T10 WHATS UP! March 4 - 10, 2018 tion (like Amazon's nomination for "Manchester By the Sea" last year), the platform is gain- ing momentum. It was nomi- nated twice for Best Documen- tary Feature ("Icarus" and "Strong Island") this year. "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" got seven nods, including one for lead- ing actress Frances McDor- mand. Her biggest competi- tion is Saoirse Ronan for "Lady Bird." "Three Bill- boards" also garnered a dou- ble nomination for Best Actor in a Supporting Role for Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell. Willem Dafoe joins them for the supporting actor nomination for his role in "The Florida Project." "Three Billboards" is also competing with "Lady Bird" for Best Original Screenplay, along with "The Big Sick," "Get Out" and "The Shape of Water." Denzel Washington has an- other nomination this year for his leading role in "Roman J. Is- rael, Esq." He's going head to head with Gary Oldman for "Darkest Hour," Daniel Kaluuya in "Get Out," Timo- thée Chalamet in "Call Me by Your Name" and Daniel Day- Lewis in "Phantom Thread." The host joked that there were some snubs he didn't agree with, citing "Wonder Woman" as a prime example while venting on his show, "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" He also thought Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks should have been nominated for "The Post," but the two nods the film did re- ceive are certainly nothing to sneeze at. In reality, Kimmel seems sur- prisingly calm about his host- ing gig, despite what the promo implies about his lingering fear of envelopes. With the fallout from the recent Harvey Wein- stein scandal, we can expect the air to be rife with tension, and for there to be a few speeches on the subject. Of course, audiences should expect the long-standing gag between Kimmel and Matt Da- mon ("The Martian," 2015) to continue. Though it might be getting a little old at this point, Kimmel will (hopefully) trim the bit this year and give poor Damon a break from his chirp- ing. It will also be interesting to see if Kimmel delivers food to the audience this year, which is quickly becoming a tradition. The first time, the emcee fed the crowd peanut butter and jelly sandwiches; the second round included parachutes of candy, cookies and doughnuts floating from the ceiling. What culinary display he comes up with this year remains to be seen, or he may drop the nib- bles all together.
