Women Flopping is a truly atrocious movie, it’s truly baffling how it got into best picture and is likely to win for its screenplay. Living or Top Gun really should be walking away with this.

 

I see you are the entertainment of the night. good bit

I switched Banshees to EEAAO but hoping I’m wrong.
If there’s a place Banshees should definitely win is Screenplay, such a good screenplay.

He lives in you, he lives in me, he watches over everything we see.
Into the water, into the truth, in your reflection, he lives in you.

I had the same dilemma, but I think your switch is a good one.

Women Talking is winning Adapted Screenplay but it’s a toss up between Banshees ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️ & EEAAO for Original.

24. Top Gun : Maverick
25. Triangle of Sadness
26. Licorice Pizza
27. The Trial of the Chicago 7
28. Don’t Look Up
29. Belfast
30. Borat Subsequent Moviefilm

Top 2 have frankly two of the best screenplays I’ve ever seen. 3-9 are all also excellent character pieces although I don’t think I’d be able to tell you how I’d feel about them if I was still alive in 20 years time. 10-16 are also very good but either wouldn’t have been my choices to win in their respective fields or are films I feel were much more carried by their acting and direction (of which some of them have truly great directorial flare) or were great screenplays but not exactly world-changing. 17 is a very good film with a well written screenplay but also one that I thought could have gone further in its attempts at subversion. 18 to 23 did their jobs and the less said about 24 to 30 the better.

Solidarity with the striking writers. Pay them the wages they are owed for bringing us the content we are all on here because of!

so actually you don’t need to have more noms to win screenplay in either categories then other examples were Her vs American hustle , get out vs three billboards , Talk to her vs gangs of new york , it’s all about momentum and precursors
