My neighbor showed Oppenheimer last week at the exact time I had a Dr. apt. Glad to know it’s a good movie, will catch it someday.

Neighbor, BTW, grew up in Hollywood, knows some movie people and has DVDs of every movie ever made. He’s a bit of a PIA egomaniac but the movies are fun.

I've only seen two nominated of the films: Barbenheimer.

I'd like to see American Fiction. I've read that it very effectively skewers the white liberal gatekeepers of the publishing industry.

We mute it 98%. Yeah they see us watching. Whatever. We like to watch the fashion. Joan rivers got us into it when she headed fashion police. I can finally watch the awards after what? 15 years. Because there’s one movie crew and director and producer that doesn’t hate us and simply put a story together.

Oppenheimer.

AMERICAN FICTION is good...I watched it in the theater...

Jeffrey Wright did a good job as the main character...

The only nominated movie I’ve seen is “The Holdovers.” It was very good!

The last time I cared about the Oscars was was the year ‘Lord of the Rings: Return of the King’ did their “clean sweep” as Stephen Spielberg called.it.

I agree...Oppenheimer did cheat on his wife...Nolan did not omit that from the film...

Nolan doesn’t do messaging and propaganda. He tells a story

THE HOLDOVERS is a good movie...

Paul Giamatti could still win...The black lady who played the cafeteria worker got the best supporting actress award...

The show just mentioned names of people who passed away...Carl Weathers was mentioned...Even Pee Wee Herman was mentioned...

Steve Martin made a joke about Michael Moore after the latter made some political speech at the Academy Awards show...

Nolan just won the Best Director award...
