I think overall, the movies didn't quite stack up to last year's. We're just over here waiting for the Horror Awards 🥹

Anni

I wish they would add a best special effects category

Caden Conner

i saw the tv glow was a massive snub. i personally think it was the best movie of the year

Chris Kusiolek

I think some of the industry’s love for Emilia Perez comes from the redemption via philanthropy element in that film, at least that’s what that stunk like to me (plus generally being out of touch theater types)

Christian mcmahon

I would like to make a correction, LOTR got 1 acting nomination. Ian McKellen was nominated for best supporting actor for Fellowship

Blake Douglas

Adrien is the brutalist guy ever

Christopher Ikonomou

The redeeming line from Adrien Brody's speech was him thanking The Brutalist's production designer Judy Becker and calling her the real Laszlo Toth! This year and last were such great years for movies. If y'all have time it would be cool to get some lightning round review episodes for non-horror movies you see throughout the year 👀 I would love to hear Chelsea's thoughts on A Different Man and The Apprentice when she gets around to them. A Different Man is tied for my fave of the year with Sing Sing, such an intelligent and darkly funny movie about disability. And The Apprentice will make you feel like shit because it's such a strong movie about evil (written by a journalist and directed by a documentarian, it's real grim stuff), Jeremy Strong was my personal pick for Best Supporting. Sebastian Stan deserves all the love!! P.S. I watched the broadcast from Australia and got to hear Kieran Culkin say fuck on live TV, seminal moment 😂

September 5 was legit pretty good. It's 95 minutes, but also the script is tight and fast paced. Can see why it was nominated for best screenplay. I somehow didn't know much about this historical event either which was crazy to learn about.

on the point of certain actors/industry ppl not being there, its been pointed out that some movies are still in production like matt damon/anne hathaway/tom holland/etc are is Nolan's Odyssey movie so its fair that theyre just busy and instead of just hanging out at the awards that theyre not nominated for theyre like actually working, also more celebrities showed up at the after party. i think the roger corman family tree idea is fun (like the sag awards doing the law & order bit or like the bloodline presentation for WM 40) but if the fab 5 format is too masturbatory then i could see the hypothetical corman bit also being that—especially considering hollywood still insisting its a meritocracy instead of a its-who-you-know kind of industry even tho we all know it is

totally fair. i first saw it as a pete seeger stan who knew nothing about dylan and his music, and left still feeling like i knew nothing about him or his music- but for some reason i just couldn’t get the movie out of my head. i rewatched it and got a lot more out of it, i was rooting for timmy to win hard.

Dead Meat

Timmy's great! We just found the movie kinda plain.

votejuno

what is with the timmy/dylan hate 💔

charlie

Not a comment in good taste, I retract that

seeing emilia perez get only 2/13 of its nominations was funny as fuck

Owen Felton

I'm Still Here was great, but you should watch The Seed of the Sacred Fig! It was easily the best nominee for international feature. The director was sentenced to prison in Iran for making films criticizing the Iranian government and had to shoot the entire film in secret and flee the country afterward. It has very similar subject matter to I'm Still Here, but is even better in my opinion, so I'm disappointed it didn't receive more recognition. I highly recommend!

Nick Edwards

i can, yes. listening rn.

Dead Meat

This is our 14th one! We're trying to catch up on the months we missed, too.

Dead Meat

Lol exactly. No idea what's going on with that once-reliable platform. Enshitification I guess? Can you play the file that's uploaded directly to Patreon?
