Let’s do a Loved/Liked/Eh/Disliked/Hated ranking of the films we’ve seen this Oscars season as a new thread icebreaker. Films don’t necessarily have to be Best Picture contenders, but contenders/worthy of a nomination in any category.

Loved

• Parasite
• The Lighthouse
• Weathering With You
• Portrait of a Lady on Fire***
• Bacurau***
• Promare**

Liked

• The Farewell
• Dolemite Is My Name**
• Once Upon A Time In Hollywood*
• Hustlers
• Us**
• Toy Story 4

Eh

• Ford Vs Ferrari

Disliked

• Joker

Hated

• Jojo Rabbit
• The Laundromat****

* This film has deep problems in everything from editing to cinematography (FEET), but the great scenes are truly great and I admire what this film’s ultimate purpose is.

** I mean, there are categories available for you to nominate these in, Academy. If you aren’t cowards.

*** Their respective countries decided not to pick them as Foreign Language contenders so further nominations are unlikely and possibly inconceivable. Shame, these are probably better than most of what will get nominations this year.

**** This might get more Razzies noms than Oscar noms. Fucking christ almighty, what a colossal cockup.

Oscars 2021: I support Denis Villeneuve (Dune), David Fincher (Mank), Willem Dafoe (The Card Counter), and Glenn Close (Hillbilly Elegy).

Movie-lover overall.

So more basic choices are likely then? Oh well, I guess with more international voters this was an inevitable tradeoff.
