March 5, 20187 yr Author Under old ballot it would have been 3 Billboards all the way, this new system awards movies like spotlight and this. And even Moonlight wasn't all that. Exactly. 3 Billboards/La La Land/Revenant/Gravity would have all very likely won and possibly Boyhood as well?
March 5, 20187 yr Exactly. 3 Billboards/La La Land/Revenant/Gravity would have all very likely won and possibly Boyhood as well? I'd say Hacksaw Ridge and Mad Max would have won under the old rules.
March 5, 20187 yr Oh my. I am actually PISSED that 'This Is Me' didn't win!! :cry: Not even the second best option.
March 5, 20187 yr Shape of Water is such a boring win when Get Out, Call Me By Your Name and Lady Bird are all right there.
March 5, 20187 yr Great Best Picture winner *. I was thinking Three Billboards... might have snatched it what with the growing hype, but this does seem reminiscent of the Spotlight-The Revenant race in 2016. It's great to see the academy embrace something so odd and that's the first fantasy film to win since Lord of the Rings back in 2003! (If there's been any others I don't know about them). Otherwise, I don't think there's any shocks there at all and I can't find any ~scandal~ moments so seems a fairly standard ceremony, albeit one that was certainly diverse. I am surprised at Remember Me beating The Greatest Showman's song (though that's a great surprise as that song is beautiful :wub:)
