Hmmm, out of all these films, I've only seen:

 

Dunkirk (didn't like it)
Get Out (good)
The Post (good)
Baby Driver (LOVED it)
The Last Jedi (meh)
Guardians of the Galaxy 2 (great)
War for the Planet of the Apes (best film of the year)
Logan (alright)
The Big Sick (great)

 

I need to see more of this year's movies!

Love The Shape of Water noms. The Phantom Thread love is also quite surprising, probably the biggest surprise of all, given the lack of guild support prior outside of Day Lewis's performance.

So Nolan got his first nomination then.

 

Karol

 

As a director yes, he previously got script nominations for Memento and Inception.

Other than Phantom Thread's screenplay nom, I'm pretty content with these nominations.

 

Also surprised that Williams got nominated for Star Wars over The Post. Here's hoping Greenwood takes home the gold!

And fitting of a nomination, but I don't know how much this film - which eschews character - is deserving of a win.

From a technical point of view it is very impressive. Mind-blowing even.

Tried listening to the Phantom Thread nomination in light of it’s nomination. 

 

Won’t be giving it another listen. 

 

Hooing for a Desplat win but wouldn’t mind any of the other 3.

Yeah, but only in the theater. Its not a film that lends itself to the small screen, at all.

 

The true test of a film is its ability to endure on the small screen. For people to want to show it to their children and nephews, for families to sit around to watch it, for people to catch it on TV and be captivated by it, etc...

No, that's a matter if the genre sometimes. Dramas would automatically win over monumental films for example.

In terms of the Academy's propensity for voting for "Best Picture"? Sure. But I'm talking about what should win.

Indeed. Which can only happen if it finds another life on the small screen.

It's been a while since all the score nominees really seemed to deserve it, but these do.  But, while I think Desplat will win, I'm not sure it's the best choice.  Not as enamored of it as some people are.

They are rather expected and not the least surprising (except for TLJ, which shouldn't have been nominated as 'original' score). Greenwood is really the only deserving winner from a musical/novelty standpoint.

I have seen almost all of these.

 

These SHOULD be the winners.

Blade Runner was my film of the year. However, the apes performances were better than many human performances this year.

What he undoubtedly meant, deep down, was that he wasn't concerned because you could still be seen visiting!

 

Er.... yeah... that’s what I meant

Jeez, an early low for 2018.

 

I haven’t seen the film but I listened to the OST and of the nominees it’s the only one I can’t say something positive about.

Two things:

 

Hopefully Hans Zimmer doesn't win for his sound design.

Hopefully Gary Oldman wins finally an Oscar (even if just because it's overdue and not because of the performance itself (greetings from DiCaprio)).

 

Then I'm happy.

It's dumb that Blade Runner 2049 isn't nominated for Best Picture and Best Director. Because it is fucking well directed and therefore a fucking good movie. Also Hans Zimmer got nominated for the wrong work. Shame on you Academy.

I think The Shape of Water is a rip off of E.T., the Extra-Terrestrial, a film that deserved to win a 1000X more 35 years ago

 

It's too bad movies like that never had a chance of winning back then

They have even less chance of winning today since the Academy and the whole Hollywood establishment habitually chooses winners that fit their political agenda. In the 90s, they had more whimsical and populist choices like Silence of the Lambs, Forrest Gump and Titanic. And the 2000s of course Gladiator and Lord of the Rings 3. The trend this decade shows no sign of stepping back to that.

 

And I know hardcore geeks are unforgiving for the Academy choosing Annie Hall over Star Wars (nerddom despises dramas or romantic comedies for some reason), but if it had to be beaten by something, I'm glad it was a Woody Allen film, because Annie Hall really is a good film -- although I think Manhattan might have been more deserving of recognition.

Don't worry, Manhattan is seen as one of the great American movies of all time. You don't need 10 Oscars to be revered.

Same pinch. What a tedious vacuous movie. Did not deserve to be 2 h 40 m at all. Even fucking Ridley Scott said so.
