Revenge Of The Sith's Oscar Chances

I think that Lucas will never win an oscar because he is not in any of the guilds!!

I was thinking about this as well, just the other day.

Maybe this is why the academy hasn't been real appreciative of the Star Wars films.

I think the film could have a shot at VFX, but I doubt it'll win, NOT because it's bad, but because of politics.
Lucas trouble with and farewell to Hollywood after the original film is the reason I believe.

But there are more important things then oscars anyway.

I think they have a great chance for costume designs, musical score for John Williams, sfx, and maybe an supporting actor for Ian McDiarmid.

I think the previous Oscar discussion was much better....

Search is your friend.

Your talking about the Visual effects discussion this one cover's more than that one at least. I posted in that one I like this one better.

at the highest star wars may get bread crumbs. Look what type of movies hollywood nominates for oscors, not the star wars types

I agree with Texansfan, this thread has a lot more to talk aboutgossip

POSSIBILITIES (not definites, don't start bashing already)

Best Actor - Ewan McGregor
Best Supporting Actor - Ian McDiarmid
Best Visual Effects
Best Sound
Best Sound Editing
Best Original Score
Best Original Screenplay
Best Editing
Best Director
Best Picture

Now, the chances of the first one and the last three are very slim, but there is still a possibility, seeing as this is the last one, and the academy does like to wait until the last of things to give everything out. Ian McDiarmid does have a pretty good shot, as does all the technical awards. I wouldn't be surprised if ROTS didn't even receive any nominations, but its not a complete 100% no right now.

Have Sci-Fi movies ever had a chance? Has one ever one?

your living in a fantasy world if you think Sith will get top honors of anything for oscars

I think it could win all those mentioned possibly, with the exception of "original score". That's a definate no. Scores of sequels, with relatively the same music, don't really seem to win, and rightly so as it is original score, and as episode 3 will have some new stuff, but a lot of recycled stuff as well...

As for these:

"Best Actor - Ewan McGregor
Best Supporting Actor - Ian McDiarmid
Best Visual Effects
Best Sound
Best Sound Editing
Best Original Score
Best Original Screenplay
Best Editing
Best Director
Best Picture"

Best actor, supporting actor, original score, original screenplay, best editing, best director, and best picture....it'll never even be nominated in these categories, or win. Best Pic, not a chance, same goes for best director and editing. Original screenplay, highly, highly doubtful. Best actor for Ewan a definite no. And POSSIBLY, but doubtful as well, Ian McDiarmid for supporting actor altho that would be cool.

my list is short:

Best Supporting Actor - Ian McDiarmid
Best Visual Effects
Best Sound
Best Sound Editing
Best Original Score
Best Original Screenplay
Best Editing
Best Picture

simply put thoughs are My nominations

Best Supporting Actor - Ian McDiarmid
Best Visual Effects
Best Original Score

Realistically I'd stick with these three options. The sound is bound to be screwy in some parts, editing will be a little dodgy as well. No chance for best original screenplay cause that would imply 'good dialogue'

I hope Ian gets nominated. He is one of my favorite actors and I hear he is going to be just great.

I hope it gets nominated for visual effects too and possibly sound as well.

Pray for Ian, we must. Ask for his victory, i will for christmas.MMMmmmm🎅

Yup. I'll ask for it for my B-day, since Christmas is so far away.

Usually when someone gets all ugly in a movie they win an oscar, so Ian has a very good chance.

Haha, no, its when someone "cries". Get it right..... 😛

Ya i like his chances
