Grace if movie mainstream movies started being more interesting then they will get nominated, That's why Get Out and Logan got nominations while Wonder Woman ( A fun but run of the mill action movie) did not, the standard movie goer does not care about slower more thoughtful movies anymore, Granted its not there fault studios stopped making it easy to see more interesting movies that earn awards. If mainstream Hollywood wants to win Oscars then put in the effort and make actually interesting movies like they used to.
A LOT of people think Wonder Woman is a special stand out film, and I pointed out some of the reasons here. While you don't have to agree, it's quite disrespectful of you to invalidate a large group of people's opinion.
A lot of people don't see the types of films that get nominated, which again is not there fault, if something like Lady Bird got as wide a release as Wonder Woman, People would say it deserves the nomination more.
That should be implied, plus that's just a way to discredit what I'm saying, There are many articles and studies that say what I just said when films nominated got wide releases people cared about the Oscars more
Mohamed Hesham You seem to fail to realize that just because they're nominated doesn't mean they have to win. Gal Gadot being nominated is something that should've happened. Should she had won? No. But being nominated is still a win on it's owning. GoTG Vol 2 weren't even that impressive. Just ordinary CGI that was later copied by Thor Ragnorak. Which simply proves that it's nothing special. You see, GoTG Vol 2 bding nominated is a win. But does it mean it's going to or deserves to win? No
Sebastien O. - As much as I loved 'Vol. 2' and 'Ragnarok', I somewhat agree. That being said, I still don't think 'Wonder Woman' deserves any Oscar nod. I really hope 'Logan' wins, though.
Sebastien O. Yeah I agree with Roger. As much as I loved Wonder Women, it wasn't really a oscar level movie. Gal Gadot isn't the best actress and she didn't really show alot of range in this movie. She isn't a bad one just not a oscar worthy one. I can't speak for the effects though, the vfx-artists are the experts on that topic. But in my opinion Blade Runner should win this year. Showing visuals I've never seen before on screen.
Hugh was great in Logan, but honestly for me Patrick Stewart was the real standout. Logan being angry and yelling was pretty normal for that character, but Professor X having dementia, as well as his last scene in the bed was so out of the norm for that role and Stewart gave a phenomenal performance
Yeah. Especially over Richard Jenikins and Christopher Plummer. It was like they just threw those two in there just because those specific movies were oscar-worthy instead of something like Logan. :/
RealHistory09 Chris Pine and Gal Gadot for Oscars? It isn't the teen choice awards. Chris Pine is a good actor but there was nothing amazing about his Wonder Woman performance and Gal Gadot is such an amazing actress that all the actors playing amazons had speak with Israeli accents because Gal can only with her normal accent. What range. After seeing Black Panther you realise what a bullshit actress Gal Gadot is.
Now that I saw it, Coco defenitely should have got that screenplay nomination. It never occured to me, but it's the definitive winner. I'll be very happy with Get Out, but damn, Coco was perfect
Call Me By Your Name is 100% the fan favorite. sure it has a fare share of haters over the age difference (which nobody has an issue with when it's a straight couple I should add) but people are really responding and resonating with the movie which I think is great.
You believe in the age of #metoo that critics and ordinary people would have no issue with the romanticizing of a relationship between an older man and an underage girl. You do see how ridiculous that is right? You referring to anyone who takes issue with the age gap as "haters" is entirely hypocritical.
How do you know it is the fan favorite??? To begin with tons of more people have watched 3 Billboards by now than Call me, and everybody I know that has seen it has loved it. Call me is great, some of the others are too. You probably mean that Call me has a very vocal and active young fanbase in the Internet. But that´s all we can state.
Remember me had a strong message within the movie and was integrated in the plot. This is me however was an arbitrary 'empowerment' song that halted the plot for a dance break. The song is good don't get me wrong, it just shouldn't win.
Well, "This Is Me" might be a generic pop song, but at least I remember the lyrics for it. Remember Me (as well as all the music in Coco) was forgettable. In fact, the music was the only thing I didn't like about the film.
Yea. It’s great to see her energy, beauty and damn that smile. Great star power, but she has a looong way to go to be on the level of an Oscar worthy actress.
I genuinely think that Sally Hawkins is very underrated. Her performance had me choking up during the Shape of Water, and I strongly believe she should win. Not saying a single word in the whole film (except for that beautiful dinner table scene) yet saying so much through her facial expressions and actions. I love McDormand and Robbie, but Hawkins deserves to win the award.
