the best thing is, no one has any MI actors except me. muahahaha.
If Iron Dwarf had turned up I would have advised him to grab an MI actor quick. It was his last hope I think.
Payback for me rooting for daisy to win the genius?
I'm all for eliminating a threat!

Beale Street seems to be showing an initial release for 11 January.
Don't mind me, I'll be putting together my ransom note.

This weekend, we may possibly have all missed a dark horse for some awards... though it seems destined to be overshadowed by its splashier gay-conversion-therapy sibling with its big name celebrities, The Miseducation of Cameron Post is earning serious raves for its star Chloe Moretz. Alas... too late.

Oh dang, nice call INH, I didn't even realize she had been picked! Odds are the film gets rewarded more from the Indy Spirit type groups, but you never know at this time of year when someone can break out...

lol, that new category is awful.... the worst idea they've ever had... and it doesn't kick in until next next Oscars.
Spreadsheet is updated, as always check for mistakes, omissions, etc.

Nothing like honoring the most profitable African African production in history by creating a "separate but equal" category for it to win.

Glenn Close has earned RAVE reviews for The Wife, so kudos to Golden... he could have the Best Actress Oscar winner on his hands...

Most reviews are lukewarm at best towards the film but the praise for Close is off the chart. Best comparable would be Julianne Moore in Still Alice... insanely good performance in an otherwise by the numbers film. And Close has never won after a ton of nominations, much like Moore.

Yeah it doesn't strike me as your kind of movie, not enough grit. The critics love it though, if you like rom-coms.

For whatever it's worth, Mary Queen of Scots have apparently opted to skip all of the fall festivals... that doesn't bode well. I'll update the spreadsheet tonight
