There is nothing wrong with music biopics. If millions of comic book movies can be made, you can deal with a music biopic here and there.

Belfast? YES. Being The Ricardos? NO. Anyways what’s your point? Isn’t this an unpopular opinions thread. Or do you find it difficult to digest if anyone expresses his/her opinion? Anyways cannot expect anything else from you. Your irrational behaviour on this forum is very well known.

Even at the risk of making myself unpopular here, Bardo was … kind of solid? Definitely better made and directed than many other contenders I have seen this year, even some favored to be nominated for International Feature. Either the final editing process helped a lot or people were really overreacting after Venice.

For Your Consideration:
The Banshees of Inisherin in ALL categories, including:
- Best Picture
- Best Director
- Best Actor (Colin Farrell)
- Best Supporting Actor (Brendan Gleeson)
- Best Supporting Actor (Barry Keoghan)
- Best Supporting Actress (Kerry Condon)
- Best Supporting Actress (Sheila Flitton)
- Best Original Screenplay

I agree.

Bardo is a damn good movie. The direction, cinematography, and sound design are all outstanding.

After one viewing I’m not sure it succeeds as the magnum opus Iñárritu seems to have set out to make, but it didn’t deserve to be dragged through the mud.

It was the final editing. The Cut we saw is Way Shorter. The Venice Cut was Way Longer(my friend saw it in Venice

I agree. I add Roma. Roma is the most boring thing I saw in my entire life but Perfect Cinematography

The Irishman, Spencer, Lost Doll, The power of the Dull and Nomadland were all terribly and unbearably boring. Roma was even better

I wonder if maybe y’all just can’t handle the pacing? Because literally all of those are at worst good and at best amazing (I know this is the unpopular opinion thread; i’m just positing whether or not your issue is really with the films themselves or with the demand of the films attention-wise due to the slow but actually effective pacing).

Once there was only Dark. If you ask me, the Light's winning.

In my personal experience with Roma: It was the subject matter. Not interested at all in his childhood. And he born in a Very Rich Family so even more boring to me. I don’t have problems with slow pacing. Silence(Martin Scorsese) is One of My Favorites Ever

I absolutely hate Everything Everywhere All at Once. It’s one of the most tiring and annoying film I’ve ever seen in my life. I really don’t get any of the hype and none of its actors deserve any kind of praise imo.

I didn’t hate it. But I think it was only 6/10. Overrated movie
