Metcalf is the one I have been the most sad about losing. I love Allison Janney but Laurie Metcalf deserves this more. I fear she’ll just be another “should’ve won” statistic.
Spot on morpheus spot on 3 bullocks represents next chapter in long self inflicted death march of once revered genuine best film of year. Watch people as YOUR preferred contender get drowned out by cyber space driven drivel and white noise by selfish ideologically far left activists it already begun. If bafta or academy had guts to stand up truly what they believed in rather than blowing with wind in direction of what indistry wants to win rather than what public want of ehat competes each year these organisations would up ante in ctiteria to be best picture contender frankly films to appeaSe far left or right ideology spark a overheated hysteria that simply overshadows better more deserving films each year. To allow thrmselves increasingly to blow same direction as industry winds drmonstrates lazy unrepresentative leadership in both award organisations both bafta and academy almost as dreadful as each orher it weak to let activists dictate your vision for u industry.
Janney lol
Exactly system is broken frankly it time to syreamline awards season and academy to fast reevaluate the delicate fine lines between reactionary award winners as in best film being rewarded based on film best represrnts short term political movemement ( 3bb = ‘ me too’ of day vs. Trur best ampas value driven film that is film subscribes to meet original foundation stone prerequisite of truly memorable best picture that has appeal beyond scope of short term ‘ activist ‘movement and another thing too. Some minority of people herr who insist foolishly 3 billboards is not particularly political are seriously in denial. Remind me again core ideology of billboards? And dont u believe filmmaker testimomy through you tube or on entertqinmrnt channel if as i strongly suspect for instance, filmmaker of 3 BB publicly denies his film being drivrn shaped by polirical mpvement first foremost before actually creating something truly original that 3 bb is clearly not sorry making a movie literally from slogans will not survive in memory of silent majoriry beyomd this year. This is not about what i like a weak feeble argument i lomg put to rest.
This is abour fact silrny majority like me know true value of history original intentiond of bafta and ampas frankly there no art in literal interpretation of political statement to appease far left political agenda . There no science in fusion of actors reciting expanded version of billboards and no why should i give courtesy to qatch a movie that trlls me what i already know as issues aroumd world today. Literal lazy slack filmmaking i look forward to my comnent being condmned anyone who does you havr right but fact is no time in ampas history or bafta has bern such polirically driven film frankly niwhere near as british as dunkirk or darkest hr talk bout award show sending their vqlues down thqmes river sheesh whqt wasted opportunity by bafta
Awesome! Those are two of the most recent four. I did the research, and it’s very rare. The only movies to win editing, in the 83 years the category has existed, without any above-the-line nominations are:
The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) – same nods as Baby Driver (editing plus the sounds), won all three.
The Matrix (1999) – same nods plus VFX, won all four.
Who Frame Roger Rabbit (1988) – six nods, won three (including one of the sounds).
Bullitt (1968) – two nods, won only the one.
Grand Prix (1966) – same nods as Baby Driver, won all three.
North West Mounted Police (1940) – five nods, won only the one.
Eskimo (1933) – editing was its only nod (this was also only the first year there was an editing category at the Oscars).
That makes this a 92% stat which says that a movie has to have at least one above-the-line nomination before it can win editing. (Usually a lot more than one, by the way.) Which is pretty prohibitive, though the most recent precedents do look strikingly similar to Baby Driver’s situation. And, given that 3/7 of these had exactly the same nominations as Baby Driver, give or take a VFX nod, and won all of them, one would probably need to predict it to win all three, were one to predict it to win editing at all. I probably won’t, given how rare these cases are.
Fair enough. For me, memorability and usage is key to a great score and Burwell’s music for Three Billboards… gets a no from me on both criteria.
It doesn’t, but PGA+DGA also doesn’t make anything undeniable. Plenty of those have lost. Not to mention the SAG snub…
And 3B. 🙂
I prefer all 3 Oscar winners, but none of them by that much.
Makes sense since more people have seen Get Out.
This. People should stop having expectations from voters that owe them nothing. I’ve been guilty of this a bit myself, this season, and I regret it. It’s silly.
A hot ass mess.
Not over yet. He’s always been more liked by BAFTA than AMPAS.
A travesty if u ask me.
No, but he’s saying there’ll probably only be like 2-3 upsets, which is too little for it to be worth watching the ceremony. (Personally, it doesn’t affect me, once I’ve made my peace with it – I watch the Oscars for many other reasons, anyway, and as long as there’s suspense in picture, I have every reason to be interested in the whole thing, give how other awards interact with BP.)
That sound you hear is one of relief from ”Dunkirk’s” camp. At least it won’t be shut out.
