I’d like to see Bill Nighy win for Best Actor.

Bill Nighy was excellent in LOVE ACTUALLY...

This is the first year in a long time that I’ve watched a best picture nominee and this year, I’ve actually seen two of them! Top Gun and Western Front. Both excellent. Western Front, I watched in German with subtitles, really blew me away. Very powerful film.

“Everything Everywhere All at Once” is gay. I would not have seen it if I had known that. It was a very entertaining movie in spite of its irritating pandering to the Rainbow Mafia . Seems like most movies made now have some propaganda poison pill added to pay tribute to their Commie overlords.

It would be nice to see Top Gun: Maverick win but of course it has no chance whatsoever as it’s too American.

I haven’t seen Elvis, but heard it was woke-ish.

No I haven’t seen it, but I heard it got bad reviews. I’m just waiting for them to make a movie about Trump and Melania.

Also from Banshees, note that Brendon Gleeson and Barry Keoghan were nominated for Best Supporting Actor, as was Kerry Condon for Best Supporting Actress. If you are a fan of great acting, watch it for that. It took me awhile to settle into the story; it's a mixed up Irish stew of a small village comedy of manners, belonging, leaving, friendship, madness, tragedy, comedy, and I suppose a bit of everything else. Just call it Irish and roll with it. The acting carries it. It's also completely non-woke.

Yes great flick if a little dark. I'm not a big Colin Farrell fan but he was great in this.

Women directors spurned?

Maybe they should make better movies!

Will have to check out “Living” when I get time. It sounds a bit like “The Remains of the Day” with Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson. I thought that movie was quite good.

“I haven’t seen Elvis, but heard it was woke-ish.”

It took time to acknowledge the African-American influences on Elvis and his music.

But that is factually accurate not woke. It’s not trying to invent some PC history that didn’t exist.

For the last 3 or 4 years, I haven’t seen any of the pictures that have been nominated for an Academy Award. This year, I have happened to watch 2 of them: ‘Top Gun Maverick’ and ‘Avata-The Way of Water’.

I do hope that ‘Top Gun’ gets it, but somehow I think one of the artsy-fartsy woke films will get the nod.
