needlessly edgy for sure, but i agree with the general point.

just a little reminder to everyone that goodfellas lost to dances with f*cking wolves. seriously f*ck the oscars i don't care who wins

Amusing silliness aside, Everything Everywhere All At Once was terrible. I'm kind of astonished that it has a Best Picture nom.

Hm... Triangle of Sadness ended just as it was getting good. So that was frustrating. 6/10

Oh, and it needed more Woody Harrelson. The Beach is a comparable and better film, imo.

I've got a long ways to go. I just finished Top Gun 1986, so might do Maverick next...

All Quiet on the Western Front -

Avatar: The Way of Water - 9/10

The Banshees of Inisherin -

Elvis -

Everything Everywhere All at Once - 4/10

The Fabelmans - 9/10

Tár -

Top Gun: Maverick -

Triangle of Sadness - 6/10

Women Talking -

My only gripe with Everything Everywhere All at Once is that it went on too long near the end, Could've wrapped it up sooner.

^^^Everything Everywhere Much too Long?

Fraser is a shoe-in.

Yeah, after seeing The Whale I think it will be insane if he doesn't win for that performance.

I actually think the movie is massively snubbed for not having a Best Pic nom, too. So it at least deserves the Best Actor win.

This is really cool...

You people are clearly all massive racists against the Chinese. Only explanation.

I just don't take kindly to mocking high-concept sci-fi.

I'm a big Matrix fan, and maybe it was meant as sort of an homage? But it didn't work.

I checked out probably about halfway through and just forced myself to finish. Just to see the train wreck.

I almost forgot... Thirteen Lives was totally snubbed this year...

I watched Tar. I didn't particularly care for it. It's more of a slow character study instead of an actual movie. Kate Blanchett is good, of course (I've always like her), but it didn't deserve a best pic nom..

EO (2022)

Donkey movie. The donkey deserves a nomination for Best Actor. (This is a best international film nominee).

I gave a half-assed attempt to watch some of The Quiet Girl. It might get more interesting, but I think I'm starting to get a little burnt out on watching Oscar films.

I still want to try to watch Living with Bill Nighy.
