But yeah, it's cool to see Nolan finally get recognized by the directors branch.

Lee Smith:
Hoyte:“It’s feel like a lifetime achievement award,” said Smith of his third Oscar nomination and his second with longtime collaborator Christopher Nolan (he was previously nominated for Nolan’s The Dark Knight). “It’s a very good day, I keep seeing my emails,” he adds, saying he’s already been sharing congratulations with Nolan, Emma Thomas and members of the team, including sound, cinematography and of course, editorial departments. “Dunkirk was an incredibly satisfying film to work on as an editor, and to be recognized by my peers and the Academy is a wonderful feeling.”
Hans:“I was asleep,” admitted Van Hoytema, saying his wife woke him to the news of his first Oscar nomination. “It’s lovely; it feels great. I’m very proud. The film is make by a tight group and I feel we were really in this together, under the leadership of Chris [Nolan]. My recognition belongs as much to Chris. He comes up with the curve balls and challenges and you do your best.”
Also thought this post by Wally was nice:“Thank you to the academy for this extraordinary honor and to be in the company of such great talent. I would especially like to thank Chris Nolan for his vision in making such a bold, and experimental movie into a success. This score is as much Chris Nolan’s work as it is mine and our collaborative spirit is infused through this film. It is the hardest and closest collaboration we have done to date. The thing that I’m proudest about the work on Dunkirk is that you can’t separate the sound from the images. Chris and I have now been working together for 16 years and it’s always been our ambition, somehow, that the score and the images become one total experience.”

Wouldn't ever have happened, but Best Original Screenplay would have been good, as well as Best Visual Effects.
No. No he is not.Geoffrey wrote: ↑January 23rd, 2018, 3:45 pmIf Nolan wanted a better chance of winning, he should have in a very hamfisted manner, retooled Dunkirk to denounce neo-Nazism and promote European unity.
Ben Shapiro is a good guy. Though I wouldn't ever call him a cinemaphile, and he's probably at least slightly biased because of Dunkirk being a WW2 movie and his Judaism.Reaveybeach wrote: ↑January 23rd, 2018, 12:07 pmBen Shapiro is a fucking moron, don't listen to that tool.
