Noita Moneyballin ehdokkuuksia näyttelijäkategorioissa ei kyllä pysty ymmärtämään. Muutenkin varsin tylsältä vaikuttaa lista. Milloin viimeksi Meryl Streep ja Kate Winslet eivät ole olleet ehdolla?

Siinä mielessä mielenkiintoiselta vaikuttava vuosi, ettei mikään yksittäinen elokuva ole rohmunnut palkintoja yksittäisestä palkintogaalasta vaan eri osoitteisiin menee miltei jokainen pysti. Jälleen kerran harmittaa, että Suomessa moni näkemisen arvoisista pätkistä tulee vasta monta kuukautta myöhemmin ja osa jopa vasta palkintojen jaon jälkeen, jos on edes tullakseen. Ottaa päähän nimittäin, että Hugo tulee vasta huhtikuussa...
Golden Globesia voisi näin jälkijättöisesti kommentoida jälleen kerran hieman oudosta ehdokasjaottelusta. Michele Williamsin voitosta My Week With Marilynissä ei sinänsä ole hirmuisesti vastaansanomista, mutta kyseisen elokuvan laittaminen komedia/musikaali-kategoriaan tuntuu kyllä oudolta.
No onhan se vähän liian kevyt ollakseen draama ja parissa kohdin on huumoriakin. Kyllä se lähempänä tuota kategoriaa on.
Pysyn eriävässä kannassani. Pari huumorinhäivähdystä tai edes mukana oleva koominen hahmo (Kenneth Branaghin pompöösinä Olivierina voi tällaiseksi laskea) ei tee elokuvasta komediaa.
Kyllähän draamassakin saa olla huumoria ilman että se leimattaisiin hauskaksi, mutta tässä sitä oli miltei enemmän kuin draamaa.

Ei sitten Drivelle juuri mitään Hassua triviaa että Gary Oldmanille vasta ensimmäinen ehdokkuus koskaan.
Ei pohjoismaisia mukana Best Foreign Language Film of the Year -kategoriassa. Silmiin pisti myös tämä: The Tree of Life (2011): Nominees to be determined. Liekö copy&paste-virhe vai mikä tuossa on epäselvää
Noin se liveläheytksessäkin sanottiin. Lieneekö kyse siitä, että eivät tienneet keille palkintoa elokuvan suurehkosta tuottajajoukosta ehdottavat. Luulisi tosin, että asia olisi selvillä jo tässä vaiheessa.
Onpas kovia nimiä miessivuosaehdokkuuksissa... Vastaavasti naisista en tunnista ketään. Toki pääosaehdokkuuksissa taas tuttuja. Meryl Streep = tylsä. Oldmanille voisi suoda kyllä.
Aika yllättäviä nimiä löytyy ehdokkaista ja myöskin selkeitä eroavaisuuksia Golden Globe -ehdokkaisiin. Varsinkin tuolta näyttelijäkategorioista löytyy paljon normiehdokkaista poikkeavia nimiä ja jopa todellisia yllätysnimiä (Demián Bichir?). Parhaan animaation GG:n voittanut Tintti ei ole edes ehdolla paras animaatio -kategoriassa. Liekö tässä joku tekninen homma, ettei akatemia laske varsinaiseksi animaatioksi?
