couldn't find a 5th supporting actress, eh
― a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 21:00 (seven years ago)
Considering we got two leads in supporting actress....

couldn't get Binoche in, fie on you
As happy as I'm going to be to see BlacKkKlansman anywhere when it comes to the Oscars, smh at Adam Driver being the only one from that cast widely cited.

Son of Denzel did not give a particularly noteworthy performance imho, Eric
you shd've been more upset when Stallone got all the Creed luster
― a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 21:11 (seven years ago)
I was talking more about the many other supporting options, mainly.
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 21:17 (seven years ago)
Washington was terrific, certainly better than Viggo in Mook's Honor.
― Your sweetie-pie-coo-coo I love ya (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 21:22 (seven years ago)
not as good as Lakeith Stanfield in the Boots Riley joint
― a Mets fan who gave up on everything in the mid '80s (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 19 December 2018 21:30 (seven years ago)
if we'd been allowed to include five nominees, Stanfield would've been in on my ballot.

First Man fan tho I wasn't, that scene was one of the greats this year.

as someone who likes Lars more than most, the fact that Jack seems to be getting kinder notices than Nympho - or at least comparable ones - is baffling to me

xp: less of the typical (every.single.film) misogyny? LVT looking like he's near death?
― Sanpaku, Thursday, 20 December 2018 13:59 (seven years ago)
if anything Nympho did a better job of complicating / audience-implicating / problematizing / pick-your-buzzword-ing w/r/t misogyny. Jack just kinda lazily lampshades it.
― resident hack (Simon H.), Thursday, 20 December 2018 14:00 (seven years ago)
I love that lampshading monologue! It's so spot on with the MRA rhetoric, and I wasn't surprised that certain Danish reviewers took it as some very interesting questions Lars was asking without at all dealing with the context in the film.

it blocked Roma, didn't it?

Supporting players and Best Actor though.

More impressive is the foreign-film result, unless that happened because of a bait-and-switch (e.g. "you give us Shoplifters in foreign, we'll go along with Roma in best picture")
― love craptually (Eric H.), Friday, 21 December 2018 18:44 (seven years ago)

Minus the "fun," I'd argue. But it's still the season's most lauded bitchfest in any case.

still Roma
― Your sweetie-pie-coo-coo I love ya (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 21 December 2018 21:55 (seven years ago)
Minus the "fun," I'd argue
as current-release films about three absolutely awful people interacting with each other go, it's a rollicking lolfest compared to Burning

didnt u think Sacred Deer was "fun." Eric?
