Title: Nominate! - 2015 Xixax Awards
Post by: Jeremy Blackman on March 19, 2015, 12:46:21 PM
The Basics

This will be our second year using the new simplified process:


So let's get started!

Post your nominations here, in any format or quantity you'd like. Doesn't matter. This is an informal process. You don't even need to read the rest of this post. Make several posts if you want to; post what you can think of now, and come back for more later.


Further Guidance

Is there an underrated film you're especially passionate about, or an incredible performance that no one is discussing? We're especially interested in those unusual choices to fill out categories.

If there's something you'd like to nominate that's embarrassing or shameful, PM me (http://xixax.com/index.php?action=pm;sa=send;u=21).

These are the categories. Obviously, suggest nominations for whatever you want. One, two, or all of them. If you're not sure which category a performance belongs in, don't worry about it.


Best Film
Best Director
Best Female Performance
Best Male Performance
Best Supporting Female Performance
Best Supporting Male Performance
Best Screenplay
Best Cinematography
Best Original Music
Best Visual Effects
Best Debut Film
Best Documentary
Best Animated Feature
Best Trailer
Best Film Poster
Best TV Show
Most Disappointing Film New name! New attitude!

If you're not sure whether something is from 2014, consult this list (http://www.oscars.org/sites/default/files/2014_reminder_list.pdf).

BONUS! If you have an idea for a fun category, post that here too, preferably with a couple nominations. If it's good, we may use it.

Some examples from the shoutbox:

I know not many people here have seen it, but I want to draw some attention to Evelyne Brochu (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2903342/)'s supporting performance in Tom at the Farm (http://xixax.com/index.php?topic=12762.0). Think we'll be hearing a lot about this actress in the future.




The movie hasn't been released in the US yet...but was distributed almost everywhere else last year. Does this even count?

Some examples from the shoutbox:

jenkins<3: Best Real Life Story That Made A Great Movie

so that's my idea and i like it. could be called Most Beneficial Movie to Efforts of Humanitarianism. that's a bit like us making fun of the oscars in a cinephilic way, which is the undisputed best way to make fun of the oscars

these would be the nominees:

Selma
Mr. Turner
Noah
Foxcatcher
Theory of Everything
The Imitation Game
American Sniper
Unbroken
Wild
Big Eyes

i'm basically "whatever, WHAT, EVER" about these movies in general, but there are good ones, and i think such an award might stir up conversations. like look at that, i included noah, we could chat that up. and if we select the best from the worst, the worst doesn't look so bad at all

i've previously mentioned my nominee for this category:

Best Supporting Male Performance

is

Jude Swanberg in Happy Christmas, who is imo the most interesting character in that movie. i admire his dad for bringing to life the character of his toddler, and we all know that actors desire to achieve the blissful perspective of a child, which is why children themselves tend not to be nominated for awards, but let's be 2015 and everything and admit this child had terrific vibes and personality scene-for-scene in happy christmas, and which nomination will secure our perspective for next year, when we can nominate pete in pete's dragon like goddamn responsible xixax people

I really slacked off last year, but dug the Whitey Bulger doc. Same director of Paradise Lost, but it kind of left me underwhelmed with all the dry courtroom stuff.

Citizenfour was great, but we can be more creative than electing that, right?

Also need to see 'Happy Valley' and 'Life Itself'

I'm in agreement with Reelist that Ruffalo is the frontrunner for Best Supporting Actor. Also consider Jack Kilmer's debut in Palo Alto

I just aggregated the votes, and we actually have an unusually great variety of nominees overall. We'll start to make some decisions now.


However, we need more nominations for these categories:

Documentary
Animated Feature
Trailer
Film Poster


These are less dire, but we could use a few more:

Visual Effects
Debut Film
Best Film of 2013 Redux

Life Itself was good, I'm going to toss out a vote for it seeing as The Overnighters doesn't have a shot in hell

Could also use more "Most Disappointing Film" nominations. Or reiterate your passionate disappointment for something you already nominated.

I think The Grand Budapest will win, but Nightcrawler gets my vote as the most visually intriguing. Judging from what most people have said, the movie does not live up to the poster
