Practically nothing.<br /><br />Everybody in Babylon kinda feels supporting. And I almost put Brad Pitt twice (again for Lost City), erroneously off an old list. Poor Smith-Gneist!<br /><br />If Hurwitz can be nominated for doing a Hurwitz Elvis can be nominated for Elvis music. Actual fact, I forgot it's best *original* score.<br /><br />Inordinately pleased with Best Picture and Original Screenplay (poor Tim Brayton), very displeased with Production Design, displeased with Best Adapted Screenplay but what a joke category (Top Gun, *screenplay*? Knives Out? barf), actually rather displeased with Best Supporting Actress Hunter Allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10925220178171355473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4633480297352890314.post-8999957060571643382023-03-13T03:00:14.954-11:002023-03-13T03:00:14.954-11:00Hey your pick won! How often has that ever happene...Hey your pick won! How often has that ever happened?<br /><br />I have a hard time reconciling live-action and animated production/acting honors even though I know pretty much all big studio movies get extensive computer-generated post-production. You're right, Avatar is pretty much an animated film!<br /><br />Interesting you have Margot Robbie as Supporting. She seems pretty equal in importance to Calva except for the coda, at least in my memory. I also would have thought about Pitt for lead, although that one I see the case for Supporting since he's only the second most central male actor. But his story is nearly as significant as Calva's.<br /><br />Elvis feels a bit of a cheat for Score (no idea if it was actually eligible) given its source. But I think the movie does enough fresh recreations with existing songs, both diegetically and not, that I don't entirely object. I didn't include it, but I'm right there with you on emotional reactions to Elvis's best songs. Too bad it couldn't find room for "The Wonder of You" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnifX3oAbPs<br /><br />Overall, given the sheer number of movies released and number that you saw and I didn't (and vice versa) plus things we disagree on, I'm pleased on how many we have at least 2 or 3 overlapping.<br /><br />Looking forward to future usages of the "self-indulgent crap" tagdanhttp://thegoodsreviews.com/noreply@blogger.com
