I will take a guess at what you will do with 1928 Louis, I reckon you will not just do 1928 you will do the years before that in one lineup as well, like I reckon Lon Chaney and Max Schreck might appear =D.
Pre-1928 Lead Lineup Max Schreck in Nosferatu (I know you've given your rating & thoughts previously for his performance, but I would like to see a more in-depth analysis) Lon Chaney in The Phantom Of The Opera Charlie Chaplin in The Kid/The Gold Rush Buster Keaton in The General Albert Dieudonne in Napoleon Conrad Veidt in The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari
GDSAO & RatedRStar: What are your predictions for Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director and the Palme D'or at the Cannes Film Festival.
Mine are: Palme D'or: Youth (alt. The Lobster) Best Actor: Matthew McConaughey in The Sea Of Trees (alt. Michael Fassbender in Macbeth) Best Actress: Cate Blanchett in Carol (Alt. Marion Cotillard in Macbeth, although she has had a lot of bad luck when it comes to Cannes) Best Director: Justin Kurzel for Macbeth (Alt. Denis Villeneuve for Sicario)
Palme D'or: The Lobster Best Actor: Matthew McConaughey in The Sea Of Trees Best Actress: Cate Blanchett in Carol Best Director: Justin Kurzel for Macbeth
The Lobster is number 1 on some betting sites to win, but then again, Jason Watkins was like last of the four nominees to win in the betting and he still won so bah, Nesbitt should have won.
I imagine many GOT fans dont watch the Baftas and although I do like Sherlock, GOT is in a different league, although they have every right not to watch it after this years mostly shit winners, Marvellous was the only one I was happy went away with something.
My reaction to Jason Watkins beating Benedict Cumberbatch, James Nesbitt and Toby Jone was the same reaction James Mason had when he lost for The Verdict, utter confusion.
Jackiboyz: 2000: Aiden Gillen - Queer As Folk 2001: Michael Gambon - Longitude 2002: Michael Gambon - Perfect Strangers 2003: Incredibly Strong field, but my choice is James Nesbitt in Bloody Sunday. 2004: David Morissey - State Of Play 2005: Benedict Cumberbatch - Hawking 2006: Rufus Sewell - Taming Of The Shrew 2007: John Simm - Life On Mars 2008: Tied between Andrew Garfield in Boy A and Tom Hardy in Stuart: A Life Backwards 2009: Ben Whishaw - Criminal Justice 2010: John Hurt - An Englishman In New York 2011: Benedict Cumberbatch - Sherlock 2012: John Simm - Exile 2013: Ben Whishaw - The Hollow Crown 2014: Sean Harris - Southcliffe 2015: James Nesbitt - The Missing
I havent seen all of them, but I will choose the ones I did really like.
2000: Aiden Gillen - Queer As Folk 2001: Not seen any of them 2002 Not seen any of them 2003: Albert Finney - The Gathering Storm 2004: David Morrissey - State of Play (Bill Nighy was not lead) 2005: Mark Strong - The Long Firm 2006: Not seen any of them 2007: John Simm - Life Of Mars 2008: Tom Hardy - Stuart: A Life Backwards 2009: Ben Whishaw - Criminal Justice (great category) 2010: Brendan Gleeson in Into The Storm (Branagh and Hurt were also great) 2011: Benedict Cumberbatch - Sherlock 2012: John Simm - Exile 2013: Ben Whishaw - Richard II 2014: Sean Harris - Southcliffe 2015: James Nesbitt - The Missing
JackiBoyz & RatedRStar: I do hate it, when BAFTA can't recognise International talent in British Shows, with Frances O'Connor in The Missing being an example.
@Luke: It is really tricky because I love all of the main characters pretty much, and it would have to be a main cast member, I think I would have him as Theon Greyjoy/Reek, although I tnink Alfie Allen is very good.
I possibly could have said Doran Martell, but I think Louis is right with the comparisons between Siddig and Raul Julia, he really does remind me of him so I cant take him out =D.
@Luke: Ah okk, would you say Bloody Sunday is a tv film or a film, since it was at Sundance, looks like a film, but was nominated at the Bafta tv awards?
It was directed by Greengrass, reviewed by Roger Ebert as well, I mean, I am very tempted to suggest this Nesbitt for a winning request at somepoint (I am watching it on YouTube)
2000: Timothy Spall - Shooting the Past 2001: Michael Gambon - Longitude 2002: Michael Gambon - Perfect Strangers 2003: Kenneth Branagh - Conspiracy 2004: David Morissey - State Of Play 2005: Mark Strong - The Long Firm 2006: Haven't seen any of them 2007: Jim Broadbent - Longford 2008: Tom Hardy - Stuart: A Life Backwards 2009: Ben Whishaw - Criminal Justice 2010: John Hurt - An Englishman In New York 2011: Haven't seen any 2012: Joseph Gilgun - This is England 88 2013: Ben Whishaw - The Hollow Crown 2014: Sean Harris - Southcliffe 2015: James Nesbitt - The Missing
RatedRStar: It first premiered at Sundance, but was then shown on television, before being given a theatrical release so it qualifies as a TV Film in my book.
A very good episode and I have a feeling the last three if not the last five are going to be rather explosive. I felt every storyline worked here even my least favorite Daenerys. Although I hope the show won't keep trying to say she's this great inspirational figure anymore. She's not even qualified to run a taco bell. If a poor guy's cash register ran short she'd just say "burn him". Although I do think last episode's death was a bit shame. As for the others love the build up with Stannis here, particularly the little moment between Davos and Shireen. Not to be left in the dust the same can go for the Boltons who have finally been given their moment which is just as horrifying, while being very darkly comic, as usual. Not to forget, Allen and Turner were both great in the closest we've come so family reunion. To top it all off that final sequence with Tyrion and Jorah was superb.

