April 9, 20178 yr Author Well, results certainly aren't going to be happening tonight because my laptop won't charge anymore and it's out of battery so it just isn't turning on.... :/ Sorry guys, I'll let you know when I can host the results properly :(
April 18, 20178 yr Author http://www.specktra.net/images/c/cc/ccaa6329_lana-del-rey-tumblr-quotes-young-and-beautiful-i1.gif BEST SONG 01. The Great Gatsby - Lana Del Rey - Young & Beautiful (5,3) 02. Frozen - Idina Menzel - Let It Go (3,3) 03. One Chance - Taylor Swift - Sweeter Than Fiction (2,1) 04. Frozen - Kristen Bell, Agatha Lee Monn & Katie Lopez - Do You Want To Build A Snowman (0,1) 05. Frozen - Idina Menzel & Kristen Bell - For The First Time In Forever (Reprise) (0,0) So we start of the results tonight with a big surprise already! I think a lot of people were perhaps expecting Frozen to sweep in this category but it seems the tracks may have cancelled each other out as it shockingly doesn't win and two of its tracks come bottom in the category :o Lana is definitely a deserving winner and was my personal pick as it is one of her best tracks imo but there is no denying that Let It Go became a cultural phenomenon and was a deserving winner in this category at the actual Oscars. I was shocked to even see the reprise of For The First Time In Forever even here so no shock at it coming last but it is way better than the first version in the film imo, it builds really well and I love how Anna & Elsa sing over each other :wub:

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (3,0) 03. 12 Years A Slave (2,3) 04. Frozen (1,1) 05. You're Next (1,1) 06. The Wolf of Wall Street (0,3) And the second of the award of the night goes to Her! A good script is key to a film's success and everyone was buzzing about the intricacies and thought-provoking moments in Her's screenplay back in 2013 so it's no surprise to see it win here. I wonder if a beloved script means good things for its chances at winning Best Film here later on? Everything picked up a vote here unlike in the last category but it is the Wolf of Wall Street that comes in last here despite being the bridesmaid in a fair few votes, it does have some good laughs! I was shocked at how well 12 Years a Slave did in this actually but the film has really stuck with me despite not seeing it since the cinema, it's really brutal and the dialogue used really makes you wince.
April 18, 20178 yr Yay! One of two Lana songs I really like! It works so well in the movie. I adore the reprise of FTFTIF so I'm very happy to see it got into the voting stages ahead of the uninteresting original, imo. In fact the Frozen songs were spot on for this category!
April 18, 20178 yr I think 12 Years and Her were my top 2 from this category, so yessss at those two being voted that way! Both very good films!
April 18, 20178 yr Author Yay! One of two Lana songs I really like! It works so well in the movie. I adore the reprise of FTFTIF so I'm very happy to see it got into the voting stages ahead of the uninteresting original, imo. In fact the Frozen songs were spot on for this category! Definitely agree with this whole post, the first FTFTIF is so dull and I've always had a hatred for the cringey Love Is An Open Door too, only In Summer would be worthy of a nomination out of the snubs here for me (but I'd still rank it 4th out of the Frozen tracks).
April 18, 20178 yr Love the Her script but I found frozen/catching fire/you're next all better tbh! This isn't going well for me so far!!
April 18, 20178 yr Author http://cdn2-www.comingsoon.net/assets/uploads/2013/12/file_112041_0_her-header.jpg BEST VOICE PERFORMANCE 01. Her - Scarlett Johansson (4,1) 02. Wreck-It Ralph - John C. Reilly (2,3) 03. Frozen - Idina Menzel (1,3) 04. Frozen - Kristen Bell (1,1) 05. Frozen - Josh Gad (1,0) Another category that all the Frozen nominees seem to have cancelled themselves out in, sorry Sam but it's really not doing too well tonight so far x_x I was half expecting Idina to win here, especially seeing as her work singing the songs basically MADE the film but she's not even top 2! I found Kristen Bell kinda bland tbh and Anna is probably my least favourite Disney princess of the lot so not too sad about that. Josh Gad was a lot of fun and In Summer is a great musical number that doesn't get enough attention in my opinion :( The winner of this tonight and second win for the film already is ScarJo for Her and it's not hard to see why when you see the film, she manages to make a relationship between a man and glorified Siri seem REAL and a lot of that is down to her. I wonder how she'll do in the supporting actress category to be revealed later on.
April 18, 20178 yr Author BEST ANIMATED FILM 01. Monsters University (3,1) 02. Frozen (2,4) 03. Despicable Me 2 (2,1) 04. Wreck-It Ralph (1,3) 05. Turbo (0,0) Yet another shock Frozen loss! Despite clearly the most widely liked film in the line-up as showcased by getting the most overall votes here but Monsters University takes the award home on first preferences. It gets a bit of a hard time in comparison to some other Pixar films, mainly for being a lazy sequel but I've always enjoyed it and think it has some great humour in it too. My personal choice would be Wreck-It Ralph though which is just heaps of fun but unfortunately only comes fourth here despite a Best Film nomination here, so excited for the sequel! Lol at Turbo as well, that never stood a chance though :lol:
