Monica and Cynthia getting nods is all I really care about. Those two performances were each outstanding and neither is talked about enough.

Do you agree?
I'm watching movies from 2023 at the moment, and I can't wait to get to the big Oscar movies from last year.

Fuck you and trag
What. I can like Bob Dylan and not have to love a Chalamet movie about him.
Yes. No. Whatever. I dont know anymore
He does seem to have done a great job at it. Receiving a lot of praise.

I have not seen any of these movies, but going by the press and the odds, I think so too.

Yes, but I’ve only seen three of this year’s nominees, and those three are arguably not up to snuff with several from last year.

But ultimately, this is stupid, cuz it’s just an arbitrary line in the sand which films fall into which year.

I actually think a year is just about the best way possible to separate between movies, or anything else in life. One more year around the sun.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
