Django, Argo and Zero Dark Thirty were good enough for best picture but not director?

As a rule if the movie is up for Best picture but not director it won't win.

I'm pretty certain Lincoln is gonna win best picture.

Hollywood loves the Well done historical epic. Especially one with social aspects and messages.

The direction is one of the strongest aspects of Argo. The pace and tension are outstanding. But I wasn't impressed by Afleck's performance. It was fine; serviceable. But nothing extremely award worthy about it, in my opinion.

So glad Beasts of the Southern Wild is getting the love it deserves.

I totally see nominating Les Mis. It's a solid movie that breaks into transcendence at times. Hathaway, Seyfried, Barks, Redmayne, Jackman (though vocally strident) are all outstanding. Hooper's direction is beautiful as well.

After a second viewing of Les Miserables, I'm a bit more critical of Jackman's signing ability. Bring Him Home, while not nearly as cringe-inducing as anything Crowe did, was still pretty painful. That was the only part he really butchered, but it was Valjean's main song.

I think I mentioned that in the movie thread. The main problem is he sang it full voice instead of using his falsetto. That song is supposed to be a prayer, and it's written very delicately. He performed it with the subtlety of a chainsaw.

Exactly.

I thought Jackman's singing overall was pretty weak. Which surprised me. Because I know he can sing. His first song was great. And his last song was great. Everything else was wonky.

But the performance, otherwise, is solid.

He more or less butchered every song. I really like Hugh Jackman, but he just should not have been cast in that role. His acting is very good, but his singing is very bad.

I don't really require Colm Wilkinson, but he just . . . wasn't good.

I thought, conversely, that Anne Hathway was great. Her singing wasn't the best, but it was good enough, and her acting was very powerful.

Colm Wilkinson is really good, and he originated the role, of course. But this is my favorite Bring Him Home - Alfie Boe from the 25th anniversary. He's just stupidly talented.
