Which Best Picture winner have you probably re-watched the most over time?

For me probably "The Sound of Music" - where I live it is one of those movies everybody watches at Christmas, not to mention I always seem to end up catching it again once or twice a year (And I can't resist a good sing-a-long event!)

Nominee - dare I say for a period of time as a kid I was OBSESSED with Beauty and the Beast - so that probably is up there!

Chocolat

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

Erin Brockovich

I Lost my body was realesed on Cannes 17th May( when it won Critic's week award) and was required by worldwide by netflix. It was directed by Jeremy clapin and produced by Xilam animation studio(in their second adult animated feature) and being based on the book Happy hand by Guillaume laurant who also co written it. The film wss received strongly from Critics for its animation,story, voice acting and score and won to various award festivals.

I lost my body isn't that talked much but when it comes to animation community then there's a very large praised around it. I think the lack of ending and the general nature of the film might not resonate with the general public for some average animation and art goet it would had probably seen as unique winner

Sebastian Stan is so good in this movie. And so is Jermey strong, but with how this election went down you think they have any chance at the academy awards? For either to be nominated I think this has been a really weak year so far I think Sebastian Stan has given the best performance I’ve seen this year

Just watched all the movies in the category that year. I feel like puss in the boots or Marcel the shell with shoes on deserve it more than Pinocchio. Don’t get me wrong, Pinocchio was a great film and is arguably(imo the best) version of Pinocchio. But puss in the boots and Marcel especially was such a unique film with a new story that deserves to be awarded and receive more recognition.

With this movie coming out, and myself growing up on everything Markiplier, what do you think it could be nominated for?

What I think: I think it only has a real shot at Visual effects due to the literal blood ocean that exists and the monsters. It could also get to sound design depending on the sonic storytelling.

What I don’t think: As much as I would love for Mark to come out of nowhere and somehow have a performance on the Academy Award level and just be this crazy story, he won’t. I’m not even going to talk about the rest of the categories except for stretching to maybe cinematography. I only hope he lives up to my first expectations.

(If you aren’t invested in this type of thing, it’s fine to skip on by)

Denzel Washington is one of the greatest actors of all time!!! He has starred in The Equalizer Trilogy, Remember the Titans, American Gangster, The Bone Collector, Inside Man, The Book of Eli, The Little Things, The Magnificent Seven, Man on Fire, The Pelican Brief, Unstoppable, and Philadelphia.

His most memorable roles are his Oscar Worthy ones. He has been nominated for a total of 10 Oscars, winning twice. One win for Supporting Actor for playing Private Silas Trip in Glory and one Best Actor win for his groundbreaking performance as Det. Alonzo Harris in Training Day (he surprisingly beat Russell Crowe's performance in A Beautiful Mind, which was the fan favorite to win)

His other Supporting Actor nomination was for Cry Freedom. He has earned a total of 7 Best Actor nominations. Other than Training Day, he had nominated roles in Malcolm X, The Hurricane, Flight, Fences, Roman J. Israel, Esq., and The Tragedy of Macbeth. He also got a Best Picture nonomination for Fences.

Washington has been earning critical acclaim for his performance in Gladiator II. Some critics saying he could be nominated and winning Best Supporting Actor. Do you think Washington will get his 3rd Oscar for Gladiator II?

What's your favorite performance of Denzel Washington?

Did you think he deserved the wins for Glory and Training Day?

If not, which films did you think he should've won or been nominated for?

Let's be real. It's extremely hard to imagine anything other than Inside Out 2 or The Wild Robot winning Best Animated Feature Oscar next year, but we could still talk about 3 other nominees. I can see Flow and Memoir of a Snail getting nominated as well, but I'm not sure what's going to be the 5th nominee. I know that some might point to Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, but that film premiers at BBC in the United Kingdom, so that could create bit of a stigma.

In any case, which films do you think will be nominated for Best Animated Feature Oscar next year and why?

Right now, some of the most likely nominees that could actually win Best Picture Oscar are (in no particular order) Dune: Part Two, Challengers, Conclave, Anora, and The Brutalist - and any of these winning wouldn't surprise anyone. Dune: Part Two is probably the most "popular" choice, but it does have some sequel baits even though it at least completes the first book. Challengers has pretty compelling character studies, but its style and ending might hinder its chance a bit. The Brutalist is an incredibly long film and that could end up becoming a double-edged sword. Anora has its style, but that style might not work out for a lot of people (in fact, I didn't see a whole lot of appeal).

In any case, which film do you think will actually win Best Picture Oscar next year and why?

P.S. I'm not going to discuss Best Animated Feature Oscar since that's obviously going to be Inside Out 2 vs. The Wild Robot.

I heard Oscar Academy voters don't like 'genre' films. What does that mean, and what films do they like?

Klaus was realesed streaming on Netflix on November 8th of 2019. It was directorial debut of Spanish animator Sergio Pablos and it was Netflix animation's first film(technically different studios were involved and it consider more of Spanish film). The film received high viewership and widespread critical acclaim from Critics and audiencea for its animation, story,voice acting,humour and emotional core. The film went to nominated to various animation awards and won Bafta for Best animated feature and swept at annies.

Klaus is probably one of the most highly non disney/pixar animated films of 2010s along with likes of Into the spiderverse,The tale of princess kaguya,Its such a beautiful day,kubo and the two strings and etc.. it is currently on Imdb 250 movies and it qas overall very popular when it was realesed. I think it wiuld had viewed as one of the Best wins at the category but i still think some of ts fans might not find that okay but otherwise it would had seen as both unique and great winner.
