It's nominated for things it should be nominated for... Not like it has a best actor nomination...



Agree.

Is Wind River really that good? Going to have to watch that shit right away I guess.

This ceremony is always a joke. No reason to care about the opinions of these kinds of people, but it doesn't seem like anything is that out of place. There weren't that many great movies this past year. I haven't seen Wind River yet, so maybe my mind will change and I'll feel like there was at least one major snub (there usually is). I do feel like anyone complaining about Dunkirk is clueless though. Anyone who was expecting Saving Private Ryan has only themselves to blame for not knowing anything about history, and the things it got nominated for are things that make sense. The other thing is I just don't understand the hate for Get Out. Only sensible argument/problems I've heard are about the trailers showing farrrrrrrrrrr too much of the story, but if you went into that movie blind like I did and like most critics did (or even without being blind), it was a well done movie with strong performances, an entertaining story, and enough of a twist to make a horror movie not too painfully predictable, like the majority of films within the genre. It was solid all around, and as I already stated, in an otherwise weak year, of course an above average movie with a black lead who did a great job and a black director is going to get some Oscar love in 2018, that's just commonsense. You fucks saw the ratings Black Panther got right? That movie wasn't even good lol.

Honestly I think Dunkirk is probably one of the best actual war movies out there. I really didn't enjoy watching it, it was just a depressing mess to me. But I mean that's part of the reason as to why it's a good movie.

Wind River is great, also I'm biased because I think Renner is awesome (easily the best/only good part of the Avengers movies).

It's a tense and moving film, also the end has a pay off that you rarely get. It feels right and...not at the same time. Can't really say more without ruining it, even that might be a bit much.

I'll watch it within the week and lyk. I also love Renner. Even that terrible Bourne movie was made watchable by him being in it.

Winners List:



Shape of Water was pretty good but not "Best Picture" worthy in my opinion.

I enjoyed Wind River quite alot, great thriller, great soundtrack and great suspension. But crime thrillers aren't oscar material and nominations are just politics, maybe the message at the end in Wind River wasn't loud enough for the Academy.

Wind River is elite level film. It is now on Netflix fyi

Did you not see Three Billboards or I, Tonya? Those were some really great films. I’d put those 3 as must see

Meh why


It’s predictable and straight forward

It's almost as if... different people have different opinions?

I, Tonya was great, and nope, I haven't seen Three Billboards yet. Movie watching time has been pretty shit for the past year, I'm hoping to catch up on a few once my break starts here in a couple weeks.

Still seemed like there was still only a handful of great movies throughout the year, and all of them but Wind River at least got a little Oscar love.





If you praise the Transformer franchise, or everything with the Rock, and rag on everything that's even somewhat popular, your opinions are just bad. Call it opinion all you want, but it's painfully obvious which type of people fall into the category of viewers who feel the way he does.

another movie I believe should have been recognized for an Oscar is ‘only the brave’

That was probably my #1 from last year
