Right, currently at $71M in the UK, only slightly behind Deadpool and Wolverine (73M) and Inside Out 2 (75M) and could surpass to become the biggest release of 2024 since it's still running. If it misses Best Film at BAFTA it definitely won't be because it's not incredibly successful over there lol.
The roots of the wicked story are based in the UK, Scotland, Ireland and Norway. This could already help the film in the baftas which I see it being nominated for.
The Broadway hit “Wicked” brought in £23.2 million in December, boosting its total gross to £55.6 million. The film is now the third-highest release of 2024, behind “Inside Out 2” (£59.2 million) and “Deadpool & Wolverine” (£57.5 million). So it wasn't NOT a hit in the UK.
That's impressive. This shows that the film was very well loved internationally. Considering what has happened at the LA fires, Wicked is going to have a massive resurgence in the awards circuit.
oh man I wish this were true but sadly and for some god forsaken reason they love Emilia Perez overseas and don't really care about Wicked. I'm still rooting that EP doesn't get anything but song.
You may want to change your animation rankings. Wallace and Gromit have never lost a BAFTA award. Also, regarding casting, I've learned from Awards Expert and Hannahcast that BAFTA is still jury nominated, and they have always put 1 SAG ensemble nominee and 3 best picture Oscar nominees that do not have SAG ensemble. Now that stat could change this year, but I think you may have too many SAG nominees.
Can’t believe industry supports a terrible film like Emilia Pérez. It’s so insulting to Mexican, terrible dialogue, music songs. The worst film ever on the awards conversation. People are just supporting it prevent transfobic accusations.
It’s pronounced Cor-ah-lee Far-zha. In French, “ge” makes a “zhhh” sound. And consonants are generally not pronounced unless followed by a vowel (or instances of liaison). So “at” would be nasalized into “ahhh.” This comment is coming from 4 years of studying French in High School and having an BA in French.
I don’t think you guys did enough research… Wicked is the 3rd highest grossing 2024 movie in the UK and could easily surpass the top 2 because they’re not that far plus they’re still running with great legs despite PVOD.
I think the same, Anora is still strong as a candidate, Mikey Madison can easily win at the Critics Choice and BAFTA, Mikey was already nominated 1 week ago in the category of "Rising Stars" therefore it is known that the BAFTA loved her performance and also Anora.
@brayanmamani5935 Exactly. I think people are reading into the Globes way to much. Anora is the most awarded film of the year. It baffles me how people can doubt it.
wicked has actually done really well at the UK box office, currently 3rd highest grossing release of 2024

BAFTA's are like a box of chocolates you never know what you're going to get.
And it’s usually white chocolate lol

Emilia Perez is no Chicago so idk if the comparison works
It’s no Chicago to really put Emilia in the same level as Chicago is just apalling
Hi there! Great video! French speaker here! Her last name is pronounced Far-zhah or Far-zjah (its a soft j/z sound). :)

God if JLC gets SAG and BAFTA…
JLC is a British Baroness. The Brits love their nobility.
Elordi was a jury pick. They won't nominate Harris without Nicole with non-jury. No way!
20:29 I think A Real Pain out, All We Imagine As Light in
These nominations will tell us whether or not Substance is a top 5 contender
Bob Dylan is much more beloved in UK than Elvis....
I can’t wait for the casting Oscar to be added next year
Kieran is sweeping cause he’s a lead and it’s a showy performance
And they like Succession in the UK they know of him
I think that you guys are underestimated Wicked at the baftas and Emilia Perez is divided people
Tbh, i loved wicked, but i do think that it's not a awards worthy film except for acting thogh i love they're acting
It’s dividing people online only not the industry we have yet to really see it.
The industry loves superficially "woke" movies like Crash and Green Book.
oh man I wish this were true but sadly and for some god forsaken reason they love Emilia Perez overseas and don't really care about Wicked. I'm still rooting that EP doesn't get anything but song.
Comparing Dune 2 with Two Towers is a crime. Two Towers >>>>>>>>> Dune 1&2 together

I don’t see why you think Dune 2 is going to underperform so much
Because it's already underperforming
6:17 it's with an 'a' sound at the end
Can’t believe industry supports a terrible film like Emilia Pérez. It’s so insulting to Mexican, terrible dialogue, music songs. The worst film ever on the awards conversation. People are just supporting it prevent transfobic accusations.
No. Dune 2 is not any better than Two Towers in anything.
It’s pronounced Cor-ah-lee Far-zha.

Your random lack of confidence in Borisov is amusing when compared to the confidence you had in Melton! Borisov is SO in.
Fargeat is kinda like Far-ya
People are sleeping on Mikey. She is winning.
Never in a million years. Anora is going to way underperform
@ashpie296 It's really not. Look at the Bafta long lists. Look at the critics wins. The Cannes win. Please stop with the stupidity.

No way. Anora is way overrated.
A Complete Unknown
Emilia Perez is a horrible movie. It deserves the Razzie.
