I'm psyched about JK Simmons the most, he's awesome in Whiplash and I hope he wins everything. Experts think he's a lock at this point!

I haven't seen Whiplash but I am excited for him. He's a well deserving character actor finally getting noticed. It will be unusual if he and Patricia Arquette win, since their current work is on television (he with that insurance, and she with CSI: Cyber) coming soon. Won't that be a first since Helen Hunt won the Oscar while still appearing on television at the same time?
I'm also happy Jakey Poo is still in the conversation. He deserves the nomination for pulling off such a creepy disturbing performance.

Golden Globe Noms out. Jen A snuck into best actress again. I'm still not convinced we'll hear her name come Oscar nominations but I guess this will propel her onwards with her crusade to get nominated.
Angie's Unbroken got completely overlooked so agsin no awards love there.
Thrilled that Jake G scored yet another nom for Nightcrawler. He's bern doing amazing work these last few years and I'm pleased to see him being recognized.

I'm kind of shocked that Emma Stone has been getting nominations, if any of the women from Birdman got nominated I think it should have been Naomi Watts (who for once didn't annoy me with all her actorly tics.)

I wonder if Dominic West will get a conciliatory GG for The Wire. Too bad Unbroken wasn't nominated. Billy Bob, Jen, Brad, Angie and Jon Voight in the same room? Toss in Goop and JLaw and that could be some serious camera fireworks.
oh and season 2 Mr. Selfridge blew Downton out of the water, but I suspect they aren't quite ready to accept Piven as a serious actah.

I love Mr Selfridge too! And I wonder why it doesn't get more love.
Downton hasn't been good since season 1. I stick with it because I'm invested, but jesus it's BAD.

I can't believe Everything is Awesome did not get a GG nom for best original song.
I really want to see Selma now. I wish they weren't waiting until January to release it. It seems like a good Christmas movie. And given the recent events in the US it would get a ton of press and attention right now.

I really want Christoph Waltz to get a Best Actor Oscar before Leo. Unlikely this year but it's still great to see him get a GG nomination.

Watched Still Alice last night, I think Julianne has the Oscar in the bag this year.
