Tatum is a good actor though brah
also Magic Mike XXL was one of the best movies of the year
>>64451887
But it was a movie
>>64451887
better than spotlight and the big short imo. this year is so weak in comparison to last year

Nope.

are you the kinda guy that think Fassbender is a good actor?
I bet you are

foxcatcher was the best american film last year
>>64452221

>>64452517
>Fassbender
What a strange projection.
>>64452443
he was good in this but absolute shit in the hateful eight. and he's a good comedic actor
>>64452538
Being "failed Oscar bait" doesn't mean it's actually a bad movie anon.
>>64452221
Magic Mike XXL was sick dude. I must've had 3 hot dogs while I watched it.
>>64452511
jesus American Hustle was a terrible movie. Somehow i don't think if it was republican accepting bribes through an illegal sting operation would they be portrayed as innocent victims.
>>64451887
>Implying Foxcatcher wasn't in the top 5 of 2014
>>64451887
Do you have a problem with meme movie?
>>64452601
it does, its an attack on its artistic merit
>>64452221
same here brah. was impressed with Tatum as well. Magic Mike XXL is movie of the year for me too, literally had to drag my girlfriend to see it again
>>64451887
Shoulda been a jaaaaaawn ceeeeeena doc
>>64451887
There are much better examples of failed Oscar Bait than this. >>64452511 Listed more than enough
>>64452864
This sounds like something an incredibly stupid person might say.
>>64452538
nah, it wasn't bad but they came so close to making great film and fell completely flat
I looked up the guy that the movie was based off, and it could have been a really amazing story if they got a Shakespearean actor to play him or something. Steve Carell looked and sounded like him but he really didn't capture his manipulative scariness that at all
Someone like Ralph Fiennes, Fassbender, or (sorry to trigger /tv/)Daniel Day Lewiswould have been perfect
The real guy was much more intimidating in real life and 10x more unsettling
>>64452965
This is the best answer here. I'm glad the academy didn't take the bait.
Except it was recognized by the Academy, 5 nominations
So it's not failed Oscar bait
"Selma" from this year or last year, whatever shitty year it was. WHite people be bad: the movie
Minions will win the 2015 best animated picture oscar.
>>64453200

I actually liked this film
>>64453356
why?
>>64452511
>>64452511
>failed Oscar Bait
>gets nominated for a dozen Oscar categories
Just because they don't win doesn't make them a failure.
>>64453356
white guilt movies are a form of repentance and self flagellation for the modern white liberal. its like a catholic asking for forgiveness for their sins.
>>64453447
Selma's not a white guilt film, you tit.
Unbroken, War Horse, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
Why win the Oscars anyway? They only ever vote for shit.
any movie made by black people about black people is bait
step aside shitters
>>64453487
sure thing. i've found liberals are a very poor judge of what is and isn't white guilt propaganda. its like trying to ascertain bias when you agree with it. its much harder than when you disagree with it.
This is the real "bait"
>>64453771
>>64453794
Does Elle Fanning play a trap in that?
>>64453794
>>64453611
>>64453672
>>64452965
It's so embarrassing when these fucking movies fail
>>64452965
But then shit like 12 years a slave hooked half the academy on a single line.
>>64453972
its hard to know when the academy will be affected by a white guilt black oppression movie. it seems to vary.

Why would Channing Tatum say that about his own movie?
>>64451887
It's good, but some people didn't like the dark material. It can't be oscar stuff. Besides Channing Tatum isn't a renowned actor.
>>64451887
I liked it to be quite honest
I still enjoyed it
Oscar bait doesn't mean bad. And even if something doesn't fall in the classic categories of what 'bait' is believed to be, just for having awards attention it will get called oscar bait by the bunch of clowns labeling idiotically everything.