TheatreofSymphony I liked Chris Pine in this but Gal not a chance the other actors were so much better than her. The script wasn’t my favorite but I thought Pine did what he could
Jacqueline Lane how exactly is she's stiff as a board? her emotional range is equivalent to that of any human she could be sad she can be extremely happy extremely naive extremely serious she had great range of emotion and who is very believable for the character of Diana she definitely not was not "stiff".
Diana Finnerty exactly the really man qualifier for acting is do you believe the motions and the dialogue coming out of that person's mouth and everything that Gal Gadot as shown me in the world of Wonder Woman I believe her I when she is mad, i believe that when she is sad, I believe that when she is happy. This is a regular human that I am watching going through these experiences.
JESUS CHRIST! Why do people say that Christopher Nolan doesnt get emotions? Have they not watched most of his films? Are you really trying to say there were no emotions in inception? or Interstellar for gods sake?! This is simply a lazy way of hating on him.
No, people state this as fact. "Nolan does not do emotions", as an objective reviewer, there should be some objective truth to the statements, dont you think?
Actually, it is. REVIEWERS, such as Grace, give their opinion on the movie overall and all the story elements and so on. But they also give objective statements in the review that is not supposed to be informed by how they feel about something personally. such as "the directing was done really well, this scene was coreographed really nicely, the cinematography is very well done". When complaining about something, you could say"i dont connect with his movies on an emotional level" or you could say something that you present more as fact like "He does not do emotion well", see the difference?
Please stop mocking Margot Robbie for trying to “redefine herself”. You honestly can’t expect her to make a living solely on Harley Quinn, right? She’s such a talented actress and can play many diverse roles in brilliant ways. I’m not saying you’re unsupportive, I just think you should tone it down a little.
I agree, it wasn't at all just a retread of the original movie, it took the same concept and applied it in an entirely different manner. But as long as Deakins win Cinematography I think I'll be a win for BR2049.
Yes !!!!!Call me by your name is my pick. I hope Loving Vincent or The Breadwinner win (Is not going to happen but i can dream). Hoping something good for get out.
Ian Meadows I saw it and loved it. I actually thought some of the music in that movie was better than Coco's, specifically the finale song. Got me in such a great mood!
Grace the Oscars don’t base the winners and nominations of off what the movie goers like because the movie goers of this channel voted best film of 2017 to Wonder Woman.
I mean I think all of the nominated actresses deserve the win tbh, they were all fantastic. But that one scene in tSoW with Sally Hawkins... That was so incredible, I think she should win.
Lol all those jabs at Blade Runner and Dafne Keen yet you absolutely ate up every Wonder woman write-in category and grasped at straws to defend why it should have been nominated
I mean I liked Logan, but Dafne Keene really doesn't deserve an oscar nom lol. Like, she was really good for a child actor but I don't think she can really compete with the rest of the nominees.
Beatness I don’t agree that she should of gotten nominated either but my point is that not only is the write in category kind of a joke to begin with, but she seemed so dismissive of those choices even though they were popular picks while also trying to validate wonder woman because it supposedly got a lot of write ins
1. Lady Bird - 99% 2. The Shape Of Water - 95% 3. Get Out - 93% 4. Call Me By Your Name - 88% 5. Three Billboards Outside Of Ebbing, Missouri - 85% 6. The Post - 79% 7. Dunkirk - 70% 8. Phantom Thread - 65% 9. Darkest Hour - 45%
don't think black panther is going to get anything major next year since it's a comic book movie. the Oscars isn't at fault for not nominating more black movies it's more of Hollywood not letting black talent expand beyond slave/civil rights film which are the ones with black talent that only get recognized for these types of awards. wonder woman was good but not an Oscar movie (sure you can say all you want that it was an "important" film but really just because you feel it's an important film doesn't mean it need a Oscar.)
if you dismiss Blade Runner 2049 saying it was just carrying on blade runner couldn't you say the same about The Dark Knight? (and you seem to hold that in very high regard)
Inside Out, Toy Story 3, Up, WALL-E, Ratatouille, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Shrek and Toy Story were all nominated for either Best Original or Adapted Screenplay. It does happen, but definitely not enough.
Looking at the rest of the category..call me by your name, mudbound... all better screenplays. Logan fanboys will have to be happy with just the nomination
Logan should and IT WILL. Just look at the Dark Knight's Best Supporting Actor win! There's A REASON why the academy chose it in the first place!!!!!!!!!
How in the hell could you ever nominate Black Panther for an oscar??? For what? It would win the oscar for the worst cgi sequence in recent history, that being all the people dancing on the cliffs when BP and his opponent fight.
