Award Season in 2013

Skyfall-I really did enjoy it. I think it's weird that people are talking about it for oscar nominations. But I enjoyed it none the less

really enjoyed this movie but if dark knight was snubbed, this movie really shouldn't get jack haha

Looks like I'm going to have to sit this year out. I haven't seen anything except TDKR and I can't do squat till my exams are over in January.

Awards season is officially starting with the New York Film Critics' Awards on Monday... that means I'm REALLY behind! :/ I haven't seen a single movie since Silver Linings Playbook over a month ago, let alone an Oscar contender.

I think next on my list are Lincoln, Anna Karenina and Skyfall. Oh, and Zero Dark Thirty! ...Hopefully soon, haha.

^ hahaha! do you know the nomination list for mondays award show? im too lazy to look for it lol

 

[teesharky]

Ok the Governor's Awards dinner is tonight, and Kristen Stewart is there, etc. I forget: What is this dinner about? And who was honored? tx.

I need to see SkyFall as well, and Silver Linings.

But I did see Argo and Lincoln, and they were both superb.

 

[teesharky]

I can't find the nominees for the New york Film Critics awards. Hmmm

Do they not announce them in advance?

 

[Grace_Of_God]

^ i....guess not....hmm. cant wait to find out the results though!

 

[AIgrl06]

No, nominations aren't announced in advance. I can't wait for the awards, though, haha. I'm going to go through and see what movies I'll be able to watch online tonight and tomorrow. School's winding down for the semester so I should have some time freed up.

[AIgrl06]

Welp, looks like I really, really need to see Lincoln right about now, haha. To add to that list, Kathryn Bigelow won Director for Zero Dark Thirty. Ooh, and I just remembered Tony Kushner wrote Lincoln. That just made me 100x more excited for the film, heh.

It's not necessarily an Oscar contender, bu I watched Hope Springsand I really, really liked it. It was really engaging and Meryl Streep and Tommy Lee Jones were both phenomenal in their roles. I'd recommend it.

 

[Grace_Of_God]

^ I knew i was missing a category....whoops director.

and really? I had seen a lot of previews for that movie and wasnt sure about it

 

[bigbluegrl23]

damn, I guess voters were tired hearing who they were going to vote for. is this award show a major clue for how the other big shows will vote?

[AIgrl06]

I'm going to hold off on The Deep Blue Sea and the Matthew McConaughey films until I see if they gain more traction. Sometimes critics' groups like this give us a couple that we don't see again (doesn't mean they're not great performances, of course).

^ I knew i was missing a category....whoops director.

Yeah, I actually really liked it. It's essentially just a character study of two people who've been married for 30+ years. The performances are stellar. But I don't think it'll get any awards traction besides like, the Globes.

 

[Grace_Of_God]

^ interesting. Ill have to check it out once award season dies down a bit

and yeah im holding off on those movies as well....haha

 

[teesharky]

Lincoln and Sally Field are deserving. as well as Daniel Day Lewis.

But I resent the exclusion of Argo. That is some BS. It was a Phenominal movie and surely Ben should have at least been nominated!!!! $%#%$#

God I hate snotty voters!

I hate Katherine Bigelow too- sorry. She is so over-rated as Hurt Locker was horrendous. I tired 3x to watch it and could not make it through the first 20 minutes. So boring. No character development. No emotion. Dull as paint drying.

Tommy Lee Jones is on fire this year. He was phenominal in Lincoln and stole the show. He better get some award show love.
