There have been 24 mass shootings since 2015. None of them have occurred since joker was released. Blaming a movie for the actions of a separate human being and trying to use tragedy as a means to knock down a movie you don’t like at the Oscars makes you a terrible person. Just saying 😉
Joker was fantastic. Easily one of me favorite films/performances by an actor the last several years. Right there with Casey in Manchester by the sea
I love Joaquin Phoenix, but I’d advise my fellow fans not to get their hopes too high. He’ll most likely score a nomination, but he seems too abrasive for the Academy to actually get a win.
Roman Polanski literally raped a girl in the arse and got an Oscar, Joaquin will be fine lol
It was like 80% of people wanting him to win.
And a minority who didn’t want that.
Way more then 20% of people complained. I was on here that entire awards season lol
ReplyLet’s be real. Marriage Story is going to be another overrated average movie that the Academy loves. So boring.
*sees generic, boring social justice movie that 99% of people would rather suck start a shotgun then watch.
We found our best picture winner!!!
ReplyYeah Edgerton isn’t winning or getting nominated the year after Rami Malik swept for the exact same type of movie/performance. Fair or not that’s how this stuff works. He’s also hurt by such an early release date I feel like his movie will be forgotten.
It seems to me that every year the contender that generates the most butthurt (Leo, Casey Affleck, Gary Oldman, Rami Malik) wins the Oscar. Since the anti Joaquin stans are so against him winning it will probably happen lol
ReplyWho cares? An Oscar is an Oscar
Imagine thinking the joker promotes incels. He hates everyone and wants the world to burn. Literal purpose of his character 🤪
Are y’all selectively blind? Where is this unanimous praise? Starting MC in the mid-70s, after one festival screening that’s, to be polite, made almost completely of the demographic that would have loved it either way. When there are women in the audience, you’ll get this:
“In Joker — playing in competition here at the Venice Film Festival — Phoenix is acting so hard you can feel the desperation throbbing in his veins. He leaves you wanting to start him a GoFundMe, so he won’t have to pour so much sweat into his job again. But the aggressive terribleness of his performance isn’t completely his fault.” – TIME
*reads stanning Adam Driver
It’s insane the movie is rated lower than a lot of Marvel superhero movies. This literally is a masterpiece. I honestly know it’s opinions, but I can’t fathom how that’s even possible.
There is a pro Disney-marvel bias. Obvious by this point
Buddies, I loved OUATIH but… I agree that the hype will die… hopefully not for Brad Pitt’s performance.
I think the hype will fade but it will still be one of those movies that gets nominated across the board. I agree Brad Pitt is its only shot to win anything
Yeah Joaquin is winning, the reception that the movie and his performance are getting will be unbeatable. He’s one of the best actors alive and he’s the overdue narrative, and playing a character people like. The movie will also be a box office smash. Adam Driver ain’t topping that narrative, the academy preferred to give Mahershala Ali a 2nd Oscar in 3 years over awarding him lol
If they deserve it who cares if they’re white or black or orange
Animatronic is the exception, not the rule. No one is playing someone white men adore as much as Freddie Mercury this year.
Pheonix will suffer from genre bias + the fact that someone already won for the same role. He’ll need more than great reviews and certainly won’t make it with a 49 MC score.
I totally expect Phoenix to deliver though.
Lmao animatronic
