Oscars 2025 • Page 28

This has backfired. On the metro home getting a lecture about how lucky I am to have a good mum

 

update since I’ve seen them all

Nickel Boys
The Brutalist
Anora
Dune 2
A Complete Unknown
Conclave
I’m Still Here
The Substance
Wicked
Emilia Perez

 

It started out so well too. She watches the exact real-estate show from the same couch position, I was doing a lot of pointing.

 

If they don’t also honor Lynch, I’ll be so disappointed.

 

Mum asked me if hard truths is going to win the Oscar
No I dont think it's even nominated
Well he should of given it an ending. She could've got hit by a train or something.

 

Played catch-up on some of the BP nominees this week, including The Brutalist (beautiful to look at, but man, I could not get on this movie's wavelength), A Complete Unknown (had a great time!), and Nickel Boys (astonishing), so here's my ballot:

1. Anora
2. Nickel Boys
3. A Complete Unknown
4. Dune Part 2
5. Conclave
6. Wicked
7. The Substance
8. The Brutalist

Haven't seen Emilia Perez or I'm Still Here. Might try to check one of them out today.

 

1. Nickel Boys
2. Anora
3. The Brutalist
4. A Complete Unknown
5. Dune Part Two
6. Conclave
7. Wicked
8. The Substance

 

Should we watch Emilia Perez today, Pat?

 

won’t be doing this

i’d like to see i’m still here but my friend hasn’t been able to add it to the plex yet and i doubt i make it to a theater

 

yeah, there’s no point in checking EP if you haven’t by now, everyone’s moved on from that bullshit

 

I only recommend watching Emilia Perez if you have Covid brain fog.

 

feel better man

 

this is the only oscar i care about

 

So many nominees I haven’t seen.

 

What is the consensus on Conclave?

 

Good movie. Loved the mood and use of color throughout the film. Won’t speak on the ending in case you want to watch, but I think people will either find it interesting or somewhat absurd.

 

No I saw it and really enjoyed it. Ending was definitely interesting and I still don’t know how I feel about it. Was just curious what others here think of it. I’ve unfortunately only seen that and Dune out of the BP noms.

 

excellent acting and a beautiful cast, it's hard because the banality is the point but there were definitely times where I was like come on it's been so long

 

I personally liked the ending but it did feel a bit out of left field—which is maybe the point.

it’s not even close to my fav of the noms though

 

very entertaining easily digestible middle brow film with an airport novel plot that has some good performances and cool shots.

 

We’re feeling like it’s probably The Brutalist or Conclave for BP?
