OT: Movies/TV Shows

Gerwig elaborated on the scene, describing it as a “fart opera” that was hit or miss depending on the audience. “We really put together this giant fart opera, and I thought it was really funny. That was not the consensus.” Houy explains that the fart opera didn’t make the final cut because it also came at an awkward point in the film: “It was in the wrong place too.”



Could've been even better though.
 
Also, I was randomly looking at the best director history recently and its gotta be the most botched category in the history of the oscars.

Scorcese on has one, and its for the Departed. Tarantino never won. Kubrick never won. Hitchkoc, Felini, Bergman, Anderson, Nolan. Nolan wasn't even nominated for Interstellar.
 
I really like the mexican wave just prior to that but even then it was a bit overdone.

Inarritu was deserving both times but I don't know that Cuaron deserved either of his. Del Toro is awesome but that movie was far from his best.
 
Ech yeah that category is truly awful now that I look at it.

Even the directors I really love all seem to win for their worst, cheesiest pics.
 
I actually don't mind the Barbie nominations, even though I'm not a big fan of the film. the Academy has to stop thinking any form of a depressing drama is true art and worthy of Oscars. Most of them are not good. Anatomy of a fall is fantastic though, as is Society of the Snow.
I'll say it again, Oppenheimer is shit. Pure shit.
 
heh that looks great.

and as much as I'm an 80s-phile i never liked the OG Roadhouse at all. kinda hated it tbh.
 
Roadhouse needed to be remade??

Like why even borrow the Roadhouse name and owe anyone from before. Just make your shitty movie with a different name. Jake looks pretty out of place in this one.
The casting was perfect in the first one despite it being a "bad movie". Swayze, Sam Elliott and one of the hottest actresses ever, Kelly lynch.
Jake doesn't seem right for this, and I wonder if they go with the cheese, like the first one did.
 
Orsen Wells didn't win for Citizen Kane.
Welles was blackballed by William Randoph Hearst, on whom the character of Charles Foster Kane was based. Hearst used his newspaper chain to savage it, and to ensure that the cinema chain he also owned would not show the film. Very few people actually had the opportunity to see the movie in its original theatrical run. It gained its fame and the lion's share of the critics' appreciation years later when shown on TV.
