And kudos to the Academy for the nomination for best screenplay! Saw The Artist the other day and loved it!

njskaguy33 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Good review of one of the best films of the year! And kudos to the Academy for the nomination for best screenplay! Saw The Artist the other day and loved it! I was convinced Hugo would be my favorite film of the year, but The Artist is really making it difficult for me. Seeing The Artist in exactly two and half hours! Not sure if I'll get around to reviewing it, but my Oscar Picks and Preview should be done by Tuesday. Will it leapfrog over Hugo as my pick for Best Picture? We will see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njskaguy33 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) The 2012 Oscar Nominations and Picks The holidays have passed, our waistlines have rebounded and the prestige season is in full swing. This year’s Oscar nominations run the gambit from surprising to expected, making this a much more difficult ceremony to pick than last year. But first, here are the particulars: When – February 26th, 7:00 EST on ABC Where – The Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, California Hosting – After Eddie Murphy stepped down due to a gay slur scandal involving former producer Brett Ratner, Billy Crystal returns as the sole host of the ceremony. This will be his ninth Oscars, a safe bet from producer Brian Grazer. Will his hosting be classic comedy or the same old thing? My guess is the same old thing. Category Changes – The Best Picture nominees can now range anywhere from 5 to 10. In the past two years, the board named 10 Best Picture noms, a few of them questionable. The board now reserves the right to only pick films they feel deserve the recognition without having to “round out” the number. Also, the Best Animated Feature category is now permanent. In the past, the board could decide to not include the category based on merit but it’s now an every year fixture. There were also eligibility changes made to Best Documentary Feature and Best Visual Effects. NOTE: Of all of the big ticket films nominated, I have not seen The Iron Lady or Albert Nobbs. I’ll be seeing at least one of these before the ceremony and if I comment on them, it will be based on buzz and hearsay only. If my opinion changes after my viewing, I’ll update the guide. Also, I will not be picking any of the Short Film categories nor the Documentary categories, as I didn’t get a chance to see any of the nominees. And The Nominees Are… Best Visual Effects Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 Hugo Real Steel Rise of the Planet of the Apes Transformers: Dark of the Moon My Take : While I’ve only seen Hugo and Rise out of the nominees, this is one you can pick from the trailers. Real Steel and that Michael Bay abomination may have the eye candy edge, but Hugo and Harry Potter told compelling stories with their computer aided wizardry. That said, Rise of the Planet of the Apes elevated the art form, creating emotionally connected characters with the flick of a computer switch and should get the Oscar. Who Should Win: Rise of the Planet of the Apes Who Will Win: Rise of the Planet of the Apes Best Film Editing The Artist – Anne-Sophie Bion and Michel Hazanavicius The Descendants – Kevin Tent The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo – Angus Wall and Kirk Baxter Hugo – Thelma Schoonmaker Moneyball – Christopher Tellefsen My Take : All of these films feature fine editing, but my pick always goes to the one that relies on it the heaviest to tell the story. This year’s crop doesn’t have the flash of The Social Network or Black Swan from last year, but still features some fine films with subtle work on the Steenbeck. As if people still used Steenbecks. All good nominees, my pick has to go to Hugo as the editing was just as important as the cinematography in telling the tale. Who Should Win: Hugo Who Will Win: Hugo Best Costume Design Anonymous – Lisy Christl The Artist – Mark Bridges Hugo – Sandy Powell Jane Eyre – Michael O'Connor W.E. – Arianne Phillips My Take : Right off the bat, knock Anonymous and W.E. off the list. The day I pick either a Roland Emerich or Madonna directed film to win an Oscar, is the day I get my head examined. My rule of thumb for this category is to go with either the period piece or the wacky fantasy. Hugo will just miss the mark, making the battle between The