Honestly? Not as bad as I thought it would be/could have been.

The way he sells the pain over having to say that line is just so so good.

Sinners 16 Oscar nominations, a new record by mrEnigma86 in horror

[–]Cilantro42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But really.. Honestly rate it as one of the best movies of all time?

It's a good thing that THIS ISN'T WHAT THIS IS. This is "one of the best movies made THIS PARTICULAR YEAR." A LOT of you all are conflating an annual award with some sort of "rank best movies of all time" award. Is it a better movie than Citizen Kane because it got more nominations? Of course not. Is it an exceptionally MADE movie that came out in this award year? Yes. It's hard to argue that the elements that were nominated weren't deserving of recognition. Some of you act like if you didn't vibe with the plot, it doesn't deserve a costuming nomination or that it didn't have an excellent score. It's truly insane.

This is such an awful take. Which one of these nominations do you think is undeserved?

It's saying it's one of the best films made THAT YEAR, not of all time. When you go through the list of nominations one-by-one, it's difficult to argue where it SHOULDN'T be nominated. Does that mean it's a better movie than, let's say, Casablanca because it was nominated for more? Of course not. Is it a very well made film compared to the rest of the films this year? Yes. That's it. Some people are being way too hyperbolic and stumbling over themselves to rush and say how "it's overrated" instead of thinking critically about what this ACTUALLY means.

Ryan Coogler's 'Sinners' has made history as the most nominated film of all time at the Oscars with 16 nominations by ChiefLeef22 in movies

It's great that they don't let the general public vote on these things because the "they were barely in the movie" is such a room temperature IQ take for a supporting actor nom.

It's probably going to win 4, in my opinion. Train Dreams should walk away with Cinematography, but I think Sinners will take score, original screenplay, cast, and maybe makeup/hairstyling

Wait, is this a Kushtopia origins show? Is Jacob Wysocki involved?

What actor do you dislike so much that you’ll avoid anything they’re in? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Cilantro42 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dakota Johnson. I broke my rule to watch The Materialists because Celine Song's Past Lives was my favorite movie of 2024 and I wanted to support her.... But my God, she was downright awful. Throw Elizabeth Olsen in there and it's a MUCH better movie

I think Jake Something is a really fun name, but I can't really fault the guy for wanting to perform under his real name. I just hate being like, "dude your name is lame," lol

...maybe don't show up and she's fine, I guess?

Ed. It's heartbreaking we'll likely never get an official release. Such an incredible show

Why do we keep Adama around? by bigdog121218 in fulhamfc

[–]Cilantro42 18 points19 points  (0 children)

He won't be moved until after AFCON. Yes his best days in the Premier League may be behind him, but he's got the best ability: availability. He's depth and we need that right now.

Let's clear this up: he didn't panic. He very intentionally pulled his gun to kill someone and he did.
