I couldn't agree more that X and Pearl were heavily slept on at the academy. It would've been nice to see Pearl get a nomination for Cinematography and Best Actress where X gets a nomination for best sound and best makeup.
I disagree so much about the Everything Everywhere All At Once’s costume design. Jobu/Joy’s outfits were A+ and iconic. Even Evelyn’s PUNK! sweater is easily identifiable. I think the Everything Everywhere song was a little lackluster though and would’ve preferred Ciao Papa instead.
Agreed Everything Everywhere all at once was amazing, and Jobu’s costumes look really great!!!
It also had a low budget. So, it was good!
ABSOLUTELY. I will always maintain that costuming for contemporary films deserves so much more love and appreciation
EEAAO got a nom in costumes because they where able to do what they did with a nearly non existent budget.
Yes! The Woman King costume design was slept on.
Agreed.
Jobu served so hard in EEAAO in every look she had so I’ll allow it
But I do agree the Woman King is incredible
I strongly agree with Pearl and X. In my opinion, Mia Goth should’ve been nominated for Pearl instead of Ana De Armes for Blonde in the best actress category. Her 8 minute monologue is PHENOMENAL!
Agree heartily about The Northman. Robert Eggers has done a lot to revive the historical drama, always one of my favorite genres. It's a shocking, gritty, but ultimately beautiful film, sadly underrated. To see it shut out of nominations was a shame.
Ana de Armas will win a Best Actress Oscar one day, for a movie that's actually GOOD. And I want Michelle Williams to win her Best Actress Oscar for a movie in which she plays the protagonist.
Michelle should have won for Brokeback Mountain and also for My Week With Marilyn!!!
Mia Goth not being nominated for Pearl has me so infuriated!
That Best Actress category needed an overhaul in general. Love Michelle & Cate's performances so much, but the other 3 definitely shouldn't have been there over Danielle Deadwyler, Viola Davis, Margot Robbie, or even Emma Thompson in Good Luck To You, Leo Grande. As good as Ana is in Blonde, that entire movie is so hideous that I hate that it'll always be known as an Oscar nominated film because of Ana's performance. The Diane Warren nomination doesn't bother me as much because she's very much deserved a competitive Oscar for several years now. Thanks for another great video, Brian. 😊
I have to agree with the Best Original Song nomination. They should have gave it to Ciao Papa.
I also felt that Judd Hirsch didn’t deserve the nomination as well, although it’s not the worst nomination. He’s good, but it was more like a cameo. Paul Dano should had got that nomination.
Agreed they should’ve given it to Paul Dano and if they wanted more of a great surprise nomination similar Brian Tyree Henry then I would’ve given the slot to Ben Whishaw for women talking
Ciao Papa will haunt and be with me forever. Stunning piece of music and it won every possible award to me.
The Riseborough nom gives me so many mixed feelings. The “back door” argument feels hollow because it means only people who have corporations spending millions on their campaign are allowed in but also the way people used their connections for her in a way that performers of color have never seen is very telling. It’s also weird to put all the hate for the lack of black performers on her when Michelle Williams is in here for a weaker performance. Yes, Deadwyler should be here but Riseborough is far from the first I’d kick out.
I don’t think Michelle Williams should have been nominated. I thought her performance was a little too melodramatic for my taste. I think Danielle Deadwyler should have taken her spot.
I agree. I love Michelle Williams, but I thought her performance was a bit weak. Plus, I wasn't a big fan of The Fablemans.
I like Michelle Williams too. The Fablemans isn’t one of her best performances. She is worthy of nominations for My Week with Marilyn and Manchester by the Sea, but not Fablemans. I thought The Fablemans was okay. It’s not one of Spielberg’s best works. I prefer Raiders of the Lost Ark, Schindler’s List, Saving Private Ryan and Jaws than The Fablemans. Those are much better films from him. Heck, I like Lincoln more too.
I agree. Danielle Deadwyler should have been nominated and won the Oscar for TILL. I don’t understand why she didn’t campaign. I still have no idea who she is. Her lack of putting herself out there probably cost her the nomination.
I feel like Diane Warren is the anti-Taylor Swift.