Artist and Jane Eyre. While I think Jane Eyre deserves it over the French silent film, I’m thinking The Artist will win out, simply because it has more buzz behind it. Who Should Win: Jane Eyre Who Will Win: The Artist Best Makeup Albert Nobbs Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 The Iron Lady My Take : OK, stop me if you’ve heard this one. A crossdresser, a wizard and Margaret Thatcher walk into a bar… This is a close one, but I’m going to pick Glenn Close’s remarkable transformation in Albert Nobbs to just beat out Streep’s take on the British Prime Minister. So why do I think the Academy will pick Streep? For one thing, she’s an Academy darling, at least where nominations are concerned, and I doubt she’s going to win Best Actress, making this a consolation prize. Who Should Win: Albert Nobbs Who Will Win: The Iron Lady Best Cinematography The Artist - Guillaume Schiffman The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo – Jeff Cronenweth Hugo – Robert Richardson The Tree of Life – Emmanuel Lubezki War Horse – Janusz Kamiński One of the tougher categories to pick this year, every film on the list would be a fine choice. From Kaminski’s sweeping work in War Horse to the inky black and whites of The Artist, every film on this list is more than deserving. Girl was filmed with standard Fincher perfection and Tree had some moments as well, but I think it’s a three pronged race between fantasy 3D (Hugo), stunning use of lighting (The Artist) and postcard perfect sunsets (War Horse). Horse was great, Artist was excellent but only one film turned a technological gimmick into a genuine art form. Who Should Win: Hugo Who Will Win: Hugo Best Art Direction The Artist – Laurence Bennett and Robert Gould Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 – Stuart Craig and Stephanie McMillan Hugo – Dante Ferretti and Francesca Lo Schiavo Midnight in Paris – Anne Seibel and Hélène Dubreuil War Horse – Rick Carter and Lee Sandales My Take : Typically, Best Art Direction goes to the film that features the most imaginative visual eye of the films released this year. Based on previous winners, I’m thinking it’s going to be between Hugo and Harry Potter for this very nebulous award Who Should Win: Hugo Who Will Win: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Best Sound Mixing The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo – David Parker, Michael Semanick, Ren Klyce, and Bo Persson Hugo – Tom Fleischman and John Midgley Moneyball – Deb Adair, Ron Bochar, David Giammarco, and Ed Novick Transformers: Dark of the Moon – Greg P. Russell, Gary Summers, Jeffrey J. Haboush, and Peter J. Devlin War Horse – Gary Rydstrom, Andy Nelson, Tom Johnson, and Stuart Wilson My Take : One of those categories that you can throw in the air and see what lands first, I’m guessing a dark cyber sleuth, a general manager and a horse isn’t going to beat out fighting robots. All that clanking must have sounded brilliant in the theaters. Who Should Win: Hugo Who Will Win: Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon Best Sound Editing Drive – Lon Bender and Victor Ray Ennis The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo – Ren Klyce Hugo – Philip Stockton and Eugene Gearty Transformers: Dark of the Moon – Ethan Van der Ryn and Erik Aadahl War Horse – Richard Hymns and Gary Rydstrom My Take : While you can make a case for Drive, given the best thing about the flick was the soundtrack, Sound Mixing and Editing go hand in hand, so I’m duplicating my picks from that award. Who Should Win: Hugo Who Will Win: Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon Best Original Score The Adventures of Tintin – John Williams The Artist – Ludovic Bource Hugo – Howard Shore Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy – Alberto Iglesias War Horse – John Williams My Take : No Trent Reznor for Girl With The Dragon Tattoo? Sham, I say! In all seriousness, while every nominee featured a stirring soundtrack, The Artist wins this easily. The score not only set the time, place and mood, was instrumental in pushing the emotional weight. With no spoken dialogue, the score had to do double duty and pulled off the trick beautifully. Who Should Win: The Artist Who Will Win: The Artist Best Foreign Language Film Bullhead (Belgium) in Dutch and French – Michaël R. Roskam Footnote (Israel) in Hebrew – Joseph Cedar In Darkness (Poland) in Polish – Agnieszka Holland Monsieur Lazhar (Canada) in French – Philippe Falardeau A Separation (Iran) in Persian – Asghar Farhadi My Take : If you follow my reviews with any regularity, you know how I feel about this next category. While I’ve only seen A Separation out of the films nominated, I think it’s a safe bet to pick my number 2 favorite film of the year to win Best Foreign. Based on buzz alone, I feel fairly confident of this pick. Who Should Win: A Separation Who Will Win: A Separation Best Animated Feature Film A Cat in Paris – Alain Gagnol and Jean-Loup Felicioli Chico and Rita – Fernando Trueba and Javier Mariscal Kung Fu Panda 2 – Jennifer Yuh Nelson Puss in Boots – Chris Miller Rango – Gore Verbinski My Take : Last year, Toy Story 3 was the clear cut winner. This year, not so simple. Given the popularity of the film they chose last year, I have a feeling the Academy will surprise us with an obscure pick like Chico and Rita or A Cat in Paris. Still, The Adventures of Tin Tin won the Golden Globe and it wasn’t even nominated for the Oscar, so I don’t know what to believe. My pick balanced the line between entertainment and emotion nicely, creating a film that adults and kids could equally enjoy. The Academy? Who knows what they’re thinking. Who Should Win: Rango Who Will Win: A Cat in Paris Best Adapted Screenplay The Descendants – Alexander Payne, Nat Faxon, and Jim Rash from The Descendants by Kaui Hart Hemmings Hugo – John Logan from The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick The Ides of March – George Clooney, Grant Heslov, and Beau Willimon from Farragut North by Beau Willimon Moneyball – Screenplay by Steven Zaillian and Aaron Sorkin; Story by Stan Chervin from Moneyball by Michael Lewis Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy – Bridget O'Connor and Peter Straughan from Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy by John le Carré My Take : Now to the exciting ones! There aren’t many duds in this category, so I’ll take them one at a time. Didn’t see Ides or Tinker, so I can’t comment on them but I can’t imagine them topping Moneyball, Hugo or The Descendants in the screenwriting department, despite critics finding them both taught and gripping. While Aaron Sorkin’s Moneyball is a definite frontrunner for me, the script didn’t have quite the “oomph” of Hugo or The Descendants. Hugo was beautifully written but the drive of the story was achieved largely to the cinematography, making The Descendants my choice. Hugo is wonderfully written but Alexander Payne’s feature lives and dies solely on the strength of the story. A close one, but The Descendants is my pick. Who Should Win: The Descendants Who Will Win: The Descendants Best Original Screenplay The Artist – Michel Hazanavicius Bridesmaids – Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo Margin Call – J.C. Chandor Midnight in Paris – Woody Allen A Separation – Asghar Farhadi My Take : Ahhhh…isn’t it nice to see Bridesmaids up for an Oscar? Hands down the funniest movie I saw all of last year, Bridesmaids certainly deserves to be in this category. Doesn’t mean it’s going to win though. To me, The Artist, Midnight in Paris and A Separation are all deserving choices, but I can’t give the award to a film made up entirely of title cards, amazing as it was. For me, this is another close one but the Academy and I are going to differ. My pick goes to the most intensely simple film I saw this year, and the Academy is going to side with the Globes and give it to the lovely Midnight In Paris. Either way, I’ll be perfectly OK with it. Who Should Win: A Separation Who Will Win: Midnight In Paris Best Supporting Actress Bérénice Bejo – The Artist as Peppy Miller Jessica Chastain – The Help as Celia Foote Melissa McCarthy – Bridesmaids as Megan Price Janet McTeer – Albert Nobbs as Hubert Page Octavia Spencer – The Help as Minny Jackson My Take : And now it’s time for the majors, the categories we slog through the entire ceremony to see. This year’s crop of nominees are all well deserving, including another feel good nod to Melissa McCarthy for her turn as the grotesquely hilarious Megan in Bridesmaids. Once again, she won’t see the podium as she is in tough company. Also, good for Jessica Chastain, who was in almost everything this year, for getting a nom for her role in The Help. Kudos to her, but it’s going to be between the radiant Berenice Bejo as the pluckly Peppy Miller from The Artist and Octavia Spencer for her career