I only care about The Oscars because it means another On Cinema Oscar Special. I might have to do another marathon leading up to it.

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.

The correct choice is Tar. That’s a masterpiece. They will give it to EEOAO because it’s a fun light feel good movie.
But the real movie is Tar.
But the real movie is Tar.

Were there a lot of visual effects in Top Gun: Maverick? It seems odd that it got a nomination for that. I thought it's whole deal was that everything was practical.

lots lots of special effects. The fact that you dont notice them is a testament on how good they are.

As much as I like Argentina 1985, it's wild that they didn't nominate Decision to Leave. It would've gotten my vote for International and also Editing
Good point about Top Gun's visual effects but I'd give that to Avatar 2

I feel Arg 1985 is fine, but its main strength its the theme, which the oscars just love itThe Argonaut wrote:To be fair, I've yet to see Argentina 1985 or Close.VinylGuy wrote:i should watch this one, seems its way better than Argentina, 1985.The Argonaut wrote:I'll give my international feature vote to The Quiet Girl (Ireland)
