People are looking forward to the arrival of the 78th Oscars like never before. Since the 70th Oscars in 1998, it has been a long time since the beginning of the Academy Awards ceremony.

There are two reasons for expecting an award ceremony like the Oscars. The first is whether the nominated movie is eye-catching. In the past ten years, the two Oscars with the highest ratings are "Titanic" and "Titanic". "The Lord of the Rings 3" has achieved two sweeps, proving that the combination of business and art is the magic weapon for the academy to attract audiences; the second is whether it is intentional. With the recommendation of time, not only the Oscars, but all award ceremonies are gradually declining. In order to divide the cake, there are no surprises, no bright spots and no creativity, which also makes the award ceremony a tasteless and unfortunate taste

Whether it is the Oscars or other awards ceremonies, to attract the attention of the audience - after all, the audience is the basis for the survival of the film and music industries - then the above two points are the inevitable focus of the Grammy ratings since entering the 21st century. The highest one is the 45th Awards Ceremony. At that ceremony, Evan Bell was reborn after a slander incident. With the high quality of the album "Two", it swept the Grammys, crazy.

This year is the 78th Academy Awards ceremony. Since the announcement of the nomination list on January 31, the entire February has attracted the unanimous attention of the media, audiences, and TV programs, causing such a large-scale chain effect. As a result of the influence of various aspects, the first and most important thing is that the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has changed its place. The chairman of the first session, Sid Ganis, is a representative of the faction forces. Can he bring the whole atmosphere to the Oscars? A topic that everyone cares about; secondly, from the nomination list, the competition of "Brokeback Mountain", "Little Miss Sunshine", "Good Night and Good Luck", "Capote" and other works collided with amazing sparks

"Brokeback Mountain" has already crossed the 100 million mark at the cumulative box office in North America at this time. For the Oscars, it can already be classified as a "commercial" movie. Among the five works nominated for the best picture, it is impressively The highest-grossing work, coupled with the gay-themed works, the grudge between Evan Bell and the media, and the film's persistent resistance from conservative groups, these topics make "Brokeback Mountain" concentrated. What's more, on the list of nominations, "Brokeback Mountain" leads with nine nominations, which also makes people wonder how much the Oscars are determined to reform today, and will it become Oscar history?

Compared with the violent collision of "Brokeback Mountain", "Little Sunshine Beauty" started to exert force at the end of the awards season, and now she has come to the Oscars with infinite scenery, and the box office of 100 million US dollars is not inferior. In "Brokeback Mountain", there is still hope that the movie will fight against mainstream movies - although "Brokeback Mountain" is also a movie, but in the core idea, it is not as popular as "Little Sunshine". The five nominations of "Beauty" are also considered to be a kind of determination to reform, Oscar's determination to vigorously support ** movies

In addition, high-profile works such as "Good Night and Good Luck", "Capote", "Munich", "Forever Forward", and "Memoirs of a Geisha" are still detonating countless topics. Ji Du is in a fight with "Brokenback Mountain" in "Good Night, Good Luck". This work written, directed and acted by George Clooney has become a destined opponent with "Brokeback Mountain" since its premiere in Venice. , if it weren't for the "Little Sunshine Beauty" who came out halfway, it is estimated that the current situation of "good night and good luck" will become clearer

When the awards season comes every year, regardless of whether the audience pays attention, the media's attention is inevitable, because this is their job. At the beginning of the awards season, everyone cares about the seeded players on the nomination list. After the nominations are made, everyone guesses the final winner. Who will be the winner and Oscar, from the perspective of business, influence, attention, authority, etc., is currently the most watched awards ceremony in the world. Naturally, it has attracted countless media attention. Not to mention, this year's Oscar seems to be full of suspense , which also made February's media coverage of Oscar winners more lively than ever

According to incomplete statistics, a total of 80 media have made predictions on the list of Oscar winners this time, and this number has also created the highest number in ten years. From one side, we can see the attention of the 78th Oscars.

