Also knowing at least a lil bit the ballot submission process for this thing, i bet lotta voters were like: oh yeah, that's jack antonoffs wife there, lets nominate that!

[@LandoHendrix444]

Felicity Jones will be saved by a BAFTA nod/win

[@andrewblazensky5192]

For me, The Substance’s biggest Critics Choice snub was Editing. It’s gonna have to knock out September 5 to snag an Oscar nom. The others are just too heavy of hitters to knock out of that category. Have you guys also considered that if The Substance WINS Best Original Screenplay at the Oscars, it’ll be the first film in history to win the Cannes award in the same category? That’s insanely awesome.

[@rhythmoriented]

The Substance’s editing far exceeds that of Challengers, which is on the CC list. Agree that other films are heavy hitters, and overall well edited. September 5’s editing is also great, and may even put on the bubble for a BP nom.

[@poett8875]

Once again really glad that the substance performed so well. I’m just hoping it isn’t the film of the year that peaks too early and ends up falling off.

[@rachel_dawn_amber]

Emilia Pérez, an European film with American Hollywood stars that pretends to be latino and portrays stereotypes and offensive caricatures of latin culture. But who cares, right? Clearly the critics don’t.

[@Denis-89]

All of them are Latinos though. Zoe Saldana is in fact both black and Latina. So yeah you are wrong

[@baraka92]

@@Denis-89There’s a big divide between Americans of Latin descent and Latin Americans that is hard to grasp for outsiders. Here, nobody considers Selena Gomez or Zoe Saldaña Latinas. Everybody would just call them gringas.

[@garrettpullen9740]

That movie sucked. I’m with you

[@DaveNetWorld]

You guys ever consider doing what Siskel & Ebert used to do called "If We Picked The Winners"? You'll find some of their Oscar shows here on KZbin. Pick certain categories, put your personal choice of who you think should win in envelopes and then reveal them to each other in a live stream before the ceremony. Could be interesting. Also pick THE worst overall nomination in your opinion.

[@1.0.10.9]

I watched all the Siskel and Ebert ''If We Picked The Winners'' episodes,devoted fan of those two genius even if i was born a year before Gene Siskel's tragic passing,but what would be the point with these 2 if all their choices are going' to be Emilia Perez/yikes,Dune Part 2 and The Brutalist,at least Siskel and Ebert separated acting and tech categories from how they felt about the films

[@phoenixrising8231]

Dune 2 got ten. 2nd biggest haul. Y'all blew it & Deni V off. A Complete Unknown isn't going anywhere. It's not a biopic. It's a slice of life at a particular pivotal time in history. Where music was at the forefront of pushing social justice reform into the mainstream. Bob led the way. Then went his own way. Fracturing folk music & it's instrumental influence.

Regarding Felicity Jones' snub here I have heard several Oscar prognosticators deride her performance in The Brutalist. The gang at Awardswatch HATED her performance for example. She's not getting SAG so I unfortunately have dropped her from my predictions.

Using process of elimination, we have 5 contenders for the Best Director Oscar winner in terms of nominations stat: Fargeat, Berger, Corbet, Baker, and Audiard.

[@dariussalepetru6770]

[@rafaelcruz9973]

I think Villeneuve is done, but don't underestimate Ross

[@axr7149]

@@rafaelcruz9973 For the Directing Oscar win, it is between these 5. That’s because of the stat that since 2005, the winner has been someone who was at least nominated at all 5 major ceremonies (Globes, Critics Choice, DGA, BAFTA, and Oscar). Ross missed Globes.

[@Sharpe1502]

I’d swap Audiard out for Ross.

Love the channel fellas. Keep it coming! But also, why wouldn’t you have Berger on your Oscar prediction list? The Academy loves him. And they’re not gonna go with an all male batch. It’s gonna be Baker, Corbet, Berger, Fargeat and Ross -as it should be. Chu will get “snubbed,” but Wicked will take Production design, costuming and possibly cinematography, although I think we’ll start to see The Brutalist start to win in that category once we get rolling.

Very minor thing but I think for these types of nominations that get posted instead of announced, maybe you could get a third person to read them out so your reactions are in sync. Kind of too much effort to get a third person, I know, but I really enjoy it if any surprises get the both of you at the same time.
