I'm glad Godzilla and The Boy and the Heron won, but it's silly that they didn't include the Mario Bros movie, but they included the garbage Elemental.


Whenever I see the word American in a movie... It's already synonymous with winning an Oscar.

Hoyte Van Hoytema is an academy award winning DP now (completely deserved). He was rejected from film school twice in the Netherlands and had to work in a soap factory, per his IMDb bio:


Hoyte Van Hoytema was born in Horgen, Switzerland. Van Hoytema is a Dutch-Swedish director of photography known for his work on The Fighter (2010), Her (2013), Interstellar (2014), and Dunkirk (2017). Van Hoytema always wanted to be a filmmaker, therefore he wished to attend a film school in The Netherlands, but was rejected twice. After the rejection, Van Hoytema worked in a soap factory, carpentry factory and even played in a band. Hoyte and his brother decided to go to Poland to visit their roots, considering their grandpa was Polish. He eventually went on to attend the Polish film school in Lodz, which has been attended by other notable film makers, with the most notable being Andrzej Wajda, Roman Polanski, and Krzysztof Kieslowski. At the later stages of Hoyte's education at the Lodz film school, Kieslowski was a professor there, who even supervised one of Hoyte's last projects. Hoyte left the Lodz film school early without having received a degree, but with many credentials. He started out with making documentaries. He later met someone who asked him to shoot a very low-budget film in Norway, which he accepted to do. This let Hoyte to film another film in Norway which was led by a a producer who was very active in Sweden. The producer offered Hoyte to work on a television show and another feature film. This started off Hoyte's career. He started to become a notable film maker in Sweden. His film 'Let the right one in' made him more known internationally.

You thought Elemental was garbage? I thought it was pretty decent. It had way higher critical reviews than Mario, which is generally a better indicator of Oscar performance than box office.

I probably would have given my vote to Spider-Verse, I thought the animation techniques they pioneered were really stunning. Boy and the Heron was also excellent though.

Godzilla's win was definitely the wholesome underdog story of the night. You love to see it.

Elemental seemed mediocre to me... I would give it a 7 rating... But for me the worst Pixar movie is Soul, definitely... Spiderman is good that they nominated it, but Suzume is a good movie.

Elenental is mid in the context of the Pixar canon, sure, but hardly a bad movie. I'd take it and Soul over any of the Cars movies.

Suzume was good, but Miyazaki is the only anime director that the Oscars acknowledges exists.

Excuse Me What GIF by Bounce


That‘s insulting to Cars 2, a movie that worked its ass off in being the worst shit Pixar ever made. I think you owe Cars 2 an apology, after everything it did in making sure to suck as much as humanly possible.

But no seriously, Soul is great. Especially for featuring a message that runs counter to what stories typically have when it comes to a message about life and your dream: “follow and work for your dreams, and they come true!”, which is nice and all, but sometimes doesn’t work out that way for a variety of reasons, and that Soul acknowledges this and shows how a life without that dream being fulfilled can still be filled with meaning, hope, and fulfillment. It’s a wonderful message for people of all ages.

across the spider-verse didn't stand a chance after splitting it into two movies, into the spider-verse is a perfect movie and package, but at soon as you split it into two parts it's not winning any awards individually.
The boy and the heron taking it seemed pretty obvious, but I thought both mario and elemental were better.

But how? People's choice action star of the year Rachel Zegler was not a part of this production. Weird,weird.

Well deserved win on Oppenheimer,I saw it in theatres when it came out,amazing cinematography and acting though a bit of a slog to go through.I think this is a movie better seen at home on your couch where you can take some breaks every now and then as it's full of exposition.

Also the Oscars suck!
 
Not watching until that Alec Baldwin western comes out and he gets to weepily accept "Best Cinematography" on Halayna Hutchins's behalf after not spending a day in jail.

I was going to get around to watching Oppenheimer at some point but considering it cleaned up at the Oscars it's probably lame.
 
Godzilla winning best VFX? lol wut

and I say this as someone from the industry. They definitely overachieved given the number of shots and relative small budget but there were several sequences where the compositing was spotty at best. They deserve the nomination, but not the win.

I'm genuinely surprised.

Great film and it deserved it. But I did not see it going to a movie with a straight white male Jewish lead character. Is that even a legal thing to do anymore in 2024?

Apparently so. Pendulum is swinging back.

It's no surprise since the writing was on the wall but I'm bummed Ryan Gosling didn't get anything for Barbie. No Emmy, no Oscar.

Very proud of Hoyte. I work in the Dutch film industry and i'm in a chain mail group with him and some other Dutch DPs. So him winning is kinda unreal!

I hated the final 3rd but at a certain point you need to just recognise that your opinion is batshit crazy. Everyone else can't be wrong.

Hoyte van Hoytema won an oscar for best camera work in Oppenheimer. Brings a smile to my face cause that guy taught me some neat stabilizing tricks with a rubber band during my internship more than 10 years ago. Guy is a literal saint.

That is so freaking cool. I've only met the guy twice but he left a very strong impression. Always super eager to teach me new stuff. Never pursued my career in film but seeing him still at it makes me happy.

Point of Interest was my favourite of the bunch but I can't stand Nolan's films generally so I'm an outlier I guess.

Very happy to see Godzilla Minus One win a statue.

I haven’t seen Poor Things or Godzilla yet but I’ve been meaning to.
Pretty good choices though.

Also do we have actresses again? I thought the term was actor now?

Happy for Godzilla. Hopefully, Dune will run away with the awards next year.

Edit: It's probably a combination of good lighting and maybe even some makeup but Keaton looks great for his age. Danny DeVito seems to be getting even shorter.

i don't really care too much about the fact he is irish, i'm just saying the story itself and the idea of a movie being a bout a straight white male who is jewish is one that i didn't think people would have the balls to award in 2024.

Because a film is made up of more elements than just its screenplay.
Eh, they just had to throw AF a bone. You can't tell me the best shot, best directed, and best acted film (as well as scored) wasn't also the best adaption of its source material? Oppo took too many of the top prizes to not earn that one as well, imho.