Taylor writes songs with such specific details and singular insights that they end up being universal. No, I don't have an ex-boyfriend who still has my scarf - I can't even remember owning a scarf after I was ten or eleven - but I know the feeling behind it. I immediately feel the emotion of the singer, but I also feel the melancholy sadness of the ex, holding on to a memory that ended far too soon.
On the other hand, you've got Diane, who writes songs so ridiculously generic they can apply to anyone and any situation and end up feeling hollow and meaningless. I don't think she's a bad songwriter by any means, but her songs are pop lightweights without any depth or insight that I've ever noticed. The fact that she's been nominated for an Academy Award more than once or twice blows my mind.
Pop music can be amazing. Listen to George Michael's songs, for example. "Careless Whisper", "Freedom '90", and so many more are perfect works of pop that also have so many layers and so much meaning. Diane rarely comes even close to anything like that, although I do love "Just Like Jesse James" and "If You Asked Me To" among others. Again, she's not a bad songwriter. But she's such an odd choice to be such an Oscar perennial.
One of my favourite editing tricks you do is inserting your own reactions, kind of comedically. It always makes me giggle. Love hearing your takes and love having someone who thinks about movies/the oscars as much as me! ☺
I felt like i was going crazy thinking Everything Everywhere was just a nice movie but nothing insanely good, even tho i kept hearing how amazing it was. It ran long for me and i wished it had been shorter.
It's nice to hear someone with a similar opinion
Top Gun and Elvis should not have been nominated for Best Pictures. 2 collective delirium, in a few years no one will say those were best picture contenders.
Ana de Armas is simply Brilliant in blond, i see as more impressive when an actor comes through with a brilliant performance in a bad or ok movie than in a great one, i feel its more of an acomplishment
Agree I love when actors/actresses create a character on their own and have so much dedication and ambition you can tell Ana deeply wanted to connect and showcase a different side to Marilyn while Andrew Dominick wanted to simply exploit Marilyn.
She was my favorite performance of last year, she rampaged through that role and film, it was such a good showcase for her
She was astonishing, I only saw blonde after the Oscar nominations and I was amazed with her work
I love your videos so much! I devour them the moment I find them! My 3 loves are books, cozy video games, and movies (all of these are stationary activities...I wonder why I'm overweight lol) I may not agree with you every time but I definitely respect your opinions as the better informed and I'm learning a great deal about the technical aspects of movie making. Please keep these videos coming!!
Another great video! Question: Is John Williams the Meryl Streep of Composers? 🤔
Agreed. The Batman was SNUBBED for Score and Cinematography.
Also Judd Hirsch taking Paul Dano’s spot in supporting actor
EEAAO deserved a nom for it’s costumes
I think Judd Hirsch’s nomination is undeserved especially considering he only appeared in one scene, and a not very memorable one. I would replace him with Ben Whishaw from Women Talking.
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
I agree about John Williams's score for the Fabelmans. I absolutely adore the film and Williams is one of the greatest film composers of all time, but it's not a particularly memorable score. That said, Spielberg asked Williams to do the score because he knew Spielberg's parents personally, so his inspiration was the real people. I thought that was really sweet.
PSA: Ana didn’t deserve an Oscar nom. The make-up team did.
As a fan of what Ana de Armas (as well as the make up and various technical categories) managed to do with Blonde, I don’t think anything about that film should have been recognized by the Oscars. Too disrespectful, too all over the place, too questionable in its direction, writing, etc. Personally - I thought it was awful, but my own opinion aside, I also feel that Ana’s nomination took the spot of much more rich, deserving performances.
@@Jcmc9317plus she didn’t even try to sound like her. Like that’s the bare minimum. And she didn’t do it
😂well cry about it😭🤡
@@Jcmc9317this years oscar jury - a mistake 🤣
@@MrGMovieReviewsshe sounded a lot like her, like, what movie did you watch? Michelle Williams sounded even less like Marilyn and she also got a nomination.
Says a lot when Deakins and Williams are considered bad Oscar noms lol. Deakins being nominated for Empire of Light is his Diane Warren moment unfortunately.
Eeaao should have not received a nom for best score, Jamie lee Curtis and song. And also costume design.