defining role in The Help. Bejo was great but, quite simply, Spencer was the better actress and if her snagging of both the Golden Globe and the SAG award means anything, she’s going to walk away with the Oscar as well. Who Should Win: Octavia Davis Who Will Win: Octavia Davis Best Supporting Actor Kenneth Branagh – My Week with Marilyn as Laurence Olivier Jonah Hill – Moneyball as Peter Brand Nick Nolte – Warrior as Paddy Conlon Christopher Plummer – Beginners as Hal Fields Max von Sydow – Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close as The Renter My Take : Probably the easiest to pick of the majors, the big story of this category is the snubbing of Albert Brooks in Drive. Although many critics were taken in by his performance, I simply didn’t get it and for once, I feel the Academy got it right. As far as the nominees go, I didn’t see Daldry’s Extremely Loud or Warrior but I can’t see either film walking away with it, based on reviews alone. Jonah Hill was fine but not spectacular as the number crunching whiz kid in Moneyball and Branagh was good but not brilliant as Sir Laurence Oliver in My Week With Marilyn. This leaves the great Christopher Plummer walking away with his third award in as many ceremonies for his heart warming turn as a newly admitted gay man loving life in his elder years. Beginners was one of my Top 10 movies of the year and I’m very glad to see Plummer get some much deserved recognition for the role. Who Should Win: Christopher Plummer Who Will Win: Christopher Plummer Best Actress Glenn Close – Albert Nobbs as Albert Nobbs Viola Davis – The Help as Aibileen Clark Rooney Mara – The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo as Lisbeth Salander Meryl Streep[ – The Iron Lady as Margaret Thatcher Michelle Williams – My Week with Marilyn as Marilyn Monroe My Take : It seems like I’m saying this a lot, but you could make a strong case for nearly every nominee in this category. While I’ve yet to see either Close or Streep in their respective roles, Mara was a revelation as the hard as nails Lisbeth in David Fincher’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and Williams was marvelous as America’s Sweetheart in My Week With Marilyn. Despite that, nobody touched Viola Davis when it came to pure acting brilliance in her turn as Aibileen in Tate Taylor’s The Help. Streep won the Globe and Davis won the SAG but while I could see the Academy giving Streep the nod as more of a “lifetime achievement” than anything else, I think the right woman will win out in the end. Nuanced, brave and heartbreaking, Davis cemented her already impeccable reputation in the role and more than deserves to walk home with the trophy. Who Should Win: Viola Davis Who Will Win: Viola Davis Best Actor Demián Bichir – A Better Life as Carlos Galindo George Clooney – The Descendants as Matt King Jean Dujardin – The Artist as George Valentin Gary Oldman – Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy as George Smiley Brad Pitt – Moneyball as Billy Beane My Take : Another category that didn’t include a Drive nomination, the Best Actor slate boils down to a two horse race between George Clooney as a Hawaiian father trying to keep it all together and Jean Dujardin as a silent film actor avoiding the talkies. No offense to Brad Pitt, who was nicely restrained as Moneyball’s Billy Beane or Gary Oldman as a retired British intelligence agent, but the close race deserves to go the former ER star. Although Dujardin was wonderful in the role, his performance bordered on kitschy given the 1930’s setting, creating a feeling that touched on parody, not personality. Clooney, on the other hand, hit a height I didn’t think he ever would in The Descendants and while I didn’t think as highly on it when I saw it in theaters, it really is one of the best performances of the year. When all is said and done, the race is a nail biting one but I think Dujardin will win it despite Clooney deserving it. Who Should Win: George Clooney Who Will Win: Jean Dujardin Best Director Woody Allen – Midnight in Paris Michel Hazanavicius – The Artist Terrence Malick – The Tree of Life Alexander Payne – The Descendants Martin Scorsese – Hugo My Take : Terrance Malik’s laborious Tree of Life aside, you could make a strong case for every one of the nominees for Best Director. To me, the award should go to the director whose vision influenced the film in the most positive way. From getting the best out