Get Out
Lady Bird
Call Me By Your Name
Dunkirk
The Shape of Water

If you would've asked me a couple weeks ago, I would've put Three Billboards in a slot, but hearing people's varying opinions about that movie made me re-evaluate how I feel about it. I still like it, but the technical scale of Water made me put it in instead. I still need to see Phantom Thread and Darkest Hour though, so this might change in the coming days.

 

as great as good time is, everyone should see pattinson’s best performance in lost city of Z

 

It’s ok. Kind of disappointing tbh.

 

Strongly disagree with this, especially considering it was left out of director.

Argo, it ain’t.

 

Just the way my brain works I happened to notice a bunch of actors who appeared in more than one BP nominee in the last year

Timothee Chalamet (CMBYN, Lady Bird)
Michael Stuhlberg (CBMYN, The Post, The Shape of Water)
Lucas Hedges (Lady Bird, Three Billboards)
Bradley Whitford (Get Out, The Post)
Caleb Landry Jones (Get Out, Three Billboards)
Tracy Letts (Lady Bird, The Post)

 

last year Janelle Monáe and Mahershala Ali were both in Hidden Figures and Moonlight

 

If I were betting, I'd put my money on The Shape of Water or Three Billboards to win, but it's honestly still kind of early to tell.

 

Gonna answer my own question at 8/9 seen since the showing times of Darkest Hour got changed to where I’ll be highly unlikely to catch it soon.

Lady Bird
The Post
Dunkirk
Call Me By Your Name
Three Billboards

Which is probably the most unpopular grouping of the 5 in here

Logan and Coco I enjoyed/remember/think about more than these five combined, though. So I think this grouping of films nominated may just not be for me.

 

5 Best for BP:

The Shape Of Water
Get Out
Lady Bird
Dunkirk
Three Billboards

(Only reason three billboards is there is cause I still haven’t seen The Post, Darkest Hour and Phantom Thread)

My Personal 5 Favorite Films of 2017:

Blade Runner 2049
mother!
The Disaster Artist
Split
The Last Jedi

 

My personal favs

Lady Bird
Get Out
The Big Sick
Baby Driver
Brigsby Bear

 

Did Song to Song come out in 2017?

 

One of the best of 2017. The Academy has ignored Malick as he has gotten more abstract, so we do not have to endure the hit pieces on his work.

 

Yeah, I really enjoyed it. I think the ending was basically perfection. Just wasn’t sure when I came out. I’m fairly certain that post-Tree of Life Malick isn’t really going to be part of the conversation anymore when it comes to awards.

 

isn’t his next a WW2 historical drama? wouldn’t be so quick to rule that out.

Is it? I was unaware. That’s interesting.

 

yup
Terrence Malick Announces Next Film ‘Radegund,’ Based on the Life of Franz Jägerstätter

 

Wow. Color me excited

 

Nice rundown of all of Roger Deakins' losses. I forgot Lubezki won 3 years in a row.

 

What Chivo did on The Revenant really earned him that win, have to say. Whole thing was shot with only natural lighting and looked incredible.

 

It’s really his award to lose this year imo.

 

If he loses this year, he's never going to win and the Academy just has some kind of inexplicable bias against him. This is his best work ever, hands-down. My awe at every frame of BR2049 is due almost entirely to him. It's undeniable.

 

Absolutely, it’s time to give him what he’s worked so damn hard all these years for. Like I’ll be blunt, 2049 wouldn’t of been the same without him.

 

Wait, is Personal Shopper considered 2016 or 2017? That changes my top films for the year quite a bit.

 

After watching that I feel like despite losing so many times he hasn't really been snubbed. Looks like he's always lost to pretty respectable competition.