Mine are:
Palme D'or: Youth (alt. The Lobster)
Best Actor: Matthew McConaughey in The Sea Of Trees (alt. Michael Fassbender in Macbeth)
Best Actress: Cate Blanchett in Carol (Alt. Marion Cotillard in Macbeth, although she has had a lot of bad luck when it comes to Cannes)
Best Director: Justin Kurzel for Macbeth (Alt. Denis Villeneuve for Sicario)

There is plenty for Bonus reviews too Louis =D.
How the hell did Jason Watkins win the Bafta for Best Actor?????, for an insanely mannered performance.
RatedRStar: It surely is a guarantee now that it's Tom Hardy's year for the second time in a row.
I was pretty disappointed that Nesbitt didn't win, as well as being a bit surprised by Sherlock's win over Game Of Thrones.
I think The Lobster will win the Palme D'or since it's the kind of film the Coen Brothers would undoubtedly champion.
RatedRStar: Also, Veidt is '28 instead of Pre-1928 by Louis's rules for The Man Who Laughs.
The Lobster is number 1 on some betting sites to win, but then again, Jason Watkins was like last of the four nominees to win in the betting and he still won so bah, Nesbitt should have won.
I imagine many GOT fans dont watch the Baftas and although I do like Sherlock, GOT is in a different league, although they have every right not to watch it after this years mostly shit winners, Marvellous was the only one I was happy went away with something.
Ah ok fair enough on Veidt.
My reaction to Jason Watkins beating Benedict Cumberbatch, James Nesbitt and Toby Jone was the same reaction James Mason had when he lost for The Verdict, utter confusion.
Jones...
@Luke and RatedRStar: Who would be your winner for Best Actor at the Bafta tv awards from 2000 to 2015?
@RatedRStar: How is Toby Jones in Marvellous, is he marvellous lol
@Luke: Same as RatedRStar for pre-1928, really.
Jackiboyz:
2000: Aiden Gillen - Queer As Folk
2001: Michael Gambon - Longitude
2002: Michael Gambon - Perfect Strangers

2007: John Simm - Life On Mars

JackiBoyz & RatedRStar: I do hate it, when BAFTA can't recognise International talent in British Shows, with Frances O'Connor in The Missing being an example.
@Luke: A lot of our choices are similar =D.
I have a wet dream, to see Ben Whishaw on Game Of Thrones =D.
RatedRStar: Which character from Game Of Thrones (Dead or Alive) Would you have Whishaw play. Or even, what character, would he be perfectly cast as.
@Luke: It is really tricky because I love all of the main characters pretty much, and it would have to be a main cast member, I think I would have him as Theon Greyjoy/Reek, although I tnink Alfie Allen is very good.
I possibly could have said Doran Martell, but I think Louis is right with the comparisons between Siddig and Raul Julia, he really does remind me of him so I cant take him out =D.
RatedRStar & JackiBoyz: My disappointment for Nesbitt will be nothing compared to Mark Rylance not winning the Bafta next year for Wolf Hall.
@Luke: You reckon he will get nominated for definite?
100 percent on Rotten Tomatoes for the new Mad Max, Louis what are your thoughts on that =D.
RatedRStar: If he doesn't, there's no fucking justice in the world.
=) 5 Star reviews from Empire and Total Film Magazine.
RatedRStar: I'm 90% certain on Rylance being nominated.
RatedRStar: Steamboat Bill Jr. is '28.
@Luke: Ah okk, would you say Bloody Sunday is a tv film or a film, since it was at Sundance, looks like a film, but was nominated at the Bafta tv awards?
It was directed by Greengrass, reviewed by Roger Ebert as well, I mean, I am very tempted to suggest this Nesbitt for a winning request at somepoint (I am watching it on YouTube)
Jackiboyz: For me,
2000: Timothy Spall - Shooting the Past
2001: Michael Gambon - Longitude

2013: Ben Whishaw - The Hollow Crown
2014: Sean Harris - Southcliffe
2015: James Nesbitt - The Missing
RatedRStar: It first premiered at Sundance, but was then shown on television, before being given a theatrical release so it qualifies as a TV Film in my book.
@Donald: But Aiden Gillen =( lol
RatedRStar: Don't forget about the TV Idea, that we conversed on a month ago.
Luke:

RatedRStar:
Well it appears the trailers have not been lying.
Yeah, Stannis is really interesting this season. I guess the writers got over their weird hatred for him from the previous seasons.
