    Nothing wrong of being a "both side" pleaser. In fact, people taking strong stance is the reason why our society has gotten so toxic nowadays. Everyone wants thing going their way, totally ignoring the fact the people are diverse in value.   

     

     

    A reasonable both sides take covers more people than either extreme, though, which is the broad point being made. Deep down, both sides know

    Jan 6th is mostly DT's fault and was a complete embarrassment, the Biden economy is booming, Biden is old AF on paper only, etc

    Still don’t see how a movie with one of the most famous fictional characters of all time and sequel to a $1b grossing movie is a harder sell than an introspective 3-hour long hard sci-fi like Dune…

     

    Agreed x 1000000. JOKER also functioned as the quasi sequel we always wanted needed and never had to Ledger's iconic take. 

     

    Joker 2 featuring Lady fucking Gaga as Harley is going to enormous.

  3. Wish I was able to catch Spider-man 2002 during the release. Inject that early 2000s nostalgia straight into my veins! That was an unforgettable opening night and weekend for a movie buff.

    post 2019 WB trailers have never reached their past heights tbf

     

    What? ELVIS had the best trailer of 2022, Barbie's entire campaign is iconic level, DUNE 2's final trailer was unreal, etc.

     

    Re: Furiosa, yeah I have no idea how this will do but I think this doesn't have near the mass appeal that some will like claim it has.

    Oppenheimer one of the few films that would win every single year (though it would be weird if it won pre-1945). Past dominant winners like Dances With Wolves, Lawrence of Arabia and Gone With The Wind too problematic for modern sensibilities. Lord of the Rings and Silence of the Lambs and any musical too genre for certain eras. One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest swept up but might not be "important" enough to win all the time. Even Titanic and Forrest Gump might get picked apart for being too goofy these days, though they did give it to Coda and EEAAO. Godfather I and II, Amadeus, Casablanca, Oppenheimer off top of my head that check every box in every era. May have forgotten something but point is Oppenheimer up there with most dominant contenders ever.

     

    Oppenheimer is the classic mass appeal prestige historical Oscar baity film, that it delivered entirely on its potential makes it an easy slam dunk for sure.