Shaba Laba Ding Dong Logan got nominated for best screenplay and actually deserves to be nominated unlike ww which does not deserve to be nominated at all in my opinion.
Great thoughts on Gadot. I still don't think she should be nominated, though. She did everything you said, but the performance was a little more uneven than other performances. How she approached the character was very good and significant, but the level of execution wasn't consistent enough, methinks.
Anyone who thinks Wonder Women should be up for an Oscar needs to have their head examined. Just because it made a lot of money with the general public does not make it Oscar worthy. The movie was horrible.
@Prometheus 1) Wonder Women grows up on the island. no women age just Diana. 2) Wonder Women watches a bullet go by in slow motion that then it kills a woman (horrible editing) 3) Wonder Women asks the man traveling with her "how do I know your telling the truth?" He then grabs her rope, wraps it around his arm. Shouldn't she have known to do that? Horrible acting and dialogue. shall I go on?.....
Diary of Thoughts I didn’t think so until I realized that it’s not about how she acted but the way she did it. She knows what should be right in the world and chose to put that in the film
I think Grace had a point when she said that movies usually won Oscars based on emotions. Under that logic, a WW nomination makes perfect sense, that whole movie revolved around emotions.
It's sad Okja wasn't nominated in any category, Tilda shoulda been nominated instead of Mary J Blige and Jake Gyllenhaal shoulda been nominated instead of Woody Harrelson.
This was fun. Thanks for doing it:) I can't believe you didn't shade Jessica Chastain when you talked about her :D I also can't imagine Molly's Game winning, I'd like that, It was great script but the movie didn't get much love from the Academy. They might award CMBYN here if they want to give it something.
Grace: Blade Runner does not do anything new so it shouldn't be nominated Also grace: wonderwoman is a great write - up because it uses the Disney princess formula. Hypocrisy, why does wonderwoman get so much praise for being a mediocre film while blade runner gets so little for a great one.
"Innocent until proven guilty", sounds so simple but yet coming from a man who hears a woman say this, I greatly appreciate Grace. Men (just like women) are far from perfect but society as a whole can NOT act like allegations automatically mean guilt no matter how conservative or liberal you are. Fun prediction video btw
Sadly anime films are always snubbed unless Studio Ghibli's name is attached to it. But A Silent Voice definitely deserved to be nominated. I'm almost as mad as I was when Your Name was snubbed last year.
ihateu890 ya, your name definitely deserved a nomination too. It's just so infuriating that the boss baby (and maybe Ferdinand too) got nominated over such a beautiful film. The Oscars definitely need to nominate anime movies. its getting ridiculous.
Grace, I want to be very sincere with you. I enjoy and appreciate your distinc look at the Hollywood industry, and I enjoy most of your videos, but I could not disagree more with your taste in awards. I'm from Spain, so I have seen a great number of film that I loved in 2017 that are not english-speaking (On the beach at night alone, The other side of hope), but my favourite films english-speaking films of the year are, without any particular order: Wonder Wheel, Columbus, Phantom Thread, Loving Vincent, A Ghost Stoy and The Killing of a Sacred Deer.
I loved Black panther but I don't think it's Oscar worthy, it's a great Marvel flick but let's be honest it's no Godfather or even TDK or Logan. It's still a great movie in my opinion.
Hi Grace, question. Do you think Dunkirk and Darkest Hour hurt Wonder Woman because of the similar genre. Also while I loved WW I think the 3rd act also hurt because it quickly switched to superhero action and cgi glory. What do you think?
Best Actor : Hugh Jackman (Logan) Best Actress : Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman) Best Supporting Actor : Patrick Stewart (Logan) Best Supporting Actress : Lucy Davis (Wonder Woman) Best Film : Logan Logan and Wonder Woman share out the rest of the awards
Who Knew 22 you have to defenitly watch more movies from last year if that's all you would nominate as wonder woman wasn't even the best comic book movie last year.
Love the video but Didn't you say Hans Zimmer never makes anything particularly memorable in ur dunkirk review? 😂😂😂i mean i agree wholeheartedly about the score winning tho but idk just saying
Grace one recommendation, watch Coco in Spanish with English subs of course, but please listen to the songs in Spanish which are so much more amazing and I totally agree that Coco should've been nominated for screenplay.
Grace, another viewer question for you. What is with all the films being released on the 21st of December this year? We have Bumblebee, Aquaman, Alita: Battle Angel, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Holmes and Watson. Seems a little strange to release all those films at once. Love your videos, I find them really informative and interesting. Love from Australia!
