People saying Winslet was the runner up twice is hilarious because we don’t have vote totals. You don’t know that.

My thrill for both actors has gone down because of bad choices in roles. It’s clear that the mainstream public likes Hardy a million times more than Fassbender and that’s because Fassbender is too cold and intense on screen to be a movie star. Hardy is intense but can be fun and playful.  Fassbender should stick to Indies.

She was co-lead.

Laura Dern is a beloved actress who was previously nominated for Oscars before her win. There is no comparison between her and Kunis. Also Dern was better in Marriage Story than Kunis was in Black Swan.

During that time the media and Kunis’s people I’m sure, were trying to build her up as the next big leading lady and since people loved the movie they liked to believe that everything about it should have been nominated. So Kunis was swept up in the hype for multiple reasons. Luckily the Oscars saw through the hype for once and left her off the…[Read more]

Loathe because Crash is a bad movie. Apparently institutional racism doesn’t exist in Crash’s universe. Not to mention that the characters are thinly drawn and poorly written. They don’t even act like humans.

Mara was a co-lead in Carol of course.

As  for Vikander, She should have been nominated and won a supporting Oscar for her role in Ex-Machina. She was good in the Danish Girl but her performance in Ex-Machina is better and more memorable.

I don’t think so. Damon’s performance never generated any heat. Damon just didn’t get the material to get a Nomination.

I didn’t officially predict then but I knew that there wasn’t a chance in hell that her OKAY performance was garnering a Nomination. It would be like giving Zazie Beetz a nomination for JOKER just because you loved the lead performance.

To be fair to Netflix Driver was never winning over Phoenix no matter how hard they pushed. Actors were raving about Phoenix performance unprompted all season. It’s just that kind of winning performance.

All award shows ratings are falling.

I am so happy that Dunkirk 2 didn’t win best picture.

I adore Phoenix’s win. I don’t have anything against the other men nominated of course but I think the right man won. Driver is a great actor and will win in the future. I don’t remotely feel bad for him because this isn’t the end of the line. He is just getting started.

You are really hurt right now aren’t you?

Observations:

The 100th remake of a film is going to have a damn near impossible time exciting voters enough to vote for it in major categories. That’s what A Star is Born and now Little Women has taught me.

Marriage Story did fade from the voters memories outside of Dern’s fun performance. The film is good but doesn’t stick to your…[Read more]

I don’t think that 1917 ever got away from the Dunkirk comparisons.

Parasite and Joker haters can go kick rocks. lol

I haven’t seen 1917 but I usually hate War movies.

I am so happy that I predicted Parasite!

Ronan is still a baby, why compare her to those actresses?
