The 97th Annual Academy Awards

[Lily Adler]

Wow another one who forgot Nickel Boys.

Wow another one who forgot Nickel Boys.

The biggest disgrace in the awards season after the Dune 2 snub is how we all let Nickel Boys down.

I must ask: why is Zoe Saldana winning for Emilia Perez when, from all accounts, she didn’t deserve it? Don’t get me wrong, she’s usually a solid actress, but why her over Ariana Grande? I don’t understand.

Zoe's agent must be better than Ariana's.

That's the only thing I can think of.

Yet everyone hated her performance. I don’t get it.

Part of the unpredictable nature of the Oscars is not only who wins, but what roles they win for.

 

[Black Narcissus]

Saldana is well liked. Sometimes tis’ that simple. I mean, how the hell does one explain that Sandra Bullock win for her role in the blindside?

 

[flickchick85]

Yeah she’s been in the acting community for decades now, so unless you behave like a total monster and everyone hates you, that usually racks up some goodwill points. Same goes for why Demi will likely win over Mikey, honestly.

Timmy has Mamba mentality.

While this Oscar season has brought no shortage of controversy, the awards shows have been largely apolitical. That might well change at the Oscars.

Some are more obvious tho. Lawd.

Jennifer Lopez should’ve been nominated for an oscar (Hustlers)…eh.

I just watched The Substance. My kind of movie. Was watching the movie with a couple others, and they're more logic minded and asked questions like how the younger version was getting paid and such without a SS number, and I was like this movie isn't meant to be realistic. It's about the visual metaphors and the surrealist elements. Make up effects also are outstanding.

High quality movie.

In honor of the Oscars this weekend and seeing how The Ringer just did a pod about it, I'm finally checking out why Crash is the worst best picture winner.


And I'm not even 10 seconds in and I see the old Lionsgate logo, instant nostalgia.

 

[Kane52630]

[Kane52630]

This sh** is so baffling.

However...

Spoiler

Jennifer Esposito tho?

It’s giving “I voted for Trump because he’s going to [policy he actively campaigned against].”

I think Covid genuinely ****ed everyone in the head.

...what do you mean there's still an hour left in this movie?

...what do you mean there's still an hour left in this movie?

Did you get to the part when Sandra Bullock said “BRING HIS HOMIES” in the most Karen tone ever?
