Had a quick stop at Real Milwaukee to make this morning so I apologize for the delay in getting this posted online.
My quick thoughts as this goes live…
- A lot of love for Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close – and that’s not a bad thing. Other than that, Best Picture looks as many envisioned it would.
- Best Actor looks to favor George Clooney (and good for him…love love love The Descendants). Demian Bichir surprised, but if you haven’t seen A Better Life do yourself a favor and see it, it’s REALLY a great performance.
- Best Actress has all the heavyweights there PLUS they included ROONEY MARA!!!! Yes I’m a fan, her performance rocks The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo!
- Best Supporting Actor surprised me by leaving the ultra cool role for Albert Brooks out of the mix. But then it surprised me with Jonah Hill in the mix. All signs point to Christopher Plummer though.
- Supporting Actress features lots of surprises. Melissa McCarthy was wonderful in Bridesmaids and the Academy saw that while The Help gets both Jessica Chastain and Octavia Spencer on board. (Could this be Octavia’s Spencer’s night?)
- Other quick comments…
- Two animated features that no one in the general public has heard of?
- Only TWO nominees for Best Song???? (Man or Muppet PLEASE)
- Documentary Feature Hell and Back Again is ON DVD Today!
- TWO nominations for John Williams this year…TintinAND War Horse in the Original Score category.
- I love the screenplay category – but disappointed nothing for 50/50 or Martha Marcy May Marlene. ECSTATIC that Bridesmaids, Margin Call and A Separation all showed in Original Screenplay AND did you see the list in Adapted Screenplay (a who’s who of some of the best of the year).
Now we wait – until the end of Feb to see who wins – get ye to a theater or DVD player and start catching up on some of the year’s best now!
Get the full list at www.oscar.com and it will be posted here later this evening.
More thoughts will be posted later today!
