This thread just sounds like it would be the top 10 films of 2014 thread.

Into The Woods

Lol I don't think it'll happen. I think best actor will come down to him, Keaton and Oyelowo though

[Mr Rager]

American Sniper gonna sweep

 

[StraxStrax]

American Sniper gonna sweep

Not even the best war movie this year

 

[MartyMcFly]

American Sniper gonna sweep

It's not really getting the love I thought it would critically breh

American Sniper gonna sweep

That shyt is not getting any noms breh...Eastwood pulled a J. Edgar and tried to sneak a film in for the Oscars and that shyt is getting ignored

 

[the next guy]

Lol I definitely did.

And I still think you're underestimating Selma and the push it will undoubtedly get once it drops everywhere next week. Plus the social relevance of it. Not saying it'll be boyhood but I wouldnt be shocked

i hear ya breh..dat guilt might let selma win ()..but we'll see

i'm excited to see it..but the mudslinging has already started on that film and foxcatcher

Mudslinging about accuracy won't scare voters. Especially since the context is still on point. And obviously people have to give way for dramatic license and what more does Hollywood love than standing up for dramatic license?

Lol don't start that guilt thing breh. If the movie wins it'll be on its merits not because of guilt. It has the one thing going for it which I love: it encapsulates the year.

Brehs I think Selma might not win anything...two 2 black movies in a row? Especially black pain?

 

[Mr Rager]

I need to check out Boyhood though

 

[MartyMcFly]

Brehs I think Selma might not win anything...two 2 black movies in a row? Especially black pain?

It's too relevant though to be discounted and just too damn good. And right now, I see it as neck and neck with Boyhood if not a little behind just reading prognostications and going off my gut

Yeah it may get a nomination just because but it's not walking away with shyt

Critics are saying its ok at best, no glowing reviews on the film or performances...it may get a adapted screenplay nom, but I doubt it.
