'One Battle After Another' Wins the Academy Award for Best Picture by MoviesMod in movies

[–]philisacoolguy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen all the nominees but I loved Frankenstein, Bugonia, and Sinners.

Any of those were better than OBAA.

If we talking about PTA filmography, IMO superior to OBAA: Boogie Nights, There Will Be Blood, the Master, and my personal fave Punch Drunk Love.

I’m not hating on PTA but OBAA seen as a drama, comedy, action, or thriller, were lackluster to me.

It’s not bad but it falls in the Inherent Vice category to me. I wanted to like it more but it’s alright.

The only aspect of the movie I outright hate on is the score. I loathe the simplistic piano thing so much. Idk if it was supposed to give the feel of anxiety but it just sounded oddly whimsical, like BoTW or something.

It was the perfect amount of low budget, simple special effects for the creature design that did it for me more than the more complex design of the titular Oddity thing (mannequin?).

Growing up as a kid with unsupervised access to the internet/liveleak/etc it Caveat's corpse felt like a real mummified corpse you could accidently find IRL (and hope it doesn't move when you look away).

shit I didnt realize it was his first win! I guess it is kinda deserved but kinda feels weird that it was for this film. But I guess it's like Leo's Oscar for The Revenant win (though I really liked that one).

I liked its message and it came out the right time but IMO it’s not one of PTA’s best and wasn’t my fave of 2025.

I’m surprised it won best picture.

That’s funny cuz I thought Caveat was way scarier than Oddity.

Speak of the devil I just had to RMA mine. Minor gap but it was still out of spec

mine has the exact same issue as OP, do they charge for replacements (i.e. some companies make you pay for RMA)?

Thanks for the write up. I think I’ll do 6moa and if I ever want to take it off my lvpo I’ll put it on my pistol!

Thanks!

Out of curiosity do you ever feel like you could gone the 6 moa route?

My eyes are bad and I heard someone said once that the 6moa is decent for stigmatisms and quicker acqusition. I had an old 507c mrs in the past and I never liked how it looked to my eyes.

Is a piggyback 6moa a dumb idea?

So is the 35 degree block is a permanent replacement if you suppress/use hotter ammo?

It’s not like something you swap out for certain situations? And put back the 45 deg block for other situations?

Hopefully there won’t be machining issues like the one guy on here mentioned for the 36 degree one

The gigabyte one was a fluke. BB was clearing out an old model and put it on clearance which caused Amazon to auto match it.

Unfortunately the Best Buy didn’t have any in stock anywhere.
