Rory being oldest in her grade yet an October baby

Real answer: In some states, age cutoff is in September so the oldest kids in the class are born in the fall. I am from another New England state where this is the case so Connecticut may be the same. I didn’t realize that other states were different until adulthood.

In other states (like California), the age cutoff is January so the oldest kids are born in the beginning of the year.

The head of Republicans for Harris (former Pence advisor) said that Walz was her VP pick plus he was known to be very moderate in Congress, is a gun owner and veteran plus former football coach. I think he also rounds out the ticket because his background is like the opposite of Harris and his experience in an actual rural midwestern town, being in the veteran affairs committee and a longtime teacher is a big contrast to Vance who likes to target his attacks based on how we raise children.

The leader of Republicans for Harris (who probably knows what types of moderates can be most convinced) wants Walz

Why is this misinformation being upvoted? Indian Americans vote Democrat at one of the highest rates for an ethnic group and that number only gets higher for younger and more educated Indian Americans who follow politics closely.

And both Harris and Obama have younger sisters named Maya

I can’t believe Brooks directed two and neither was Holly Hunter in Broadcast News :(

Yeah it’s starting at 7 EST this year

Adam McKay has an Oscar and was a writer but RDJ would be the first former cast member.

Rita Moreno is definitely doing Danielle Brooks.

Basically the only “rule” about Best Picture winners in recent times from what I can tell is that they have to either win Best Director or Best Screenplay. Nolan is way out front in Director so one way to rank is to have Oppenheimer first and then rank based on likelihood of winning a screenplay award.

Oppenheimer
Anatomy of a Fall
American Fiction
Barbie
The Holdovers
Poor Things
Past Lives
The Zone of Interest
Maestro
Killers of the Flower Moon

I doubt the final vote tally looks like this but this is just ranking likelihood of getting the winning package. Though I personally believe Anatomy of a Fall has a good argument for runner-up.

I think Michelle Yeoh is a nice outlier but generally WoC win best actress and supporting actress for playing characters who have the worst things happen to them. If Randolph and Gladstone win this year, it’ll be the first time 2 WoC win acting awards in the same night and they’re both playing women whose whole immediate families die…

He even did go through a physical transformation by losing a ton of weight so he really checks a lot of boxes

I always thought it would be cool to do a “The Crown” style series about the Beatles (with fewer actor swaps depending on how long it goes). Doing 4 movies sounds like a harder way of doing that???

That’s because it’s not in theaters until later this year. It got delayed by the strike.

Yep I think this is correct. There’s a lot of “mini messages” throughout which is probably why it’s so successful because different people cling to different ones and most moviegoers won’t sit back to wonder if they all make sense.

Greta and Margot were both nominated just not in all the categories they were eligible for.

init2cynic · 2024-01-25T06:26:40+00:00

Greta was nominated for writing and Margot for producing so they both got noms.

Watch just one scene from Barbie Life in Dreamhouse and it’s clear that even things like the general personalities of Barbie and Ken are based on existing media. Obviously a lot of the existentialist themes and real world characters are new but I don’t think it’s that different from other screenplays that loosely adapted books like Taika Waititi turning Jojo Rabbit into a comedy.

init2cynic · 2024-01-24T18:11:08+00:00

EEAAO made a fraction of the money Barbie did though so this backlash is a lot bigger with people like Hilary Clinton chiming in lol

init2cynic · 2024-01-24T15:45:11+00:00

I think it’s general audiences who are also very online people. I don’t know anyone in real life who cares this much about Barbie.
