Uncut Gems getting shut out while the throughly mediocre Joker got the most noms is fucking lame.
The Oscars are pretty shit.
Bombshell should win for any of the make-up things. Charlize Theron looked JUST like Megyn Kelly.

Joker is less unique than the Hurt Locker.
It's basically a straight up Scorcese ripoff. King Of Comedy and Taxi Driver...

I still need to download that.
Probably going to download Richard Jewel tonight and maybe that HP Lovecraft movie with Nic Cage.

I couldn't be less interested in that Jewel movie but I do want to see Megan Kelley the motion picture

I've seen all the best picture nominees except little women. My vote goes to once upon a time in Hollywood

Parasite shocker
The movie was very good but I didn't think a foreign language film could win best picture here.

Joker is less unique than the Hurt Locker. It's basically a straight up Scorcese ripoff. King Of Comedy and Taxi Driver... and scorcese production behind it.. i think his beef with marvel was runnin cover for joker/dc and to separate Industrial light and Magic from them so he'll get historical credit for anti aging cgi in the irishman.. coordinated media campaign, rather than off the cuff comment I think he was basically just a producer in name for Joker. His involvement seems pretty minimal.

Can't believe 'The Irishman' got completely shutout. Wonder if it has to do more with Hollywood's disdain for/fear of Netflix than Scorcese and the quality of his film.

The movies run time probably had something to do with it too.

I thought for sure they'd give Scorcese the Swan Song Oscar. I didn't see any of the nominated movies unfortunately.
They are all "on my list" now. That list is very long. I still haven't seen Black Panther.

I'm not a big fan of the super epic length movies on the first viewing, but if it's something worthy of repeated views I dig that they give you more to get into.

I'm kind of the same way. I prefer watching long movies from the comfort of home. Unfortunately the Irishman was too boring for that even. That last 20 minutes or so was a wrist cutter