Foxcatcher is a great film.
Whenever you wanna make an effort to learn what "Oscar bait" really is, watch Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.
>>64455473
I fucking hate Sean Penn so much. He might as well just be screaming "ACTING!!!!"
When I think of Oscar bait, I can't help but think of the Eurovision Song Contest.
The cycle always seems to go:
>song/movie wins the contest/best picture
>a bunch of knockoffs get made in hopes for same success
>nothing happens to them, except for mostly groans
People don't seem to understand what FAILED oscar bait is.
anything clint eastwood does these days
>>64452511
>>64453079
How are those failed Oscar bait movies though? Failed Oscar bait is a movie that was clearly designed to garner awards and prestige but ultimately doesn't get nominated for any important ones. Unbroken would be a good example from last year.
>>64452492
I saw that movie where he was an abusive stepdad and I just couldn't take it seriously at all because I kept expecting him to make a silly face and mug for the camera after every horrible thing he did
>>64455320
But that was actually good, anon.
Let's face it. /tv/ doesn't like this movie simply because Leonardo starred in it.
>>64455499
It was pretty good though.
>>64455059
I only remember this movie because R.E.M. wrote their best song specifically for the soundtrack.
>>64455697
Another amazing bad trailer:

Tropic Thunder probably got a much better reception than it really deserved, but it did get one theory right. Never go full retarded.
>>64455714
yup. people like leo so /tv/ has to hate him

James Franco must not have gotten the memo.

>>64455320
seriously senpai, the bear should get an oscar for the rape scene alone
>>64455948
I genuinely thought that was satire the first few times i seen it.
It's almost a direct rip of Simple Jack from that same movie, Tropic Thunder.
>>64452561
>LOL IT HAS A STRIPPERS PLOT! I CAN'T WATCH THAT OR PEOPLE WILL THINK I'M GAY!
It's actually about druglords, moron.
>>64455948

>>64456129
This wasn't failed Oscar bait. Both Mickey Rourke and Marisa Tomei were nominated for best actor/actress.
>>64451887
Literally no one remembers that Peter Jackson made this.
>>64456129
that movie is legitimately good, and definitely not oscar bait

Also, none of them could have done as good a performance as Rourke

>I had to drag my boyfriend to see it
>>64451887
Whats wrong with the word Oscar bait?
Is it because the movie has actual standards and exists not just to entertain?
It sounds just like Jail bait which isnt an insult to the girl. It means that shes pretty for her age
>>64456596
I don't think you got the joke mate.
>>64456524
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
*gasp*
AAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Seriously, how was Unbroken ever going to merit an Oscar? The only reason Jolie got to do that movie was as a favor to Brad. That girl is a joke.
>>64456596
I would've picked Mick Foley but he is probably the only 90's era wrestler out there who managed to have a good personal life. Honorable mention would be HBK but he turned his life around after finding Jesus.

Failed Oscar bait doesn't mean a movie that got nominated for multiple awards but didn't win.
Failed Oscar bait is a movie that was clearly designed to garner prestige during awards season but doesn't get nominated for anything major.

The only Academy Award noms it got were best cinematography, best sound editing and best sound mixing and won none.
>>64455948

Yes it is. It failed to get nominated for any of the major categories which is obviously what it was going for. That's a textbook example of failed Oscar bait.

Say what you will about 12 years a slave, it was subtle and a decent acted and scripted white guilt movie. The Butler was literally white guilt on a stick with nothing else.
>>64455499

no shit
Boyhood easily. So clearly wanted an award but just couldn't get anyone to give enough of a fuck
>>64458951
it took twelve years to make
>>64453256
No way Anomalisa will win. I haven't seen it or Inside Out yet, but I already know that there's no way the academy members will choose anything other than Pixar in the animation catagory. The ones who vote in that catagory just don't give a fuck and just choose whatever their children is watching.
>>64451887
But it wasn't Oscar bait or a failure? Every performance in that movie was fantastic. Carrell was just as deserving of the Oscar as Keaton was. Although I thought it was a shame Ruffalo was nominated over Tatum.

Man, the male body is the real work of art, women just have breasts and butt, men have pecs, butt, abs, biceps, triceps, back, round full shoulders, plus facial hair. A woman's arm for example is plain and has no shapes or curves to it, a man's arm is full of muscles and curves, and the same goes for the back and stomach. Men are way hotter than women

Did anyone else actually read this book? I takes place in a backwoods appalachian shithole where everyone is dirty and ignorant. This film is visually designed like a goddamn southern gothic opera. Also the main character isnt a shambling retard, more of a creep like a grown up kid from Gummo.
