#12014-12-28 06:06The fact that people need a petition to have Antonio Sanchez' score eligible for nomination at the very least is indicative of a broken system. Please correct your path, and allow this groundbreaking score receive the appropriate qualification status. |

#22014-12-28 13:43Academy NEEDS to give a real reason for their decision. AS's score was incredible and an integral part of the story telling process. |

#52014-12-28 19:49This petition is the very least we can in support of Antonio Sanchez and his works of art. Hi ssocres were wrongly disqualified for Oscar nomination. |

#62014-12-28 19:53Another comparison, maybe even better, is with the score for The Artist, which actually won the Oscar in 2012 despite the climactic scene being underscored by music lifted directly from Bernard Hermann's score for Vertigo. Shameful. |

#92014-12-28 20:09Academy do what is right for arts & music. What is worthy should be chosen. Disqualifying birdman score is wrong and hurts the industry by suppressing the new and bright. Changing your mind will show reason and desire to continue growing and learning. We all make mistakes. It's in correcting them we keep true and able to aspire. |

#112014-12-28 20:30Was such an amazing and unique concept that deserves to be recognized as a pivotal moment in film scoring |

#132014-12-28 20:48I saw the film and felt the drum score made the film conceptually unique and very powerful. Everyone I know who saw it and several before I saw it commented on the score which rarely if ever happens. This is a very big mistake to exclude it from consideration. Having worked on an Oscar winning film in editorial myself. |

#152014-12-28 21:43This is one of the most impressive and innovative scores in a film to date. The interpretation of emotion on a drum set at this depth only demonstrated how deeply connected the composer was with the film, and the drumming was pure genius. Limiting a film score to conventional composition/orchestration format should not be part of the criteria for consideration in the Oscars. Daring to break the rules for the sake of creativity only demonstrated the uniqueness of the film and an advancement in film production as a whole. |

#172014-12-28 22:31Mr. Sanchez deserves to be considered for his amazing, unique and skillful music score! |

#192014-12-28 22:57Whoever decided canned classical music has any comparison to the jaw-dropping original drum score which enhanced SO MANY imperative scenes in Birdman is ..... well, for the birds! The drum score was a huge part of this film's success must be reinstated as an Oscar contender!! Please. |

#21 Re:2014-12-28 23:43Thanks so much for the comment and your signature! One small correction: Fortunately, eligibility for an Oscar for a film score is not limited to conventional orchestral content. What makes the Academy excuse so infuriating is that there is no such criteria to eliminate Antonio's score and they did it anyway. |

#222014-12-29 00:13It makes no sense that such a brilliant score, which has already won other awards, doesn't even get to be considered for the highest honor it deserves. |
Guest |
#232014-12-29 00:59Birdman's score is the most innovative and clearly one of the best ones I've heard in my life. It work's perfectly with the movie. The Academy Awards are obviously scared. |

#242014-12-29 01:33Ser baterista muchas veces es menospreciado en muchos ámbitos, a pesar de ser y que nos digan que somos el corazón de la banda.. el pulso, la energía y otras palabras halagadoras, en el momento que podemos ocupar un lugar realmente importante prefieren ignorar nuestro arte. VAMOS ANTONIO CARAJO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