I think if Split was the psychological thriller it was advertised as being instead of degenerating into a superhero movie, James MacAvoy could have turned in what is a more deserving of a nomination performance. I just don't think the movie pushed the DID/MPD element far enough to get it out of him.
I saw quite a few movies last year, none that were nominated of course, aside from Logan regretebly. However the only film that had me sold and came back over and over in theaters was Wonder Woman. God I've watched that movie so much.
Let's be honest we wrote-in Jessica Chastain just to see Grace's reaction!😂
lol
😂😂😂 right
and Grace didn't sharpen her claws on Jessica this time so... 😁👍
Rommism Good for her, it's better when she's objective ! She probably saw the reaction to the latest It casting video ! She was kind of unfair to her!
Chrys Kes right on
Grace if movie mainstream movies started being more interesting then they will get nominated, That's why Get Out and Logan got nominations while Wonder Woman ( A fun but run of the mill action movie) did not, the standard movie goer does not care about slower more thoughtful movies anymore, Granted its not there fault studios stopped making it easy to see more interesting movies that earn awards.

A lot of people don't see the types of films that get nominated, which again is not there fault, if something like Lady Bird got as wide a release as Wonder Woman, People would say it deserves the nomination more.
Ben Ginsburg Well that’s your opinion...you should add that to your comments.
That should be implied, plus that's just a way to discredit what I'm saying, There are many articles and studies that say what I just said when films nominated got wide releases people cared about the Oscars more
I mean I think most people would not complain if well-reviewed small movies where easier to see
Wonder Woman is no where near Oscar worthy
Bryce Herbel Yet GotG Vol 2 is? Lol please.
Mohamed Hesham You seem to fail to realize that just because they're nominated doesn't mean they have to win. Gal Gadot being nominated is something that should've happened. Should she had won? No. But being nominated is still a win on it's owning. GoTG Vol 2 weren't even that impressive. Just ordinary CGI that was later copied by Thor Ragnorak. Which simply proves that it's nothing special. You see, GoTG Vol 2 bding nominated is a win. But does it mean it's going to or deserves to win? No
Sebastien O. - As much as I loved 'Vol. 2' and 'Ragnarok', I somewhat agree. That being said, I still don't think 'Wonder Woman' deserves any Oscar nod.

Sebastien O. Yeah I agree with Roger. As much as I loved Wonder Women, it wasn't really a oscar level movie. Gal Gadot isn't the best actress and she didn't really show alot of range in this movie. She isn't a bad one just not a oscar worthy one. I can't speak for the effects though, the vfx-artists are the experts on that topic. But in my opinion Blade Runner should win this year. Showing visuals I've never seen before on screen.
If there were 5 better performances by actresses, better than Gal Godot, why should she have got a nom? All that would have done is devalue the award.
Hugh was great in Logan, but honestly for me Patrick Stewart was the real standout. Logan being angry and yelling was pretty normal for that character, but Professor X having dementia, as well as his last scene in the bed was so out of the norm for that role and Stewart gave a phenomenal performance
Patrick stewart should've been nominated
Biggest snub of the Oscars imo.
Yeah. Especially over Richard Jenikins and Christopher Plummer. It was like they just threw those two in there just because those specific movies were oscar-worthy instead of something like Logan. :/
*Wonder Woman* is so overrated to me. Logan was such a superior film.
If any superhero film deserves an Oscar.
It's *Logan*
RealHistory09 it's a bit overrated but it's still good
Your in the wrong place. The WW circle jerk here is awful. Its a fine movie but in no way does it deserve any awards.
Logan is a better film than WW but if any superhero film deserve an Oscar is Dark night
RealHistory09 Chris Pine and Gal Gadot for Oscars? It isn't the teen choice awards. Chris Pine is a good actor but there was nothing amazing about his Wonder Woman performance and Gal Gadot is such an amazing actress that all the actors playing amazons had speak with Israeli accents because Gal can only with her normal accent.

RealHistory09 Hell yeah.
1. Saiorse Roman - ‘Lady Bird’
2. Margot Robbie - ‘I, Tonya’
3. Sally Hawkins - ‘The Shape Of Water’
4. Frances McDormand - ‘Three Billboards’
5. Meryl Streep - ‘The Post’
Now that I saw it, Coco defenitely should have got that screenplay nomination. It never occured to me, but it's the definitive winner. I'll be very happy with Get Out, but damn, Coco was perfect
pablozky21 I hope it doesn’t win best animated film though
Call Me By Your Name is 100% the fan favorite. sure it has a fare share of haters over the age difference (which nobody has an issue with when it's a straight couple I should add) but people are really responding and resonating with the movie which I think is great.
