Yeah and just before that you can hear his breath catch a bit. Anyway Lily Gladstone and Killers of the Flower Moon overall were robbed.

I'm really really struggling with the Lily Gladstone robbed posts, half of them seem to be Emma Stone already has one so this is wrong and the other half seem to have never seen her performance. She was the odds favourite to win by a mile and it was not by chance.

Overall it was good, nothing shocking just at worst the other person from who I wanted to win in competitive categories. All still well deserved. They really needed a second person out there with Pacino, yikes.

The only winner I'm not thrilled by is Oppenheimer winning Best Score. But even then that's because to me the Poor Things score was strange & memorable in a way that really helped in shaping its aesthetic and mood. Oppenheimer's was pretty good in its own right, just didn't like it as much as Poor Things. But I'm not too disappointed since the composer is pretty young, he'll surely get another shot some day.

Also Jerskin Fendrix's first time working on a movie score. AFAIK, Yorgos just heard his music in a record shop and thought "huh yeah that's weird, that could work". He gets bonus points for having such a weird stage name as well

Winning an Oscar is the closest thing we have to an official consensus that your movie is mid. Congrats to Oppenheimer, 2023's most mid movie.

It's mostly about literature, publishing, and Monk's relationship with his mother. It made me appreciate the adaptation because the movie is going for something else entirely but using much of the same plot and characters. It's much more a critique of Monk's worldview. All that's there in the book, but not really the driving focus.

A good quarter to third of the book is actually "My Pafology", the satire Monk writes to make fun of "black" trauma books. It's barely read in the movie, which uses Monk acting like a ghetto stereotype for publishers/the media as a stand in for the "My Pafology", but that section of the book is goddamn hilarious.

fishing with the fam posted:Poor Things was good and Oppenheimer was good and I'm happy they did well. Same, this was a year that I was happy with basically all the winners, even though I personally enjoyed Barbie and Killers more than the Academy apparently did. My only real disappointment with the Oscars is that The Iron Claw wasn't nominated for a single thing, but I know that's mostly due to how late it came out in the year.

Iron Claw was so loving good. Almost everyone knocked it out the park... everyone but the idiot they got for Ric Flair. gently caress that was bad. He looked alright but couldn't capture anything about him in performance.

Good Soldier Svejk posted:nobody even remembers Ray CatstropheWaitress posted:Not to mention a reoccuring role on Parks and Rec as councilman Jamm. This is true. On a similar note, I think it's really cool that after winning so many NBA titles, Michael Jordan became such an accomplished actor. He looked so different in Black Panther, you wouldn't even know it was him. In fact, you might think it's just a completely different person with a similar but not identical name

He looked alright but couldn't capture anything about him in performance. I agree and the performance does hurt a pretty amazing movie, but I feel for the actor. The only way for the director to handle that should have been to use archival footage of Flair or just not had Flair in it at all. It isn't just hard for an actor to perform as Ric Flair. It is impossible. No one on earth can do what Ric Flair could in his prime. For me it didn't stick out because the acting was lousy, it was noticeable because of the hubris in even attempting it.

In CODA's defense, none of the other nominees were egregious losses.