I think in "All Quiet on the Western Front", most of the makeup work was prosthetic makeup (realistic dead body), not non-prosthetic makeup on the actors
Ciao Papa was so robbed it’s criminal
Talking about Oscar winning and nominated songs, you should do a video on Oscar songs. I’ve always thought all Oscar nominated songs sucked lol I think the only year that I remember it being incredible was 1978.
I found TO LESLIE a terrible film with Andrea Riseborough's performance completely overwrought. I thought Marc Maron gave the best performance of the film, but that's not saying much. The costumes in EEAAO deserved the nomination. Even while watching it, I was thinking about how brilliant the costume choices were. There are so many of them and each one has to stand in for a particular moment. Ana De Armas got a nomination just for making it through the film.
Amazing video... couldn't agree more
I think EEAAO deserves a costume design nomination especially the white dress and the teddy bear dress. Doesn’t deserve a song nomination though.
So the film doesn't deserve a costume nomination if it's not a period or a pure fantasy film? Costume design nomination for EEAAO is one of the most inspiring of the recent years. Ofc it got in cause of the lazy voting but it's inspired nonetheless. If anything Mrs Harris goes to Paris is an okay nom, nothing groundbreaking but just cause you see more dresses doesn't mean it's one of the most deserving of the category. If anything the lighting of the movie even made them look a bit cheap. It's about the design not the biggest dress. A research on what each category means in the filmmaking would be nice.
Can someone explain what was the source material that gave Top Gun an adapted screenplay nom?
it's adapted from the first movie
Instead of Ana Mia should have gotten that nomination for Pearl.
Pearl was mid , Viola would of been better, but Ana was acting wayyyy more better than pearl
Andrea Riseborough deserved that Oscar nomination for To Leslie, to say that was suspect is absurd!
I agree with you with Maverick. It was almost boring the storyline with the exception you’re right of a few great scenes. It was not cohesive, and I definitely could’ve been a more engrossing story. I still don’t know what they were fighting for or who they were fighting.
Topp Gun deserves to be nominated for screenplay as much as or more than Nomadland was.
0% ? We agree!
You're basically saying that if a movie is bad, a performer should not be nominated for an Oscar, ergo you think that other actresses that weren't nominated but were in films that you feel were better than Blonde should have been nominated instead of Ana. Let me remind you, an Oscar for best performance is simply that, for best performance. The fact that even most people who hated Blonde could agree that Ana's performance was not simply good, but great, speaks volumes.
Let me add at this moment, you did not mention that the costume design in Blonde was Oscar worthy. Ana was made to look just like Marilyn in scene after scene. You really hate the movie to not even mention that Blonde [however bad it was] deserved an Oscar nod for costume design.
Spoiler alerts: I know I am going to be attacked by the Cult of Tom Cruise for making any critiques whatsoever of Cruise or his films, but Top Gun Maverick's story was too similar to Star Wars. In Star Wars, the rebels had to fly through a channel in the Death Star to get to its vulnerability where Luke could fire on it and destroy it. In Top Gun Maverick, the Navy pilots had to fly through mountain canyons to where Maverick could fire on a protected uranium enrichment facility. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Top Gun Maverick. But when I saw that scene, it took me back to Star Wars. Rehash. Let the trolling begin.
Every movie has been done before. The Screenplay in TGM doesn't have to be original, but it was adapted wonderfully
No Offense to Her, but Diane Warren being a favoritism nomination from the Branch, and the fact that we don’t have a lot of On-Screen Performances or Musical Numbers, and just get generic credit songs, it shows us why the Academy Needs to get rid of the Best Original Song Category, it’s more of ABC wants Ratings to get Big Music Artists instead of nominating UpBeat Songs, this is why the win for the song Nattu Nattu from RRR shows is why we need more Songs like that to Get Nominated instead of Diane Warren every year
What's the name of that movie with the blue chickens?
The score I would've put in over The Fabelmans would easily be Pawel Mykietyn's score for EO. That score is SO evocative and haunting for the movie, and it even won the soundtrack award at Cannes. The fact that it apparently didn't even make the shortlist for nominations is baffling to me.
EO’s film score absolutely agree deserved it.
