04. Big Eyes - Christoph Waltz (1 / 1)
05. Birdman - Edward Norton (0 / 3)
05. Boyhood - Ethan Hawke (0 / 3)

I was expecting both Edward & Ethan to be top 3 before I started counting votes so I am shocked to see them crash out in joint last place with no 1st preference votes between them :o Both actors scored Oscar nominations for their performances and received three 2nd preference votes each! Both of them were fantastic, Ethan especially, so I'm glad they repeated their Oscar nominations here! In 4th we have Big Eyes for Christoph Waltz who was fantastic in his role & like the film, should have received more attention with the actual awards here but he manages to score a couple of votes here & puts in a solid performance!

Dan v J.K. v Sebastian. Who's won?

Actress pt. 1 coming up! Any predicts?!

Not so sure about Sebastian Stan doing so well here, he is rly attractive but that's not what we were voting for, right? :lol:

 

A bit gutted about Norton & Hawke coming last. Simmons was untouchable this year really but both would have easily won in both other years for me, I was a bit sad that I couldn't give Hawke even a second preference vote :(

03. Wild - Reese Witherspoon (1 / 3)
04. Lucy - Scarlett Johansson (1 / 2)
05. Big Eyes - Amy Adams (1 / 0)

Oops for Amy :( Whilst Big Eyes has yet to win anything, its been midtable in all its Awards so far but Amy struggles to find her footing in this category! This is her 2nd nomination after she nearly won for Arrival this year, & I'm sure she'll score many more nominations as we continue to advance through the years! Anyway Amy is fantastic as ever but I would probably have her in 5th here tbh, such a strong category! Next up is Scar-Jo with her titular role in big-hit 'Lucy', one of my favourite films of recent years & Scarlett kills it, she is so watchable & enjoyable in this and carries the film completely! Into 3rd we have my favourite performance from the ladies in such a strong year, from Reese Witherspoon in Wild who is just fabulous & anchors the film with a powerful and great performance! I'm glad she did well enough here to come top 3! <3

Julianne v Rosamund. Who's won?

FFS.

 

Sebby was the best thing about CA:WS Josh :smoke: he manages to convey a ton of emotion with just his eyes and makes a sympathetic character even though he

rarely speaks.

04. Whiplash - Miles Teller (1 / 2)
05. The Maze Runner - Dylan O'Brien (1 / 1)
06. Unbroken - Jack O'Connell (1 / 0)
07. Boyhood - Ellar Coltrane (0 / 2)

In the biggest category, its all the younger actors that crash out first! First up is Boyhood which really isn't having a great evening, can Patricia score it a win later or will it go home empty-handed? Anyway Ellar Coltrane was the only actor to not score a first preference vote but he still got a couple of 2nd preference votes for a performance that he played for 12 years! Next up is Jack O'Connell who shocked me to get a nomination but I am so glad, he was so fantastic in the underrated Unbroken and his performance was so overlooked, he is a fantastic actor & I hope he gets another Oscar-ry role in a few years! Cracking the all important top 5 was another shocker for me, Dylan O'Brien for YA franchise The Maze Runner in which once again he is fantastic & gives an incredible performance! <3 Whilst into 4th we have another Sam favourite, Miles Teller, for his lead role in 'Whiplash' in which he is fantastic and works perfectly alongside J.K. Simmons music teacher. Miles really should've got more attention over Awards season for his performance!

Ben v Chris v Eddie. Who's won?

01. Edge Of Tomorrow - Emily Blunt (4 / 1)
02. The Imitation Game - Keira Knightly (3 / 2)
03. Boyhood - Patricia Arquette (3 / 1)
04. St Vincent - Naomi Watts (2 / 1)
05. Still Alice - Kristen Stewart (0 / 5)

So one category down and we already have a shock winner :o WD Emily <3 Such a surprise & well deserved win, I was not expecting to enjoy Edge of Tomorrow at all when I saw it but it took me completely by surprise and Emily was the highlight in it! She was utterly fabulous & is possibly my favourite performance of hers yet :o Emily received 4 first preference votes to win here!

So this means just missing out are Oscar nominee Keira Knightly & Oscar winner Patricia Arquette, both actresses getting three 1st preference votes but Keira gets 2nd place due to more 2nd preference votes! Two more great performances, this category is so strong!

FFS.

I've never particularly warmed to The Winter Soldier. I can only speak for myself but he's always come across as a bit of a dick character and I don't think Seb does a job that some other actors couldn't do with the role.

