The 91st Academy Awards (February 24, 2019) TV Show • Page 31

Hereditary and Eighth Grade were two of my favorites that could have easily had nominations in a few categories. First Reformed was also really good, but I have some issues with the people involved that I didn’t really know about when I saw it, so that recommendation comes with some reservation.

There’s also stuff like Shoplifters and Burning that is still sort of outside the realm of what gets nominated, but maybe that will change at some point.

And I would have loved Sorry to Bother You to be in the mix too.

 

I honestly keep forgetting that it isn’t on the list.

 

I listed a few icymi

 

I would watch all these movies

 

Best foreign is basically locked to Roma because of the BP nom right?

 

Probably, but it’s a damn shame because Cold War is incredible.

 

Yep, it’s fantastic. I haven’t been able to see Shoplifters yet but I would have loved for one of those two to get some recognition with everything else Roma could/probably will win but oh well

 

also I suck and haven’t seen any of the doc nominees yet but I refuse to believe that all five of them are better than Won’t You Be My Neighbor

 

Of the four previous times a movie was nominated for both Best Foreign Language and Best Picture, they all got the Foreign Language win. If Roma wins both, it’d be the first.

 

I’m gonna be so shocked if that happens but here for it

 

Minding the Gap is better

(I love both)

 

While that may be true, I meant that it must have been deserving of atleast a nom

Definitely keen on seeing Minding the Gap, Free Solo and Hale County though, just been slacking

 

Yep Minding The Gap, and WYBMN? Were both incredible. I would give the edge to the former.

Both made me more emotional than a film has in years.

 

I have a feeling if Roma gets best foreign film then they won’t give it BP.

 

The Favourite doesn’t have a chance, right? Have not been following

 

would really like to see Minding the Gap but have no idea how i'm supposed to see it. documentaries never show in theaters around me

 

Hulu's the only option really

 

Probably only original screenplay

 

2019 Independent Spirit Awards: ‘If Beale Street Could Talk’ Triumphs
this is basically everyone's ideal Oscars minus no The Favourite

 

I wanted Minding the Gap to win until I saw Free Solo last night. Absolutely stunning movie, though both are really great. I'd be psyched if either won.

 

alright, who got the Hulu hookup? lol

 

There was a special deal in Jan or Dec I think $1.99 a month. You missed out fam

 

They dropped the price of Hulu recently, though. $6 per month for the regular plan.

 

Minding the Gap was the best movie I saw last year.

I’ve seen 5 of the best picture noms (Star, Rhapsody, Panther, Klan, and Roma). Of those 5 Roma was hands down the best, IMO. Capital F, film. Rhapsody was one of the worst movies I saw last year, wasn’t even crazy about Maleks performance. I’m not a big Marvel/comic fan so I enjoyed Black Panther, just didn’t love it. A Star is Born was excellent as well, extremely impressed with Bradley Cooper as a director. Basically aced everything that BR didn’t. Sam Elliot was fantastic. Blackkklansmen was fine? Funny and well shot but that Boots Riley review stuck in my head after it was done. Can you separate the movie from what actually happened? Leaves me with a weird taste.