Bones & All would've been an incredible adapted screenplay nomination, shame that the Academy still hates horror or else that should've gotten screenplay, supp. actor and sound nominations (the lattermost not even being the best horror sound work of the year lmao that was Nope)
Wow, I couldn’t disagree more on the Costume Design not being deserving for EEAAO
And you lost me at the end. That is easily my favorite of Dianne Warren's recent nominations. I love that song. I do think she's been over nominated though. If she hadn't gotten in for her two previous films, i doubt this would've made the list and it certainly wouldn't have topped it. Personally, i find the cinematography snub of Top Gun, the Editing snub of Babylon, and the acting Snubs of Mia Goth, Viola Davis, and Danielle Deadwyler to be far more egregious.
I'm very biased with Diane Warren. Until she wins a competitive Oscar, keep nominating her!!! LOL. But seriously, this woman's work is so underappreciated. There's no such thing as too much with her getting her flowers.
How was Pauly Shore not nominated for Best Supporting Actor In Pinocchio: A True Story?! 🤥
LMAO 😂
Couldn't disagree more about Ana De Armas. She gave what we call a Bravura performance, I don't think the hard work the actors put into a character should ever be undermined because of the movie's quality. And also, let's be honest, the slot Michelle Williams got for leading, that should have been in supporting, was Margot's!
Her performance was not all of that to be nominated over Danielle Deadwyler or Viola Davis, they were desperate to nominate someone who wasn't white cause with Michelle Yeoh it was enough diversity for them
@@dacrimsoncurseI agree about Danielle but disagree on Viola. Ana gave a knockout performance, much better than the other celebrity biopic performances we've had the last feel years. And diversity for diversity sake let's not forget that Ana is a born and raised Cuban
Or Danielle Deadwyler's
And you're correct - de Armas was magnificent in Blonde.
@@viniciusbfonseca no, not really
"ana is a born and raised cuban" cuban is a race now
She's WHITE as snow
Till couldn't get nominations because not enough people were brave enough to stomach the subject matter of lynching a child. Hearing and not seeing the lynching still gives me nightmares remembering that scene. You even said in this video that the Academy shies away from horror films. Till came close. It was expected to lose money.
Elvis was good, you trippin
Speaking of horror and makeup, I really hope Talk To Me gets nominated.
Ohhh I love ur choice for X in makeup and hairstyling, I didn’t know it was two young people in old people make up until my friend told me!
but are the nominations for costumes about being wowed always? The criticism of EEAAO's (a film I don't even particularly like)' costuming being nominated, I do think the costumes for that were a big part of the success of the film and I'd say moreso in the character's mundane looks, like Jamie Lee Curtis's character, Michelle Yeoh's mumsy thing, the daughter's girlfiend's hip shirt. The editing and the final product annoyed me, but the costuming was great for what it was supposed to do I thought
In animated featured, if they really wanted an "kid goes to an adventure at the sea with a magical creature" type of movie, My Father's Dragon was right there.
In costumes, I completely disagree. Yes, The Woman King was amazing costumes, and I do think they are better than EEAAO. But if you have to take someone out, for me, Babylon's costume are just so bad, and bland; like, the worst aspect of the movie. Elvis are really just recreations, and no specially good ones, and Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris is just the typical european period piece that we get every year. I much prefer more EEAAO-type of nomination in this category. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was the correct winner.
In makeup. i agree with Pearl needed a nomination, but I don't agree with the rest. I don't really care about All Quiet, but technically is a very well made movie, and I don't think any of their nominations there are bad. I feel Elvis has the worst makeup ever, so plastic, and somehow, for me, Butler looks more like Elvis before they put the makeup on him, so bad job all around.
In production design, I mean... Is DESIGN, not construction. The fact the scenery was CGI, doesn't mean there wasn't someone designing everything, and making it be absolutely perfect for the movie. A totally deserved nomination, in my opinion. The one I would say was the weaker in the category is The Fabelmans, but even then it has a really good production design.
In Score, I completely agree. The Fabelmans is a very weak score, but even weaker was the winner, so...
In Actress, just all around a shit show. Like, Michelle Yeoh and Cate Blanchett are AMAZING, but yes, all the other ones are like really weak. Ana de Armas is an amazing actress, but I feel she is barely creating a character in Blonde; she is just a empty vessel for a ridiculous amount of paint to be inflicted.
