Oscar nominated fare ain't what it used to be...

Elvis was meh....avatar2 about 2 decades too late...anyone besides me actually watch banshee? Interesting sure, Oscar worthy no....everything everywhere just weird but in its defense I only watched 5 minutes of the middle of the film
 
Watched Triangle of Sadness last night. It was alright but probably one of the better nominees for best picture of the current batch. I've now seen most of them.

My ranking of them is below:

Best Picture:
1. Top Gun
2. All Quiet on the Western Front
3. Triangle of Sadness
4. The Banshee of Inisherin
5. The Fabelmans
6. Tar
7. Everything, Everywhere All At Once


Haven't seen and have no interest in seeing:
Avatar 2
Elvis
Women Talking (I might check this one out).

Kimmel is a first-tier bucket-carrier. He is also on “the list”, so they know he won’t make any jokes that are too close to the quick, so he is a safe host.
 
Summary:

Everything Everywhere All at Once dominates, winning Best Picture, Best Director (Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert), Best Actress (Michelle Yeoh), Best Supporting Actor (Ke Huy Quan), Best Supporting Actress (Jamie Lee Curtis), Best Original Screenplay, and Best Editing.

All Quiet on the Western Front wins Foreign, Production, Cinematography, Score. The Whale wins Best Actor (Brendan Fraser) and Makeup. Women Talking wins Adapted, and Pinocchio wins Animated.

Black Panther 2 wins Costume but surprisingly (considering all the hype around Rihanna "Lift Me Up") loses Song to RRR "Naatu Naatu". Avatar 2 wins Visual.

Will Smith doesn't slap anyone because he is not there.

Everything Everywhere All at Once was the poorest Best Picture selection of all time. Asian affirmative action agenda gone wrong. Here's what happened: (first two pars. copied from an Asian's honest one-star review.)

In 2022, AMPAS (the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences) made Janey Yang their new president. A Chinese-American woman with big pull in the Asian cinema market. In discussion with the thirty (30) member executive committee of AMPAS, she decided to have a big Asian diversity year for AMPAS at the 2023 Oscars. Yes folks, it is these thirty people who basically decide who will get Oscar nominations.

They searched and found one American made movie with a large Asian cast, a movie called ‘Everything, Everywhere, All At Once. They immediately jumped on it and nominated it for a record eleven Academy Awards. Basically, everyone in the film, (except the janitor) is nominated. None, including Yeoh, Quan, Hsu, and Curtis, do anything in the film that is deserving of a nomination. All nominations are solely to push this Asian affirmative action agenda.

The film is a thoroughly confusing, badly acted, terribly scripted set of scenes, that make absolutely no sense whatsoever. The movie is like watching a video game that you can’t follow. The story is set the director's multiverse, which is vast with various worlds that are all based on every human decision ever made. For every choice, a new universe is created, branching off into its own thing. Lot's of video editing that incorporates characters' silliness and fighting that all ends up back in the ole laundromat.

I viewed it for free on FIOS where they didn't have the guts to charge for a rental. After 1/2 hour, I grabbed a beer so I could give it a chance and get through it. Maybe I wasn't "woke" enough to enjoy it. :facepalm:

This movie was widely acclaimed here on this site as well as by both critics and fans across all platforms. Of course no movie will be loved by everyone, but read the room and avoid blanket statements that are almost universally disagreed with.

I can’t stand woke. I hate “representationism”. But I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. And thought it was a worthy Oscar winner.

I can't find where it was widely acclaimed on this site. Each to his own. But what did you like about it?

It was unique-ish (nothing is unique in Hollywood anymore). It was funny. It was cool seeing Data as an adult. It was probably the best handled multiverse movie ever (Spiderman was good, but the story was very holey).
