Posted January 7, 20187 yr This years BAFTA nominations are revealed in a few days so I thought it would be a good time to get the general discussion thread up! There will also be a new host announced on Tuesday (when nominees are announced) with Stephen Fry stepping down from hosting. Rising Star nominees: Daniel Kaluuya Florence Pugh Josh O'Connor Tessa Thompson Timothee Chalemet
January 9, 20187 yr Author Joanna Lumley is hosting this year! <3 Picture: - Call me by your name - darkest hour - Dunkirk - shape of water - three billboards Off the top of my head, Shape lead Nominations with 12 The post completely snubbed, so was Judi dench as well :o Film stars turned up in actor/actress/Screenplay, exact same for I tonya but supporting actress instead of actor, Three billboards got both supporting actors in, Hugh Grant got supporting actor as well And another all male director field :/ (the usual contenders + Vileneuve). I really think this is going to propel get out/lady bird to a best picture win if Gerwig or Peele are snubbed at Oscars, similar to Affleck with Argo.
January 9, 20187 yr Paddington 2 being a BAFTA nominee in an acting category :lol: amazing. So happy that Annette Bening and Jamie Bell have got in <3

February 18, 20187 yr Author These are tonight! I'm low-key expecting a Dunkirk sweep to make this race even crazier than it already is.
February 19, 20187 yr Three Billboards really did that! Annoyed at the Call Me By Your Name snub though :(.
February 19, 20187 yr Winners: Best Picture: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Rising Star: Daniel Kaluuya Outstanding British Film:Three Billbourds Outside Ebbing, Missouri Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer: I Am Not A Witch - Rungano Nyoni (Writer/director), Emily Morgan (Producer) Best Film Not in the English Language: The Handmaiden Best Documentary: I Am Not Your Negro Best Animated Film: Coco Best Director: Guillermo Del Toro, The Shape of Water Best Original Screenplay: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Best Adapted Screenplay: Call Me By Your Name Best Actress: Frances McDormand, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Best Actor: Gary Oldman, Darkest Hour Best Supporting Actress: Allison Janney, I, Tonya Best Supporting Actor: Sam Rockwell, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri Best Original Music: The Shape of Water Best Cinematography: Blade Runner 2049 Best Editing: Baby Driver Best Production Design: The Shape of Water Best Costume Design: Phantom Thread Best Make Up and Hair: David Malinowski, Ivana Primorac, Lucy Sibbick, Kazuhiro Tsuji, Darkest Hour Best Sound: Dunkirk Best Special Visual Effects: Blade Runner 2049 Best British Short Animation: Poles Apart Best British Short Film: Cowboy Dave Academy Fellowship: Ridley Scott Outstanding Contribution to British Cinema: National Film and Television School I certainly can't say any were undeserved (particularly pleased for Blade Runner and Dunkirk's incredible sound rightfully recognised), but there's no winners there I wouldn't have called which made it a bit boring :/ It somehow didn't strike me that Three Billboards... is primarily a British production due to the director, so I suppose I should've seen the domination coming. Still feels a little weird seeing it as a British film :lol: The highlights were definitely Frances McDormand and Guillermo Del Toro's speeches, was so great hearing something a little bit different from 'thanks to everyone, this is so amazing/inspiring etc.'
