Ad Astra is a Box Office flop unfortunately so hope of any major nominations is down the drain I guess.

This was very undeserving tbh.

It’s not that I didn’t like it. I just found it to be really pointless like OUATIH. I honestly expect better from Scorcese and Tarantino. Similar to Spielberg taking the formulaic route for the past two decades, these old white men aren’t the groundbreaking filmmakers they once were. People like Joon-Ho, Wang, Matsoukas, Eggers, Mendes, and even the Safdie brothers in the same crime genre, are actually doing something different. They are taking risks and bringing cinema into a new direction. They deserve some recognition now. Scorcese and crew already had their heyday and it will always be regarded as a golden age in cinema, but their time has passed and its time to move forward. Evolve or dissolve

You have an amazing point but Scorsese is best and most consistent filmmaker alive(quality wise) and perhaps there isn’t much of him left unfortunately so…

Exactly. He has done this half a dozen times now and it’s tired. And I have seen nearly his entire filmography and The Irishman doesn’t stand out at all. Wolf of Wall Street and Silence at least were a divergence for him.

It’s not like he hasn’t made other genres but mob genre is his strongest forte,it’s like Spielberg making war genre.These actors especially De Niro and Pacino are legends of mob movies.I expect A plus from The Irishman as a movie.

It seems you have seen it and you didn’t like it which is fine.

I think overtime, audiences will begin to see the film for what it truly is

Woah,dude maybe you haven’t seen Scorsese movies and Scorsese mob movie.This is best filmmaker alive making movie of his strongest genre.

Means Streets
Goodfellas
Casino
The Departed
All these movies are instant classics especially(Goodfellas).

You may dislike mobster genre but The Irishman is getting same raves as Marriage Story and Parasite.

Netflix pushing most for The Irishman makes sense.Oscars or no Oscars,it is going to be this year’s best movie for sure(I mean Scorese doing mobster genre with this mobster movie legends.Who are we kidding?).

Joker is absolutely destroying BOXOFFICE.

It is getting BP nomination now for sure.

Joaquin’s performance is universally acclaimed by both critics and audiences.

Oh My God,Joaquin really coming close to a sweep.

He is ticking all the boxes as of now.

Joker has made $543 millions in just 10 days.

$800-900 millions is looking possible,maybe even $1 billion is possible if it does well in China.

Once Upon A Time in Hollywood was good,earned so much and got universal acclaim.

But does it deserve BP?Hell no and this is coming from a Tarantino fanboy.

Best way to predict Lead Actor Oscar is to see who can and cannot win Best Actor in Drama at Globes.

Right now there are 3 names who can win it and they are
-Joaquin Phoenix
-Adam Driver
-Antonio Banderas

The winner at Oscars will be out from these 3 actors.

Joker is expected to earn $61-62 million in it’s second weekend.It’s initial projections were $45 millions.This is just a 37% drop.

As expected,general audiences loved this movie and this one will have legs on box office.

I don’t have the same confidence in GG. They appear to have cleaned up their act in recent years but outside of predicting who Oscar is going to annoint their eyes remain largely on this: $$$$$
Oh wait…..Joker…

Golden Globes have been very accurate in awarding Best Actor in Drama to future Lead Actor winner at Oscars.

Whoever thought Rami isn’t winning for Bohemian Rhapsody was person of good taste and right mind but thing is those who thought same after Golden Globes 2019 were just delusional.

This category will be sorted on whoever wins Best Actor-Drama next year in January.
