From AW: I've been voting on AW for Giamatti over Cooper and Murphy since late December. And The Holdovers over Oppenheimmer. The Holdovers = CODA, Oppenheimmer=TPOTD Giamatti (Better and more likable than Will Smith) vs Cillian Murphy (more like BC) I think Nolan gets Director (like Jane)
Not that I care, I'm just (playing and) trying to reach the number of posts necessary to see some hidden threads. As I was there just for the news I didn't vote or post anything and just this year I realized that if I had just commented on each poll all these years I would be seeing those. Not there yet.

TBF Alexander Payne is a much more prestigious director than the new director behind CODA. I haven’t watched The Holdovers but I don’t think there’s real comparison.
Also Will Smith is probably hated on those forums but he was one of the last REAL Hollywood stars. His only presence used to make millions at the box office. That’s what they were awarding with that Oscar. Giamatti is a beloved character actor with a very respected long career. Probably they would want to award that but he is not so”powerful” like popular and millionaire Smith.
Jane Campion also was favored because her career but hers is more eclectic and daring than Nolan, who is much more Hollywood. Netflix surely was a positive element for her. They campaigned on her prestigious career saying she deserved the recognition but Nolan is like Smith: a powerful hyper Hollywood box office beast.

Also we will see what happens with the Oscars but BAFTAS have a lot of the same voters and I was thinking how someone like Scorsese was considered an outsider and kinda unloved by the Academy director. He probably still is and that’s why his movie was ignored in a few key categories.
Marvel fanboys think on him like mainstream Hollywood royalty but even till the 1990s there was this division between the East and West artists (it wasn’t just rappers!) or between Hollywood and New York serious filmmakers and he was frequently ignored by the Academy. Maybe that’s still a factor for some voters. Who knows?

I'm not thinking of technical or other merits but of feelings. And not a direct translation between people or movies. I'll try to explain my idea later.

I like the total dismiss of Saltburn. I did the stupidity -because of Bafta's nominations- to watch it on demand. During 45-50 minutes nothing happens, that is, that needed that time, it was boring. Then it continued being boring and very predictable, with gratuitous scenes for shocking purposes. I was annoyed when Shrader took Bergman's Winter Light + Diary of a Country Priest and made First Reformed, which won was nominated for original script (although Shrader never denied the influences), but First Reform was a very good film with the best performance by Ethan Hawke I've ever seen. Saltburn is a mix of Brideshead Revisited + The Talented Mr. Ripley + Passolini's Teorema but shallow and pretentious. I absolutely hated it. I still can't believe they nominated it to so many Baftas.
Someone made this.

It’s perplexing because it wasn’t well received but the pr “acted” like it was acclaimed and it seems it worked on some quarters of social media and… with BAFTA voters but not anywhere else! lol
I haven’t watched it so I can’t honestly give an opinion but someone said of Twitter that it was a!not very good version of The Talented Mr Ripley then someone else asked if “Ripley” had this and that over the top shocking scenes and I was “what?” lol It seems they really wanted to shock.

Óscar discourse is so bad, doesn’t?
Also I want to say that I watched Nyad and yeah, it’s a forgettable bio (which doesn’t mention that the feat described is being questioned until today) but I kinda enjoyed it and I think that both Annette Bening and Jodie Foster are brilliant in it and I’m glad they both are nominated. And it’s great that Foster is also having a major HBO hit right now! She is great in it, by the way! Even better than in Nyad.
