initial reactions are like

joker 2 is an affront to mankind and to filmmaking. lady gaga soooo innocent though uwu i can't believe they would waste a generational acting talent such as her!! hague!!

what is it about specifically lady gaga that makes people on film twitter forget they are supposed to have critical faculties and discernment

who's gonna be the first film twitter toddler to try to start a best song campaign for m night shyamalan's nepo daughter

RIP to Julianna "as someone who plays a lesbian journalist on The Morning Show" Margulies, imagine doing all that and getting passed over for FOUR other people from your show... i would simply retire!

refreshing gold derby until i can pick shogun and every actor in it up at 100/1 odds in the drama categories

i have grown really bored with this new wave of film critics who have elected themselves the arbiters of sexuality and desire in cinema... they are VERY desperate to make sure you know THEY have sex and understand it MORE than you... and if YOU find something sexy that they don't, you just watched it wrong! no examples given, no showing their work, just vibes

past lives about to be the only best picture nominee that doesn't win anything...

i would also choose immediately after the american fiction screenplay win to erupt into protest

can you imagine going to an awards show and being seated next to an oscar blogger on their phone the whole time frantically trying to live tweet the winners

always had a suspicion and am now being proven right that the entire barbie campaign strategy was HOPING for a snub of any kind and spending the last stretch positioning themselves as an underdog, eschewing all logic and even pretending that multiple of their nominations didn't happen to ride a victim narrative to at least a greta screenplay win

for some reason i feel like there's a video out there in the world of ava duvernay reacting to the oscar nomination announcements that she's going to post later like "this is a setback. but they will never steal my shine. my voice is a weapon and it will be heard."

an underdiscussed part of the ever growing parasocial relationship the internet has with every actor is the collective inability to admit when they didn't deserve to be nominated for awards. colman domingo is awful in rustin, one of the worst movies of the year. i truly don't care how many red carpet photos of him you retweet, it doesn't change that fact and you should probably grow up!!

it's open season for gay people on twitter with the worst taste imaginable who have to get defensive about bad performances in bad movies just bc they are given by actresses over the age of 40

"Annette is actually great in NYAD"

the jon batiste AND michael j fox propaganda documentaries getting snubbed are today's one example of a branch possessing anything resembling independent thinking

[ethanaboutnothing]

honestly glad past lives still clung onto that best picture nomination considering how little proof we have that anyone but the writers actually liked the movie!!!

"dominic sessa" was a psy-op planted by the bafta nominating committee to throw off people's goldderby predictions
