After the nomination list of the 86th Academy Awards was officially announced, the surging of individual award departments has triggered numerous discussions. Among them, the four consecutive years of lanli Hall's competition for movie king is undoubtedly the focus, which also means that this year's award ceremony is bound to be full of suspense.

If we look at the whole list of award winners in terms of works, the fierce competition of bayonet becomes more and more obvious.

"Gravity", "American scam" and "twelve years of slavery", which ranked first in the whole award season, are still the most popular, winning 11, 10 and 9 nominations respectively, leading the list of Oscar nominations.

The biggest surprise is the counter attack of gravity. Since its debut at the Venice Film Festival, this work has received numerous praises and has become the biggest blockbuster in the award season. However, due to the mistakes of Warner Brothers' publicity strategy, the momentum after entering the award season has never been able to seize the advantage. Instead, it has been defeated by "American scam" and "twelve years of slavery", and the overall momentum has always been in the position of hard pursuit.

Until now.

Entering the second stage of the award season, "gravity" has developed its advantages in the technology department, and has become the leader in the nomination stage, leaving behind the two competitors who have not too many technical characteristics, namely "twelve years of slavery" and "American scam", which shows the elegant demeanor of the number one seed, and indicates that there will be more variables in the public relations pattern of the college in the future.

Best film, best director, best actor, best supporting actress, best film editing, best photography, best original score, best visual effect, best sound editing, best sound effect, best art guidance.

The technology level is so far ahead that "gravity" can hardly find any competitors in the whole award season this year, which makes them have the advantage in the Oscar nomination stage and easily complete the anti surpassing of competitors, reaching the height of "Lord of the rings 3" or "Avatar" at one stroke.

Gravity is the fifth film ever nominated by seven technology departments. The previous four films were Titanic in 1997, angry sea battle in 2002, Hugo in 2011 and fantasy rafting in 2012.

However, the fatal weakness of gravity is obvious: the absence of the script department.

The original commercial script does not have much commendable structure and content at all. Even the lines and characters are slightly rough. It relies entirely on the lens and performance to support the whole film. It is definitely a work suitable for the cinema to feel the visual and auditory shock, but the content of the script is still relatively thin, Those reflective kernels are all accomplished through picture composition.

It's also reminiscent of "Avatar.". At the beginning, "Avatar" also stood out in the technical department, but the lack of the performance department and script Department became a short board that can not be ignored. Finally, on the Oscar ceremony, the film lost to the "bomb disposal force" which was more simple and tough in technology and took the lead in connotation and ideology.

Does this also indicate the prospect of "gravity" in the award ceremony?

By the way, this year's nomination list for the script department is also quite interesting.

Original script, "blue Jasmine", "Dallas buyers club", "she", "Nebraska", "American hoax". In addition to Woody Allen's "blue Jasmine", all the other four films were nominated for best picture.

Adapted script: "twelve years as a slave", "Philomena", "wolf of Wall Street", "drunken folk", "love before midnight". In addition to "love before midnight," the other four films all made the best picture nominations.

In other words, only gravity and Captain Phillips have lost the nominations of the script department among the ten best picture candidates. Does this mean that the competition among the script departments will be particularly fierce? In fact, there is a slight discrepancy, but in the nomination list of American Writers Union awards, it is a different situation.

In the original script department, four of the five nominating seats remain the same. The only difference is that "gravity" has replaced the position of "Dallas buyer's Club" - although the script of "gravity" is not the most brilliant part, the American Writers Union has boldly and actively affirmed it, The Dallas buyers club, which has been struggling for the whole award season, has been ignored.

In the adaptation department, only "love before midnight" remained the same. The other four seats belonged to "August: Orange County", "lonely Survivor", "Captain Phillips" and "behind the candlestick". The final winner was "Captain Phillips". As a result, above the Oscar, all four seats were directly overthrown, This is absolutely a rare scene in history.

From the nomination of American Writers Union award to the nomination of Oscar, ten seats have changed dramatically, which makes the second stage of college public relations full of many variables. "Fierce" is not the most appropriate adjective, but suspense is certain.