You believe in the age of #metoo that critics and ordinary people would have no issue with the romanticizing of a relationship between an older man and an underage girl. You do see how ridiculous that is right? You referring to anyone who takes issue with the age gap as "haters" is entirely hypocritical.
I dont have an issue with the age difference and I dont like the movie overall.
How do you know it is the fan favorite??? To begin with tons of more people have watched 3 Billboards by now than Call me, and everybody I know that has seen it has loved it. Call me is great, some of the others are too. You probably mean that Call me has a very vocal and active young fanbase in the Internet. But that´s all we can state.
sanyrub it was a garbage movie no more gay movies should ever win
It is a great movie, but if it is a fan favorite, based on the box office numbers most of those fans stayed home.
Aww Grace, Im glad you liked Wonder Woman so much, but I dont think it deserved to be nominated at all.
William Defoe is extremely underrated and The Florida Project is a MUST SEE FILM
im not in the "gal gadot is a bad actress camp" cos i thought she was great in the role but to say she deserves a best actress nod is kinda crazy
I agree. She's not a bad actor. But she also isn't Oscar-worthy, which is okay! Most actors fall into the "decent" category!
Why do people think This is Me should win Best Original Song? Remember Me is much better.
MegaSoulHero absolutely agree. This is Me is a generic pop song
As much as I love "This is Me", "Remember Me" is better.
Remember me had a strong message within the movie and was integrated in the plot. This is me however was an arbitrary 'empowerment' song that halted the plot for a dance break. The song is good don't get me wrong, it just shouldn't win.
Well, "This Is Me" might be a generic pop song, but at least I remember the lyrics for it. Remember Me (as well as all the music in Coco) was forgettable. In fact, the music was the only thing I didn't like about the film.
MegaSoulHero because it's the predicatable choice for the oscars of course this is me is going to win
Grace: “I hated Phantom Thread” five minutes later: “I enjoyed The Boss Baby very much”
What the heck is this channel
Gal Gadot gave a good performance, but she's hardly Oscar worthy.
Yea. It’s great to see her energy, beauty and damn that smile. Great star power, but she has a looong way to go to be on the level of an Oscar worthy actress.
rhythmoriented she could get there at some point. She has the screen presence. She needs more experience and the right role
Logansolo Howlett-Jones yea. Maybe even comedy.
Yael Zyc lol. Oh well. I actually liked Gal in a small dramatic role in Triple H last year, now that I remember.
Good performance? She can't act to save her life.
I genuinely think that Sally Hawkins is very underrated. Her performance had me choking up during the Shape of Water, and I strongly believe she should win. Not saying a single word in the whole film (except for that beautiful dinner table scene) yet saying so much through her facial expressions and actions. I love McDormand and Robbie, but Hawkins deserves to win the award.
A lot of people hated Mother but Jennifer Lawrence deserved that Nomination for her performance
Can we just drop Wonder Woman from ANY awards conversation altogether? For God’s sake it’s laughable.
TheatreofSymphony I liked Chris Pine in this but Gal not a chance the other actors were so much better than her. The script wasn’t my favorite but I thought Pine did what he could
Wonder Woman is MTV Film award fodder at best.
Aidan Vickery Make that Kid’s Choice
Logan 100%
I wrote in The Florida Project, but I'm so happy to see Call Me By Your Name taking the award. Well-deserved.
I hope Ingrid goes west gets your attention
Night Wing that was a great film tbh
Gal did was stiff as a board... you give her.way too much credit. J Law's performance was amazing. She have been in or Chastain. Anyone over Streep..
Jacqueline Lane how exactly is she's stiff as a board? her emotional range is equivalent to that of any human she could be sad she can be extremely happy extremely naive extremely serious she had great range of emotion and who is very believable for the character of Diana she definitely not was not "stiff".
I believe gal when she screamed for Steve Trevor when he died.
Diana Finnerty exactly the really man qualifier for acting is do you believe the motions and the dialogue coming out of that person's mouth and everything that Gal Gadot as shown me in the world of Wonder Woman I believe her I when she is mad, i believe that when she is sad, I believe that when she is happy. This is a regular human that I am watching going through these experiences.
Thank god someone is recognizing that Jlaw should have been in Streep's place
JESUS CHRIST! Why do people say that Christopher Nolan doesnt get emotions? Have they not watched most of his films? Are you really trying to say there were no emotions in inception? or Interstellar for gods sake?! This is simply a lazy way of hating on him.
Kalso Nofel it's called an oPiNiOn
No, people state this as fact. "Nolan does not do emotions", as an objective reviewer, there should be some objective truth to the statements, dont you think?
