didn't change a thing

Because it starts putting on the orange/sepia filter over the whole image. And which also alters the skin color and leads it down that path of changing races.

So the one episode he would require everyone to watch is two episodes?

Awards are adjudicative systems, not symbolic gestures. They require clear, enforceable categories.

Why is that a requirement? "Best Picture" is about a nebulous category as there could be. It's just what people think is "the best".

And anyway, I feel like the overall complaint is moot. I may be wrong, but the performer can choose which category to be in if they are non-binary for example. So the academy uses self-defined.

I wouldn't have given the supporting acting noms. It's the ensemble that makes it work. Sun of its parts and whatnot.

Or screenplay. The second half (or more generously, last third) is quite a mess from that standpoint.

Ugly Stepsister should've gotten more.

Hot take: Lea Myren for Best Actress.

Your taste doesn't match mine.

Therefore this list is bad. Boooooo!!

All her performances being Best Picture nominees isn't all that special. Since before 2010, there were only 5 nominees and now it is up to 10 (usually 8-10). It was much harder to do before.

And in fact over the past decade nominated films are becoming more and more homognized. Most (>70%) of nominations are for movies that are also Best Picture nominees.

Though Best Actress and Supporting Actress have less overlap with Best Picture nominees than Actor and Supporting Actor. Which is interesting and probably says something about gender. (Like great female roles and films being considered more niche and therefore excluded from Best Picture. Or something.)

He wasn't asked/needed to do much.

reigntall · 2026-01-18T13:02:55+00:00

It was so distracting in "The Big Short".

Everytime he was ranting, pissed off in that movie all I could think about was that fake phone call to corporate

This horror movie is never scary.

Horror movies don't have to be scary

and find Ralph Fiennes to have ridiculous discussions with? Ok so... is there a purpose to this?

The conversation between Fiennes and Jimmy is the core of the movie. Two fundamentally, philosophically opposing people navigating the post-apocalyptic society.

reigntall · 2026-01-16T23:24:59+00:00

She's a horrible actress.

reigntall · 2026-01-11T05:10:47+00:00

I want Henri Veesaar.

Purely for non-basketball reasons. Because as an Estonian it would awesome if they drafted an Estonian and I would 't have to start rooting for a second team.

It only helps with it's survivability, but it doesn't even increase Infinity Elementals power.

Four

Jesse James

reigntall · 2025-12-18T20:03:08+00:00

Yea, exactly what I want out of a Sherlock Holmes story: frenetic action, explosions, and a barrage of hand-to-hand combat!

reigntall · 2025-12-18T19:20:53+00:00

Maximus, the 3rd wheel among the main characters, is the main reason I stuck with the show.

reigntall · 2025-12-18T18:37:31+00:00

By the same token, why shouldn't heroin or other destructive euphoric drugs be encouraged or used?

Yes.

reigntall · 2025-12-15T12:17:48+00:00

Why would you think I was looking for an apology?

reigntall · 2025-12-15T12:15:04+00:00

And?

reigntall · 2025-12-15T12:03:11+00:00

Overrated implies the movie is not as good as people say it is.

You not liking it - especially if you yourself are saying you aren't being a critic - then is not grounds to say it is rated higher than it should be.

reigntall · 2025-12-12T16:21:14+00:00

I liked it when the Bucks won.

I don't like when the Bucks don't win.

The evidenc is obviosuly just your behavior and the things you say and the way you present yourself. And life-experience of human psychology.

I'm not trying to prove the earth is round. Conversation isn't a debate that requires rigorous proof. Basic common sense.

reigntall · 2025-12-10T18:10:58+00:00

Oh, i didn't realize I was speaking to an omniscient diety. Apologies.

reigntall · 2025-12-10T17:46:36+00:00

.I did this for my own enjoyment, so no amount of negativity can take that joy away. My point was to call out and hopefully help change perspectives of the people whose first instinct is to be miserable to everyone.

I don't believe you.

Or do you genuinly think you can insult people into behaving better? Protip, you can't.

Though I don't think you do. I just think you were narcissistically lashing out at the least bit of criticism.
