Five 2012 Blockbusters Awaiting Oscar Gold
After the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences expanded its Best Picture list beyond five nominees, the door opened for big-budget Hollywood blockbusters to score a prestigious Best Picture nomination. As I wrote last year, it was likely that the Academy broadened the Best Picture shortlist after Christopher Nolans opus, The Dark Knight, was cruelly snubbed in 2009. Since then, Avatar and Nolans own Inception have managed to score Best Pic nods. This year, all eyes were on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, since the film was the final in a critically acclaimed series that had never achieved the nomination before. Unfortunately, it was not to be, as the film only earned technical nods and ultimately walked away from last night's Oscars completely empty-handed. However, 2012s line-up of big budget popcorn fare looks like it might once again yield some love from the Oscars. Which of this years blockbusters might possibly score an Oscar Best Picture nod next year? Check out five possible contenders after the jump! "The Dark Knight Rises" To say that expectations are high in the third and final film of Christopher Nolans much beloved Batman trilogy is like saying that Lady Gaga has an interesting fashion sense. After all, like weve said, it was the snub of critically and publically acclaimed The Dark Knight that likely triggered the Oscars committee to expand the Best Picture list. Were gonna sound like fanboys, but we dont really have any doubt that The Dark Knight Rises will be epic. So, the stage is set for a The Dark Knight Rises Best Picture nod. "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" In any other year, we would be confident in saying that The Dark Knight Rises would take that one blockbuster nominee spot. But, in 2012, we have Peter Jacksons return to Middle Earth after Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, which only won all 11 (!) Oscars, including Best Picture, that it was nominated for. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is the first of a planned two-parter, so its likelier that The Hobbit: There and Back Again will score a nod. Still, the Academy clearly loves Middle Earth and the teaser trailer looks reassuringly familiar, so dont count out this powerhouse. "Prometheus" Speaking of impressive pedigree, Prometheus definitely is no slouch in this department. The film was conceived as a prequel to the iconic 1979 film, Alien, and has been hyped as a return to form for director Ridley Scott. That its a sci-fi-horror genre film (Oscar voters typically dont go for that sort of thing) will hold back its Oscar chances, but if Scott and his acclaimed cast of Charlize Theron, Noomi Rapace and Michael Fassbender do bring their A-game (the evocative teaser trailer looks promising), then we wouldnt be surprised if the film manages to scare its way to a nomination. "The Avengers" Combine Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and an assortment of other Marvel superheroes together with "Buffy" and "Firefly" creator Joss Whedon and what do you get? A geeks dream come true, of course, but also the possibility of a truly amazing Marvel comics movie. Typically, Marvel films are fun, enjoyable summer fare that are forgotten come awards season, but with Whedon having written and directed The Avengers, were crossing our fingers that he has created something special that perhaps Oscar voters will take to as well. "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II" Its fair to say that the Twilight series is not the most loved movie franchise amongst critics, especially when you compare it contemporaries like Harry Potter. Still, given that "Breaking Dawn Part II" is the final film of the series, were expecting that director Bill Condon and stars Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner will up their game and perhaps surprise everyone with a great film. Which 2012 big-budget blockbuster do you think will score a Best Picture Oscar nomination? Tell us what you think in the comments section and on Twitter!

'A Separation' is first Iranian Oscar-winner
Asghar Farhadis A Separation is the first Iranian film to win a foreign-language Oscar.
Asghar Farhadi's family drama "A Separation" rolled through awards season with a string of prizes in the midst of highly tense relations between the United States and Iran. "A Separation" won the Golden Globe for foreign film, the Independent Spirit award for international film, and is the first Iranian film to win the foreign-language Oscar. Farhadi, speaking in both English and Farsi, paid tribute to the people of Iran who respect other cultures and reject the language of violence. Sandra Bullock made the presentation after speaking in German and saying that nominated films "speak to the common humanity in all of us." The Farsi-language pic, centered on a family's struggle to communicate while undergoing domestic crises, started its awards career a year ago in Berlin, where it won the Golden Bear for best film and Silver Bears for actor and actress. It's only the second Iranian film nominated in this category, the first being "Children of Heaven" in 1999. Response has been so strong to the film, originally titled "The Separation of Nader From Simin," that Farhadi also received an original screenplay Oscar nod. Sony Classics made the pic available to members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Science's writing branch via download.
Critics have touted Farhadi's ability to show profound insight into the Iranian social fabric via a relatively ordinary premise -- the break-up of a 14-year-old marriage. With no diplomatic ties between the U.S. and Iran, "A Separation" had a relatively low-key profile during the awards season. Though Farhadi is sanctioned by the state of Iran, which submitted the film for its official entry, Iranian officials have been cautious about wholeheartedly endorsing his recognition. Farhadi attracted notice for defending Iranian directors persecuted in their home country, but "A Separation" evaded censors with a more subtle critique of the government. Only Academy members who have seen all five contenders were able to take part in the voting for the field, which included "Monsieur Lazhar," from Canada, directed by Philippe Falardeau; "Footnote," from Israel, directed by Joseph Cedar; "In Darkness," from Poland, directed by Agnieszka Holland; and "Bullhead," from Belgium, directed by Michael Roskam.

