#FilmSky now watching: Nickel Boys (2025), dir. RaMell Ross

Best Picture Nominee 8 of 10!

Oscars That Should Exist and Who I Would Nominate, Part 5!

Best Choreography

My final award is also my fav. Many have said the Oscars needs to add a Stunts category, and I agree! I think it should be broad and include dance, fights, chases, and blocking.

And the nominees are...

Best Young Actor

The Academy has recognized young actors in the past, primarily in the 1940s and I say we bring it back. Actors considered for this award would need to be under 18 during filming.

And the nominees are...

Best Voice Actor

I would have this category include fully animated roles as well as motion capture (like in Planet of the Apes/Avatar) or CGI (like Bradley Cooper as Rocket in the MCU).

Love this prompt! I’ve gotta do mine now…

She was electric in this. Not too many pop stars could hang with a full orchestra like that!
