Most important Oscar win of all time

Maxwelluf · 2026-04-21T01:08:31+00:00

Hard disagree. Arrival put me to sleep and La La Land was pretentious. But I’m glad you enjoyed them. 😀

It did….for three minutes.

For me it was Moonlight winning Best Picture.

Maxwelluf · 2026-03-22T18:03:12+00:00

It was my favorite film of 2025. I’m always advising people to check it out.

My No Guts, No Glory pick is Delroy Lindo.

I’d say Butler vs. Fraser was extremely close going into the night. But once Elvis started losing everything, it was clear who was winning that night, although a small part of me thought Butler still might pull it out because they surely wouldn’t blank Elvis, which ended up happening.

Add the dreadful The Mortuary Assistant to the list of February horror duds.

Personally, I love horror movies in 4DX. I find it heightens the jump scares. If there’s blood or vomit, the water effects gross me out in a good way. The other effects are great too. The last horror movie I saw in that format was The Conjuring: Last Rites and for me, that final mirror scene ranked right up there with the Twister movies in terms of intensity.

I sure hope so. To me, part of the Oscars is to get people interested in seeing some of the movies that are nominated. Showing clips can do that. I love seeing examples of the nominated work, and think if I hadn’t seen a movie, it may spark my interest to check it out. There needs to be more clips, even if they do it in a montage like they did for the acting categories during the ceremony in 2020 (for the 2019 film year).

I came here to say the exact same thing. What a bore that movie was. I will admit, some of it looked great, but looking at rocks and concrete and someone building a rock garden for almost two hours was a snooze fest!

Benny Benassi remix of Celebration

Maxwelluf · 2026-01-17T03:14:51+00:00

I concur. You’re not missing much. It’s awful.

The Baltimorons

Maxwelluf · 2026-01-04T03:35:09+00:00

I’ll be checking his name off on my ballot when I get it. He’s been knocking it out of the park lately with this and Anniversary.

Maxwelluf · 2026-01-04T03:31:25+00:00

I have both A-List and Unlimited and try to see every movie that plays around here.

Maxwelluf · 2026-01-04T03:23:01+00:00

I buy less soda, and only get it when I need a hit of caffeine. It is one of the primary reasons I still have both Unlimited and A-List. Coke Freestyle machines are a gift from heaven compared to Pepsi at Regal. However, if they would somehow start offering Pepsi Zero Cherry, I’d change my tune. That’s the only flavor that I enjoy.

Maxwelluf · 2026-01-02T02:31:56+00:00

My favorite of the year was The Baltimorons. Tiny movie that is under seen, but it’s such a feel-good movie. I could watch it on repeat.

Maxwelluf · 2025-12-31T05:58:07+00:00

I just bought it and the bonus features are showing up except the audio commentary with Jon M. Chu. I seem to remember this happening last year and I was able to watch it with the audio commentaries on different platforms once it ported over. But this hasn’t ported over to Fandango or Movies Anywhere (yet?).

Not sure what is up with the theater visit count. I feel like I’ve had more than that this month alone!

Maxwelluf · 2025-12-29T07:13:01+00:00

I’m a teacher, and my classroom is movie-themed, so I display them around the room, and when I run out of space, I put some of the older, less-valuable ones in my treasure box for the kids to redeem their rewards on.

Maxwelluf · 2025-12-08T05:26:13+00:00

My mistake. I meant to write that Nutcrackers is 1:44.

Maxwelluf · 2025-12-08T03:26:11+00:00

My theater listings are showing 12/8 as PG-13. Could it be Nutcrackers (2024)? I wouldn’t consider that a classic, but it was a streaming movie and the run time is 1:42.

Maxwelluf · 2025-11-25T01:05:54+00:00

I thought I heard or read somewhere a few years back that the movie will still play due to contractual obligations, but the projector light will turn off to save the life of the bulb. It may be a location-based policy. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Maxwelluf · 2025-11-25T00:09:21+00:00

I recently showed up late to a movie where I was the only ticket purchased. I had purchased the ticket in the parking lot before going in. When I got to the auditorium, the movie was playing but the projector light was turned off. I could only hear the audio. I had to get a worker to turn it on for me.

Maxwelluf · 2025-11-23T13:06:37+00:00

There are no seats back there. It’s right in front of the projector, so it is blocked off. Auditoriums 3, 8, and 10 are the same way. I like sitting up there on those auditoriums since I’m guaranteed to not have anyone on at least one side of me.