In the prediction of the best film, "Brokeback Mountain", which was swept in the early stage of the award season in the messy media wind, won a 40% approval rate. Professional critics agreed that this work is Ang Lee's masterpiece. It condenses the culture and influence of the whole society into a love story, which reflects not only a love, but also the influence of the entire American society and culture on ideology, mainstream and niche, and other aspects. It has become the most important **** film in film history, and none of its supporters believe that the Oscar's award for "Brokeback Mountain" is not only an affirmation of a movie, but a cultural affirmation

The "Little Sunshine Beauty" who made efforts at the end of the awards season came to the top and achieved the opposite. With a support rate of 45 percentage points, she became the top seed player before the Oscars. The mainstream comments believe that Evan Bell is a kind of The way of personality tells a mainstream story, and its political correctness will not be compromised by the unruly content. On the contrary, this kind of personality makes this movie and it also sounded the alarm for the entire mainstream society, including the academic school. At the same time, the judges' support for "Little Sunshine Beauty" not only rewarded Eleven Studio and Evan Bell, making up for the regret of pressing "Brokeback Mountain", but also avoided mainstream culture's affirmation of homosexuality. This will become the biggest bargaining chip for the academic judges to tilt towards "Little Sunshine"

Unexpectedly, "Munich" passed "Good Night, Good Luck" and became the third candidate. The jerky, esoteric, and difficult nature of "Good Night, Good Luck" hindered the possibility of further recognition of this film. On the contrary, "Munich", under the direction of Steven Spielberg, is much more approachable. Unfortunately, the political issues reflected in "Munich" have become unconvincing after the sudden change in the political situation in Palestine at the end of the year. Still, "Munich" won by ten percentage points

The remaining five percentage points are all uncertainties. It can be said that this year's Oscars are full of countless uncertainties. No one can assert that the direction of the Oscars will be this way because according to the general trend of the awards season, "Brokeback Mountain" Sweeping seems to be a matter of course, but because of its homosexual theme, it makes everything confusing. Is "Brokenback Mountain" making history by taking advantage of the trend, or "Little Sunshine" reversing and creating history, or the other three Break out of the siege, this is really very exciting

Compared to the chaos of the best picture, Ang Lee is the best director in the prediction, gaining an overwhelming lead with over 80% approval rate. Unlike the best picture, which is endowed with too much politics Sex, society and culture, the best director is much simpler, just a reward for the director's ability

Among the competitors, Evan Bell won the nomination for the second year in a row, but "Little Sunshine Beauty" did not have a profound grasp of the theme of last year's "Mysterious Skin", not to mention that Evan Bell was only 23 years old. Years old, the academics obviously think that he still has a lot of time in the future, and he will fall behind in competitiveness; Bennett Miller relied on "Capote" to win the nomination for the first time, not to mention his qualifications, and his age. Pie, and the film itself is slightly less competitive, so it is not optimistic; as for Steven Spielberg, he scored twice with "Saving Private Ryan" seven years ago, this time "Munich" because The sensitive Palestine issue, in the case of the collapse of the Palestinian regime at the end of the year, has quickly cooled the media, and the opportunity for the third coronation does not seem to come.

Looking at it this way, Ang Lee's biggest opponent is George Clooney instead. The chips that he wrote, directed and acted have always been Oscar's ten-minute line. "Good night, good luck" and "Syriana" brought George Clooney. At the peak of his career, George Clooney is also likely to be one step ahead of Evan Bell, standing on the actor's background to win Oscar recognition for his directorial work

In addition to thisBest Actor, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Actress... The media are sparing no effort in discussing these awards.

Different from previous years, the results of the previous outposts will be the biggest bargaining chip for the media to predict the Oscars, but this year it is because of the sensitive issue of "Brokeback Mountain", as well as the political issues of "Good Night, Good Luck" and "Munich". It's tricky, the call for "going forward" overlaps with last year's "King of Soul Singers" and is also in a sensitive position, which makes the results of the outpost battle uncountable, because whether the academics who have changed dynasties have the determination to reform, this determination How powerful is it, whether it is strong enough to complete the revolution at once, or whether the change is not in place and finally becomes another form of share cake... This makes the prediction unstable, even "Li, who won the most support in the prediction," Ann won best director", it's not necessarily a certainty

So, everyone is looking forward to it, waiting for the Oscar to pull the curtain, looking forward to a result, to see whether Oscar will create a new era, continue the old path of the past, or turn into a bad mess

In the sight of this anticipation, the seventy-eighth Oscars kicked off on March 5th at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles.
