kinda crazy how barbie has taken on like Biggest Oscar Snubs Ever status despite being literally one of the most nominated films this year

#people (including my mother on facebook???) are posting like it only got one nom and that was for ryan #like idk. 8 nominations doesn't feel that big of a snub that totally misunderstands the whole film #considering 6 out of 8 are/include female nominees #feels like a shame to not be celebrating instead #talking

My one and only thought about the Oscars this year is that every single nomination given to that shitty Elvis movie should've gone to Rocketman (2019) when it was up but unfortunately, homophobia

#no i'm still not over the level of snubs that movie received #no i will never be over it #it's my favourite film okay #rocketman

I realize this is nothing new but how are NONE of the three leads for May December (2023) nominated for an Oscar??????? NONE?!? I’m as tired about the Barbie/Oscar beef as the next person, but you have RYAN GOSLING a nomination for best supporting when CHARLES FUCKING MELTON was right there?? WHAT. EXPLAIN TO ME ACADEMY. EXPLAIN.

#the oscars #the oscars don’t usually get me so riled up but this is the first time in a WHILE I’ve felt like something was SNUBBED with a capital s #oscars 2024 #may december #charles melton #natalie portman #julianne moore #todd haynes #samy burch #the academy awards #film #cinema

beginning to think the academy doesn’t understand what makes a good film score

#first the batman snub last year now this clusterfuck??#respect to the nominees but COME THE FUCK ON #😵‍💫#i would’ve respected a spiderverse snub more for something like ‘society of the snow’#hell ryuichi sakamoto’s final score for ‘monster’ - an underdog pick but GORGEOUS #but INDIANA JONES #JOE HISAISHI HAD A SCORE THIS YEAR #THIS WAS SUCH A GOOD YEAR FOR FILM SCORING #WTFFFFFF #they really see john williams on a ballot and tick w/o listening dont they #same thing happened w/ the fabelmans #girlie please save me #oscars 2024 #mini rant

Ok, been sitting on this for a while, been trying to talk myself out of it, but here goes.

The book doesn't sell me on the love Theoden had for Eowyn.

I tried to read it and find something in his actions towards her that tell me he has proper regard, proper respect for her, that gives any weight or meaning to his love for her, but I can't find anything. He dismisses her before the entire court, doesn't consider her an heir or a proper part of his house, and has to have her virtues called out to him by other people, when she has been serving him for years.

Return Of The King sees him spout platitudes and declare her "dearer than daughter", but none of this is backed up by his general actions to her.

He loves Eowyn, fine. But he doesn't love her the way he loves Eomer, or probably loved Theodred. He doesn't love her as a fully realised being. Nor as someone to take pride in and carry on his legacy. He loves her a crutch, a tool, and something between pet and person.

He has affection for Eowyn, but his love feels more like a trivial thing, than something with any real worth or regard to it.

#Lotr #Lord of the Rings #Eowyn #Theoden #I don't think this is Tolkien's intent #I think I'm meant to believe that Theoden was awesome to Eowyn and did love her more than a daughter #but Tolkien never gave me a reason to believe that #can someone find me a moment in the books where Theoden's love for Eowyn feels like something substantial #where he loves her for who she is and not for the services she has provided #where he shows any respect for her capabilities and pride in her person #and not just going along with it when other people point them out to him #I love them in the films and I want to believe in their love so much #but Theoden's love for Eowyn in the books just feels perfunctory and leaves me feeling empty #I don't think this is how their relationship is meant to make me feel #Eowyn put her life on hold and endured hell for Theoden's sake #and we never even get an implication he regretted what she endured for his sake #we never see a hint of Theoden regretting how he snubbed her before the court #almost every scene between the two of them in Two Towers lacks warmth or regard between them #the minute Theoden's recovered he sends Eowyn away as though she's not longer of use to him #he forgets her bloody existence before everyone in the hall #he has her wait on him while Eomer Aragorn Gimli and Legolas all get to sit with him #and in turn all Eowyn can do is look at him with cool pity #and at their parting she focusses more on Aragorn than Theoden #she clearly isn't feeling the love right now and why should she?#it makes Theoden calling her daughter and showing her some morsels of affection in Return of the King feel empty #like now yeah he can be bothered to acknowledge Eowyn a bit now that it suits him #but when other stuff is going on she falls to the back of his mind #there's enough unseen moments or gaps where perhaps if Tolkien had written them I might have believed in Theoden's love for Eowyn #such as their parting before Pelennor which was described as “painful”#but that pain could have meant a variety of things

apparently the reason may december is being snubbed during awards season is because a lot of actors REALLY didn’t like what it had to say about actors who take on the roles of real people, and the idea that a bunch of former theatre kids might be sensitive about criticism of the industry they work in is, to me, just so shocking

#hey guess what every industry has problems but the answer is not to ignore and snub people who comment on them #also #it almost seems wilful because for me the main takeaway was uhhh abusing kids is bad??#a white woman was able to continue abusing a boy/man of colour by infantilising herself to him and the entire world #like the natalie portman as an actress thing seemed more the catalyst of other things in the film than the main point #the whole media circus and the desire of the public to know every detail is kind of secondary to watching this young man #—who in so many ways still behaves and thinks of himself like a child—come to terms with the fact he’s been lied to and failed #just utterly failed by everyone who supposedly is there to protect him #idk i really liked it and charles melton deserves an oscar for that performance #reggie from riverdale held his own against julianne moore and natalie portman like holy shit #something something charles melton’s character never had his own voice as a child and now as a grown man still doesn’t #he is spoken over by his wife/abuser and by the media who document/frame/characterise his history and now by natalie portman’s film #may december #aj abstractions

Goldblum absolutely should have been nominated for The Fly yeah. I know everyone already said this at the time but... they were right! Just finished my rewatch of it and I love how his voice slowly becomes more and more buzzing. Such a good performance all round but really good vocally how he portrays the change.

#david cronenberg #the fly #jeff goldblum #academy awards #horror #film #stuff #just watched #they snubbed him #i guess they just don't go for gory horror films like that #oh well

The way some people are reacting to the Oscar nominations, specifically in regards towards Barbie, and many other things surrounding it holds certain undertones, especially when they then start to go and deny America Ferrera's talent among other things, that are very concerning. Like let's not do that. Especially if you're writing an article for a newspaper (LA Times) that makes digs towards the other films and their nominees, mainly who were women, and say that that proves the point of Barbie. Even though the point of the film was that women have to work harder than men just to get their foot in the door, not about shaming other women, but I digress.
