commielingus posted:Maybe Fincher receives his long overdue Best Director win? He was 100% robbed for The Social Network (which also deserved Best Picture) but I don't think Mank is going to get it for him. Personally I'm rooting for Glenn Close to win both the Oscar and the Razzie for Hillbilly Elegy, a movie I have no interest in watching.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:If Fincher deserved a statue for anything it was Zodiac. Absolutely, but the Academy in its great wisdom did not deem it worthy of a single nomination. I guess it would have gone up against No Country and There Will Be Blood if it had which would've been an interesting race.

I personally think 2006 is pretty solid too (maybe not for great cinema but for stuff I remember being entertained by), and I will defend Miami Vice until the day I die.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:oh yeah that original smash opening is absolutely priceless, it feels ballsy even today. I have a lot of respect for it not being an intro story for Crockett and Tubbs, they're already an established team and the movie is basically a modernized and extended episode of the show. But back to the awards chat, I find it frustrating that the rental prices for these movies are so drat high. Like they know we can't go to theatres right?? Minari and Judas are just sitting on my Watch Next list in Prime because I don't feel like spending $30CAD on a movie that would cost under half of that in the theatre. And even though Sound of Thunder is an Amazon movie it's not available on Prime in Canada either

Uncle Boogeyman posted:The Departed would probably be third for me, with 12 Years a Slave after that. In Infernal Affairs she's two separate characters. Scorsese follows the original pretty closely otherwise. I remember when he won the Oscar for Director, the announcer called it a Japanese movie (which Marty corrected in his speech) - how do you gently caress up something like that?
