if it wasn’t for him ?
Because first and foremost thing about movie you understand when u step on movie set is that - movie making is a collaborative effort! And a huge one at that!
Which is all the more reason he should have been recognized for his collaborative effort
Because the movie isn't actually anything special and they're just pandering
I think the narrative structure of the film and its themes overtake any explicit direction. It would have been nice for him to get a writing nom for it, but the dialog was limited in keeping with the brand. There were no acting nominations so you can't say he guided the actors into great performances either.
@@Vislow It is the only movie of 2018 to transcend film and become a cultural moment in the US and potentially affect change in the industry itself. Getting nominated for that is not pandering. It is accepting that craft alone is not the measure of significance or the sole qualifier for recognition.
The Favourite scores 10 Nominations!! Viva la Greece !
Great work Grace, as usual! Its interesting that little or nothing much has been said about Lynne Ramsay's 'You Were Never Really Here', with Joaqin Phoenix and a great score by Johnny Greenwood. I also feel Viola Davis was excellent in Widows, as was 'Claire Foy' in 'First Man'. I personally think the lead actress in Cold War gave a supreme performance that will stand the test of time. I also think her co-lead, is equally deserving of best actor. I also think that Ruth Wilson in Dark River should be among the best actress nominees. Roma is a masterpiece and at least more people will check it out now, which is great for Arthouse filmmaking. Cold War is also a masterpiece, and only Roma edges it on my best films of 2018 list because of the sheer audacity of Alfonso's endeavour. Shoplifters is in my top 5 of 2018. I worked on Ready Player One so it would be cool to see it get formal recognition for its ambitious visual effects.
Black Panther was one of the best reviewed movies of the year, it should not be surprising that it got a best picture nomination lmao people who are outraged, just want to be outraged about something.
I'm angry bc I hated the movie. I'm a huge superhero fan and it's literally my least favorite Marvel movie yet.
Bill Miller Black Panther wasn’t even the best MCU movie last year. The only reason it was so highly rated was because of its cultural impact which, while high, doesn’t make it an amazing movie automatically. The acting, cinematography, soundtrack and especially the special effects all leave something to be desired. If there could be any superhero movie nominated for best picture from last year it should be Spider-verse
I’m not surprised, but you left out one very important word and that’s “hype”. Mission:Impossible had the same RT score as BP, just as critically acclaimed but because BP was the more talked about movie it got the Oscar nom.
Sean Valentine Or maybe because it did better at the box office
Mr Degenerate that’s your opinion though. It’s in my top 5 of 2018.
I hate to admit that when the nominations were announced I totally kept refreshing youtube to see when your video would be up lol. Love your content!
Malek or Bale, the title of Oscar nominee will away stick with you.
Proud of both, especially Rami ❤
Malek the winner!!!!
Grace you still have that high energy level from your 2009 videos. Keep it up for the quality content.
Glad Black Panther had so many nominations. I bet it kills the haters.
But I don't get the hating (esp from comic book fans)...I've been a comic book fan since 95/96 and I'm so damn proud to see a superhero movie nominated for best picture. BP was an awesome movie.
The problem is that, even though I enjoyed BP, it doesn't deserve to be the first superhero movie to be nominated. The Dark Knight and Logan are way superior than BP. Infinity War was the best superhero movie of last year but only got the best VFX award. BP is cool, but it is only getting nominated for its cultural impact and not for how good the movie is.
I don't "hate" it. I just don't think there's anything awards worthy about it. There were way better films last year. Hell there were way better superhero films last year.
@@dailyplanet354 IW was the best superhero movie because we are comic book fans and have years of knowledge concerning the characters. BP was a great movie overall (despite the 3rd act). It had themes that related to almost everyone who watched it. That's why it's been nominated. I don't think it'll win best picture though but it has a shot in some other categories
@@vaporwave4880 really? Nothing award worthy? Production, costumes, music? C'mon man
@@yourmajesty8913 I definitely agree. Atlantis looked amazing. BP's visual effects were okay. Not award worthy
have you done a review for first reformed? would love to see your thoughts on it!
Olivia Colman and Christian Bale have the leads wrapped up in my opinion, but it's all to play for in the supporting roles.
I also think The Favourite might take away a few Oscars.
How dare you insult Christopher Robin like that! but PADDINGTON 2 SHOULD HAVE BEEN NOMINATED!!!
Was waiting for this this! Thanks for all your hard work!
Black Panther doesn't deserve a nomination.
Bohemian Rhapsody should not even be in the same category as Roma and The Favourite. If it wins, I will be even more royally pissed.
Funny i Dont see Roma being the one to beat. It has an uphill battle to climb. Black-white, foreign and Netflix. The aversion towards Netflix is big. Plus it lacks Best Editing nom which diminshes it's chances. Those two are connected. I think either BlackKlansman or the Favourite will win. As for Bradley, he is bound to get something. I can see him winning Actor.
Green Book is great....I hope it will win best picture
Been waiting for this ! I lost it ! Love you Grace :)
Honestly black panther deserves the original score win but I don't see it winning anything else. Aquaman definitely got snubbed for vfx. Ready Player One would be my second pick.
As much as I hate to say it, don’t underestimate Disney...
BP should win Best Score and Best Costume Design
"it should be him because the other guy already has an Oscar" ..... what?! this isnt kindergarten come the fuck on. the best guy should win. period.
Not even one Oscar nomination for one of the highest rated movie of last year Mission Impossible Fallout. This is quite disheartening for an action film. They could have nominated atleast Rob hardy the cinematographer who did a splendid job in the movie. Wat awards do the Oscar have for a pure action movie even if it is highly rated. No award for stunt choreographers even after these many years is bad.
Thank you for this video Graze, amazing as always ! I wonder what your notes looks like haha
Best picture bohemian rhapsody ? Are you serious lol it won’t win
It's better than Black Panther. What a joke that is
That's what they all thought at the Globes too.. Surprise, suprise
My son LOVES Queen and even he said it shouldn’t win best picture.
Gianluca Meschini ..I still think Rami Malek deserves Best Actor...he was amazing!
Hmm idk but still i vote for rami malek
You really excel at these type of videos, Grace. I ordinarily have a mild interest in the Oscars, but you've got me fully engaged.
Since I'm Swedish.. I reaaaallly hope Black Panther wins best original score!! Ludwig really hit a home run with the music! 👌😁
I agree, that Black Panther score is amazing. There's nothing close to it.
@burritopuppy 87 You didn't enjoy the music in the movie? 🤔 The drum sounds when they enter wakanda.. The choir chants and all the crazy sounds. It was pretty epic.
burritopuppy 87 the Soundtrack and the SCORE are two DIFFERENT things 💁🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ at least in Black Panther’s case...
@TonyDracon you're dad must did not love your mother ?
@TonyDracon Here's some attention for you, since that's probably what you were after 👍
