So guys here is a little suggestion of what the nominees for the 83rd annual Academy Awards could look like. I will run through the films, that are worthy of taking a look and then take a bit about the chances and the possible awards.
The Social Network - After an impressive way to kick off award season, winning every major Golden Globe, this movie looks like the sure frontrunner in the Major Award department. The nominations for Best Picture, Best Screenplay, Best Director are a sure thing. Also Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield are pretty sure to be nominated for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor. The chances of both to win these awards are limited, but at least they will get the recognition they deserve by getting a nomination.
Other possible nominations are coming off Best Score and Best Editing.
I think we are looking at the big winner of this years Academy Awards, Best Director and Best Original Screenplay are looking to score golden statues for this film, and with the victory in Best Picture this movie has the momentum on it´s site.
The King's Speech - The BAFTA nominations are giving this movie a real boost heading into the nominations. Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor are a lock for this movie. Also Helena Bonham Carter can hope for a nomination as Best Supporting Actress and Hooper sure can get a Best Director nomination. Other than that the film might look at a possible nomination in the minor award department with Costum Design and Art Direction.
Colin Firth is the frontrunner in the Best Actor department scoring a Golden Globe and a BAFTA nomination in that category. Geoffrey Rush chances are limited because of the strong competition and also the Best Picture and Best Director awards seem to be a bit out of reach, but the Academy suprised everyone last year with bailing on Avatar maybe The King's Speech can be next Hurt Locker.
Black Swan - This movie created a lot of buzz going out of the BAFTA nominations scoring second most nominations next to The King's Speech. Academy wise this movie will get a nomination for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress and maybe Mila Kunis will get recognition as Best Supporting Actress. Those awards might go to different movies, except the Best Actress Award that will go to Natalie Portman or it will be the biggest flaw since Best Picture 1990. Vincent Cassel will not get a nomination, but Best Screenplay, Best Costum, Best Art and Best Make Up can be possible nominations as well. Black Swan will get at least 1 Award!
Inception - The buzz faded a bit over the last weeks with not scoring any Globe and not doing so great at the BAFTA nominations, still this movie will get recognition in the Best Picture and Best Director department. Leonardo DiCaprio might be looking at a Best Actor nomination although the competition is really tough there. Other than that Best Screenplay, Best Visual Effects and Best Cinematography are possible nominations as well. And in those sections the chances for the Sci-Fi Adventure are pretty high. I still think that the twisting hallway scene is worth an award!
The Fighter - Obviously Best Picture will be a nomination, but the chances are limited there. The Fighter will look for an Award in the Actor and Actress department with 4 great chances. Christian Bale will get a nomination in Best Supporting Actor and he might take this award home like he did with the Globe. Amy Adams and Melissa Leo will get a nomination for Best Supporting Actress for sure, and Mark Wahlberg can opt at a Best Actors nomination, although he seems to fall short against Colin Firth.
Those are the 5 big movies, that will get a chunk of nominations and are a look in the Best Picture department. Other movies will be named below, with possible chances. Since the Best Picture category is up to 10 movies, some other movies will get attention at the Big Stage.
True Grit - possible nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best adapted Screenplay, Best Actor (Jeff Bridges) and Best Supporting Actress (Hailee Steinfeld)
The Kid are all right - possible nomination for Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor (Mark Ruffalo) and definite nominations for Best Actress (Annette Bening) maybe also Julianne Moore will get the nomination there.
Toy Story 3 - maybe an animated fill in the Best Picture category, but in Toy Story 3 we are looking at the award winner for Best Animated Picture 2011!
The Town - 10 movies are a chance for The Town to get a nomination for Best Picture. Also Jeremy Renner will be nominated for Best Supporting Actor!
Winter's Bone - Similar to The Town this movie can get the recognition with a nomination for Best Picture. Would be a great success for this indie production! Maybe they are able to get two nominations with Jennifer Lawrence who could be looking at a nomination in Best Actress.
One last movie, that is on nobodys list, but I heard quite some good reviews also from a source that could be a part of balloting.
Ghostwriter can be a possible pick for Best Picture replacing either The Town, Winter's Bone or Toy Story 3. Other chances are limited except maybe the Screenplay award. Maybe this movie can get 2 nominations as well.
So that´s it with my list we will know how well my picks were, when the Academy announces the nominees January 25th.
