When you suddenly see all these posts praising Moss *now* even though she just had the film role of a lifetime last year and none of these same people noticed, because the systems of distribution of quality films are in fact broken and there's a pervasive mindset that if it's not #1 at the box office, it isn't interesting or valuable

No Time To Die | October 8 2021 | 82% on RT | RIP Sean Connery
Jake Gittes replied to Neo's topic in Box Office Discussion
Evidently the long runtime is an indication that this is gonna have the scope and depth of Lawrence of Arabia and The Irishman -
Yeah, they really do. All of them save for Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, Taxi Driver, New York New York, Raging Bull, The King of Comedy, After Hours, his segment in New York Stories, Goodfellas, Cape Fear, The Age of Innocence, Casino, The Aviator, Shutter Island, Hugo, The Wolf of Wall Street...

Creed III | March 3, 2023 | MBJ will direct
Jake Gittes replied to TMP's topic in Box Office Discussion
Creed II was just too basic. Can't say I'm interested in this unless they get Coogler back, which is unlikely. Or unless he goes to Russia and wins the current cold war after growing a beard and running up and down mountains -
Adams didn't break out until she was 30, Ronan and Winslet have both been ubiquitous since their teenage years. Which tbh is probably its own Oscar obstacle because you become such a known quantity so quickly and you a neither a star-is-born nor yet a veteran. Wouldn't surprise me if Ronan, like Winslet, won in a weak year for a forgettable movie simply because the overriding sentiment becomes "ok let's just give it to her already and be done with it".