 

Emily Blunt is a GREAT choice there, would never have predicted her to win but she has so many great performances but I always forgot to mention her in that, she totally stole the show from Tom Cruise too! Yay at Keira Knightley picking up a fair few votes too, I was low-key expecting her to come last :lol: I love her and think she did a great job in that film but she's not the most diverse actress, bless :lol:

01. Whiplash - J.K. Simmons (5 / 1)
02. Captain America: The Winter Soldier - Sebastian Stan (3 / 2)
03. The Guest - Dan Stevens (3 / 0)
04. Big Eyes - Christoph Waltz (1 / 1)
05. Birdman - Edward Norton (0 / 3)
05. Boyhood - Ethan Hawke (0 / 3)

No surprise here! Despite not even being in the original nominations (I accidentally put Miles Teller in both categories), J.K. Simmons still manages to easily repeat his real life Oscar win here for his terrifyingly great role as the teacher in Whiplash! There was a reason for why he dominated the Awards Circuit the entire season & I'm glad he repeated it here with 5 first preference votes!

So that leaves Sebastian Stan in 2nd & Dan Stevens in 3rd, two actors who I don't really think got anywhere near the official Awards season! Sebby has a pretty big fanbase on Buzzjack and this sees him pick up 5 votes in total, alas the same with Dan having quite a lot of fans on here which see him pick up 3 first preference votes for his role in horror-thriller 'The Guest'! Both performances were really good!

Quick rank of Emily Blunt performances for the funz

 

01 The Girl on the Train

02 The Devil Wears Prada

03 Into the Woods

04 Edge of Tomorrow

05 Sicario

 

Can't believe she still has NO OScar nominations, she'd comfortably have two or three by now if it was up to me.

01. Gone Girl - Rosamund Pike (5 / 3)
02. Still Alice - Julianne Moore (4 / 3)
03. Wild - Reese Witherspoon (1 / 3)
04. Lucy - Scarlett Johansson (1 / 2)
05. Big Eyes - Amy Adams (1 / 0)

ANOTHER win for Gone Girl here! :o How far can it go! Anyway Rosamund very narrowly beats Julianne in probably the most competitive acting category of them all! Rosamund was actually miles ahead at the start but Julianne started to make a comeback though Rosamund always managed to hold onto her lead till the end! The two actresses got 15 out of the 23 first/second preference votes! Rosamund was utterly fabulous in 'Gone Girl' and pulled off her character so well as the 'amazing' Amy <3 She really commanded the film and that scene in particular (y'all know what one I mean) was just incredible acting, she completely slayed!

Though Julianne was also as good as Rosamund and FINALLY won a way overdue Oscar for her performance as a woman suffering from dementia in the powerful 'Still Alice'. Julianne deservedly dominated the Awards Circuit all year long and this performance epitimizes why she is so good, a powerful and incredible performance! Julianne picked up four 1st preference votes here! <3

Just actor & picture left! Will Chris Pratt go a step further than Sebby? Will Ben continue the Gone Girl domination? Or will Eddie make it an 100% win rate for Theory of Everything?

05. The Maze Runner - Dylan O'Brien (1 / 1)
06. Unbroken - Jack O'Connell (1 / 0)
07. Boyhood - Ellar Coltrane (0 / 2)

Penultimate category. Another win for Gone Girl! Will it take Best Picture to become one of the very rare film to win ALL of the BIG FIVE?!

Ben was fantastic in Gone Girl and I'm really glad he won here! He deserved more attention during Oscar season & he really portrayed his character perfectly. So well deserved & Ben scored four 1st preference votes to win! <3 Just behind him was actual Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne for TTOE, his 2nd nomination without a win here. He is really good in the film but I'm genuinely not sure I would have him in my top 5 for that year :o I think the only Eddie performance I would have actually nominated him for an Oscar for was Les Miserables!! In 3rd place is Chris Pratt who put up a fight for his role in the superhero epic and scored 5 votes overall! Chris is fantastic & I am so hyped for the sequel!!

BEST PICTURE: PREDICT

 

Boyhood

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

Gone Girl

Guardians Of The Galaxy

Lucy

Still Alice

The Maze Runner

Whiplash

Wild

X-Men: Days of Future Past

 

TWO PREDICTIONS NEEDED. Then will reveal all

Any of Whiplash, Still Alice or the three superhero movies for the win!! I really wish Still Alice got more appreciation this awards season for the film itself rather than just Julianne.

 

Expecting Wild to come last, I think?

Lucy flops with 0/0 oops! Still glad it at least made it into the line-up!
The Maze Runner does pretty solid here and rounds off an ok evening for a film which really could have come dead last in the categories it was competing in!
On the other hand Boyhood rounds off a horrific evening with another poor result as the critically acclaimed picture failed to even pick up one first preference vote! So Boyhood wins none of its 5 awards oops.
