Musical or comedy-
Walk the Line. Pretty much 100% guaranteed nomination. I'd say its 85% sure to win it.

I think Wedding Crashers might get a nom for best musical/comedy.
Author:  Shack [ Sun Sep 04, 2005 8:29 pm ]
Post subject: 
Actually yeah, maybe. It was such beloved by everyone. Then again 40YOV got better reviews actually the best out of any movie of the summer. Maybe that'll get one?

Another Musical/Comedy that could sneak in there, but have no chance at Oscar: Rumor Has It.

So heres what I'm thinking it might look like:

Musical or Comedy:
Walk the Line
The Producers
Rent
Rumor Has It
40 Year Old Virgin

Walk the Line most likely takes it. The Producers is 2nd but if it wins this it would have to be spectacular. Oscar BP nomination spectacular.

That looks pretty accurate. :thumbsup:
I doubt Narnia will be nominated (you never know though...), and New World was moved to next year, right?
I really hope Wedding Crashers doesn't get a nomination. Hehe. :tongue:

I think The New World is supposed to have a qualifying run in NY and LA in 2005 so it will be eligible. Narnia won't be nominated.

Wedding Crashers was a hell of lot better than Virgin, so i hope they both get nominated!

Comedy or Musical:

The Producers
Walk The Line
Rent
Rumor Has It
The Upside Of Anger (had to throw a wild card in there somewhere)
Author:  Shack [ Thu Sep 08, 2005 12:07 am ]
Post subject: 
Yeah the Upside of Anger, that has a chance. And I'm beginning to think 40 Year Old Virgin is the 4th nomination, meaning it has a better chance than the 5th Rumor Has It. 40YOV is one of the best reviewed movies of the year...

40 Year Old Virgin will never be nominated, ditto Wedding Crashers. They aren't the only comedies to perform spectacularly and get good reviews.

If we assume 5 nominees in each category:

Drama:
A History of Violence
Brokeback Mountain
Jarhead
Memoirs of a Geisha
Munich

Musical & Comedy:
Broken Flowers
Elizabethtown
The Producers: A Movie Musical
Rent
Walk the Line

Jerry McGuire ran as a Comedy (lost to Evita).

Winners being Walk the Line and I'm thinking Munich.

Quality doesn't matter as much to the Globes, so it doesn't matter how horrible they are, the fact that there is singing/dancing musicals will make The Producers and Rent nominees.

I'm pretty confident with my comedy nominees. The Globes have been kind to Crowe and Broken Flowers is going to be the Sideways/Lost in Translation type film (in other words, it will win a lot of IFC Independent Spirit Awards). Usually only one or two pictures in this category gets a BP nom at the Oscars and that will probably be WTL.

Anything could happen in the drama category.

As much as I disagree with your 40YOV will never get one statement, I'll let that be for now.

Post subject: 
Yeah I forgot about Charlie, that has a definite chance too.

EDIT- While on that wavelength we can't leave out Corpse Bride's shot. The reviews so far are good for it.

I would normally go for it, but this year it has itself a problem. Out of the two, 40YOV has better praise and reviews, and is much more likely to nominated.

And I agree that it is the more deserving of the two.


But Wedding Crashers also has good reviews, even if not as good as 40 YO Virgin. And box office DOES play a factor into nominations. Hmmm, if 40 Year Old Virgin somehow ends up with $140+ million I agree it will be the one more likely to end up nominated (if either is).