Weird for me to be rooting for that, when I think Get Out has the clearly better screenplay…
Exactly…
Off the top of my head, BOURNE ULTIMATUM and BULLITT are 2 I can think of.
They don’t… but it’d sure be nice if they did!…
It lost editing and score so not quite
What’s the situation with above-the-line nods being necessary for the editing win? How many have won with none of those?
I still doubt it. Genre bias, lost ACE comedy, no above-the-line nods…
Voters often prefer the ”prettiest” and melodic-sounding one, so Desplat won. Zimmer’s intense work on ”Dunkirk” amps up the suspense, but some think of it as sound design.
I thought Danny had it. Glad I was right!
Very nice! A smart bet, for sure!
*coughs* Diner scene *cough* Tape recorder *scene*
I mean, if it were really meant to be a satire, then I would definitely sign on to that opinion.
How ironic that the very thing that is responsible for most of the flaws in the movie is rewarded with a win.
The opening scene of Baby Driver was the only scene from a movie that I rewound five times.
There’s a bit of campaigning going on for him this season, but I said at the very beginning he was going to win. But even with that I think he would still in because BR49 has a flashy cinematography and the Academy likes those the most.
How can you know who wins when I went 22-2 five years ago and only know about 5-7 categories for sure this year?
Vamos Roger!
Gross.
and if it wins BSP Oscar then it has won BP
Yes. What a travesty for a great performance
“3 Bilboards” wins Original Screenplay”
The other day when I was rewatching it there was a moth in here. Everytime the bombers came roaring in, it headed right for me. So clearly it worked.
Cotillard actually lost most of the awards to Julie Christie. So even she did not sweep.
After I safely know that Deakins has won then I’ll be relieved to turn off the BAFTA’s coverage. They better not do me dirty on Deakins.
So they like film editing with fast cars?
Oh come on. Un challenging? Janney looks and talks like that in real life? The knives are out so fast here!
Dunkirk wins sound
Baby Driver has phenomenal editing.
Yeah , I am getting tired of the same winners in every award show. 2At least in other years when your favourite lost the Oscar you could point to other award shows as a consolation. Like, you “Boyhood” and Brokeback Mountain” won BAFTA? It’s not even undeniable winners. That’s frustrating thing. It’s DDL in TWBB or Marion Cottilard in “La Ve En Rose”
Because they don’t vote for anybody other than themselves! Why do so many folk think that each guild has to choose somebody else to make it exciting for us. They don’t.
I love how the BAFTAs are with editing. Just look what movies won editing from 2001 to 2006. They awarded Rush and Senna. Bold choices, not obvious ones. I like that. And I love they gave it to Baby Driver.
Baby Driver exhibits great, great editing though! In fact, that’s all the movie is really. Just clever editing decisions with a good soundtrack.
They’re not. They’re choosing who they like. Why shouldn’t a predominance of BAFTA voters endorse a Janney or a Rockwell? SAG liked them too. They don’t choose their favourite to make it an interesting race for us! If they do it is great; but they like who they like.
They know she’s winning the Oscar. Why not use the opportunity to award Manville?
They liked I Tonya !
Allison Janney deserved with Manville at a very close second place
I love Janney, but after this she is dead to me. Lesley Manville is clearly too good for awards.
I wouldn’t say she’s awful, but certainly not worthy of all these trophies. It’s a one-dimensional caricature that doesn’t change from her first scene to her final one. It’s delivered flawlessly of course, because she’s Janney, but it’s such an obvious, hammy, un-challenging role.
Don’t these fucking brits have a mind of thir own? Why the fuck are they pretending to be the Oscars with their choices?
That was the good old days when the BAFTA branches voted for the winners.
This will be the first season ever when the same actors win the Globe, the SAG, the BAFTA and Critics’ Choice. Boooring. If they were a bit more deserving, I wouldn’t mind…. but… these performance. Janney is awful.
These really are the most boring acting races in a while. (It’s disingenuous to even call them “races” at this point, honestly.)
I just lost my money 🙁
Allison Janney, snooze…
Hard luck, Dafoe! It fucking doesn’t matter, though, because The Florida Project is a masterpiece while Three Billboards is a piece of garbage.
”Call Me” also was the only Best Film nominee in that category. And even though James Ivory is an American, he’s known for making all those acclaimed British movies.
So that’s it. It’s gonna be “Academy Award Winner – Sam Rockwell”. I have to say, I like that very much 🙂
Hi, any live stream?
Sam Rockwell wind Supporting!!!!
Well, that’s more like it. BAFTA being like old BAFTA again?
Yeah. They went for the sexiest editing.
The best documentary won.
That was the thing I didn’t like in that movie. lol
BAFTA has a solid track record of predicting the winner here.
Manville, hmm, yes.
Phantom Threat
This will be business as usual. There will be no surprises.
