from the DGA Awards on Sat night:

Rob Reiner told the crowd he was taken aback when Scorsese had offered him a part in the film.

"I don't know what is more unbelievable -- that Leonardo DiCaprio is a Jew or that I'm his father," he joked.

for anyone who thought this was a bit short/lacked nudity

For anyone who thought this lacked Rob Reiner nudity

dont feel like reading all you ding dongs complain about this but it was awesome (though 25% too long), and anyone who complains about the continuity needs to go back to everything school. freakin travesty that schoonmaker didn't get an oscar nom for this. (and gravity did??)

I've been waiting for your review w bated breath

Explanation for Schoonmaker: the editors' branch has a better standard of what good cinema is.

btw 4-hour DVD version report has been debunked; your fellow WoWS fanboy Jeffrey Wells is livid.

freakin travesty that schoonmaker didn't get an oscar nom for this.

Yeah, seriously baffled by this.

i looooved the way she cut the scenes in this.

Did the best she could with lemons

doesn't even work as a metaphor

like the film

a real lemon party

morbs maybe you should just write a program that auto-posts "its bad a bad movie" after any post to this thread

I'm on record as liking it thru Big Mac's exit.

you know what was such a great scene was jonah hill's intro. what a great weird vibe he has in this flick.

Gravity isn't the sucky editing nomination in this field. Dallas Buyers Club is. Get your facts straight not gay, slock.

haven't seen it yet! but come on, how many edits does gravity even HAVE, its famous for being barely edited at all!

It has 156 edits.

correct me if i'm wrong but "editing" in this sense includes computer composition, yes? in which case, the whole movie is one long heavily edited sequence in the same way that an animated piece is. Actually after seeing gravity in imax, it occurred to me it was basically a FPS video game with way too many lengthy and badly written dragon age style asides so maybe it's better served in best full length animation

VFX are their own category, plus there are technical oscars for that stuff

still have to see this again at a decent theater

xp tell that to everyone voting on Best Cinematography for the last four years running.

Jonah Hill Prosthetic Penis in IMAX

Pretty soon they'll have to separate all the tech categories between CGI/non-CGI like they used to B&W/color.

s1ocks: so editing has to be about cutting film? i know there was loads of fx in gravity obvs, but the editing to get bullock and clooney's heads throughout seems pretty fucking complicated and artfully accomplished. just trying to get a clear sense of where they draw the line with this.

Academy members don't draw lines, they do 'em

xp not being snarky; i know you're a filmmaker so genuinely curious on insight here

It's a good point, really. I mean, credits on a film like "Finding Nemo" are just as long, if not longer, than credits on a live-action feature, right down to DP, lighting, et al. Just a different method to the medium. Something like "Iron Man 3," I wonder how much of that was actually real? Iirc there was something like 1000 FX guys in the credits scroll.

ya i would say that's more compositing. editing = montage. if you wanna call that editing, you might as well call... set design? editing? prop making?

"vfx editing" is its own category/job in post-production though.

so they accredit that stuff in tech oscars and keep it separate as far as the academy's concerned? and if so, how come it got a nod?

those ppl couldn't even tell makeup from CG in Benjamin Button

I'm guessing most tech Oscars probably don't go to the team members who actually most deserve them.

looking at the tech oscars web page, it seems like they are specifically given out for particular contributions, and they don't have set categories.

but there is a VFX category in teh "main" oscars. and presumably it goes to the head of the vfx team. (just as the cinematography award goes to the key person on the camera team, the DP).

definitely with situations like gravity, tho, what constitutes cinematography and what constitutes vfx is very blurry.

gravity getting a production design nom is another weird blurry line

xp Which is why it's going to sweep them all.

Avatar/Alice in Wonderland/Hugo all won production design. No going back there either.

yeah i mean... if the emphasis is on the DESIGN tho, who cares whether its built or not.

but then again you might as well hand the award to an animated film then. or give gollum teh best actor of all time award. and ruin everything.

ya sometimes feels like the award is for "most" prod design

Most scoring.
