Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
Best Screenplay of the Year But we must look a little closer. And when we do, we see that the doughnut hole has a hole in its center - it is not a doughnut hole at all but a smaller doughnut with its own hole, and our doughnut is not a hole at all! https://i.imgur.com/qj9Cgik.jpg I think you are the most annoying person I have ever met. I hate being with you, I hate looking at you... And if I had my way I would never - see you - again. https://i.imgur.com/3he1CXJ.jpg We discussed things. We were married, we said things. We talked about moving to Europe, about getting a sideboard or what do you call it, a credenza, to fill that empty space behind the couch. We never did any of it. https://i.imgur.com/wXjEOEb.jpg You're the one with the big mouth, and I would really enjoy closing it, especially in front of all my friends. But my hands are registered as lethal weapons. That means, we get into a fight, I accidentally kill you? I go to jail. https://i.imgur.com/1ZyBGPr.jpg You know what kind of plan never fails? No plan. No plan at all. You know why? Because life cannot be planned. Look around you. Did you think these people made a plan to sleep in the sports hall with you? But here we are now, sleeping together on the floor. So, there's no need for a plan. https://i.imgur.com/E5S4o8S.jpg Best Supporting Actress of the Year Florence Pugh - Little Women https://i.imgur.com/1kqMPbY.jpg Laura Dern - Marriage Story https://i.imgur.com/dUwinNK.jpg Scarlett Johansson - jojo Rabbit https://i.imgur.com/xV6QSzc.jpg Park So Dam - Parasite https://i.imgur.com/kfnx8OR.jpg Cho Yeo Jeong - Parasite https://i.imgur.com/0YSN1fR.jpg Best Supporting Actor of the Year Brad Pitt- Once Upon A Time In Hollywood https://i.imgur.com/Rtexqpq.jpg Joe Pesci - The Irishman https://i.imgur.com/3jtZoRs.jpg Al Pacino - The Irishman https://i.imgur.com/OrzznNu.jpg Willem Dafoe - The Lighthouse https://i.imgur.com/Kl23i5A.jpg Song Kang ho - Parasite https://i.imgur.com/cCBPmJy.jpg Best Actress of the Year Saoirse Ronan - Little Women https://i.imgur.com/wWprs7P.jpg Scarlett Johansson - Marriage Story https://i.imgur.com/4QLvfzQ.jpg Lupita Nyong'o - Us https://i.imgur.com/fUmDByi.jpg Ana de Armas - Knives Out https://i.imgur.com/HucpYqE.jpg Elisabeth Moss - Her Smell https://i.imgur.com/FakRmcu.jpg Best Actor of the Year Robert Pattinson - The Lighthouse https://i.imgur.com/0NvGWmF.jpg Leonardo Dicaprio - Once Upon A Time In Hollywood https://i.imgur.com/vH7ceVR.jpg Joaquin Phoenix - Joker https://i.imgur.com/PWrE3Aq.jpg Adam Driver - Marriage Story https://i.imgur.com/gWc0dmG.jpg Adam Sandler - Uncut Gems https://i.imgur.com/3he1CXJ.jpg Best Director of the Year Quentin Tarantino - Once Upon A Time In Hollywood https://i.imgur.com/x8dG600.jpg Sam Mendes - 1917 https://i.imgur.com/TuJJ5oe.jpg Bong Joon Ho - Parasite https://i.imgur.com/R0e6Bok.jpg Martin Scoresese - The Irishman https://i.imgur.com/cNmwEiC.jpg Said Brothers - Uncut Gems https://i.imgur.com/B3kNbgN.jpg |

Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
Initial Thoughts:
The divisive Joker took home 5 nominations. Phoenix got the lock with Best Actor and it picked up Best Sound and Best Score as well. But people seem to think it might be overrated, since it earned a nom in that category but did not pick up a Best Picture nomination. Parasite, which won multiple Oscars, seems to be the big front runner to beat here picking up major nominations in big categories. It earned a whopping 11 nominations. This film had the tough task of getting the actors nominated in specific categories as it seemed to be the wild west with who thought they should place them where. Yet, we have 3 acting noms for this film (all supporting). So even though some people disagreed on Supporting vs Lead, some key players picked up recognition. Add to the mix the locked Foreign, Director and Best Picture and you have 6 noms right there. It earned a screenplay nod, best cast and memorable scene. Finally sound and cinematography to finish the big total. 1917 might be following the results of the Oscars as it failed to pick up a Best Picture nomination. People recognized Sam Mendes and Roger Deakin's talent and gave them some recognition, but 1917 might have to settle for technical awards if any. Missing from the Oscars was The Lighthouse (1 nom) and Uncut Gems (0 noms) but they are richly presented here with multiple awards for each film. Adam Sandler is up against Robert Pattinson for Best Actor. Both films managed to get a Best Picture nod as well as some technical awards and acting. OUATIH received two nominations in funniest scene and a slew of others to get a total of 10 awards, right on the heels of Parasite. Will Leo take him his 3rd Award after winning for Wolf of Wall Street and The Revenant? The Irishman nabbed 8, both Pesci and Pacino in the supporting roles with DeNiro getting shut out again. Maybe The Irishman will have a repeat of the Oscars and walk away with ZERO. Surprise support for Knives Out, picking up some big nominations in Best Actress, Best Picture, Best Cast and Screenplay, it also earned Ana de Armas a Breakout Performance nod. What are your thoughts? Did Peanut Butter Falcon deserve a Best Picture slot over Joker or 1917? Was Elisabeth Moss's performance in Her Smell out of left field? Will the most recognized foreign language, documentary and animated film beat out the "best" film from that category? Let us know!!! |

Stray Observations
|
I didn't nominate anything for Best Sound because I didn't realize that was even a category. I see that Iro is in a similar boat. Was it added later, or did we both somehow miss it?
The only film I intended to watch that I didn't get around to was Ford v Ferrari, so I'll make sure to check it out before the deadline. I didn't watch Joker or The Irishman because I didn't particularly want to, but it looks like I'll have to at least watch The Irishman since it's in so many categories. This is the first time I'm hearing about Peanut Butter Falcon, or if I've heard or seen somebody talking about it before, I've completely forgotten.

I voted for only one of those films, and a different one was one of my picks for Worst Film, but it didn't make the list for that category. Similarly, a film that made the Worst Films category was one of my disappointments, but I wouldn't consider it absolutely terrible. Apparently others disagree with me though haha. |
Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
Superb graphics and layout TUS. Really like the variety of nominations here.
Glad to see Bait show up in one category, but a real shame that Joanna Hogg and The Souvenir are nowhere to be seen. Those are two films I wanted to give more nominations but were competing in crowded fields. |
It's nice to see some love for Uncut Gems. It was criminally forgotten by the Oscars but this is the Awards that count!
|
Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
My first initial thought. Hanks was robbed.
|
Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
Great job - but The Farewell in my opinion is an American film not a foreign film. Anyway I'm glad to see Bait and The Lighthouse there.
|
Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
Thought:
-No love for 'A Hidden Life' or 'Honey Boy'? Damn. -Awesome to see 'Bait' get a mention. -Also great to see 'The Lighthouse', 'Uncut Gems', Ad Astra and 'Us' getting more love here than they did in the Oscars. -As flawed as Midsommar was, I'd say it definitely deserved a cinematography mention. -Many films I picked for Biggest Surprise didn't make it (Shazam being one), a bit disappointing. -One film I quite enjoyed made it into 'Biggest Disappointment' and one film I was disappointed by made it into 'Biggest Surprise', very interesting. -Two great picks there for ‘Most over-rated’, though I think one deserves it more. There's 18 films here that I want to see but haven't seen yet (14 are only mentioned once though), I better get to it. Overall, good picks. |

I mean, if we're going by the criteria that "foreign" = "produced by another country", then The Farewell would be ineligible.

No love for Booksmart :sick:
I am happy to see Dolemite Is My Name crop up here and there. Buzzed that Lupita Nyong'o made the cut here too. |
Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
Would like to see Lupita win personally.

Re: 2019 Mofo Film Awards
Is there a voting ballot that can be copied and then filled out and sent?
