John from Cincinnati Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 2 hours ago, Mister TV said: Notable cuts from the In Memoriam were Tom Sizemore, Paul Sorvino, Ann Heche, Gilbert Gottfried and Charlbi Dean who was in Best Picture nom Triangle of Sadness. It's pretty weak all five of them were left out. Was really surprised about them missing Sorvino, because one of the more affecting moments in an In Memoriam segment at one of the precursors (maybe the Globes?) was recognizing Liotta and him back to back with both sides of the "now I have to turn my back on you" scene from Goodfellas.

odessasteps Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 It’d be interesting to know how close to broadcast they have to lock the In Memorium video. And if someone VERY IMPORTANT (Spielberg, Hanks level) died right before the ceremony, that would be probably just end up being mentioned on the show anyway.

J.H. Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 I think the most galling thing about the "In Memoriam" segment was saving a former president of the academy for last. No casual viewer cares about that and they really should've ended it on James Caan and put the former somewhere in the middle. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted May 15, 2023 Author Share Posted May 15, 2023 The Tonys will not air on Television as the WGA denied the producers of the show a strike waiver that would have allowed the June 11 broadcast to take place Due to how much Broadway relies on the broadcast to push ticket sales of shows - an emergency meeting is being held today to decide what their next steps are (one of the options is delaying the show until the strike is over) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Is there any info on how the strike negotiations are proceeding? How long did the last one last, btw? I'm itching for my new Colbert -- these pricks need to give their pound of flesh to the writers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizium Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 The one in 2007 lasted 3-4 months, this one is expected to be longer. What little I see on Twitter suggests that it’s not going well. One report was that the stalled productions have already cost studios more money than the WGA is asking for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted June 22, 2023 Author Share Posted June 22, 2023 In a move clearly targeted at Indie movies and movies that are on Streaming services - the Academy has changed the rules for what movies are eligible to be nominated for Best Picture Old Rule Movie must have one-week theatrical release in one of the six qualifying U.S. cities (Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York City, Chicago, Miami, and Atlanta). New Rule Movie must have an “expanded theatrical run of seven days, consecutive or non-consecutive, in 10 of the top 50 U.S. markets, no later than 45 days after the initial release.” The Academy also announced that “for late-in-the-year films with expansions after January 10, distributors must submit release plans to the Academy for verification.” Their expanded theatrical run must be finished no later than January 24. Non-U.S. territory releases can count towards two of the 10 markets. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.H. Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I love Natasha Lyonne getting nominated for Poker Face I don't like Poker Face being passed in its category. I also don't understand why it got submitted for Outstanding Comedy. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds getting totally ignored is beyond baffling!

I thought the same thing about The Bear and White Lotus. Only conclusion I could come to is that they didn't want the Bear competing with BCS, Succession, and the Last of Us. And they didn't want White Lotus competing with the Bear. Beyond happy Ebon Moss-Bachrach got nominated. BTW, can someone explain (lol, no one can explain this) why Rhea Seahorn got nominated for best supporting actress and not best actress? She's the co-star of the fucking show and has nearly equal screen time as Bob Odenkirk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Also a little surprised Jamie Lee Curtis didn't get nominated for the Bear. Or Oliver Platt. The one category being only Succession or White Lotus actors is funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This keeps her out of the way of Sarah Snook or any other potential surprise there. Now watch them give it to Jennifer Coolidge again since everyone's been having so much fun with that. 2 minutes ago, Craig H said: Also a little surprised Jamie Lee Curtis didn't get nominated for the Bear. This is for the first season of The Bear, JLC isn't eligible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
