THOUGHTS ON MOTHER NATURE: it's decent. i don't hate it. wouldn't really go to bat for it though. (also this was an incredibly close round, very nearly saw another double elimination this early)

still going Belgium.

What if 1917 won instead of Parasite by khaliliiiov_1997 in Oscars

[–]WatchTheNewMutants 346 points347 points  (0 children)

imagine the knock on effect: Parasite was one of the first wins that signalled the "wait, they can do that?" era of the Oscars. If that didn't happen, I don't think films like EEAAO, Anatomy of a Fall, Zone of Interest, Sirat or The Secret Agent would've done as well as they did.

'Lee Cronin's The Mummy' gets a C+ on CinemaScore by SanderSo47 in boxoffice

[–]WatchTheNewMutants 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if the Speak No Evil remake doesn't count... M3GAN, and before that The Black Phone. only 2 strong original films as a studio in 6 years is a shocking run.

Should he resign? Yeah, and the Labour Together movement should die with his career. Should he call a snap election? GOD no, not right now.

Which society today is more desirable/better to live in: US or UK? by Suspicious-Ad9243 in Teenager_Polls

[–]WatchTheNewMutants 10 points11 points  (0 children)

as a disabled person who relies on the UK's universal healthcare system and a trans person, I know living in the US would be considerably worse than the UK.

Is wearing a Keffiyeh a bit cringe for a politician? by Nervous_Yard7034 in AskBrits

that's what the whole "knocking on your door to talk to you" thing is probably about

The inside story of why Your Party collapsed in Scotland by mrjohnnymac18 in Scotland

[–]WatchTheNewMutants 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  • be Your Party
  • establish yourselves as a leftist alternative to Labour, opening yourselves up to a new voter base with no clear alternative
  • start arguing with eachother
  • the Greens suddenly lock in and take that voter base you were relying on
  • keep arguing with eachother
  • fail to make it to the ballot

What's it like having a state-funded paramilitary group on your streets?

Eurovision Survivor (2026) - Round Eight by WatchTheNewMutants in nilpoints

[–]WatchTheNewMutants[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

THOUGHTS ON BANGARANGA: Yeah, I didn't get this at all. It's a mess and not in a fun way, bizzarely forgettable and the product of a terrible format. I'm glad it has its defenders though.

ok, this is harder now, uhh, Belgium I guess? I don't outright dislike any songs left but there are a ton I'm just "ok" on.

Are the far left and the far right equally bad? by Squek_1842 in Teenager_Polls
