UPDATED WITH LINK TO FINAL PREDICTIONS! What do you think of the 2012 Oscar Nominations? Time to Ask Movie Irv! Make sure to add your comments to Movie Irv Slifkin's take on the 84th Academy Award nominations, which included 11 nods for Martin Scorsese's Hugo and 10 for The Artist, which recently won the Producer's Guild prize (often a hint of what's to come). Watch the MovieFanFare podcasts! (http://bit.ly/bWsXjh) For more great movie content, visit http://MovieFanFare.com, the blog for movie collectors.

  • Best music for mauppets, i cant believe

  • @neycavalheiro Yes! Did they not deserve it? I (Irv's producer) have not caught up with the Muppet movie yet.

  • You didn't predict HUGO?!? That was already locked in since November. It got nommed for the Globes and nearly all the guilds.

  • @klausweasley I think Irv would have predicted Hugo had he seen it before we made his initial prediction video (which was, if I recall right, the 1st week of November or thereabouts). But hey -- he did get the other eight BP nominees spot on (predicting they'd only have eight nominees), so I think he deserves 99.9% credit, yes? Thanks 4 watching & writing in. :)

  • I really don't understand what's so special about Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.

    I tought they would take Drive than, or the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo as the last spot in the best picture category.

    And as a belgian i have to say: WHY do they not nominate tintin in the animation category? Cause of the cgi? than nominate him for best visual effects atleast?

    But i'm happy of course for nominating Bullhead :D. You have to go see that one!

    Thx for the video

  • @lolpeut Many Drive fans are no doubt pretty disappointed. The Tintin snub surprised me (Irv's producer) too. Haven't seen it yet--would you say it's true to the original comix? Thanks for watching & commenting & for the Bullhead recommendation :)

see all

  • @MoviesUnlimitedInc just checked the plots of the nominated docs, and I agree that Paradise Lost sounds the baitiest, but who knows, maybe they want to give Wenders one, Pina is the only one I've seen from the nominees and it wasn't bad, but imo not good enough to win, could also be a bit too atsy to hit the Academy's taste 100% we'll see

  • @MoviesUnlimitedInc Ye it's pretty much the same as the original comic books. :D
