Roma won just about every indicating category, though (except editing) . Not that that really means anything. Still it was interesting. I thought for sure it would win BP until it won FLM. Then I had my doubts but still thought it had decent odds.
I wonder if black panther had won would we be seeing all these same people saying it was a hollow victory for black and only suits our white overlords?
They’d find something to bitch about that’s for sure

Just reading twitter all day and the reaction from the black community and notable black directors and writers and they are not fuckin happy green book won.
To be clear, I adore Queen. I grew up on that band. They were one of like five artists that my parents listened to all the time. They were my mom's favorite band. My feelings about the movie have nothing to do with my feelings for the band.

Which makes total sense to me. I think it's win is stupid, too.

The love that movie got makes me think there's some kind of fix in on it. Just mind boggling.
How so? Malek is amazing in it. Rather, it doesn’t seem highly appreciated around here. Perhaps Queen was a lot more influential in Europe?
It won SO many awards and I don't know a single person who liked the movie.
Rami's was the only award it earned that didn't feel purchased.
Again, I haven't seen it. Maybe it's awesome. But the couple of 2/3 min clip/scenes that I've seen are awful.
But I'm kinda taking out of my ass here. I need to see it before I give it too much shit.
Not one person that liked the movie? That’s insane. Must be a country/region/continent thing then. I haven’t met a single person that didn’t like it, and most loved it.

Have you seen it?
I liked it more than the rest. Except maybe the favourite

You and Strat are the closest I've come. You guys liked it. The world is a weird place.
