I still hold out hope that Dunkirk will win Best Director, Cinematography, Score, Editing, both Sound Awards, and maybe Production Design.lcbaseball22 wrote:The 80 score on the CriticsChoice website (formerly BFCA.org) may put it out of contention in major categories should that score stand (ie all Best Pic nominees the last five years scored 85 or higher; 59 out of 62 have since the Academy expanded the Best Pic category) but I'm guessing it's premature.
Really I just want to see Nolan get an overdue Best Director nomination if nothing else; the Director's Guild has nominated him 3 times (Memento, The Dark Knight, Inception) yet the Academy has continued to snub him I don't even care if he wins (hell Hitchcock and Kubrick never won) just to see him get a well deserved nomination would be nice.
Um, tbh, I was worried about this score a little. People here were freaking out when it dropped fast to 86 and no one could understand what's wrong. But then I saw some tweet on twitter saying that it is like 5 people who voted there and this person even named scores of that 5 people. I didn't believe it first (bc i really don't know if it was true or not), but then it stuck on 86 for days and dropped only yesterday to 85 and then to 80... that made me think there are really like 7 people who voted and tbh it would explain why the score is so low. When we have amazing reviews everywhere. (sorry about my english. I'm not a native speaker)lcbaseball22 wrote:The 80 score on the CriticsChoice website (formerly BFCA.org)
Yeah, it's probably less than 10 reviewers at this point; they are somewhat notorious for prematurely posting scores but not saying how many or who. I like to reference them but it can be annoying when you don't know if the score has settled out or not. Anyways, just saying if the score doesn't rebound to at least 85 I would say Best Pic is unlikely based on past trends. Just something to keep in mind folks.Eleni wrote:Um, tbh, I was worried about this score a little. People here were freaking out when it dropped fast to 86 and no one could understand what's wrong.

OK, if you're asking.Bale Fan wrote:^ why? Could you elaborate? I'm genuinely curious because you've been calling the screenplay horrible but never given any reasons. And it's an unusual complaint since I've yet to hear any reviews mentioning that.
