This is all leading up to one big Alfred tantrum when Roma takes best picture.

Jesus, that feels like first-ballot wins on both.

I haven't watched Roma yet, but that feels like the solid-est NYFCC winner slate in many years.

Also, I am reasonably certain that none of that top 6 outside of Regina King will turn into an awards season steamroller.
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Thursday, 29 November 2018 18:41 (seven years ago)
I put that in print so I could ruefully quote it downthread in two months.
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.),
Wait -- don't you meant the opposite? Grant, Hawke, Schrader, etc will come up again, King won't.
― I like queer. You like queer, senator? (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 29 November 2018 18:42 (seven years ago)
I meant after the crix awards have had their say. I don't see that group making an unbroken streak of wins during the Golden Globes/BFCA/Oscar portion of our tour.
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Thursday, 29 November 2018 18:43 (seven years ago)
I actually do see Regina King making a pretty clean sweep though.
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Thursday, 29 November 2018 18:44 (seven years ago)
Most importantly, A Star Is Born shut the fuck out!
yes, that makes sense xxpost

he's all "it's Glenn Close's turn"
It can still be her turn at the Oscars. Especially if the critics groups continue to leave the middlebrow field open to her.

Apparently the closest calls the whole meeting were First Reformed for picture (which, surprising given the speed it was announced) and Yuen for supporting actor.
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Thursday, 29 November 2018 19:08 (seven years ago)
Yuen can be my Best Support.

He's very compelling and sexy. The role ultimately bored me.

I actually do want to see The Green Fog. The others range from sounding potentially rewarding (Let it Fall), to interesting-sounding-in-theory (Jeannette) to yucky Mom and Dad).
― Timothée Charalambides (cryptosicko), Monday, 3 December 2018 00:31 (seven years ago)
Also, its maybe a little surprising that Waters didn't really go for Boots Riley's grotesque, hysterical Sorry to Bother You but I'm guessing that received too much acclaim for his liking.

oh please, he's a populist. the movie just wasn't that good
As the recently-bumped poll thread on Waters' picks from earlier years reminded me (after I posted here), this is true. This year's list just looked particularly obscure in a way that I suspected was willful.
― Timothée Charalambides (cryptosicko), Monday, 3 December 2018 02:43 (seven years ago)

I don't particularly believe in "weak years." More people are souring on trad linear narratives, bcz as I've noticed for awhile, It's All Been Done.
KJB will be happy that someone else liked the Nico movie. Waters has an extra spot open now since there won't be any more Woody Allen films.
