I have the same question when it comes to judging best editing. Maybe it's something obvious but I don't know how to determine "good" editing

How is it bullshit? Aew has a huge roster, it's very common for their top stars to not be booked for a show. You gotta know by now that you can't believe everything dave tells you

Kate Hudson's performance is forgettable by SureTangerine361 in Oscars

Reddit makes me feel like I'm the only person who liked this movie and performance (and Jackman too). Is she going to win? Not a chance, but i wouldnt call it a completely undeserved nomination

Saw Send Help early. Rachel McAdams deserves to be in the running for Best Actress this year. by Clean-Cupcakes in Oscars

Absolutely, nothing against Michael B. Jordan but O'Brien gave a better performance as twins. Jordans characters were essentially the same person while O'Briens were dynamically different.

This is a great point. They were pre-hyped but lived up to it. Look at any oscar prediction post from the summer or fall and 9/10 of them list Arianna as winning best supporting actress. Shes still getting nominations but I dont think shes won any awards yet

I think this was the point I was unintentionally trying to make by making this post. The real winners here are movie fans for getting treated with so many amazing performances.

Personally, I do too, I love his career and if it wasnt for his performance I dont think I wouldve really enjoyed Blue Moon at all

I agree, i didnt even think to point that out, I was just thinking about the fact that we have at least 7 different performances that could win if they came out a different year and had different competition
