When Amanda implies no one remembers who wins, she refers to the majority of the world who may remember movies and actors, but not the stats of an award race 10 years ago. And she's right. She's not referring to the 2% who's autistic about the Oscars and they're all on Twitter.

As if the entire "award race" ecosystem is not responsible for this. Other equally "populist" choices with more artistic merits being dismissed and trashed all season, so we obviously end up with an awful "movie for the people" that nobody cared to "tear down" in Best Picture.

Al final del día un director continuará haciendo películas grandes e increíbles, con o sin Oscar, y otro va directo a seguir alimentando la maquinaria Marvel o sus afines.

God bless the Oscars this year for not conceding any ground to those (glorified TV seasons compressed as) anime movies. Let's keep it that way. Forever. 🙏

There have been some truly weak and underserved nominees (King Richard, Bugonia) and winners (CODA) this decade in the Best Picture category, but F1 is definitely the worst movie that has appeared in the big category since JoJo Rabbit (2019) and Bohemian Rhapsody (2018).

As one of the current academic authorities and researchers on the art of music videos as a subject: I can tell now (as I said back then, over so much noise around it) that the superior music video of 2018 was God is a Woman by Ariana Grande. youtu.be/kHLHSlExFis?si…

Wicked: For Good Oscar campaign focus should have been Cynthia Erivo's work and song (No Place Like Home). It's the importance of Elphaba as a symbol what sells the material better. They forgot about that this second time around and partly the zero nominations are a result of it.

Since all the potential and predictable outcomes don't excite me at all, I'm confident to say that- for me- the current Oscar season already has finished with this. ♥️

Y yo juraba que Walter Martínez ya se había muerto hace años. Técnicamente ya estaba muerto cuando prostituirse con el chavismo como astuto propagandista sustituyó cualquier supuesto principio que decía representar.

This Super Bowl, we’re reimagining Mr. Rogers' iconic song “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” with the incomparable Lady Gaga. Join us behind the scenes at Shangri-La Studios, to witness the creation of this modern classic and its vital message on the importance of kindness, compassion

As someone who majored in Film studies I can tell you most people I met in college barely cared about watching old/new movies. So yes, I believe it. But considering the dumb ways many people discuss them nowadays, it's almost better if some of you wouldn't watch any movie at all.
