filmlover Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 I'm so glad that all the rumors of members refusing to watch Parasite just because it was "in subtitles" ended up being smoke and mirrors. I still can't believe it pulled it off! What a worthy Best Picture win (capping off a decade with few of them). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He thought Once Upon Time in Hollywood should have won Director over Parasite because it had more locations, apparently. This SAS aftershow might be the most bizarre thing I've watched today, and that's taking into account Eminem performed Lose Yourself at the Oscars today.

He should get his own theme park Bong Joon-Ho World Ride the snowpiercer express to get around the theme park. Be terrorized by a monster in the Han River. Befriend a big pig only to watch it and its family get slaughtered and made into bacon. An escape room based on the Parasite house. Do battle with dogs in an apartment complex.

This whole Oscar show is gonna go down as one of the oddest in recent memory. The elitist approach to the presenters. The useless montages. The bizarre way the clips in some of the categories were shown like we were watching a bootleg of the ceremony. Eminem performing "Lose Yourself" because...why, exactly? I thought I was watching a fever dream at certain points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just keep it like that. When you give Oscars to a foreign film, you are signifying that this film is better than all films in the world. Now that could be true but problem is you are just awarding a one hyped foreign film while there are 10s of Foreign films every year better than Nominated/Winner Hollywood films. I don't think any of nominated film was better than Super Deluxe (Indian film) this year. There will be other Foreign language films as well.

MovieMan89 Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 This was FAR AND AWAY the most satisfied I have felt with the BP winner since ROTK and it’s not even close. Oscars have been so far departed from my personal taste for so long that I actually forgot what it was like to have your legitimate favorite film of the year win the big ones. I couldn’t be more ecstatic, Parasite is a true masterpiece. In a completely elite group of BP winners as far as I’m concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I'd keep was the montages for the actor awards, I really liked seeing multiple clips of the performances. Having the newcomers present the presenters was stupid and a waste of time; I liked how George MacKay pointed this out. Also, next year they won't be caught up in competing with the shadow of Best Original Songs past, none of the musical performances in 2021 will really have the "tough act to follow" problem and they can just chill instead of trying to be the Grammys 2.0. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what it signifies, though. It signifies the best of films released in the US/Hollywood - or more specifically, films released in at least one theatre in Los Angeles county for at least seven consecutive days, etc. Peace, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhuvan Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 India is constantly giving some of the best movies of all time but you all will never recognise that. Parasite in a way is Hollywood movie just like Roma. I agree with @charlie Jatinder , giving foreign film a best picture award means that these awards are international which they are not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outside of Eminem popping in out of nowhere and the patronising pat on the back "girl power" moment (which was more tiring than cringe tbh, espescially considering that Hildur said it all more elonquently), there wasn't as much cringe as the past two years.
