Maybe best score and best actor (big maybe) nominations, but c'mon man.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

Oh man. Argo and Lincoln. Those two are such total Oscar baits.

Here we go.

 

[richiek]

There's no way in hell DKR wins Best Picture.

Win? No. Nomination? Sure.

 

[Row]

I feel like I really missed something with TDKR, it didn't seem like a good movie at all. The plot was bad, and the little action there was wasn't anything special. Honestly looking past the high budget gloss, it was kind of a bad movie.

 

[Aurongel]

Not a chance in hell this will be nominated for anything outside of some technical awards, MAYBE.

Argo is my go-to pick for the Best Picture nominated Blockbuster.

 

[massoluk]

Here we go.

Hey, I meant that as a compliments.

 

[wetwired]

I loved it but they're dreaming.

Their best bet is Michael Caine for supporting actor.

 

[-griffy-]

I don't think TDKR even has a chance at the tech awards. Maybe noms, but no real shot at winning.

Say what you will about the overall movie itself, it's still a technical marvel. I'd expect cinematography (people in the industry are still impressed with what Pfister does with IMAX), sound, effects and maybe production design, perhaps even editing. But yeah, I don't expect it to be a big winner. Although it could still get the "last movie" recognition for the series as a whole.

And again, people are taking this way too seriously. You're gonna see ads exactly like this for FAR WORSE movies before the awards season is done. Alice in Wonderland had ads saying, "For Your Consideration in ALL CATEGORIES." Alice in Wonderland for goodness sakes.

And far worse movies are going to be nominated.

As I said in the TDKR thread. These are the Oscars we're talking about people. They are not about film quality. TDKR's chances at a nomination have little to do with how good or bad the movie actually is.

 

[Timbuktu]

All [technical awards] of which will be won by The Hobbit.

Apparently Ang Lee's Life of Pi may deserve a few of those.

 

[.GqueB.]

I thought TDKR was great but there's just no way it's getting a nomination considering the competition this year. Argo, Lincoln, The Master, Django Unchained, Zero Dark Thirty, and there's probably others I'm forgetting.

Super hard and incredibly close. Or whatever that movie was called.

I honestly don't think Pfister has a chance in hell of getting a cinematography nom this year.

Les Mis, Anna Karenina, The Master, Skyfall, Lincoln, Life of Pi and Django alone will all give TDKR a run for its money on the cinematography side of things.

 

[Dany]

The master will win cinematography or I will eat my own hat.

 

[Kevtones]

please no, what a pile

 

[coldvein]

boobs are the silver lining this year

what are those boobs gonna do huh?

 

[Tookay]

It might get a concession nomination for BP, but that's it.

And I liked the movie, in spite of its many flaws.

The Academy really blew it with TDK though.

Not really. Can you really say it deserves to be nominated more than the other five films? Maybe the Reader. But I would've put in the Wrestler instead.

I hope he does it for ASM, just so we can enjoy some more of Dagger's antics.

 

[Kusagari]

The only reason it would get a nom is to "apologize" for TDK not making it.

If a big budget film gets a nom, give it to Skyfall.

It's definitely a crowded field this year. I just think there's still something impressive about seeing TDKR in a true IMAX that no other movie this year quite reaches. Skyfall gets pretty close with it's IMAX presentation though, I'd easily say that's my favorite for a cinematography win.

 

[strafer]

everyone knows that the hobbit will sweep the academy awards

Benjamin Button was dreadful imo.

We'll have to wait a couple years for the sweep, like ROTK.

 

[Kusagari]

Wall-E was the real snub of 08 anyway.

 

[mjc]

MIB3 should win Best Picture though.

 

[bud]

i just realized something.




......




she looks like stiffler's mom.

 

[jtb]

Benjamin Button was dreadful imo.

Heh I actually agree, but... Fincher. :'(

Spoiler

Throw Wall-E in that slot. Still no TDK!

 

[Eidan]

Considering it was easily one of the most revered movies of its decade, and that no one is sitting around discussing Frost/Nixon or Milk four years later, and that the Oscars changed their entire nomination process based on snubbing it...I'd say yes. They fucked up in not nominating TDK.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

You magnificent bastard.

 

[JDSN]

Best music whatever.

The music direction was so good it was almost unfair how it elevated a decent movie to an awesome one.

Best Supporting Actress

BOMBOMBOMBOMBOM!!!!

Don't think so, buddy.

Well it was a shitty decade tbf

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

maybe some technical stuff, but it has no hopes at anything major.

 

[Kusagari]

TDK wasn't even the most revered big budget film of 2008.

 

[Ashhong]

Best Actress

and thats it.

Is this a joke? It must be. That's like the least likely award, even lower than Best Picture.

 

[Eidan]

.... What. One of the most revered movie of its decade?!? Since when? By who?

Movie going audiences? Are you really questioning how well liked TDK is? I thought that was pretty much a forgone conclusion.

 

[jtb]

Well it has been a shitty decade tbf

Shitty last three or four years, maybe. But 2000-2007 had loads of fucking great movies—decade tailed off hard, though, no doubt about that.

Movie going audiences? Are you really questioning how well liked TDK is? I thought that was pretty much a forgone conclusion.

So it's popular.

 

[Eidan]
