He should have focused his energy campaigning for his acting from the beginning. This is by far his best performance, too bad it got sidetracked. I mean we have the SAG left (and BAFTA but thats going to Rami), if he wins that, that would really help him out + the media narrative of Bradley doing everything and being snubed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LastNight 5,678 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 This is so incredible. I keep thinking how just a few months ago many of us (myself included) were unsure about how this film would turn out and now our girl is nominated for an Oscar. AN OSCAR!! I knew she wouldn't be terrible but I didn't know that she would be so wonderful in it or that her performance would gain the praise and attention that it has. It's so easy to get caught up in the success of the movie and ponder on her awards win or loss, that it's hard to take a step back and really appreciate this moment for what it is. Whatever happens now is almost irrelevant, this nomination is a monumental moment in her career and also for us, her fans. When you think back through all the highs and lows, how she won the adoration of the world, lost it and won it back again, how she's transformed over the past 10 years...it's quite overwhelming. I wonder how she feels right now. I know awards are not everything but there is a larger cultural perception of what it means to be nominated for an Oscar that can't be ignored, regardless of how you feel about the awards themselves. It's similar to the Super Bowl; once you reach that level you'll always be thought of in a certain way as a musician, and now with this acting nomination she'll always be thought of in a certain way as an actress. It's solidified her status as a superstar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildAmerican 13,672 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Kinda annoying how Bradley was snubbed for Best Director but got in Screenplay. The screenplay and the way the story flowed was the weakest part of ASIB and the directing was one of the strongest parts... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrawberryBlond 14,102 Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 After everything that's gone down recently and what with Gaga now receiving a bit of backlash because she's been nominated for too many awards and has got too popular (when ASIB come out, the public was overwhelmingly positive and thought she deserved an Oscar and now they've gone the other way and hope she doesn't win), I feared that she may miss out on the chance of Best Actress because the Oscar voters didn't want to rock the boat of public opinion. But to see her achieve it just made me jump up and down with joy. Bradley so deserved Best Director, though. I think it's bizarre how the film had acting nominations for every major role, music nominations for the score, technical nominations for the filmmaking plus a nomination for the biggest award of the night, Best Picture...but no Best Director nomination. How does that even make sense? 3 hours ago, Morphine Prince said: Not seen the film but right from the moment of release, people were buzzing about her acting, saying this is Oscar material for sure. I knew she already won a couple of awards for this role from other ceremonies (she even beat Gaga and Glenn in a couple of them) and I think she might have more wins for this role than Gaga, if I recall correctly. That's why I thought perhaps the Oscars might throw her a lifeline even if many others didn't, so her exclusion was a bit of a surprise for me. Maybe it's a mixture of the Oscars notorious bias against horror movies and it being released in the middle of the year, far away from awards season, making it a bit of an afterthought? Black Swan and Get Out are the only horror movies I can think of that ever got any kind of Oscars recognition, so it's a hard sell. I can get that Oscar voters maybe aren't into watching gory films (I know I'm sure not) but could they even watch an edited version, with parts that are just focusing on the great acting, that being the case? It just seems like such an injustice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
