Man people are really lost when they start holding up CC wins as the end all be all

The shorts as usual

GO DAMY GOOOOOO

So I guess this stupid Billie Eilish thing isnt going away, huh

She wasn’t. She was saying dunkirk 2 wouldnt even be nominated.

The stats being thrown around here are laughably inconsistent. So Green Book is why Once is a lock to win because it won GG but nevermind that it lost WGA. And citing 2 movies that won BP as a precedent for Once. If anything you are making an argument for Parasite.

Yup laughing at the folks clutching their stats.

Parasite doesnt need “backlash” against 1917 to be Moonlight. It just needs people to like it better. Its preferential ballot. What Parasite needs to do is rally all the not 1917 vote. The difference in winning could be a Once or Irishman voter putting Parasite 2 instead of 3.

The problem with that is that Parasite in no way resembles 3 Billboards which had massive backlash. Parasite is way closer to Moonlight.

This thing is like AACTA. Too many people take it too seriously for how little impact it has. I mean they snubbed Spike Lee lol

Wow! Great win!

And all is right in the world. 1917 is #2 at worst.

Imagine thinking 1917 is only going to win 2 awards lol. The irony of talking about stats all the time and not looking at the correlation between best director winners and number of oscars won.

Roma – won BD – Won 3 Oscars
The Shape of Water – Won BD – Won 4 Oscars
Revenant – Won BD – Won 3 Oscars
BirdMan – Won BD – Won 4 Oscars
La La Land -…[Read more]

Going down the Mendes ship but the last time I did that Once lost PGA.

The last little womens all flopped at oscars so confused about how they typically love the story.

lol Once is a lock now because it won CC? lol Below the line nominations don’t have names attached so no one is going to know who Barabra Lee is.

Hacksaw Ridge won sound mixing and that obviously wasnt anywhere close to being a frontrunner for BP. 1917 has sound mixing and sound editing along in a walk.

I had no idea Joaquin’s natural hair color was green.

It lost Globe despite leading noms and CC.

This is the Oscars, not the MTV Movie Awards.

So what explains Marriage Story flopping? It couldnt even match some of the previous David O Russell ACTING joints. Baumbach was never in consideration for director. MS was seen as frontrunner for screenplay pre critics phase and that fell by the wayside. Then ScarJo and Driver flopped.
