Meh, not too far away.

I'll look for Nickel Boys, but like Emilia Pérez I'm in no rush to see it. Still might skip both.

There's a screener for Nickel Boys. That's who I saw it.

Yeah, so I think the Bob Dylan biopic and Brutalist are supposed to come out this week.

I hope to give that Donald Trump movie The Apprentice a gander in the meantime. I think Trump tried to limit the release or otherwise suppress it somehow, so it must be good.

Sonic 3 should be up for this or Paddington in Peru, Paddington and Sonic are the best actors.

^ Lol..

if Bots ran the Oscars.

Sonic is nuanced he can be BLOOD LUSTED but also care about DOUGHNUT LORD.

Alright, so I watched The Apprentice about how the Mango Menace became the conman and pr!ck we know today. It's pretty fascinating. Not necessarily an incredible movie, but definitely worth a watch for the relevance and political intrigue that it inherently has. Pretty fascinating to see how he was shaped into such a destructive force, because I think the movie does give insight into that.

Also finally finished The Brutalist after 3 sittings. It's long. I didn't love it, but it definitely has some amazing actors in it and there are some things that happen that you won't entirely expect. Guaranteed. I think Guy Pearce is a severely underrated actor. To me he's Denzel Washington level, but is more low-key. But ultimately I didn't love it. 7/10 from me.

I still am waiting on I'm Still Here and A Complete Unknown.

I suspect Anora cleaned up because Emilia Perez gathered a bit too much controversy. Which I'm fine with.

Dune 2 won special effects and sound which is much deserved.

But did Conclave really come away empty-handed? That's a crime.

Oh, and Conan was hilarious. His entrance. 😂 😂

I also thought Guy Pearce or Jeremy Strong deserved the best supporting role, but oh well.

Conclave despite its lack of ass and titties, was a better quality film than Anora.

That's a difficult thing to admit. I'm proud of you, Rob.

Conclave won best Adapted Screenplay. So it wasn't completely empty-handed. My bad.

So that's good.
