Klansmen was great and DEFINITELY better than Being Driven By Mr. Aragon.

The TRUE Best Picture (If Beale Street Could Talk) wasn’t even nominated. I would also say Black Panther was worthy.


And Spike didn’t win Best Director, he won Best Adapted Screenplay. He lost Best Director to Roma
“Roma” and “if Beale street could talk” are my 2 favorite films of last year.

Wouldn’t be mad if either won best picture and am glad Alphonso Cauron won best director.

I love “Boring art films”. #criteriongang

You done fukked up.:ufdup:

Now you know how the coli feels about what they call “CACs” here.

And only they would see and feel that.

Not saying I’m calling you that, but this the coli a and that’s what they do.

Personally I ain’t see or feel no white guilt. As a black man I have no reference or understanding of what that is or what it feels like, yet alone how to recognize it:sas2:

Be safe out here man.... the bill always comes due:mjlit:



The acting was great in BKM, cinematography was fine, the story was based off a real event and that was fascinating
And the score was flames

If you like Black suffering, then sure I guess Beale Street. We get too many wack movies to be honest from Hollywood.

The book is great. I enjoyed the film but moreso for how it looked than for it being great. It's not bad, but not amazing.
When I saw it, I felt it would better served to be read than watched. All those slow, elaborate scenes with the score trying to set the mood in quite literally every scene works better in your head while reading, but as a film? :snooze:

Paperboi stole the show though, I'll say that much.

He’s been overdue, that’s why he should have gotten it. But fukk the academy. I hate the fact people always centralised opinions, the academy is just one governing body over movies...