Kudos campaigning goes lower for the wire
Berenice Bejo in "The Artist"
Allison Janney and Emma Stone in "The AssistanceInch
'Hugo'George Clooney in "The Descendants"
'Moneyball'It's easy to believe that "The Artist" has this honours season ended, given the quantity of experts honours and guild honors the film has collected since November, along with its sweep in the BAFTAs a week ago. Most bloggers have found the final outcome getting a dramatic yawn the best-picture Oscar is essentially certain for your black-and-white-colored quiet movie.Yet for just about any season that allegedly ended as soon as the nominations were introduced, there's still a lot of campaigning happening before Tuesday's 5 p.m. ballots deadline -- and not for your film which will seem to want it minimal.Although campaigner extraordinaire Harvey Weinstein has his ft firmly grown round the gas for "The Artist," he's keeping apace with formidable competition from "The Help,In . "Hugo," "Moneyball," among others. All of the films that are working very challenging to the trail achieve this because fortunes can alter quickly, even this late in the sport.The latest example was a year ago, when "The Social MediaInch collected a lot of honours before "The King's Speech" ultimately won best picture.This Season, el born area office might of "Avatar" wasn't enough to overcome out "The Hurt Locker," even though many mentioned in those days that voters would proceed and take opportunity to reward a film that was ideal for the industry's coffers. And many Oscar audiences were shocked a lot more 2005 "Crash" bested "Brokeback Mountain," that have formerly won the PGA, DGA, Spirits, Globes, BAFTA and Experts Choice honours.Further further complicating matters is really a couple of voters' inclination to return ballots before the deadline. A campaigner who's also an Academy member mentioned that lots of voters concept every nominated film making informed options, causeing this to be the other day of campaigning crucial. "Voters would rather spread their election around after they like every movie," the campaigner referred to."It's anyone's year" happens when another kudos consultant known for this Oscar season.This is why even though common understanding dictates that across-the-board major guild honours for "The Artist" seems to possess Weinstein Co. reason to wind down, there's nothing certain prior to the ballots are within reach of PwC's an accountant.InchDesignerInch star Jean Dujardin, that's been highly visible since October, hasn't proven any signs and signs and symptoms of slowing down lower lower since he won the Screen Stars Guild trophy within the month of the month of january, most recently developing a "Saturday Evening Live" cameo but nonetheless coping with London just before the BAFTAs the very next day. And director Michel Hazanvicius, producer Thomas Langmann and composer Ludovic Bource possess the signs and symptoms of spent more hours in La than Paris throughout the final four several days.The perceived leader, having a cast and crew of relative unknowns, needs to cope with George Clooney and Kaira Pitt making themselves readily available round the campaign trail. Two films each supply the best actor nominees -- each considered due for wins -- plenty of speaking points.Another honours consultant put it a little more candidly: "Films that have accomplished good results in nominations are the types that could escape the big guns. There's lots of George and Kaira it changed people opinions round the films."That is not despite the amount of press Martin Scorsese has for "Hugo." Academy voting precedent supports the film leading in noms is most likely to win best picture, the campaign for "Hugo" remains going strong.The not-so-incidental plus that sets "The Artist" apart gets Weinstein steering the campaign. While Pitt and Clooney shake hands and take interviews, Weinstein is making certain his "Artist" crew does from developing a spoof with Funny or Die to locating the very first "Created in the usaInch award within the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce to be the sole real best-picture nominee shot in L.A. Clever positioning comprises that the pic lacks in star energy.While using deadline to submit ballots just days away, it's apparent that nobody takes anything without any consideration in this particular year's Oscar contest.

Jessica Chastain to Make Broadway Debut in 'The Heiress'
Jessica Chastain -- the "It" actress who's likely to get an Oscar nomination for one of her umpteen-diddly movies of 2011, including 'The Help' and 'The Tree of Life' -- is now prepping to conquer Broadway. She'll make her Broadway debut this fall in 'The Heiress.' It's a role that won an Oscar for Olivia de Havilland back in 1950. Since she'll be playing an unattractive 19th-century heiress, she'll likely be "uglified" with heavy eyebrows, as was de Havilland. This will also be the first Broadway venture for Paula Wagner, who'll co-produce. "I was immediately struck by Jessica's talent and skill when I saw her on stage opposite Al Pacino in Salome," Wagner told THR. "She is an actress with that rare ability to transition effortlessly between the stage and screen." 'The Heiress' premiered in 1947 and has had four previous Broadway productions. The last, in 1995, won Tony Awards for Best Revival and Lead Actress for Cherry Jones. Chastain, a graduate of the Juilliard School of Drama, is nominated for a Golden Globe for her role in 'The Help' and an Independent Spirit Award for 'Take Shelter.' Her 2011 credits include 'The Tree of Life,' 'Coriolanus' and 'The Debt.' [via THR] [Photo: Getty] Follow Moviefone on Twitter Like Moviefone on Facebook