In Editing... Mmmm... I don't like Elvis, it a very subpart movie. But I feel is the fault of a very superficial screenplay, and the editing, even if not specially good, is doing everything it can to hide that they have nothing to say in the movie. The weakest of the nominated in this category. But Babylon, I feel, has the same problem, an empty screenplay with nothing new to say, that the editing is trying so hard to hide. Like, great cast, but very weak overall.
In Best Original Song, of course is a incredibly weak song. But like, the category itself is filler, so is fine.
I thought you were going to say the EEAAO song was the worst nomination. I didn't particularly like it even at the ceremony. But I forgot only one nomination for each movie. 😅 I know it wasn't this year, but last year I would have picked We Don't Talk Aout Bruno. It's a song I still listen to a lot and it wasn't even nominated. 😢 I really want Lin-Manuel Miranda to win that Oscar.
I completely disagree with your argument about Ana de Armas. It is entirely possible to give a great performance in a bad film, and the quality of her work should stand alone. I often see films that I don't connect with which have great performances or outstanding technical elements (like the cinematography or the score), and the efforts of those individual artists should not be ignored. Bardo was one of my least favorite films of last year, and I was still rooting for Darius Khondji to get the Oscar. That movie was pretentious and self-indulgent as hell, but that didn't stop the cinematography from being gorgeous. And Blonde being a very ill-advised, even morally questionable, movie has no bearing on the skill and level of commitment that Ana de Armas showed in that part. I have seen movies where the filmmaking is so sloppy that it gets in the way of the performances, but I don't think that applies here. She was unmistakably great in that role.
Ana de Armas' performance is too one-dimensional, she cries or suffers and offers very little variety in her performance, she tries hard but was not but nominated for an Oscar; Watch Michelle Williams' performance as Marilyn is much better
@@jesusjavierondo6774 See I totally respect this argument because it's about the actual performance, not the movie around it. Whether I agree or not, very solid argument. If he'd said something like this in the video I'd have no issue with it at all.
Everything Everywhere costumes are iconic in my opinion, also This is a Life is a terrific song! I agree with Top Gun in Adapted
Wait, you say that Avatar didn't deserve best production design because it's hard to tell "when CGI begins and real life ends". Well that is exactly the same reason then for "maverick" missing out over more "realistic" shots of Cinematography. I think that Empire of Light is exactly the perfect example of why (no matter the film) we include an outstanding work. And Empire was one just film. You are contradicting yourself based on your preference and not the merit
Ana was sublime!
Ana De Armas was amazing in Blonde. A performance that will appreciated a decade from now. The hate was so overblown.
I thought "The Sea Beast" was the best animation of the year
Lol, I’d’ve actually *_voted_* for _Top Gun: Maverick_ in Best Adapted Screenplay, I admire it that much. XD
SO GOOD
I came here for the Ana De Armas stan outrage.
Disagree with Costume Design pick. 😏
Ana did phone it in by not having a Marilyn accent tho
I'm more against the white Michelle Williams being nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role than against Ana de Armas' nomination. In "The Fabelmans", Williams was good, but I would argue that she was more of a supporting actress than a lead.
I fully agree that Ana de Armas did NOT deserve the nomination and idc what any of these Blonde apologists in the comments have to say…. Yes, she was fully committed to a role that didn’t let her do anything besides cry and be topless…. Yes, her performance was instrumental in this movie’s overall desecration of Marilyn’s legacy… but neither of those things mean she gave a great performance; she just successfully gave us nothing.
Thanks once again, Brian. The Academy should hire YOU as a consultant. Keep up the exemplary work.
Can’t wait for the follow up video of worst nominations of all time
I’ll always defend Ana de Armas in Blonde. I thought her performance was devastating.
WTF ? Ana de Armas earned that nomination, she's latina and maneged to pull an american iconic woman. She was better than Michelle's portrait
I liked Ana in Blonde. The movie was a bit of a mess, but she is great in the movie. I Support her Performance.
