Oh. I guess I like the "V" collar, the huge sleeves over the long tight sleeves, and the many folds in the costume. By the way, this was not her wedding dress but her "Queen" dress at the very end.

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
Woohoo! I was glad to hear it called out! That means it officially got more Oscar noms than Aladdin...

So? I don't get where the schadenfreude is coming from. The films were never in competition with each other. And it's not like Aladdin was a critical darling.

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
What makes me laugh about it is how "under the radar" Maleficent: Mistress of Evil was compared to Aladdin, which got a lot of love for it's techs and Will Smith's performance, as well as an outstanding box office run. Additionally, The Lion King was a colossal box office success, and still only ended up with 1 nom. Personally, it makes me happy that Mal got some recognition, as much as or more than films that made more money.

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
Well, it did make half a billion. Considering there had to be a drop from the first film's intake, it did much better than I expected, really. Disney has to be delusional if they thought this would rake in the same amount as the first film.

Did Maleficent: Mistress of Evil get nominated for an Oscar for costume design?

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
I find that sad and disappointing. I thought the costumes in this one were better than the ones in the first one, and the ones from the first one did get nominated.

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
I agree, though I'm not shocked. Nearly all of the awards were very centered around the Best Picture nominees this year (and most years). Basically it's very difficult for a movie like this to sneak into the art categories, because the voters tend to just vote for the 9 or so Best Picture nominees in all of the categories. It's a little boring, truthfully.Disney Duster wrote:I find that sad and disappointing.

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
Hm. You have opened my mind to a sad truth of the Oscars. Oh well. At least the first Maleficent did get a nomination in the category.
Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
I also felt Rocketman and Dolemite Is My Name were deserving of costume design nominations, but I guess they weren't able to compete against the Best Picture nominees that made it in the category. I would have nominated Little Women and Jojo Rabbit, too, but I would have switched out The Irishman and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood for Rocketman and Dolemite. I haven't seen Joker yet, so I can't comment on that nomination.

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
What a strange movie this was! At turns “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” and at others a fantasy retelling of the St. Bartholomew’s Day Massacre by way of Auschwitz. I’m not sure I needed or ever really cared about knowing where or who Maleficent came from, but here we are. I thought Michelle Pfeiffer was a worthier adversary than King Stefan was in the previous entry and I thought this movie overall was, if not great, better than the first film.
These movies’ biggest selling point is Angelina Jolie as Maleficent. She’s spectacular in the costumes and make-up with those incredible wings, horns, and cutglass cheekbones. It’s a campy performance with wonderful dry, dark humor. She’s very, very good even if the movies surrounding her are otherwise mediocre.

I can believe it. It could be Disney+ only, for example.

Re: Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
The first one was interesting...the second one had potential, but the plot was ridiculous, especially towards the ending. I wonder, what else can they think of for a third movie?
