    The part where baby Nick Frost says that he can’t die got a laugh out of me

    Someone pointed out to me that they were Jojo's drawings, which makes way more sense.

    impressive that Waititi was able to make a satire about the nazis feel as toothless and second-hand embarrassing as an SNL Trump sketch

    didn’t think it was possible but Joker has some competition for the worst BP nom

    smaller margin of quality between joker and 1917 than joker and this

    jojo is at least decent, as much as it could’ve been way better

    Joker was a bad superhero movie. There have been many and there will be many more. Jojo Rabbit is an affront to basic taste and decency.

    gonna have to disagree with you there

    1917 was just alright but way better than I expected and this was shockingly bad

    I didn't think I'd dislike this as much as I did. It and Joker are close, but they're bad for different reasons

    grateful all the fucking time Supporter

    Eh, I still really liked this movie, & love Taika in general, so I'm happy that he got one of those shiny statues. *shrug*

    Finally watched this. It had no business winning adapted screenplay, and shouldn’t have even gotten close to a best picture nom, but overall I thought it was fine. Unlike fellow undeserving BP nom Joker, at least its heart was in the right place. But Waititi has done, and will do, better.

    I mean I think a ton of people who did not like it have very valid reasons for it

    Yeah ignore that, I was running on like two hours of sleep when I posted that and was shocked when I read through the thread.

    I realize this has super sensitive subject material and I can see how that would rub people the wrong way. If that’s not the reason someone doesn’t like it though I can’t think of why they wouldn’t, I thought it was super funny and well-acted and got really profound towards the end too. Thomasin McKenzie really impressed me after never seeing her before and I hope she gets a ton of work after this

    I thought this was sweet. Not as good as I was hoping for. Didn’t realize the Hitler thing was gonna be as small a part of the movie as it seemingly was.