Kalso Nofel a review is not objective though ...
Actually, it is. REVIEWERS, such as Grace, give their opinion on the movie overall and all the story elements and so on.

When complaining about something, you could say"i dont connect with his movies on an emotional level" or you could say something that you present more as fact like "He does not do emotion well", see the difference?
Captain Underpants for Best Animated Feature would've been neat to see. It was actually a pretty damn good movie.
So wait grace. You disliked the third act of get out yet you don’t mention a thing about the third act of Wonder Woman?
Toppingsaucer7 I liked the third act. Except for all the love talk
Please stop mocking Margot Robbie for trying to “redefine herself”. You honestly can’t expect her to make a living solely on Harley Quinn, right? She’s such a talented actress and can play many diverse roles in brilliant ways. I’m not saying you’re unsupportive, I just think you should tone it down a little.
Its already been a year since the last Oscars? It feels like it was yesterday.
Roman Reed In two days it will have been.
Gal gadot was fine in the movie but nowhere near Oscar quality. She just isn’t that good an actress
sufjan stevens deserves the best song win and thats the tea
Did she just say that Blade Runner 2049 was not new? Did you watch the film? It builds off the original so much and surpasses it with ease
I agree, it wasn't at all just a retread of the original movie, it took the same concept and applied it in an entirely different manner. But as long as Deakins win Cinematography I think I'll be a win for BR2049.
Beatness I agree. Denis was snubbed for best directing though. It makes me sad, but hopefully his time comes soon
if it surpassed the original, the original most had been realllllyyyy bad.
Nico Sanchez OK Nico
@@nicosanchez8261 Nico is my dogs name. You’re a dog.
Yes !!!!!Call me by your name is my pick. I hope Loving Vincent or The Breadwinner win (Is not going to happen but i can dream). Hoping something good for get out.
Coco definitely deserves the original screenplay. I actually didn't think about it till now. And it is very original and was very well done.
Ian Meadows I saw it and loved it. I actually thought some of the music in that movie was better than Coco's, specifically the finale song. Got me in such a great mood!
For best original score I would've liked to see Murder on the Orient Express nominated the score gave you so many feelings when watching the film
I just smile when Grace says these two words: "Jessica Chastain."
Grace the Oscars don’t base the winners and nominations of off what the movie goers like because the movie goers of this channel voted best film of 2017 to Wonder Woman.
Ocesam Roblox Wonder Woman was my favorite film of 2017. It’s my opinion. Yours is different. Get over it
"The Florida Project" was robbed of a nomination -- arguably the best film 0f 2017.
11:34 Overrated: Margot Robbie
Underrated: Sally Hawkins
I would vote for Sally Hawkins if I had a legitimate vote
Agreed that Margot's performance in I, Tonya is overrated. I don't think its oscar worthy. I hope Saoirse wins.
I mean I think all of the nominated actresses deserve the win tbh, they were all fantastic. But that one scene in tSoW with Sally Hawkins... That was so incredible, I think she should win.
Lol all those jabs at Blade Runner and Dafne Keen yet you absolutely ate up every Wonder woman write-in category and grasped at straws to defend why it should have been nominated

A half an hour video 😍
CMBYN will obviously win the best adapted screenplay. Don't you follow the other award shows?
You people voted for Gal Gadot, lololol.
Ocesam Roblox you wrote laugh out loud out loud out loud. What does that even mean
i still don't get why "important = good"
1. Lady Bird - 99%
2. The Shape Of Water - 95%
3. Get Out - 93%
4. Call Me By Your Name - 88%
5. Three Billboards Outside Of Ebbing, Missouri - 85%
6. The Post - 79%
7. Dunkirk - 70%
8. Phantom Thread - 65%
9. Darkest Hour - 45%
Drink every time Grace rants about Wonder Woman. Your liver won't make it.
Wonder was great but I’m not understanding this whole Oscar push
Armie Hammer doesn't look in his early twenties, that's a problem for a film like this
I really liked Dafne Keen in Logan. That movie doesn't work at all if she isn't believable AND sympathetic in that role.
Great prediction by you and the polls!
I don't find the academy awards that interesting this year so I'll probably skip it
don't think black panther is going to get anything major next year since it's a comic book movie. the Oscars isn't at fault for not nominating more black movies it's more of Hollywood not letting black talent expand beyond slave/civil rights film which are the ones with black talent that only get recognized for these types of awards. wonder woman was good but not an Oscar movie (sure you can say all you want that it was an "important" film but really just because you feel it's an important film doesn't mean it need a Oscar.)
if you dismiss Blade Runner 2049 saying it was just carrying on blade runner couldn't you say the same about The Dark Knight? (and you seem to hold that in very high regard)
Tom Padget BR 2049 was Magic.
