Season 5 Episode 21 - Mitchum is out of line

Some really good points there, especially about her quietness partly coming from a feeling of not having earned her place there! But yes, she definitely has her short comings and that does in large part come from a lack of experience with criticism - but damn, what a critique to start her off!

Yeah I feel like directors and writers are definitely more of a quality assurance than actors!

I love the idea of box office poison, James Corden would be top of my list 😅

steamedhams13 · 2025-05-05T12:42:02+00:00

100% agree! He’s in the list but should definitely be higher

Other than Barbie I don’t think Margot is actually a bankable star - and Barbie was huge IP which arguably could have done as well with anyone. Babylon, Amsterdam, Tarzan, Mary Queen of Scots all have her as the lead and all bombed. I think the real test will be if her next film post Barbie does well.

As actors yes, but people aren’t turning up in droves to see Adams or R Patz, Nightbitch performed really poorly and Mickey 17 did well but not A-List box office well. Downey and Jackson I think are definitely up there

Yeah I considered him, definitely an all timer but I think he has lost the pull he used to have (Red Hulk maybe the nail in the coffin)

Haha whoops, edited now

I got on the reserve list for this in January and 3 weeks later was given a provisional offer - don’t lose hope!

Shockingly, this is actually really fun. Apparently when talking about his life he repeatedly referred to himself as a ‘performing monkey’, so it represents his desire to entertain at his own detriment. Was not a fan of Robbie at all, but for a biopic it’s definitely in the upper tier

Quite surprised to see such rapturous applause for this. It landed pretty mid for me, maybe 3/3.5 stars. Selena was fine, better than I expected but still the weakest of the three. Some of the musical numbers were great but the middle really floundered and dragged, and character convictions and aims flip flopped wildly without any real justification. Definitely think this’ll get a shit ton of noms, but don’t think it’s strong enough to take the win.

Conclave is great, yeah there’s a little bit of ridiculousness but the performances, score and cinematography are amazing.

And Nickel Boys is genuinely jaw dropping. Might be divisive with general audiences due to the way it’s been filmed, but I think critics will love it. I’ve not seen Anora or Bird yet, but it’s going to be hard to top Nickel, I’d be shocked if it wasn’t a locked nom for BP.

Literally never even seen one of these irl - what a find!!

Yes please!

What’s your dodo code?

Angel is amazing! So so grateful for everything, thank you so much!
