Until many years later, the 2006 awards season was still called "the most chaotic year in history."

The "Raging Road" that leads the box office to the overall reputation of reputation has not been able to show the strong dominance of "Titanic" and "Lord of Rings 3". It fell into a hard battle during the awards season. Not only because of the cult attributes of this movie, it can be said that it completely shattered the mainstream style, which is incompatible with the college's usual reserve and conservative attitude, almost every detail is challenging the academy's sensitive nerves; it is also because Hollywood is undergoing a distinctive pain period.

This stage has nothing to do with the film industry, but with the awakening of social ideology. Just like a fallen culture was born after World War II, and a large number of related art works were derived from it. After entering the 21st century, the powerful influence of the Internet has brought society into a stage of change. From the emergence of "Brokeback Mountain" in 2005 to the "Rampant Road" awakening the diversification of culture and the rise of minorities and vulnerable groups in 2006, this change in social ideology projected on the film industry. It can be said that the small awards ceremony reflects the changes in society.

However, this change is a world-shattering transformation for the American Academy of Film Arts and Sciences. What they need is not only courage, but also courage, but also a kind of sharpness. The "Citizen Kane" in 1940 was a comprehensive innovation in film shooting skills, the "Male and Female Thieves" in 1967 was a subversion of anti-hero culture and script structure, the "Great White Jaws" in 1975 and the "Star Wars" in 1977 marked a new era of commercial films, and the "vulgarity" in 1994 brought innovation in narrative techniques and the rise of independent films... These movies have a common feature. They attracted much attention and recognition in that year. Oscars gave nominations and affirmations, but their endings were all defeated, especially the Best Film and Best Director.

In this way, it is no surprise that the turmoil in 2006 was not surprising. Even if there was no "Raging Road", the "Sunny Little Beauty" and "Towering Tower" in 2006, the "Old Nowhere to Belong" in 2007, "Juno" and "Blood is Coming", and until the "Social Network" in 2010, all continued this chaotic situation during the pain period.

Ultimately, the awards season is just a mirror that reflects social changes, cultural changes, and historical changes. Awards ceremony, including the Oscars, reflects the attitude and position of the film industry in the face of pain periods in different aspects. The reason why the Oscar is special is not its long history, but its huge membership base. The votes of more than 6,000 members reflect the courage, courage and sharpness of the film industry.

It missed "Citizen Kane", "Male and Female Thieves", "Vulgarity", and "Brokeback Mountain". So, this time, will it miss the "Rampant Road"?

Judging from the development results of the previous life, it finally missed it. It was not until the "Birdman" in 2014 that the college showed enough courage; what about this life? The wheel trajectory of history has undergone a huge deviation, and the process of the times has shown a new look. Last year, "Brokeback Mountain" and "Fruit Hard Candy" almost made a breakthrough at the last moment, but unfortunately they were "collided" when they were about to finish the round. So what about this year?

After the end of the Golden Globes and before the Oscars announced the nomination list, there were still ten days left. The whole Hollywood was in full swing and rumors were endless. The reason why people value the Golden Globes is that the strong connections of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association play a crucial role in the weather vane; and it also lies in the award ceremony dinner for National Entertainment, which will be the best place for college public relations. After the end of the Golden Globes every year, the wind direction and momentum will change drastically, so the awards season can be divided into the first and second half with the Golden Globes as the axis. This year is no exception.

The rumor of sensation changed three times a day. It seemed that the energy accumulated in November and December finally found an outlet for catharsis and erupted in one breath. The craze of the 2006 awards season instantly reached an unprecedented height. The intensive announcement of the list of nominations for the five trade unions added fuel to the fire, completely detonating the volcano that had been silent for a long time.

The American Actors Union, who debuted, was unpopular!

Lance, who was in the "Raging Road", was shortlisted for the Best Actor Competition, which really made countless people's glasses. This made people see Johnny Depp, who had been nominated for three years, not only won the No. 1 award for his outstanding performance as a "Pirates of the Caribbean", but also won the Best Actor Award at the American Actors Union Award in one go. Although he was unable to continue the miracle at the Oscars later, it still caused a burst of shock. Could it be that Lance will continue the magic again this time?

Another upset comes from Leonardo DiCaprio. It is not that he lost the election, but that he was selected for his work. The most highly praised and expected to hit the best film, the "Walkward" was actually lost, and replaced by "Blood Diamond". Objectively speaking, the overall quality and momentum of "Blood Diamond" are far from being compared with "Blood Diamond", which is very unfavorable for the academy's public relations; and Leonardo's performance in "Blood Diamond" is also better, more delicate and richer than "Blood Diamond". However, this is the nomination list, and the name of "Blood Diamond" is clearly visible.