CAll me by your name!!!
Never voted but these were very interesting choices. Thanks for discussing Grace.
I’m sooo happy with all The I, Tonya support and MARGOT ROBBIE
Congrats on 700k, Grace!
Inside Out, Toy Story 3, Up, WALL-E, Ratatouille, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Shrek and Toy Story were all nominated for either Best Original or Adapted Screenplay. It does happen, but definitely not enough.
LOGAN better win i swear!!!!!
It doesnt stand a chance, nor should it
Vann Guarnieri why shouldn't it? It was one of the best films of 2017!
Looking at the rest of the category..call me by your name, mudbound... all better screenplays. Logan fanboys will have to be happy with just the nomination
Vann Guarnieri fanboys?
Logan should and IT WILL. Just look at the Dark Knight's Best Supporting Actor win! There's A REASON why the academy chose it in the first place!!!!!!!!!
How in the hell could you ever nominate Black Panther for an oscar??? For what? It would win the oscar for the worst cgi sequence in recent history, that being all the people dancing on the cliffs when BP and his opponent fight.
If Logan and WW didn’t get a nomination neither should black panther
Shaba Laba Ding Dong black panther’s costume design was something else
Shaba Laba Ding Dong Logan got nominated for best screenplay and actually deserves to be nominated unlike ww which does not deserve to be nominated at all in my opinion.
Great thoughts on Gadot. I still don't think she should be nominated, though. She did everything you said, but the performance was a little more uneven than other performances. How she approached the character was very good and significant, but the level of execution wasn't consistent enough, methinks.
Anyone who thinks Wonder Women should be up for an Oscar needs to have their head examined. Just because it made a lot of money with the general public does not make it Oscar worthy. The movie was horrible.
Lol 😂😆 sooo true
@Prometheus 1) Wonder Women grows up on the island. no women age just Diana. 2) Wonder Women watches a bullet go by in slow motion that then it kills a woman (horrible editing) 3) Wonder Women asks the man traveling with her "how do I know your telling the truth?" He then grabs her rope, wraps it around his arm. Shouldn't she have known to do that? Horrible acting and dialogue. shall I go on?.....
Diary of Thoughts I didn’t think so until I realized that it’s not about how she acted but the way she did it. She knows what should be right in the world and chose to put that in the film
I think Grace had a point when she said that movies usually won Oscars based on emotions. Under that logic, a WW nomination makes perfect sense, that whole movie revolved around emotions.
Diary of Thoughts check ur head......its not horrible.....
700k+ Congraduatluons! Love your videos epically anything super hero 💯
It's sad Okja wasn't nominated in any category, Tilda shoulda been nominated instead of Mary J Blige and Jake Gyllenhaal shoulda been nominated instead of Woody Harrelson.
This was fun. Thanks for doing it:) I can't believe you didn't shade Jessica Chastain when you talked about her :D I also can't imagine Molly's Game winning, I'd like that, It was great script but the movie didn't get much love from the Academy. They might award CMBYN here if they want to give it something.
Grace: Blade Runner does not do anything new so it shouldn't be nominated
Also grace: wonderwoman is a great write - up because it uses the Disney princess formula.
Hypocrisy, why does wonderwoman get so much praise for being a mediocre film while blade runner gets so little for a great one.
I don't understand how she can think that Blade Runner 2049 did nothing new when it's so dramatically different from the original movie.
To Be Human -- Sia.
That's why Wonder Woman should win best album. This one song
I don't think there is a best album. Just best score, which is different.
Here are the snubs:
1. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets for Best Visual Effects
2. The Lego Batman Movie for Best Animated Feature.
Logan better win!
"Innocent until proven guilty", sounds so simple but yet coming from a man who hears a woman say this, I greatly appreciate Grace.
Men (just like women) are far from perfect but society as a whole can NOT act like allegations automatically mean guilt no matter how conservative or liberal you are.
Fun prediction video btw
I recently saw a silent voice and feel its snub in the animation category is absurd. If you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor!!!!
Sadly anime films are always snubbed unless Studio Ghibli's name is attached to it. But A Silent Voice definitely deserved to be nominated. I'm almost as mad as I was when Your Name was snubbed last year.
ihateu890 ya, your name definitely deserved a nomination too. It's just so infuriating that the boss baby (and maybe Ferdinand too) got nominated over such a beautiful film. The Oscars definitely need to nominate anime movies. its getting ridiculous.