Andrea Riseborough got the nomination because she gave a very good Performance and generated votes because people liked it. Nobody was forced to vote for her. All that stuff with her " breaking the rules" is bonkers. Lets get over that.
For me his performance was too monotonous, he suffers or cries, it's okay but that it exaggerates the script and the direction ruins his performance
Agree in almost everything, except Ana de Armas. One of the best performances of the decade. She gave it all.❤
I love your videos and we have a lot of things in common. Top Gun Maverick is for me one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
The Woman King was horribly overlooked in the Best Supporting Actress category
I Agee 100 percent with the Sea Beast. I didn't enjoy it as much and LOVED Apollo 10 1/2!
Ana de Armas is incredible in this film, depending on the director's vision, but you put her in the worst nominations but then you praise and say positive things about her characterization, then she should not be in this video and if sometimes she gets lost in the narrative of the film, which is not very good, but what is not good in narrative Ana de Armas helps and overshadows that plot with her performance so she deserves her nomination, apart from that she is the first Cuban nominated in the 95 years of the Oscar, it is somewhat embarrassing but She is the first, I think I would remove her from this video if you are also criticizing the movie but here it is just acting and she deserves it.
Gina Price Blythwood - The director of The Woman King was robbed - she is. Fantastic director - her debut film love and basketball is iconic and she deserved many accolades and Oscar nods as well
I don't like Blonde, but I do think Ana de Armas deserves that Oscar nomination. As a non-native English speaker who started learning English in 2014 who sometimes still has a hard time getting her point across in English, she managed to do justice to this Hollywood and pop culture icon, from the nuances of her emotional layers to her physique and accent. I think her performance is better than Michelle Yeoh in EEAAO, seriously.
For original score, the one in Bones and All would be my choice
I’m just not drinking the Marcel Michele Kool-Aid I found it to be very tedious and cute overload
Andrea riseborough's nomination was much more ridiculous than Ana de armas' nomination. Bardo's nomination for Best Cinematography was worse than Empire of light's nomination.
You should do a video on people who just seem to be nominated all the time when they don't deserve it, people like John Williams, Meryl Streep, etc., who are excellent but seem to be nominated for any movie they make.
If there was gonna be a best actress surprise I think there were better options more notably mia goth in pearl, taki wang in decision to leave, Rooney Mara in women talking, Regina hall in honk for Jesus, Taylor russell in bones and all and Aubrey plaza in Emily the criminal, just personally speaking all of those aforementioned performances were much better than Andrea riseborough in to Lelise doe Andrea does a great job. As for Ana de Armas she’s more complicated bc she’s a prime example of giving a bravura performance where it’s Ana’s amazing talent, skills, dedication and ambition as a actress that outweighs a outright horrible movie I truly believe if Ana was the executive producer of the film she would’ve made blonde be a better film and had her performance more appreciated.
I disagree on the EEAO costume design mention that was one of the top 2 best in the nomination along with the black panther Wakanda forever I recommend watching Mina Lee ranking/analysis video on the 2023 best costume design Oscar nominees she goes into great detail on brilliant on the costume design is from the ordinary costumes in the real world to the different alternative universes costumes being symbolic of the unique different identities of the main 3 characters as Asian Americans, I personally think Babylon was the least best in the costume design category and I would’ve taken that out for the women king, if not women king I would’ve picked women talking, pearl or x
I would've easily swapped Ana de Armas with Danielle Deadwyler. That's pretty much it, Andrea Riseborough can keep her nomination because she was great in To Leslie and the movie itself was great. Sure she got in the nomination in a weird way but i still think she deserved her nomination. Ana however, not so much 🤷
As for Viola Davis, nah no thanks. I didn't like The Woman King all that much, her acting was good but there are many actresses who were far better in a better movie
Trash opinion from a trashy person
Ugh, I've listened so much to Still Holding My Hand, I'd love for that to have been nominated
What really gets to me is how wonderful it would have been if Marilyn Monroe had won an Oscar (if she’d lived a full life, I’m sure she would have), and now here’s the worst depiction of her life… well, I don’t need to explain much, right? Good performance, but the movie shouldn’t have been made to begin with.
You are so wrong about Blonde. It is a remarkable, difficult & devastating film. Her performance was on another level, simular to emma stones uncompromising Bella Baxter in Poor Things.