In terms of treatment in the script department, from the American Writers Union award to the nomination seat of the Oscar, "gravity" and "drunken folk" have just changed places. Therefore, the prospect of "gravity" Oscar has also been cast a shadow.

But... Eleven nominations won't lie. "Gravity" is the absolute leader of the Oscar nomination list. It's really a time of accumulation.

Behind "gravity" is "American deception", a comedy style serious theme work, which continues David o-russell's consistent demeanor in the eyes of the academic school and gains numerous praise again; The biggest surprise is no different from that of the acting department. "American hoax" has successfully won the nominations of the four major acting departments, and successfully copied the feats of "TV storm", "streetcar desire", "beacon fire" and "spiritual desire for spring night" - this is the 15th such brilliant work in history.

It is worth mentioning that David o-russell has won such honors for two consecutive years. Last year's "happiness line behind the dark clouds" and this year's "American scam" won seven nominations for best film, best director, best actor, best actress, best supporting actor, best supporting actress and best adapted screenplay.

Everyone is marveling that Langley has created miracles many times. In fact, David o-russell is the real Oscar favorite.

This year, too.

Best picture, best director, best actor, best heroine, best supporting actor, best supporting actress, best adapted script, best film editing, best costume design, best art direction, a total of 10 nominations, closely following the "gravity", has become the most powerful contender for this year's major Oscar Awards.

What's more, David o-russell is good at light comedy. How much Oscar doesn't like comedy works, just look at Charlie Chaplin and Kim Carey. But now David has become the Oscar winner with light comedy for two consecutive years, which is far more than the unique treatment of Langley.

Obviously, the opportunity of this year's "American scam" is even more fierce than last year's "happiness line behind the dark clouds". No one can easily underestimate this work.

Then there is "twelve years of slavery". The black film's rising momentum in the award season can be described as unstoppable. Even though it was slightly inferior in the Oscar nomination stage, it still remained in the first echelon with nine nominations.

Best film, best director, best actor, best supporting actor, best supporting actress, best adapted script, best film editing, best costume design, best art direction, a total of nine nominations.

A close observation shows that the difference between "twelve years as a slave" and "American scam" is only the best heroine, which means that the two works will fight head-on in nine departments, and the intensity of the two works can be described as the popularity of bayonets; The technology sector's "gravity" is expected to reap the benefits.

"Gravity", "twelve years of slavery" and "American scam" are all close to each other in overall momentum. In the main awards, only the script department is misplaced, and all three works have been shortlisted for the best film editing competition. No wonder the major news media think that this year is a "three power war for hegemony".

The best film editing award, known as the "little best film", has five nominations. In addition to the top three, the other two seats belong to the "Dallas buyer's Club" and "Captain Phillips". The number of nominations for these two works has also ushered in a bumper harvest, with both winning six nominations, closely behind the top three.

In addition, the best director's remaining two nominations, "Nebraska" and "Wall Street wolf", won five nominations and four nominations respectively, and all of them came from major awards, which also retained their vitality for the best film.

"Drunken folk" also received six nominations, including best film, best supporting actress, best photography, best adapted script, best sound effect and best original song.

Among them, "the death of Queen Jane" is a song jointly composed by lenley and the Cohen brothers, which has successfully won the nomination for best original song. It is also the first time in lenley's career that he has won the nomination for music related awards above the Oscar. Not surprisingly, lanli will perform the song on the night of the award ceremony.

Six nominations, which is slightly lower than people's expectation of "drunken folk", is only slightly higher than "Nebraska", but the importance of awards is far behind, which is hard to avoid; But this is the taste of the college. It's a big surprise to win five nominations in the end. We can't ask for more.

In addition, "she" also received five nominations, which is quite similar to the overall situation of "drunken folk songs"“ "Philomena" received four nominations, and Weinstein pictures was in a slump in this year's award season; In addition, "blue Jasmine" has received two nominations, but it is the best actress and best original script. This is also Woody Allen's 16th best original script nomination, creating the history of Oscar.

Of course, with "August: Orange County", Meryl Streep has won her 18th Academy Award nomination, 12 times ahead of Jack Nicholson and Katherine Hepburn, constantly breaking her own record.

This is the overall pattern of this year's Oscars, and the second stage of college public relations is on the verge of breaking out.
