Paid Members chokeout Posted January 23, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted January 23, 2019 I hope Bohemian Rhapsody wins for no other reason than I want Dexter Fletcher, star of Press Gang, to say he directed an Oscar winning film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, atleast he will not be recognised as such as the Director credit is still that twat Bryan Singer. It was a decent bio pic, nothing more. Mission Impossible should have got a nod instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Accident Prone Posted January 23, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted January 23, 2019 I've not seen Bohemian Rhapsody, but I hope it loses due to the sheer ludicrous nature of that half-baked Wayne's World reference that Mike Myers makes.

Having read up after the film, a lot of things were changed for "dramatic" purposes. I wish it didn't have the involvement of May and Taylor tbh. Though plus one for having the kid in it from Jurassic Park. The actual casting was good in general I will give it that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merzbow Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 There's been a lot of talk about there being no nominations for Sorry To Bother You but Boots has explained in a twitter thread why it has none and he's not exactly mad about it: Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It felt like a weird tribute to Being John Malkovic at times in the style of the film, but I felt it run out of steam before the end. While it would not have made the Best Picture nom for me, it deserves it more then BoHo and Black Panther. But I am glad he has taken time to explain his views and very graciously as well. I look forward to his next work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted January 23, 2019 Author Paid Members Share Posted January 23, 2019 Fuck me. I just remembered they didn't even bother their arse with Leave No Trace. Maybe they do hate female directors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Danger Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I noticed the James Bulger film got a nod in best live action short. A strange film in that of all the families not to consult on something like this the poor lads mum is probably the worse person to neglect. I'm hesitant to criticise her too much but there'll be no shortage of tabloid quotes and ITV appearances over the next month or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Factotum Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 The media exploit that poor woman so they can get even more mileage out of the Bulger story. She obviously is still in horrible pain about it and they use that to have her, as you said, all over ITV and the papers to sell it. Its an emotive case for all people.

Yeah, a lot of people loved it. To me, it comes across as one of those awful reference 'jokes', where the audience claps at their own ability to remember something. But then again I'm the guy who hated Rogue One for similar reasons so I'm just a grey old curmudgeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
