  1. The lead acting awards basically play out like the VFX or sound awards. Whatever has the "most" acting wins every single time. Not the best. Actress is usually better than Actor with this (I mean that 2015-2020 stretch for actor was just terrible) but still Stone won because she had the showiest performance here out of all the actresses.
  2. Tbf, Nolan has hung out with Spielberg a buncha times and even done private screenings for him. Probably closer to a friend to him at this point.
  3. I think Gladstone deserved the award but some of the comments I've seen about her loss are just so stupidly performative. I just saw a tweet that said Gladstone didn't win because they didn't want her to be talking about Palestine (what???). Like cmon, this happens every year.
  4. I thought Poor Things wasn't very good but wouldn't call it artsy fartsy. A relatively populist film for the type of film it is honestly.
  5. Eh, The Creator should've won VFX. Happy for Lame tho. She deserved the award in 2021.
  6. If you read what I said, it's pretty obvious it has nothing to do with liking or disliking it. Serious and powerful films can be joked about. Has happened countless times before.
  7. I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about the way I see people saying you can't joke about the movie or it's weird seeing it put in a montage alongside Barbie or whatever.
  8. The strangest thing I've seen about the Oscars this year the weird pedestal I've seen people put Zone of Interest on. Yeah, it's a film dealing with a horrific part of human history but it's literally just a movie.
  9. This is the first time since I started following the Oscars that my favourite film of the year is going to sweep the ceremony (I guess Mad Max Fury Road kinda counts too) but I still don't give a shit about watching this lol.
  10. Tbf the idea of a Titanic 2 sounds so creatively bankrupt that I doubt it would win anythjng. I do think Avatar 5 is a guaranteed BP winner tho and should be the highest grossing BP winner of all time.
  11. Almost 40% drop on Sunday looks a little big. I know late night shows are probably not going to do as well due to runtime but I think it should be much closer to 30% drop.
  12. It's pretty obvious Dune is doing better when people don't have work to deal with. Friday is surely going higher than that number.
  13. Said this about part 1 on this forum but there's stuff in this that's reminiscent of South Indian cinema. More filmmakers need to do the main character walks in slow mo as everyone else looks at them in awe/terror bit.
  14. Idk, I think his movies suck but they are generally well-liked enough for me to believe this will probably have good audience reception and legs.
  15. Legendary and WB literally announced a month ago that theyre going to make the new Tom Cruise film together. We don't know what went on behind the scenes but we know for a fact that they didn't cut ties. Also co-financing is literally the same as co-producing. If you funded 25% of a movie, you're one of the producers of the movie.
  16. And that doesn't matter. WB will distribute and co-produce any future Dune films. Same with Monsterverse (as they did when Legendary was with Universal).
  17. Why would the movie not increase from Dune 1 OS?? It's looking at a $400 mil-ish gross OS at least.
  18. The entire movie is basically action lol. And you've never been right a about what audiences think about a movie. Wrong this time too.
  19. Eh, really depends on the film he makes. If he makes another big blockbuster action flick, it's gonna probably make $500 mil minimum.
  20. The theatrical gross is not supposed to cover every single cost of the movie. The movie will make a shitton of money in ancillaries.
