    You know what award Fury Road should be up for? Best Stunt Work. But it doesn't exist. And it should.

    These exist, though: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taurus_World_Stunt_Awards

    not an oscar

    Is the golden globes stuffier?

    That's dividing widths of hair isn't it?

    mad max didn't win any golden globes right

    and that's the weirder award show, why would the stuffier, more serious one award an R rated blockbuster action movie?

    Globes don't give out technical awards, which is what max is more likely to win.

    Golden Globes everyone is seated around tables with lots of drinking.

    Oscars is in a big theatre.

    that is a LOT of technical noms for Mad Max

    I think it got tapped for every category

  • ph blakeph blake Registered User regular
    No Going Clear nom is the first thing that will piss off a good deal of people, I think.

    Mad Max cleaned up in the technical awards with 5 noms so far, and I'm glad When Marnie Was There got a Best Animated Feature nom even though Anamolisa or Inside Out will (deservedly) win that category.

    This is the most surprising one for me. I was sure The Academy would give him the prize as a lifetime achievement award and seeing him left out for Abrahamson is kind of shocking.

    I'm seeing Room tonight actually so I can't definitely say I would have preferred Todd Haynes more, but his work in Carol was amazing and god damn do I wish he would have gotten a nom, both here and in Best Picture.

    Also, in what should surprise absolutely no one, Academy members don't watch Netflix so Idris Elba gets left off the Best Supporting Actor list.

    I didn't see this but it was so well received when it released that I'm surprised it's not up for more.

    I would've maybe liked to see Kurt Russell up for supporting because his character was pretty damn entertaining but I'm not heartbroken over it at all.

    I need to go see a ton of these movies still. I hate going to theaters alone though.
