With the awarding of the 95th Academy Awards, the strings of our first fantasy game are also being pulled: the FantaOscar by CinecittàNews. We want to thank all our loyal readers for having decreed the success of this initiative with a truly extraordinary participation in terms of enthusiasm and skills put on the field.
The protagonist is naturally the film event of the year: that Everything Everywhere All at Once which with 7 awards out of 11 nominations entered the history of the Academy Awards and, consequently, of cinema. The round score of 305 points exceeds even the wildest expectations, inevitably compromising any chance of victory for those who have not had the foresight to bet on the Daniels’ film.
If the clamor of the winners is thunderous, in fact, so is the fall of the defeated, among which we find multi-candidate films such as The Spirits of the Island, The Fabelmans, Elvis And Tar, all came out miserably empty-handed from the competition, leaving anyone who believed in them with a bad taste in the mouth. No one would ever have thought that investing their fantasy tickets in a short film like Raghu, the little elephant would have brought more results than doing it on the latest masterpiece of one of the most important directors in the history of cinema such as Steven Spielberg.
Among the tops, they only save themselves Nothing new on the western front And The Whale, capable of bringing home statuettes and gold points for fantasy players. Not being mathematically possible the coupling – nightmare of the titlists – formed by EEAAO And NDNSFOit is clear that the highest scores will be those of those who placed solids next to the first 85 points of the film that resurrected Brendan Fraser’s career.
The purely cinematographic dynamic is joined by that of high fashion, in an edition characterized by a general elegance and sobriety, never taken for granted in such contexts. For our look-related bonuses, we relied on the expert judgment of “Vanity Fair“, who especially appreciated the rich casts of EEAAO and of Top Gunsand pop divas like Rihanna, Lady Gaga and Sofia Carson.
While waiting to announce who presented the best formation, go through the official scores that will allow you to know how much you have scored with your choices. Obviously the films not mentioned are to be considered zero rated, for everything else have the patience to consider that our assessments are subjective: disagreeing with the editors is part of the game. Among all we underline the choice to reward two moments in particular, both in some way “singing”: the happy birthday song dedicated by the audience of the Dolby Theater to the actor James Martin, suffering from Down syndrome; and the funny retelling of Top of the world by The Carpenters offered by Indian composers by Naatu Naatu.
