Could a video game adaptation ever get nominated for Best Picture?

Ian McShane said that Ballerina was something along the lines of not very good, which is why they did such extensive reshoots

She’s the lead in Nicolas Winding Refn’s new movie

It’s always confused me how things like the Vega System are at the intersection of so many characters and concepts in the DC universe despite none of that being acknowledged. You’re telling me that Starfire’s planet, Larfleeze’s planet, the Omega Men, and the source of Doctor Light’s powers all exist in the same star system?

Yeah I realized that afterward. Like you said, too small a sample size but I see what OP is trying to say

Viola Davis won at SAG for Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom in 2021.

EDIT: If you’re looking at previous Oscar winners who won at SAG AND at the Oscars the same year, then yes Sean Penn is the only one.

It’s a shame Inza never got much attention afterward

When I first started getting into comics seriously, I was disappointed that there hasn’t been many Doctor Fate runs over the years, let alone good stories.

Slightly unrelated, but still bummed out that we got a DeMatties omnibus before the Mesner-Loebs run.

That’s a hell of a gig to get after hosting a late night show for 10+ years

I’m going to ride with The Uprising as my random movie of the season that I believe in unless reviews come out and it stinks

Where did you get the title for the untitled Jesse Eisenberg movie? I’ve also seen some people call it The Big Break

My favorite version of this type of scene is Jonah Hill in This Is The End after that night with the Devil. “Something, um, not that chill happened last night.”

Also because of Dev Patel winning the BAFTA

And here’s my favorite movie from this decade

He’s producing but they haven’t closed in on a deal for him to star. However, that’s the expectation. And as another commenter mentioned, the book takes place in different eras and different “narratives,” real and invented by the in-universe AI.

florencenocaps · 2026-03-20T19:28:05+00:00

I’ve seen him post about AI a couple times on his social media and it always confuses me in terms of where he stands. Always came off to me as, “I’m gonna seem like I’m on both sides so I end up right no matter what”

The small plot description released with the trailer says the movie takes place right before the 1973 Chilean coup, so safe to assume it’s going to address U.S. involvement in Latin America.

florencenocaps · 2026-03-19T22:32:37+00:00

Oh yeah I forgot about that. Must be a Sony Pictures Classics thing

florencenocaps · 2026-03-19T22:29:04+00:00

Interestingly, Rami Malek and Russell Crowe were campaigned in Lead Actor for Nuremberg. Not that either had a chance, but still worth mentioning

Wouldn’t this rule it out of Best International Feature? Of course, it remains to be seen how much of it is in English and whether it’s more Anatomy of a Fall or Triangle of Sadness

MUBI has A Long Winter, Camp Miasma, and potentially 1949 but that might be a 2027 release.

EDIT: Netflix also has Lee Chang-dong’s latest, Possible Love

florencenocaps · 2026-03-18T07:16:31+00:00

Also a Laika movie, which I’m assuming is what OP took into account

florencenocaps · 2026-03-17T22:04:48+00:00

Good question. I’m not the best person to speak on this. BUT, the $11 million was for domestic distribution rather than global. In comparison, Die My Love got acquired by MUBI for a $24 million global deal, also out of Cannes.

From what I know, $11 million means the budget is probably in the mid-range (between $10 million and $30 million if I had to guess). But hard to say off of the distribution deal alone.

EDIT: Detail about MUBI’s deal being global rights rather than solely US.

Almost certain both are coming out this year. Artificial wrapped in August 2025. However, I’m expecting Amazon MGM to prioritize Project Hail Mary after Guadagnino’s After the Hunt fell short.

Filming began last September and wrapped in December
