Bohemian Rhapsody is strictly speaking not a good movie but sound editing and Rami Malek are okay wins

A Quiet Place was robbed, and yes you should watch A Star is Born, it is excellent. Though if you're only going to watch one I'd still recommend Judy Garland's over it.

e: the stuff they did to make malek sound like mercury was impressive stuff, but idk if it really deserves either sound category

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
It is not surprising that the movie about making music won the sound awards, especially since the Live Aid concert sequence is supposed to be a stunner.

I have Rami Malek to win too and he deserves it for Mr. Robot so I'm okay with that one

They combined the performances of two dudes and created stadium sound mixes out of dreadful monitor recordings. This award was well deserved.

Three dudes, iirc. Malek, a Canadian singer whose name I keep forgetting, and Mercury himself.

Bohemian Rhapsody and Black Panther sweeping the Oscars seems like a desperate attempt by the Academy to respond to declining ratings.

"OK, what were the biggest movies this year?"

"Well, Avengers is at the top."

"That's a no."

"Well, Black Panther is second."

"...Well, I guess it'll satisfy those #OscarsSoWhite bastards. What was third?"

"Jurassic World 2."

"You gotta be loving kidding me. Next."

"Incredibles 2."

"Animated movies are going to stay in the goddamn cave they belong. Next."

"Aquaman, Venom..."

"Oh my god."

"...Bohemian Rhapsody, Mission Impossible..."

"loving FINALLY. Give them all to Black Panther and Bohemian Rhapsody. And give a couple to Roma, they've dumped enough truckloads of cash at my doorstep to earn it."

I'll caveat my statement by saying I try to avoid things that I know are gonna suck unless they get nominated for Best Picture. Venom is also borderline, though entertaining.

Venom is redeemed by Tom Hardy picking himself up and throwing himself into the role by his own feet somehow.

Also there's also the editing so terrible that they find half a dozen symbiotes clinging to an asteroid in space and an hour later, one of them is claiming to be the king of an entire symbiote planet and nobody reacts like that's new information.

you shoudl watch the whole movie but you can just watch richard e. grant's last scene and be moved to tears. the brutally honest oscar ballot guy called it the best acting of the year and he's right.
