Neat looking FYC ad, heavily focused on Spike from Netflix that they put in the Hollywood Reporter

Netflix released the behind the scenes of the making of Da 5 Bloods. Love how Netflix is coming through with campaigning hard for the film and not forgetting about it. The film deserves it: It still has buzz, especially for best actor, so it makes sense that they would give it a push. Still it's nice that they are making ads for it.

Delroy Lindo interviewed today on UK television, reminding everybody that he is British but also bluntly stating he would never have had his career if he stayed in the UK. He probably isn't doing his odds of landing a BAFTA nomination any favors with this interview though. Wonder if his very blunt style of talking has hurt him on the campaign trail. He is very much the opposite of a schmoozer. He comes of like a strict school principal that can make you feel awkward. I like how much of a straight shooter he is, but I can see his persona putting off people who like their Oscar campaigning actors to seem more ingratiating.

Come on, Good Morning Britain, he's not even tipped for a safe spot for a nomination. If by some cockeyed fluke Boseman loses, it probably won't be Lindo's gain. I don't think Lindo's personality has affected him. I think Da 5 Bloods just hasn't been the industry's cup of tea.

The tweet for the British programme interviewing him literally refers to Lindo as a British Born Actor, and uses a good portion of the interview to discuss his British roots.I'm sure it wasn't his principle reason for doing the interview ( BAFTA campaigning is still Oscar campaigning, I guess), but it's an actual side effect of this interview that he is reminding people he is British. That is just reality. Nothing to get a bee in your bonnet about

Well, Da 5 Bloods was SAG's cup of tea (ensemble nom and Boseman) and that really would have been the most important and significant nomination for Lindo to land. Something went wrong there. He had everything he needed to get in SAG and missed, so I do think his persona may have hurt him, if even only a little bit. These things can make a difference, especially if there aren't many votes in it. But we'll never know for sure

But we'll never know for sure I think what hurt Lindo is he's got the earliest release date by far, and he's losing a lot of momentum to his late co-star when it comes to the discussion on the film itself. Netflix probably also is feeling confident enough in a Boseman victory in Best Actor that they probably don't feel the need to promote Lindo's film as much. And as much as BlacKkKlansman was a success story for Lee, he's historically never been beloved by the Academy.

He yet may still get in)or those other shows where Lindo missed. I'm specifically talking about SAG. If actors and other union members remembered the film enough to nominate it for ensemble and Boseman, then it's hard to fathom how he missed there, as the clear standout performance in the film. Your reasons may work for the other places, but the SAG miss was strange. It wasn't hurt by early release date there or anything else.

Honestly, I think the reason Da 5 Bloods got into SAG Ensemble was off the back of Boseman love more than anything else. They nominated him twice, and the films he was in twice. I can't say it was a calculated move to maximize the chances of recognition for Boseman because such a thing would be unprovable, but I would definitely wager some people were thinking about it, and the nominations are done by committee. It also helps that Nomadland was never going to be an Ensemble player and that Mank (another film that was assumed to do better here than it did) has been flagging.

I think It's a major stretch to think Boseman love got Da 5 Bloods an ensemble nom. They could have nominated him in Supporting actor and been done. They liked the movie enough to nominate it for their equivalent of Best Picture, and it is one of the best reviewed movies of the year with a strong eensemble. Boseman's less than 10 minute performance did not drag the entire movie to an ensemble nod. SAG voters liked the movie. Same for Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. Also one of the best reviewed movies of the year, and like Da 5 Bloods, in the thick of awards season as a BP contender by right. Boseman happens to be in two films strong enough to be in serious contention for BP nods. SAG just has different tastes to the Globes or other organisations.

As I said, it's unprovable, but I think the narrative has been undeniable surrounding Boseman, and the actors responded very strongly to the films he was in. I think it has less to do with Lindo rubbing people the wrong way (something that is entirely speculative and there's no real evidence for) and more to do with them really wanting to honor Boseman.

Well, we agree on one thing. Your theory is unprovable

It’s possible they just felt the ensemble overall was worth recognizing (especially since there isn’t a true lead) and best actor is very stacked and he simply missed the cut.

LOL! Spike really going through a Hollywood Royalty phase. Never would have seen that coming. Hee he's on the cover of this year's Vanity Fair's Hollywood Issue. I'm glad that there are actually POCs on it, but I don't know it looks like they just threw everything on there to make it look "cool" or "interesting" without rhyme or reason. So to me it looks like a bit of a mess. Still better than a lot of their other covers, but not as classic as the issue with Idris Elba on it, or the one with Catherine Deneuve and Meryl Streep on it.
