i dont understand how joker got a best adapted screenplay nom. on top of the script being a weaker part of the movie, what source was it adapted from? its like a completely new story

leaving out sandler for best actor is criminal. and zero noms for the farewell?


i saw it too :pachaha:
It’s based on a comic book character therefore it’s adapted. Lol anything that’s not an original screenplay with original characters is an adaptation

He wasn’t

Pesci and Pacino were superior to him in that movie.

A24 got major snubs this year. Waves and Uncut Gems not getting anything? Waves should have at least gotten Cinematography.

Lighthouse took its nod and yeah Uncut Gems not getting anything is just :beli:

The rest are about what I expected. Surprised to see Todd Phillips gets nod for Director. Nice!

Gerwig did a great job on Little Women (yeah I saw it) but her getting snubbed is a numbers crunch. I'd have a tough time arguing she's definitely deserving over any of the current nominees.

Also, Hustlers may be JLo's best performance since Out of Sight, but she played a boss bytch from the Bronx. Not exactly a stretch.

Decent list all around. Happy to see Matthew Cherry get his. I hope Laura Dern wins. I think Joaquin has it on lock but Leo getting number two would be interesting. The Tom vs Denzel debate continues too haha.

I thought marriage story was fine for what it was. I think Laura Dern was better then ScarJo. I have no idea why ScarJo is getting this push.

I think Laura Dern's got the Best Supporting Actress.



My mom watched this film on Netflix and the scene she brought up to me was this one.

Gotdam this movie is overrated trash.
That monologue is basically a Women's Studies lecture crammed into a scene in the most forced way possible.
Nothing about Marriage Story was natural, unforced or true to life. It was a bunch of obnoxious white people acting with a capital "A".
Like the most torturous small town acting class one could imagine.
