This is literally the first year where I haven't seen any of the films or even heard of most of them. (Apart from the visual effects category) Nymphomaniac by Lars Von Trier should of been nominated, far better but the Oscars would never win it.

Well-made is subjective to the Academy, whose average member is (likely) a straight white male about 60 who is closed-minded to certain genres and themes (with some exceptions to this every know and then).

EDIT: Also, thisssss! Marion is not winning, but she so should. She was phenomenal in Two Days, One Night! (although I am sad that her nomination came at the expense of Amy Adams and not Felicity ) Last edited by xcrushterx; 15-01-15 at 18:25. |

I, too, am sorry that Ralph Fiennes didn't get nominated. He's really a joy to watch in that film.

I haven't even seen one movie last year. No wonder none of these films sound familiar. Didn't even see my country's nominated film.

I told myself that if Rosamund Pike gets nominated for Leading Actress I would be happy with whatever... but there really are so many surprising snubs that it's hard not to be a little disappointed with this year's nominations.
Still though; Yay Rosamund Pike! This is definitely (and finally) Julianne Moore's year, but I'm just very happy Pike is finally getting recognized for her craft. |
