  1. Throwing in some older tried-and-true recs. Most of these will be high on my list. Only Angels Have Wings, A Star Is Born and Barry Lyndon are in my top 10. Brief Encounter highly recommended to the fans of the Before movies.
  2. https://www.vulture.com/amp/2020/06/oscars-2021-delay-why-the-academy-made-the-wrong-call.html Yup.
  3. Sonic vs Beanpole the hottest best picture race in BOT history.
  4. An Andrew Dominik movie isn't winning an Oscar. He deserves better treatment than Sundance too anyway.
  5. Matt Damon and his mullet coming for that Best Actor Oscar.
  6. School of Rock (2003) - 7/10 *Before Sunset (2004) - 10/10 *Bullet in the Head (1990) - 7/10 *Monsieur Hire (1989) - 8/10
  7. The Bourne Identity 8/10 The Bourne Supremacy 7/10 The Bourne Ultimatum 8/10 Rewatched for the first time in 10 years. Deduct a star off each if you weren't obsessed with these movies in your early teens.
  8. Yeah I was left surprisingly cold by it too, though not quite that cold. Hope this doesn't discourage you from checking out The Young Girls of Rochefort though. That might be top 10 of all time for me.
  9. The Redux cut is worse though I guess if you want more of the ending you'll get it. But it adds almost nothing necessary or important.
  10. "Friendship" that is formed entirely on the white man's terms, don't forget.
  11. Surely this will only put the lesser-seen films at an even greater disadvantage than they're already at? Rewarding big #s of points with even more points works for summer game which is a test of knowledge but it really doesn't here, imo. It's just gonna turn this into much more of a popularity contest.
  12. idk. they listed 56 films, three times the size of a typical competition line-up (including three other animated films besides Soul). and that's not counting movies that were set to compete but opted for next year instead. maybe da 5 bloods just isn't there because it's not gonna be playing any other festivals or theaters and doesn't need the prestige boost for its netflix release.
