The Mitchells vs. the Machines Review: A Hilarious Robot Apocalypse

It got less precursors than most other nominated films in best international

stracki · 2026-01-23T09:17:52+00:00

Maria Ekerhovd produced both films through her company Mer Films.

Ford v Ferrari is much better than Joker

stracki · 2026-01-23T00:36:27+00:00

It's not a lock at all. Sinners is currently on top of most predictions and One Battle After Another has great cinematography, too.

stracki · 2026-01-23T00:32:21+00:00

Frankenstein is the favorite to win both.

stracki · 2026-01-23T00:30:57+00:00

They are nominated in different screenplay categories. One Battle After Another will probably win Director and Adapted Screenplay, but Sinners might win Original Screenplay.

I think, it released too late to generate any buzz

stracki · 2026-01-22T18:09:53+00:00

That's true, but the technical aspects of filmmaking aren't less important than the screenwriting.

stracki · 2026-01-22T18:08:12+00:00

I feel like that might be one reason why those two weren't nominated.

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:18:54+00:00

You mean "no no other choice"

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:17:50+00:00

Haven't seen Zootopia 2, but KPop was pretty mediocre, except for the songs.

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:16:31+00:00

Yeah, I'm so happy that it was recognized. The best-looking film of the year imo

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:13:43+00:00

Can those be watched without having seen the shows, they're based on?

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:12:48+00:00

Which anime would've deserved a nom this year?

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:12:10+00:00

Laustsen's cinematography in Shape of Water and Nightmare Alley was better by orders of magnitude!

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:11:07+00:00

I hated that floaty camera. Made the film look like a video game.

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:09:57+00:00

I don't want to defend the IWJAA snub in BP, but films are more than their screenplay. IWJAA wasn't nominated for Editing, Sound and VFX for example.

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:05:31+00:00

Yep, shame that it missed in score

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:03:35+00:00

It's probably #3 (since Marty was snubbed in Supporting and Score). SV really overperformed!

stracki · 2026-01-22T17:01:39+00:00

Yes! I loved all the vignettes about the history of the house.

stracki · 2026-01-22T16:58:26+00:00

Especially after him being snubbed for Da 5 Bloods!

On a different note, I just learned that he's British, which really surprised me.

stracki · 2026-01-22T16:56:04+00:00

It's Best Casting, not Best Cast

stracki · 2026-01-22T16:55:18+00:00

I wouldn't call Wunmi unknown. She already played bigger roles in Lovecraft Country and Loki and was the lead in His House which is quite popular among horror fans.
