Blade Runner 2049 - Denis Villeneuve, Ridley Scott, Harrison Ford, Ryan Gosling are talking in a BTS photo taken in Budapest, Hungary. Now we know that they were talking in Deckard's apartment. :)

We can discover the same furniture in these stills from the movie:

 Kudos to those award recipients. It would be interesting to see a fan driven show (I know there are some) that go off the beaten path.

Denis Villeneuve should have been nominated for best director.

Svanya - I agree with you.

I was surprised a little bit to see Nolan('s Dunkirk) in that category.

And I don't understand why The Last Jedi is nominated in the cat. Visual Effects.

The Last Jedi has been pulled from all theaters in China after two weeks:
