A record amount of nominations + wins in Best Actor, Original Screenplay, Casting, and Score is objectively an amazing haul for a movie that likely would have received 0 nominations a decade ago

Frankenstein and F1 getting nominated instead of Weapons and Phoenician Scheme

Sinners is going to win because people in America think race war is what media you consume

Frankenstein is one of the worst best picture nominees of all time

I'm usually a PTA bro but f*** it give best picture to Bugonia

Ann Lee got botched by searchlight. Should’ve been in the convo and Amanda easily could’ve been a distant but commendable #2 behind jessie Buckley

Should have for sure gotten into actress, production design, and original song at minimum

Did it get nominated for music at least? S*** was potent

Yup movie was incredible. Plemmons got f***ed out of best actor big time

Anybody see the secret agent? Won’t have a chance to check it out until after the awards

I love Yorgos but I'm getting a little fatigue tbh

Think it's time for him to either take a break or work with other people

Damn even you liked the music

That ‘hunger and thirst’ one she sings in the jail cell was

But no it didn’t get any noms

Yes it's great

yeah more s*** like The Favourite would be great

People probably said the same thing about Bergman in 1957

You don't take a break when you're on a generational run

I liked that he got out a weird, off putting answer inaccessible one after the heights of poor things but I feel like kinds of kindness kinda messed with his trajectory and added to that feeling of fatigue. If he took that year off and came with Bugonia I feel like it would’ve gone down better

Although it got in for a bunch of big categories so he definitely hasn’t lost that much juice. But yeah he needs a break

Phoenician Scheme worst movie I watched last year

Yeah it’s really good. Really moves to a unique rhythm but once you’re onboard it’s up there with the best of last year

f1 clears all 3 of those other movies

Just put down $20,000 for Bugonia to win best picture

Let’s go get it

Even though it’s good it’s lowkey a flavor of the year movie in that sense

obaa will win best picture

Thread already full of hot takes. O boy
