They may as well give the media an award for most FAKE NEWS propaganda. CNN and MSNBC would win every year.

I’m sort of amazed how out of touch I am. Very little of this rings a bell. I used to be a fanatic about movies.

I haven’t watched these awards in decades.

I thought Dune sucked. But I could never manage to get through the book either.

Power of the Dog was unwatchable. I got through maybe 30 minutes of it. I turned to my wife and asked if she thought it was any good. We both agreed that we did not have the time in our lives to give up another 90 minutes or so in order to “know” the movie.

This year the movies sucked. (It is understandable considering the lock downs.) TV is just now starting to come back to life.

The woke flavor of everything will eventually pass when the accountants tell these idiot studio heads that money makes their world go round. And lousy “fit the peg” racial and sexual actors cannot make up for lousy scripts and bad direction.

The writing has been horrific. The circle jerk entertainment business has lost touch with the marketplace. When Marvel and DC comics provide inspiration for the top products...you know there is trouble out there.

Great comments by Sam Elliot on the Power of the Dog. He’s getting slammed big time for it.

I’m surprised that THE BOY BEHIND THE DOOR didn’t get nominated, since the pre-pubic writer/director team created the pedo child trafficking psychos as white MAGA talk radio listening Trump voters.

The Power of the Dog is the sort of arty crap that cleans up at the Oscars. I'm surprised that Denzel is nominated for Macbeth. He's a great actor but not a blank verse speaker and was terrible as Macbeth (same goes for Frances McDormand as Lady M).

The last time I was in a movie theater was in 2017 to see the Christian film “ I Can Only Imagine.” Going to the movies used to be fun, and then Hollywood decided that the main goal of most films should be to preach and not entertain.

Who cares? Oscar isn’t about movies anymore; it’s all about the narcissists and their politics.

I think as regards ‘Dune’, part II will tell if it was great or not.

IIRC there was some criticism here about how Timothee Chalamet was kind of a lame soyboy type, but that missed the entire point- he goes *into* ‘the desert a coddled, protected child (albeit one with serious training in mental and martial arts), he comes OUT of the desert as a mesiah figure, and a badass; it’s kind of the ‘Hero’s Journey’ thing. What all the movies and TV gets wrong is that he is supposedly about 14 or 15 when thrust into exile, not 18 or 20.
