    Looks like next year's ceremony will have "rotating hosts"

    Deadline reported that John Mulaney was also offered but declined

    I'd love to see Ricky Gervais host solo maybe himself and Stephen Merchant or Steve Carell could be a pair of the rotating hosts

    Some names already rumoured are The Rock, Kevin Hart, Emily Blunt, Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, Amy Poehler, Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Ryan Gosling, John Cena, Kate McKinnon, Kate McKinnon and Taika Waititi

    From what I have seen so far this year, some of those nominations are spot on. Delighted to see Jeremy Strong nominated for best supporting actor (The Apprentice) for The Golden Globes. Hope he gets that nod in more ceremonies and wins.

    The Substance is hardly a musical or comedy?

    It’s absolutely a comedy. Black comedy, but comedy nonetheless.

    The Substance is a very black comedy, especially the second half of the movie...

    Above list seems strangely 'our own Saoirse' free…don't think The Outrun or Blitz really got much traction on big screens.

    She was getting oscar buzz early on for The Outrun and Blitz seemed oscar bait, as in the storyline and role plus the director

    The Blitz is a terrible movie and Saoirse is fine in it but not Oscar worthy. The Outrun was much better film and performance.

    That's just the way GG do their categories to fit them in . The Martian was nominated as a comedy a few years ago which was ridiculous.

    Emilia Perez speeding its way towards becoming one of the absolute worst best picture winners in history. I just know the Academy is stupid enough to do it.

    It's a shame the GG didn't show Viola Davis receiving the Cecil B. DeMille award, is that new, not showing it anymore?

    it was a shame it wasn't on the main telecast, but as they explained, it was highlighted on Sunday, but the event for them was on friday, and they had all the time in the world for it.

    Must be the worst year in a long time for films when you look at the mediocrity thats in the running for the Oscars this year.

    30 years ago we had The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction and Forest Gump nominated for Best Picture. What a year.

    Of course the Academy made a bollix of the winners in most categories that year. They usually do.

    Not too many huge surprises, maybe Angelina Jolie not getting a nod, I know people also said The Last Showgirl might have had a few noms as well.

    No kneecap from an Irish POV.

    One I would have liked to see in lead actress would have been Saoirse Ronan for The Outrun but I don't think she was in the conversation. Margaret Qualley probably worthy too from The Substance.

    Nice to see the excellent Sing Sing getting some nominations.

    Delighted Yuri from Anora got a nomination, and glad to see Anora with so many noms, was my favourite film in a long time.

    At least we don't have to suffer Kneecap showing up to the awards in balaclavas etc!

    As mixed a bag as ever from the Academy. Delighted to see a nomination for Nickel Boys in Best Picture, as it's frankly on an entirely different level to most of the other films in there. Don't think it has a snowball's chance in hell of winning, but still.

    Emilia Perez continuing to stink up the awards season. Just bamboozled at its continued presence in these awards.

    Countless great films ignored as always, but it's a real shame All We Imagine As Light didn't break through anywhere, even Best International Feature.

    Best supporting actor is the most impressive category of the lot. Culkin has it in the bag (deservedly, although it's a bloody lead performance), but Borisov and Pearce would both be very worthy winners IMO. Glad to see Mikey Madison make the cut too in best actress.

    Best Animated Feature is a tough one to pick. Would love to see Wallace and Gromit get it though. I've watched it several times now and it still makes me laugh