❤🎉😊
Everyone needs to see Tell It Like a Woman at least once. It's hilariously bad.
I really liked Top Gun Maverick, that being said definitely not Oscar worthy
ABSOLUTELY NOT
Brian, usually you make good points, but this is not one of them.
Top Gun Maverick was a WGA, Satellite, USC Scripter nominee. The dialogue is rich it balances homage of the original while allowing people who never saw the original. It introduces to new cadets and you are invested in their success. The script is also very tight and efficient in the sense that by the 3rd act the audience can turn off their brain because we u derstand the stakes and the mission and allows us to appreciate the action scenes of the film. Also the Val Kilmer/ Tom Cruise scene is literally wonderful and a pure flex of how smart the script is. So no. Top Gun Maverick deservedly earned its nomination and quite frankly could be argued to be one of the best adapted screenplays of all of 2022 for solid reasons.
Everyone has their opinions. Hated the original, hated maverick. Wasn't invested in the characters in any way at all because they don't seem like real people to me. The whole thing is just ridiculous & I was bored as hell the whole time watching it. The Tom & Val scene felt silly to me. Any film that has me "turning off my brain" can't be decrscribed as any higher than average at best. Even the parts I know are real felt fake. Just another cheesy action movie imo.
I totally agree about Apollo 10 1/2. I think the Academy didn’t nominate it because it’s rotoscoped.
That was my thought as well.
Animated movies seem to be very subjective as to what they consider animation, or worthy of a nomination. I would have put in Beavis and Butt-head Do The Universe, which was a very funny movie and has high scores on Rotten Tomatoes. But would never be nominated, they also don't seem to like Japanese Anime as well.
The costume design of EEAAO was actually a very tedious undertaking of a task and difficult to do well bevause it was talking about mutlti,-verse.
But for anyone doing it , it was great fun because it would stretch your creative skills to the imit. I think the designer for example could havea added some distinguishing feature of the costumes for those scenes of the multi+verses Ike curly seams to denote the miky way or curly tattoos on the arms, or a band of white powder across the forehead to denote the same thing Costumes and make-up could have been more cosely inyrrtwined.14:47
You lost me right at the beginning. Top Gun Maverick ABSOLUTELY DESERVED its Adapted Screenplay nomination. I was the only one saying all year how it belonged in that category because it was one of the best films of the year, not for its acting, not for its action, but because of its Screenplay. It was so much better than the original, and that year, there were few films you could put above it. And even then, they weren't that much better. So no, Top Gun Maverick's Screenplay was a deserved nomination and honestly, should've gotten the win. Yes, over Women Talking.
Maverick is not even the best TOP GUN movie.
@@vbittencourt the lies you tell yourself.
_Top Gun: Maverick_ landed every single economic blockbuster plotting move to surpass the 1st film. Every single one.
THANK YOU.
1. It is better than Women Talking which was just a woke mess, but they gave Polley the award because it was a sympathy Oscar for not getting nominated for Director and they couldn't ignore female directors, even tho fil m Twitter was yelling women Talking as if Woman King was not the better directed movie, also by not just a woman but a woman of color.
2. Top Gun Maverick got 1.5 billion dollars because it respected its audience and knew how to engage in wonderful storytelling that emphasized the acting, stunts cinematographyand all the crafts. Best movie of 2022
I'm gonna be honest, I don't blame Ana De Armas, the movie itself was just terrible (i suppose the Cinematography was not too bad), the film itself got a ton of Razzies including Worst Picture i believe. Now i'm not gonna defend Andrew Dominik for his Blonde film because it was indeed a huge misfire on his part. But I do think he's still capable of being a great filmmaker, like this is the same guy who made The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, one of the best modern westerns, but he screwed it up with his recent film.
I know I'm alone on this one... But I couldn't stand Mia Goth in Pearl. One of the few movies I walked out of due to her completely overacting. It was ludicrous to even sit through, but defending myself, I was so excited for Pearl because X was great fun, Pearl was just underwhelming.
Mia goth should’ve been nominated for pearl tbh
I disagree with the sea beast BUT wendell and wild should have been nominated