of actors, to shot selection, to the physical telling of a story, the director is the helmsman behind the great ship called film. Without a strong director steering the vessel, the movie is bound to run aground. This year’s nominees all had a singular vision in bringing their respective films to life but one director not only elevated a simple fairy tale about a boy and his robot to classic status, he elevated an entire genre. Sometimes directing is pure magic and in case of Scorsese’s Hugo, the rabbit he pulled out of his hat was the most beautiful one of the year. Who Should Win: Martin Scorsese Who Will Win: Martin Scorsese Best Picture The Artist – Thomas Langmann The Descendants – Jim Burke, Jim Taylor, and Alexander Payne Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close – Scott Rudin The Help – Brunson Green, Chris Columbus, and Michael Barnathan Hugo – Graham King and Martin Scorsese Midnight in Paris – Letty Aronson and Stephen Tenenbaum Moneyball – Michael De Luca, Rachel Horowitz, and Brad Pitt The Tree of Life – Dede Gardner, Sarah Green, Grant Hill, and Bill Pohlad War Horse – Steven Spielberg and Kathleen Kennedy My Take : And now for the big one, the mother of all film awards, Best Picture. This year, nine films have been given the nod and with exception of a couple, they all deserve it in one way or another. Like most years, the laundry list of nominees can be whittled down to three and this year, it’s between The Help, Hugo and The Artist. Will it be the comically tragic story of a group of Southern maids rising up against 60’s era oppression? Will it be the fairy tale about a boy, his friend and a broken down robot that holds the secret to not only his past, but the past of all cinema? Or will it be the movie about a silent film movie actor who deals with loss of his craft, his career and his very way of life. Every movie on the list, even the ones that don’t stand a chance, have something special in them, something that captures the mind, stirs the soul and snares our imaginations. If you’ve heard me speak even three sentences this year, you know my pick for Best Picture but while I think the Academy will go a different direction, don’t think I feel the movie isn’t deserving of the honor.

Cachorro Louco Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Look what just popped on Netflix Streaming :boogie: ( and it's distributed by Walt Disney WTF??) Shame it's netflix didn't put the first one for streaming too, but that's not a major problem since "Elite Squad: The Enemy Within "has a pretty closed history that doesn't depend entirely on the on it's prequel "Enemy Squad". This in my opnion is the best Brazilian movies in the past 25 years "City of God " isn't in the same league . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I saw the avengers yesterday and really enjoyed it. There are some incredibly funny moments in that movie, and some excellent comic timing, but the action in it is also really good. For a movie that is 2 hours and 22 minutes long it flew by.

NJCroMag Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 CroMag -- Brave? You must have daughters. My daughter is chomping at the bit to see that one. My oldest daughter wants to see it. But, truth be told, I enjoy most of what Pixar puts out. The "Cars" movies are the only exception, off the top of my head. But I loved all the "Toy Story" films, "Wall-E," "Ratatouille," "Up!", "Finding Nemo," "Last House On The Left", uhhh... Wait, that last one wasn't Pixar. Scratch that.

njskaguy33 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I hate to be the wet blanket in this, but I'm really questioning how good Brave is going to be. Pixar is at their best when they were independent, making great stories with great characters. Brave looks a little too Disney to me. I'm sure I'll still see it, but I'm hoping it livs up to the other Pixar classics. Also, I'm with NJ, I'm pretty stoked about Prometheus, Dark Knight and the Avengers. Early reviews of the Avengers have been outstanding, so I'm looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJCroMag Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 So, anybody get out to see this little independent art-house movie called "Avengers" this weekend? I did. I enjoyed it. Good mix of action and humor. Storyline was about what I was expecting, though. It'd be nice to see this "little engine that could" turn a profit, but I have my doubts.
