Hopefully hell and high water doesn't get forgotten

Bridges is a shoo in for best supporting nom in my book.

Hopefully the movie is as well

Eh, really :patrice:

That would be the weakest nom since Jonah Hill in Moneyball, surely we will get better performance later this year.

For me the only thing that should maybe get a nom is the score.

How dare you.

Bridges reaction in the climax is his submission scene.

I'm checking for Fences hardbody. The Great Debaters and Antoine Fisher were dope, Denzel needs to get his due as a director.
He is underrated is his non action stuff

Telluride: Casey Affleck Feted as Sundance Sensation 'Manchester By the Sea' Hits the Rockies (Analysis)

Affleck, for his leading role, and Lucas Hedges and Michelle Williams, for their supporting work, appear to be strong contenders for acting Oscar noms.

On Saturday afternoon, the Telluride Film Festival screened a film that caused considerable chatter at the Sundance Film Festival back in January: Kenneth Lonergan's Manchester by the Sea, a drama about how the premature death of a man impacts his brother, played by Casey Affleck (an Oscar nominee for 2007's The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford), and son, played by Lucas Hedges (the very gifted 20-year-old son of About a Boy screenwriter Peter Hedges).

Pretty sure this thread is specifying it as 'the road to the Oscars' for a reason.:jbhmm:

You know, because the awards season doesn't begin with the Oscars.:jbhmm:

In fact, one would say the kick-off to the awards season is a certain Top Three film festival in the world that sees the premieres of multiple expected awards contenders such as La La Land, Arrival. Hacksaw Ridge, The Light Between The Oceans as well as continued exposure to high profile movies like Nocturnal Animals as we make our way to TIFF next week, often considered the biggest decider on how certain movies will be received with the Academy.

Of course this wouldn't be news to any true film connoisseur but I guess this is just the continued exposure of your plebian ass as a stupid idiot who lives in a bubble of painfully uninformed mainstream podcasts.:ducreux:

Mainstream podcast sounds like an oxymoron breh.

But I actually do listen to the indiewire one weekly :umad:

Plus a few other oscar movie ones

Nice job listing 3 of my top 5 most anticipated for the fall season though breh :smugdraper:

And my point was even though i support the premise of the thread having it as a sticky for that long is a bit much
