If you know me, you know I don’t give a flying fuck about the Academy Awards. No need to soapbox here but we know it’s all bullshit. That said, for shits and grins _and_ because a few of the movies I really stand by, here’s a list of all the films nominated/represented beginning with the 8 films up for Best Picture. All short films are included. Ceremony on Feb 24, 2015. **Updated**
*it would neat if we could leave comments on each title to include what awards each film was nominated for i.e. BIRDMAN has 9 nominations; WILD is listed because Reese Witherspoon and Laura Dern were nominated, etc.
sleestakk has logged 27 out of 60 movies in 87th Academy Awards Nominees. Back to Lists Overview.