There is also the third unpopularity. Ryan Gosling has seized a place for the nomination with the strong rise of "Half Nelson". The 26-year-old actor was previously unknown and his only work was the movie "Lianlian Laptop". Unexpectedly, this year was lukewarm in the first half of the awards season, but accelerated in the second half and achieved the first important breakthrough in his career.

There is no suspense in the last two seats. Forest Whitaker, the "last dictator" and Peter O'Tu, the "End God of Love", successfully won the nomination. But there is still a fourth unpopular here. Will Smith, who just won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in the Drama category, was squeezed out of the nomination list!

The amount of information is really too much, making the heart unable to bear it.

In addition to the Best Actor Department, "Rampage Road" also won a seat in Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress. The most eye-catching thing is that Gisele Bundchen won the first prize nomination for Best Supporting Actress, and is also the second model to win an important award nomination for the awards season after Kim Basinger. Even considering Gisele's performance of countless praises, this result is still shocking. It is definitely the most eye-catching change in the second half of the awards season; if Jennifer Hudson, who was born in a real talent show, this year's awards season is really weird.

Incredibly, "Rampant Road" was nominated for the Best Group Performance, and was ranked alongside "Tower of the Sky", "Walking Walker", "Dream Chaser Girl" and "Sunny Beauty". There is no need to say more about this result. The American Actors Union expressed their support for "Rampant Road" with practical actions, and they gave this work the same treatment as the original "Titanic".

The American Screenwriters Union Award, which announced the nomination list, the best adapted script department, "Walkward", "Borat", "The Queen of Prada", "Being a Mother" and "Thank You for Smoking" occupied five nomination seats. In addition to "Walkward", the other four seats were more or less unpopular, especially the shortlist of the three comedy movies is even more confusing.

The same is true for the Best Original Script Department. There is no suspense about the shortlist of "Sunshine Beauty", "Towering the Sky" and "Queen" but "Survival in the Pen" and "Thunching Flight 93" occupy the remaining two seats, which is surprising. The exposure rate of both works during the awards season is very limited, and the awards received are even less. Unexpectedly, they can defeat many competitors and get the recognition of the American Screenwriters Union. It is really rare.

"Raging Road" failed to win the nomination. Lance's record of nomination in screenwriters for three consecutive years has not been able to continue. But objectively speaking, the script of "Raging Road" is slightly weak, demonstrating Lance's writing skills and background of character shaping and depth of thought, and is more accomplished by relying on a grand framework. The plot and plot themselves are not enough to stand out in this year's fierce competition.

Then there were no surprises from the American Editors Union, and all the popular works were successfully shortlisted. The plot department, "Tower of the Sky", "Walking in the Fierce Road", "Queen" and "Thugger Flight 93" won nominations; the music and comedy department, "Queen of Prada", "Dream Chasing Girl", "Sunny Beauty", "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", and "Thank You for Smoking" were successfully shortlisted.

The biggest surprise is the "eavesdropping storm", "Pan's Maze" and "Letter from Iwo Jima", and the three well-received foreign language works have not been able to break the language barriers and have been recognized by the American Editors' Union.

As the most authoritative and professional award among the five major unions, the American Directors' Union Award not only has the highest degree of compatibility with the Oscars, but also the prestige and reputation of the winners are also the most recognized. This year, the American Directors' Union Award obviously faced severe tests, and the extremely fierce competition reached its peak, and the final nomination list was also highly anticipated.

Martin Scorses of the "Walking in the Stroke" and Asandro Gonzalez Inaritu of the "Tower of the Sky" were undoubtedly shortlisted; Lancelot Strello won the nomination for four consecutive years and won a lot of applause; both of the remaining two seats were unpopular, Bill Condon of the "Dream Chasing Girl" and Jonathan Dayton of the "Sunshine Beauty" and Valerie Faris counterattacked at the last moment and entered the top five.

"Queen" Stephen Fres was awarded throughout the awards season, but he was disastrous at the most important American Directors' Union Awards, falling below the fragments of glasses; and Clint Eastwood, who won two nominees at the Golden Globes, also returned empty-handed. This result really sparked everyone's surprise.

Due to the high overlap rate between the American Directors' Union and the Oscars, the nomination list immediately pushed the panic atmosphere of the awards ceremony to the extreme. But in this wave, it can be clearly seen that "Walking in the Strike" and "Tower of the Sky" firmly occupy the nomination seats. The four major unions that have been announced are all like this, continuing their strength, and the momentum of the "Raging Road" is unstoppable. In addition to the script, the comprehensive affirmation of the other three major unions demonstrates the general trend.
