GIRL, WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT SHOULDER?
That's my main gripe with The Edge of Seventeen -- In what universe can that girl be considered a social outcast?
Certainly not this one.
... Movie's good though.
(no spoilers btw, it's stated right at the beginning of the movie)

2000: Gladiator, fantastic win. "Are you not entertained?" Academy: "ah fuck it, yes we are"
2001: A Beautiful Mind, respectable win but FOTR deserved it more.
2002: Chicago, never seen it and never heard about it since so TTT probably deserved it more.
2003: ROTK, great and historic win for being the one and only time a fantasy won and will probably the last time a major epic will in BP.
2004: Million Dollar Baby, kinda forgettable but not an embarrassing win IMO.
2005: Never seen Crash but it seems to be the BP winner everyone loves to hate the most
2006: The Departed is one of my favorite movies of all time so great win
2007: No Country for Old Men is another favorite and glad it won over the boring as fuck There Will Be Blood
2008: Never seen Slum Dog Millionaire
2009: A weak year thus The Hurt Locker winning, would've preferred District 9.
2010: The King's Speech, never seen it.
2011: The Artist = LOL
2012: Argo is a good win but it doesn't make Ben Affleck an expert on the region. His infamously dumb meltdown on Real Time battered his image for me.
2013: 12 Years a Slave is a good win but its a 1 and done deal for me, too fucked for repeat viewings
2014: Birdman, enjoyable and first superhero movie to win an Oscar!
2015: Spotlight, good respectable win
2016: Only one of the nominees I've seen this year is Hell and High Water(the only one that really appealed to me) and I get the distinctive feeling that its far too entertaining to win.
Infernal Affairs is a better movie than The Departed
Also, LOTR winning all 3 years was impossible to begin with. If I could choose only 1 though, I'd give it to FOTR.
Whiplash should have won 2014

At the bare minimum, a movie should be barred from entering the top 250 until 1 year after release.
But you know, not that the top 250 is actually relevant anymore (it used to be, a decade+ ago)
In the last 10 years, dozens of old movies got kicked out unceremoniously from the list, replaced with recent ones and a handful of Indian movies which no one watched outside of India

If Avengers 4 is marketed as the "End of all ends" of the saga from 2008 to 2019...
I can't even begin to imagine the Chinese opening

Can Star Wars take home its first oscar since Empire Strikes Back in 1980?
Visual Effects might happen, although I think the Academy will give it to Hacksaw Ridge.

Tonight's episode was possibly the best episode this show has ever put out

21 movies on my list for now, I still need to see Juno too.
My #1 is a bit of a cheat because of US release dates
It would win its original release year date as well

FYC
Marion Cotillard didn't win an oscar for this for nothing. Rarely featured in "2007 movies" lists even though it won 2 oscars (it's a French movie, probably that's why)
If only 1 person watches Timecrimes because of this post I'll be happy.

When I went to the theaters in December I told my friend after seeing the xXx trailer: Just you watch, this will explode in China. Got everything they love.
Well, I was right.
Is the movie any good though? I mean, mainly the action scenes?

China just loves them some Donnie Yen + Vin Diesel + Tony Jaa action!

Christ this show is good right now. One of the best I'm currently watching, without a doubt.
And it started so weak and generic... What a reversal.
Sadly, no one is watching anymore. Burned off too many viewers with Season 1. It's gonna get canceled I bet

I saw Arrival yesterday.
In case it's #2, I'm sorry Arrival fans. It would have made my top....
And won

A movie with an 8.3 average rating on RT is on our forum's best-of list. Shocker!
More like, the last 3 movies out of 5 are animated

BOT really does have an animation boner
