Robbed of Oscar nominations!


I feel like either Paul Dano or Daniel Radcliffe should have received nominations. Daniel's Manny especially, is the most unique character portrayed in movies in recent memory.

Should have gotten noms for screenplay and score too. Ugh. So annoying when they overlook truly original, amazing films.

reply

Agreed
sadly expected this movie to be overlooked, same goes for Hunt for the wilderpeople and The handmaiden
Truly original and fresh cinema often dont get recognition by the academy

Cause this movie is nonsensical, boring, stupid, and drags on forever.

reply

Agreed. This is the movie I remember most from a year full of great ones. It was weird and wonderful and superbly acted.

But hey, we knew the Oscars wouldn't touch it.
