That dude looks exactly like Fassbinder
Apparently he had a mental breakdown and went into an asylum after recording his only album.

Let’s hope it gets as messy as this again!
I still don’t believe this was a complete accident. Someone knowingly sent that poor old man out there with the wrong envelope.

I know you hate it, but I think it's completely insane that Ad Astra didn't get a visual effects nom. Probably the best CGI I've ever seen.

Totally agree with you on that. As much as the movie wasn't for me, I adore the visuals. The CGI is insanely good.

Fucking tough year for predictions and betting. I just finished my ballot but I'm not at all happy about it.

Nice to see Brad Pitt up there, but I wanted Hopkins to get it. He was great in The Young Pope