Ian Meadows really? Huh i heard it was up for nominations this year
TIMOTHEE CHALAMET 2 WIN
I agree with the write-ins so much
I'm not much of an Oscars fan, but I'll try to watch it.
Grace, I want to be very sincere with you. I enjoy and appreciate your distinc look at the Hollywood industry, and I enjoy most of your videos, but I could not disagree more with your taste in awards.
I'm from Spain, so I have seen a great number of film that I loved in 2017 that are not english-speaking (On the beach at night alone, The other side of hope), but my favourite films english-speaking films of the year are, without any particular order:
Wonder Wheel, Columbus, Phantom Thread, Loving Vincent, A Ghost Stoy and The Killing of a Sacred Deer.
Logan should win
Does anyone here think Murder on the Orient Express deserved a nomination for best original score
F15 5 No, it deserves a nomination for Best Eggs! Those eggs were perfect 😏
SPLIT!?
James macawoy or how you spell his name, was great in it. He played several characters, with completely accurate acting, emotions and charm.
Great channel by the way
Logan PLS
Has the oscars not happened? Cause I got an ump coming movie slip from a movie rental place that says who won
I loved Black panther but I don't think it's Oscar worthy, it's a great Marvel flick but let's be honest it's no Godfather or even TDK or Logan. It's still a great movie in my opinion.
So, if Wonder Woman had a role in Dunkirk that would be a winner on many categories!
Hi Grace, question. Do you think Dunkirk and Darkest Hour hurt Wonder Woman because of the similar genre. Also while I loved WW I think the 3rd act also hurt because it quickly switched to superhero action and cgi glory. What do you think?
Lol, WW was never going to be nominated.
Ocesam Roblox I believe that WW is a good solid movie worth the attention of the academy in at least one category
Best Actor : Hugh Jackman (Logan)
Best Actress : Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman)
Best Supporting Actor : Patrick Stewart (Logan)
Best Supporting Actress : Lucy Davis (Wonder Woman)
Best Film : Logan
Logan and Wonder Woman share out the rest of the awards
Who Knew 22 I'm guessing you've seen no other films in 2017
Who Knew 22 you have to defenitly watch more movies from last year if that's all you would nominate as wonder woman wasn't even the best comic book movie last year.
So so soooooooo love this channel
I hated I Tonya but Sebastian Stan deserved a nomination for Best Supporting Actor. He was fantastic in the movie.
Shape of water, Lady Bird, The Disaster Artist, The Handmaid's Tale (TV), all win something
Love the video but Didn't you say Hans Zimmer never makes anything particularly memorable in ur dunkirk review? 😂😂😂i mean i agree wholeheartedly about the score winning tho but idk just saying
Josef Alaalatoa she's so hypocritical
Maybe the other nominees in that category are weak, in her eyes, so she put Dunkirk as the best there.
georgiehensley Yeah i was thinking the same just couldn't be bothered adding that to the comment😂😂😂
She said in the review that she really liked the score for Dunkirk, and that it's one of the few Zimmer scores that has stood out to her.
My pick is darkest hour
Grace one recommendation, watch Coco in Spanish with English subs of course, but please listen to the songs in Spanish which are so much more amazing and I totally agree that Coco should've been nominated for screenplay.
Your great! Love your videos!
The Three Billboards!!!!
Grace, another viewer question for you. What is with all the films being released on the 21st of December this year? We have Bumblebee, Aquaman, Alita: Battle Angel, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Holmes and Watson. Seems a little strange to release all those films at once. Love your videos, I find them really informative and interesting. Love from Australia!
I think Diane kruger should have been nominated for best actress. She was fantastic in In the Fade.
I think if Split was the psychological thriller it was advertised as being instead of degenerating into a superhero movie, James MacAvoy could have turned in what is a more deserving of a nomination performance. I just don't think the movie pushed the DID/MPD element far enough to get it out of him.
Marry Poppins returns teaser trailer
Still don't get it why BR2049 didn't get the nom
MsJilsephonie They don't like hard sci fi.
I saw quite a few movies last year, none that were nominated of course, aside from Logan regretebly. However the only film that had me sold and came back over and over in theaters was Wonder Woman. God I've watched that movie so much.
James McAvoy is the most underrated actor working today
25:40 You didn't like the third act of Get Out but you liked the third act of Wonder Woman?
Let's be honest - Gal Gadot couldn't win an acting award if there was a award for 'Best Wonder Woman actress' and she was the only nom.
