Oscar 2015

So, haben wir das wieder geschafft. Leider war ich zu müde, um mir die Verleihung selbst anzuschauen, aber das bisschen Musical-Geplänkel, besoffene Polen und Neil Patrick Harris in Unterhosen kann ich verkraften. Die Prämierungen an sich sind relativ überraschungslos verteilt, mit der (verdienten) Vorliebe für "Birdman" hatte ich tatsächlich nicht gerechnet, allerdings hätte ich Michael Keaton den Goldjungen wirklich gegönnt. Stattdessen muss man Kate Winslet in "Extras" abermals Recht geben: Behinderung der Oscar-Garant (Eddie Redmayne, Julianne Moore). Emmanuel Lubezki gewinnt seinen zweiten Oscar in Folge, der "Citizenfour"-Sieg hat mich wirklich überrascht, das "Princess Kaguya" nicht gewinnt war letztendlich irgendwie klar - immerhin bekam Hayao Miyazaki seinen Ehrenoscar. Alexandre Desplat gönne ich den Oscar ebenfalls vom ganzen Herzen, selbst wenn ich "Grand Budapest Hotel" bisher nicht durchgehalten und die Musik nicht gerade in bester Erinnerung habe. Wie dem auch sei: aufs nächste mal!

Ach Gottchen, heute sind ja Oscars. Und das zum 87. mal. Die Rassismus-Vorwürfen mal Außen vorgelassen, finde ich eine Prognose dieses Jahr schwierig. Sowohl interessante, wie zu erwartende Nominierungen finden sich, eindeutige Prämierung (wie etwa "Gravity") sehe ich nicht unbedingt. Aber um es kurz zu machen, hier sind meine Tipps.

Meine Prognosen markiere ich mit (X), wenn ich mir unsicher bin, werden Alternativ-Kandidaten mit (?) gekennzeichnet, in kursiv wie immer diejenigen, denen ich es tatsächlich gönne. Gewinner später in Gold, Fehltipps in Rot. Morgen haben wir Gewissheit. Hier übrigens die Razzies 2015.
