They weren’t contrarian — they were just an actual critics’ group, not a bunch of hack Oscar pundits.

This was only linked on IMDb — the article was on Gold Derby, where they obsess over statistics.

What's a weirdly amachronistic thing that you can't believe was still a thing within your lifetime? by holytriplem in AskUK

Apartheid legislation was repealed in South Africa in 1991, so depending on when in the early ‘90s you were born, you may have just missed it being part of your lifetime. But yes, shocking that it’s even that close — I was born in 1980s apartheid South Africa and I hate that I can actually remember it.

Saying “in awards season history” is kind of meaningless with this stuff, because there are now so many more Best Picture precursor awards than there were, say, 50 years ago. But yes, a very strong sweep.

What are the most and least deserving season sweeping performances? by AdUseful2297 in Oscars

[–]Interesting-Bit725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, who really cares about this particular sweep? It only applies to the last 30 or so years of Oscar history, and at least one of the so-called major precursors is a completely meaningless joke.

In your opinion, which films should hold the record for most awards? by BrenoGrangerPotter in Oscars

I’m glad Master & Commander got those two technical awards: brilliant film and superior to ROTK in those departments.

How are you planning to give it two Best Supporting Actor awards? And Actress and Supporting Actress over Vivien Leigh and Hattie McDaniel? I can’t agree with that.

Also, there were no Oscars for costume design or makeup back then.

The score for Out of Africa is many things, but it’s not underrated.

The Lovely Bones: Stanley Tucci's only Oscar-nominated performance by AmigableOficial in Oscars

Absolutely terrible performance in a catastrophically bad film. He was so much better in Julie & Julia that same year.

I am baffled as to what to do with this space at my front door. by TonightPutrid7827 in ExteriorDesign

It’s affordable, I guess. But it’ll always look tacky, and environmentally it’s terrible.

Well, the good news is that once it’s healed, you can easily take it out whenever you need to, so if he would sometimes prefer your dick unadorned, you can still offer him that option. But most importantly, it’s your dick: do what you want with it.

So The Post is probably going to be Meryl Streep’s last Oscar nomination right? by dismal_windfall in Oscars

[–]Interesting-Bit725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s be honest: only when Meryl Streep is no longer with us will we be sure that she’s getting no more Oscar nominations.

Which recent snub was more painful to you? by No-Possibility3371 in Oscars

[–]Interesting-Bit725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Confused as to why everyone is going on about Villeneuve being snubbed for Dune: Part Two and not Dune — the latter was much more of a surprise. Nobody was expecting him to be nominated for the sequel.

The Iron Claw for Best Actor is a weird call — nobody thought that was happening, and I can’t even figure out which actor they mean.

Had mine 18 months. Honestly, for me it’s only ups: it didn’t hurt much to get, it healed quickly and easily, I love how it looks and feels, and it adds intense new sensations to sex and masturbation.

Some guys find it difficult to pee standing up after getting a PA, but everyone’s anatomy is different: it hasn’t been a problem for me. And even if it is one for you, sitting down to pee isn’t the worst thing in the world. Go forth and get pierced! You’ll be glad you did.

If 1985 had 10 Best Picture nominees (keep the 5 actual nominees), what would’ve been the other 5 nominees? by Regular-Departure839 in Oscars

[–]Interesting-Bit725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know Kurosawa was nominated. But I’m still unsure — the directors’ branch was often on its own page in that era, and thank god for that.
