I think there's no way Hopkins wins Actor. Maybe Boseman doesn't have 80+% of the vote like it seemed before, but still no way he's losing this, even if a surprise like that may be enticing.On the other hand, I do think Mulligan (unfortunately) has the edge over Davis after winning the Spirit. Mhmm, good point.

You know he's hoping the Rudin ordeal derails The Tragedy of MacBeth. Next up: Hoping the reviews are bad. Yeah, I'm hoping an actor that I like a lot - that I rank in my all time American film top 20 - who've I've paid money to see on Broadway (more than you!) gets his film "derailed" ............Yeah, ok...........I'm "hoping" for that right , yeah, ok ...... Go like your circle jerk buddies post or whatever it is you do here ............and as Nas told Jay - don't disrespect me, blatant or indirectly......I just Ethered you huh?

Those threads are gonna be great. Also I have no idea how anyone can assume that Rudin would affect Macbeth's Oscar chances, especially if his presence has been muted / completely thrown off. I mean if Bryan Singer couldn't hurt Bohemian Rhapsody, not a chance in hell it happens with Macbeth as well. Wild!

Yoooooo, some of these Twitter replies are straight up unhinged. WTF? Film Twitter is really the best at talking shit about a film they haven't even seen. This ! I bet the majority of people who are shitting all over Hopkins' win have not even seen The Father !

Congrats to all the winners, especially happy for La Frances, Sir Tony and Kaluuya, as far as I'm concerned, they were the best of their category so they deserved to win. I can understand why some people aren't totally happy to see McDormand with 3 Best Actress Oscars (on only 3 Best Actress nominations) but she knocked it out of the park each times (even if Emily Watson should have won in 96 imo) but yeah seeing her and Glenn Close on the same event, one with 3 oscars, the other with 0....it's unfair but it is what it is, Frances is loved and she always find herself in very strong and competitive films, playing great characters and having no insurmountable competitions in her category, so she has paths to wins, it's a combination of a lot of things, luck include.

This misrepresents what was said I think: I don't think anyone said Rudin would affect Oscar chances in terms of nominations right? Just that it is bad press and I said it could affect wins in combination with the type of film it is AND the amount of wins the 2 principle people in the leads already have. What is "wild" is that people are commenting that it will NOT affect the film at all - no one knows that at all - when the story isn't even finished yet either.......! Let's just make sure we're on the same page after all and what "Oscar chances" means.........and.......... .........this is not like the Malek example either unless a "Macbeth" film is going to gross 1 Billion Dollars worldwide..........

Had no horse in this race (as I didn't watch many 2020 outputs) but how could you not get curious with these responses here!
It was a mess at times (an oddly inappropriate "In Memoriam") but overall I liked it better than other years... not interrupting the speeches with music was a good choice and so was those personal stories from/regarding each nominee, screen stars and tech people alike. Thomas Vinterberg in particular seems more interesting than his films now. From Daniel Kaluuya shouting out to his parents getting busy to the composers of Soul and McDormand's speeches... there was a surreality to it all which I preferred to the usual stuff.

I disagree. The issue is that Mank, Trial and Ma Rainey were all movies that had plenty of people that liked them, but very few who loved them. Being on Netflix or not wouldn't have changed much. The Academy often give above the line Oscars to films people like, but don't neccesarily love. Green Book, Bohemian Rhapsody etc . Does anyone really care much about something like Argo today? Yet that won Best Picture. I do think Mank, Trial and Ma Rainey would all have stood more chance of above the line success with a traditional studio. They are all traditional Oscarbait. Argo was beloved- not among the public, but the Academy, which is mostly made of narcisists who wanted to imagine themselves the heroes. BH was crazy popular, though mostly due the subject matter. GB wasn't as popular, but the anti-Netflix backlash pushed it over the line against Rome, although the latter had other things against it.

What we do know is that A24 has taken Rudin off the film, distancing him from it long before the next season begins. He won't be able to win Oscars for it, and his participation will be minimised and there will be other producers credited for doing a more hands on role who will be able to win Oscars for it. So you getting all excited and jizzing like crazy at the prospect of Rudin (who no longer has any official association with the film) taking down The Tragedy Of Macbeth just feels sadly predictable from you. And everyone knows why you are doing it as well (it begins with D ) .You were actually better off sticking with your original take that Shakespeare films don't always connect with the Academy (But if one can, it's with this cast and director), as you are wildy overselling the Rudin thing out of hope, more than pragmatism.

So you getting all excited and jizzing like crazy .............and that mental image of me makes you what............. all tingly and moist? Let's see how it plays out - Rudin's name removed is fine - my point is that bad press to the movie is a result yet to be seen potentially for wins - not a SOLE factor but possibly........... ymmv and apparently does - no need to discuss it further. At least .......not with .........you.

And I don't owe Good God a damned thing,and he can answer his own damned questions. Happy to: 1. Why does Washington have 0 BAFTA nominations when Poitier has 6?A. Apparently because Washington movies were ineligible or had bad release dates a couple of times, and he was not adjudged to be among the best 5 performances of his category the other times. On the other hand, Poitier was beloved and his work was respected enough to garner him the most Best Foreign Actor nominations in BAFTA history. 2. Why has Washington never even managed a London critics nomination?A. Probably because London critics never thought Washington has given one of the 5 best performances in his category. 3. If Washington were so popular in the UK, why has he never managed even a $20M gross there?A. Because he actually isn't that famous or popular. Even action guys like Liam Neeson and Gerard Butler have managed $20M grosses in the UK. As for the whole Scott Rudin thing, I don't think whatever is going on with him will affect the acting awards chances of any of his movies (though I am not short-sighted enough to completely rule it out, either), but let's also not act like his name won't be associated in any way:

So apparently Olivia Colman was actually supposed to accept Hopkins's award on his behalf but the ceremony just ended.
