 No Guts No Glory nominations predictions! Okay, what are your bravest predictions for the Oscar ballot to be revealed on February 2nd? And I mean really gutsy predictions, not something like District 9 or Star Trek getting a BP nom! Mine:- Anthony Mackie will get nominated for Best Supporting Actor for The Hurt Locker - District 9 will have eight or more nominations in total - Emily Blunt will get a Best Actress nom for The Young Victoria Bring on your crazy calls!  _________________The greatest thing on earth is to love and to be loved in return!

Re: No Guts No Glory nominations predictions! i.hope wrote: Avatar for Best Foreign Language Film (The first ever entry from Pandora). Brings up a good question... Can a movie with a made up language be eligible for a nom? _________________trixster wrote: shut the fuck up zwackerm, you're out of your fucking element trixster wrote: chippy is correct

Re: No Guts No Glory nominations predictions! I think yes (as long as it's produced outside the US). According to the Academy ( http://www.oscars.org/awards/academyawa ... ule14.html), a foreign language film is: Quote:
defined as a feature-length motion picture produced outside the United States of America with a predominantly non-English dialogue track.
But with some restriction: Quote: Accurate English-language subtitles are required.

Re: No Guts No Glory nominations predictions! It needs to be submitted by a country where the language is an official spoken language, though.

Re: No Guts No Glory nominations predictions! Well I think so
1. Sandra Bullock will win The Best Actress
2. Avatar will be nominated for Best Screenplay
3. Star Trek and District 9 both combined will not grab even a single award

Re: No Guts No Glory nominations predictions! I think the Golden Globes will make or break Sandra Bullock's chances of winning. If she gets the best actress award and gives a very well received speech, it will certainly help her immensely. She'll be in a $250 m film afterall and this really is Erin Brockovich the sequel even if the traditional critics aren't giving her their full support. The public is!

Re: No Guts No Glory nominations predictions! Hmm, I'd bet a lot of money against that, heh.
