Nice to see a South African film there: My Octopus Teacher 😁

The entire concept of the Oscars has been swallowed up by self-important spiels of mutual-congratulation within an industry so out of touch with reality it is all but drowning in its own puke of ersatz righteousness.

I haven't seen any of the movies nominated in any category

I never even heard of them!

Same here.

Amusing commentary; it is worth noting that the focus of Oscars has shifted away from Western centrism. :thumbup: :smile:

Oh! And regarding "this year's list" ... I couldn't care less.   :teddyr:

Only heard of Mulan, Tenet, & the animated movies. Haven't seen any of 'em.

Who watches this pretentious garbage anymore?

And the Grammy's are all about the dumbest buy the most. It's not good music. It's flashy generic sh1t.

Those self important films with a message will be forgotten in a few years, but junk like ROBOT MONSTER lives on and on.

The "artists"  who make this boring s**t just jerk each other off.

I'm sure millions of people like to look at  real   good   movies.   Just because we've developed a taste for a Cheezee Sheet Samich is NOT their shortcoming. 


Yes to this.  We'll not get started on how the Grammy Awards are SH!T. 

so I didn't watch as I haven't heard of most of these pictures

did anyone who watched have anything to say about it?

Bob, I'm just glad that South Africa won another Oscar for "My Octopus Teacher" which I will watch if I can get the Netflix password out of my landlords.

Oscars Shmoscars!

Their ratings are the worst they've ever been. They had less than half the viewers from last year.
And they deserve it. They pulled a dirty trick by switching Best Picture and Best Actor again. It was
obvious they were trying to exploit Chadwick Boseman's death for ratings.

Yep.  Though I'll say Hopkins I think deserved it.  The Father is an incredible performance.

I have only seen "Mank"  all the way through and it was TERRIBLE.

John Houseman's story of how he supervised Herman Mankewicz's writing of the Citizen Kane script could be a movie in itself. :teddyr:
