The 6th Annual BOFFY Awards: The Official Ceremony.

[Jake Gittes]

Eh.

 

Get Out is fine but tbh I think of it as a really good social satire and a decent horror movie kinda awkwardly stitched together. Find it pretty telling that most people I've seen excessively praise it usually bring up bits like "I would have voted for Obama a third time" and the like and nothing from the final third, other than the admittedly brilliant police siren moment.

I would guess less people on this forum saw Coco than Dunkirk/Get Out since it's probably predominantly single male people on this forum.

 

I wanted to see Coco and I'm sure it's quite lovely, but I unfortunately didn't get around to it. And that damn Frozen short.

that Frozen short was removed in week 3, you have no excuse

I think we should shutdown the funniest poster category because we are obviously not making good decisions there.

An interesting side note:

 

For the five years that the BOFFIES have run, the Best Picture winner at the Oscars was nominated for Best Picture at the BOFFIES, but never won the actual BOFFY. Bad news for Get Out? Good news for Shape or Billboards?

That's yet another reason why I haven't had the balls to predict a Get Out win: it just seems too cool for the Academy, even with the influx of younger members in the last couple years.

2016: La La Land

2015: Inside Out

Top 25

2017: Dunkirk

A Nolan movie has yet to win a BOFFY, although he won his first BOFFY today for director.

another year of splits. another year proving that gravity is the real mvp.

I had my finals during week 3.

 

I made an attempt during Christmas time to see it with @Deep Wang but the times didn't work out. After that, I was unavailable to see a movie until I returned back to D.C. and it was out of most theaters by then.

This guy who won couldn't even hold on to a 2x ratio and he's still funniest somehow. Standards are dropping man.

The Gosquad right now.

I usually think he's great but he had by far the least interesting performance in the movie.

Gotta say also, the worst winner is TGS for Epic Run. Yeah, it was a good run, but Get Out was so much more impressive to me since it was an R-rated horror film

 

(Also helps that Get Out is a good movie lol)

i agree the third act could've been improved. a more thorough explanation of how the cotton got in his ears would've made the movie better and more worthy of an award.

i disagree just looking at their runs. get out had a better than expected opening and good drops but greatest showman had a rubbish opening and insanely impressive drops. a movie that opened to 33mil and a movie that opened to 8mil are gonna end up around the same total that's pretty good.

btw Pink how relieved are you that #BullyPinkSZN is over? Twas a long winter

Would it really have been so painful for Peele to try have LEGITIMATE hypnosis in his movie? 

 

The sunken place isn't even real. Took me way out.
