He seems to be doing a lot of campaigning and attending almost all the FYC events for Minari the picture.</p>

I hope I don’t come off as pedantic or rude in any way, but I think you mean to say Steven Yeun. Youn is the surname of his co-star, Youn Yuh-jung, however.

Argo is garbage. Worst BP winner of the decade.

Argo only won Best Picture because the Academy felt bad for snubbing Affleck. It should have never won best picture

Director - Chloe Zhao (Nomadland), Lee Isaac Chung (Minari), Thomas Vinterberg (Another Round), Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman)

Actress - Carey Mulligan (Promising Young Woman), Frances McDormand (Nomadland)
S. Actor - Daniel Kaluuya (Judas and the Black Messiah), Paul Raci (Sound of Metal)

Wow, WB are really trying it. (Also when did Affleck get so tatted up?)

Since we’re on the topic of pre-pandemic performances. Universal, sweeties. Get Jon Hamm to host a Q&A with Elisabeth Moss. The press and GP will explode.

Argo won GG, Oscars, and BAFTA.  I don’t think snubbing Ben is the reason why it won. It’s just that Argo is a safe choice for them.

Coen-Lynch-Fellini
FYC: Soul & Judas and the Black Messiah

Ben Affleck would however be the first actor to be nominated for playing a bad, unflattering parody of himself, wouldn’t he? Let’s hope that doesn’t happen, like, anywhere.

FYC:

Lead Actor: Mads Mikkelsen (Another Round)

Supporting Actress: Maria Bakalova (Borat Subsequent Moviefilm)

Supporting Actor: Paul Raci (Sound of Metal)

Every time someone mentions Affleck I squirm. He’s the definition of white mediocrity.

FYC OSCARS : PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN IN ALL CATEGORIES (ESP. ACTRESS – Carey Mulligan AND ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY — EMERALD FENNELL), VANESSA KIRBY FOR "PIECES OF A WOMAN", ESSIE DAVIS FOR "BABYTEETH"

I wish it was only mediocrity. He’s plain bad and bloated.
There is something so unpleasant about him that no one will convince me that he isn’t actually Nick Dunne. And we just know he was one of the biggest W**ns**in enablers.
