Predicting the 2016 Oscar Nominations

On homesite4 Monday morning, Hollywood woke up with a collective hangover: what homesite9 homesite1 had exactly happened last night? Did Lady Gaga really win a prize for acting? Did Sylvester Stallone really get a standing ovation? And did a movie purse replica handbags about a 19th century frontiersman played by Leonardo DiCaprio really sweep the first major our web page awards show of the season? The Golden Globes proved themselves to be, once again, the industry’s most unpredictable and frustrating awards show, an easily mocked if handy barometer of the state of the Oscars race.Lynn Hirschberg, W’s editor like it8 at large and the woman behind February’s "Best Performances” issue, was watching closely – she was in the ballroom Wholesale Replica Bags at the Beverly Hilton hotel, in fact – and she emerged from the ceremony with a few takeaways about what the Globes might mean for replica Purse the linked site0 Academy Awards nominations to be announced Thursday morning. She lays them out in an interview for W’s first podcast – available to click over here5 Fake Handbags listen below and for subscription on iTunes. Below, some excerpts from the conversation.On Best Picture“[The Globes] were an enormous night for click over here6 The Revenant. Ridley Scott was Designer Fake Bags very much the frontrunner [for Best Director] and it was very surprising click over here2 Alejandro [González Iñárritu] won; he won last year for Birdman. The Revenant linked site2 now has a good replica handbags china chance of winning Best Picture at the related site Oscars, which is not something I would have said before.It will be interesting on Thursday to see if Star Wars gets in there, that’s the question everybody’s interested in. Usually Replica Designer like it2 Handbags a bellwether is the ten homesite0 movies picked by the Producers Guild because those are some of the same voters, but this year it wasn’t one of them. That’s a result of the timing of its homesite7 release and that no one had seen it in advance. People thought it would be huge, but this is huge-er than anybody guessed."On Best Actor"Leo will go wholesale replica designer handbags ahead and like it3 win every single thing. Leo will be the only lock in this whole derby. [He’s] very much the frontrunner. And, by the way, I just want to say this: Leo’s phenomenal in the movie, he well deserves that honor, and has deserved cheap replica handbags acting honors for a long time, and he is, as they say, ‘due,’ but it’s not like he’s getting this for a movie that he is not really great in. He is the movie. He’s got great competition – Michael Fassbender, Eddie Redmayne – but it’s not going to matter."On DiCaprio’s reaction to Lady Gaga’s win"Thank God for Leo. I’m not even a Leo fan, but thank God for Leo. That summed it up. Nobody like it clapped. The room was dead. Because, there’s a famous history with the Golden Globes giving an award to Pia Zadora. It was a thing people referred to when they talked about the Globes as a more info joke. For years there was the reputation of the Globes that you could buy an award. I don’t want to high quality replica handbags assume that with Gaga – and by the way she’s massively talented as a singer and KnockOff Handbags a performer. But the idea that she’s choking up and talking about Cher and acting like she’s this remarkable actress when people like Kirsten Dunst in click over here7 Fargo really were incredible? I know it’s silly, it’s like it9 the Globes, but I literally sat there thinking, ‘I want to leave, this is ridiculous.’ I was looking through the paper today and what were the photos of? click over here The photos were of Gaga, so [the Hollywood Foreign Press Association] obviously did what they wanted to do: they got press out of it."Best Actress"The best actress category right now is a contest between Brie Larson [for Room] in the first position and Saoirse Ronan [for Brooklyn] in the second position. [Cate Blanchett] is fantastic in [Carol] but it just seems to people that she won too recently and that throws them. And also, people, for one or two click over here0 categories, like to pick someone who is new to the linked site3 Hollywood firmament, they like to anoint a new star like Jennifer Lawrence a few years ago. I think there’s an open question about whether or not someone like Charlotte Rampling gets nominated for Best Actress. She has been homesite5 campaigning a lot, she linked website was not nominated for a Globe for 45 years but theres a fair amount of love for her in Hollywood. I think it would be good for the planet, as I like to say."The Stallone Factor"Sylvester linked site Stallone [on Sunday night] won the Oscar. I don’t aaa replica designer handbags think anything else is going to come close. He’s just going to do a victory lap. The two locks from last night were Leo, which we knew already, and Stallone, which we didn’t totally know. There click over here1 linked site1 was not one person who didn’t stand. If you had to pick one person who was greatly, greatly like it0 helped by [Sunday] night, it was Stallone. He’s a sentimental favorite in a year when there aren’t many."On “The Sean Penn thing:""This whole thing is a little peculiar. The ethical questions of glorifying [Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ like it6 Guzman] are worth asking. I’m very nervous about things becoming all about the event and people not thinking through what something means in favor of getting attention for it. We’re living in a time like it4 when social media is taking precedence over content, replica handbags online when the noise is more important than what Replica Handbags homesite was being said. [Here] the picture became the story, the like it1 photograph of him on every front page, above Replica Bags Wholesale the fold shaking this guy’s hand like he’s the president. It’s a little bit the same thing, albeit in a milder version, to homesite6 Gaga winning – like it7 it’s all about the photo op. I’m sure it got six billion hits, but, is that a good thing? Sean definitely, click over here4 in a strange bizarre way, increased his stock this week. He made himself important without having a movie, without having a Designer Replica Bags movie in a really long time. Without googling it, try to name Sean’s last three films? This week he was also in Fake Designer Bags the news because of Madonna. I would say the takeaway from this week was not the Golden Globes, but Sean Penn and Madonna. I don’t homesite2 think he’s not unaware of that, nor do I click over here3 click over here9 think she’s unaware of it."On Maureen Dowd's column click over here8 comparing DiCaprio homesite8 in The Revenant to Hillary Clinton:With all due respect to Maureen, I thought that was a stretch. I thought she was Replica Bags desperately trying to get The Revenant in a column but I don't think it has much to do with Hillary. If she wanted to compare her to Jennifer Lawrence in Joy, I'd see more analogies. Hillary is like a person with a good mop, you know?XYour 2016 Oscar NominationsSlide 1 of Handbags Replica 16FBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestFBSharePinterestPreviousNext1/16ToggleJennifer Lawrence, Best Actress, "Joy.""Gen W," photographed read more here like it5 by Tim Walker, styled by Jacob homesite3 K; W magazine October 2012.Full Screen.
