La La La: An Oscars thread

So far, I've seen one of 2016's major-award-winning moves. Batman v Superman won four Razzies.
Razzies announces winners - CNN.com
If "A Man Called Ove" wins the foreign film Oscar, I will have seen two award winners. That's the only other one I've seen that's in contention. I need to get out more.

 

Loved "The Artist".

 

They already have those awards. They are the Academy Awards show.

This thing is even more of a dinosaur than the Grammys. Factor in the political speeches/smug, and it will be another overblown production.

 

Note: I also posted this on the "Last movie..." thread:

I'm not sure it will win the Best Picture Oscar -- it might be too quiet, or without enough of a "cause" for that -- but I saw "Lion" today, and really liked it.

I'm thinking/hoping, it may be "Fences" for the win in something of an upset, actually. But it will probably be "Moonlight" or "La La Land".

 

Of the Best Picture noms, I've seen Arrival, Hacksaw Ridge, Moonlight, and Hell or High Water. I enjoyed Arrival and Hell or High Water the most, but I thought Moonlight was the better film. Extremely well written, shot, acted. I am kinda hoping it wins, but it doubt it will. It seems like La La Land is going to win everything. Snore.

 

Moonlight really ran through every social angst angle. Bullying, race, homosexuality, drugs, black kids not having fathers, masculinity.

I couldn't stand it, but it probably wins.

 

Fat Oscar is KC style? Nice!

 

Most socially aware movie since this one:

 

Tonight's big winner will be the first movie that Kimmel has to admit he watched.

 

I laughed at his takedown of that Meryl Streep, who has mailed it in for more than 50 films.

Also, now we can talk about ACADEMY AWARD WINNING FILM Suicide Squad, so hell is freezing over.

 

I'll tell ya what: The spotlight sort of stops when it lands on Janelle Monae. She has "it."

 

Curious: Wasn't the OJ documentary a made-for-TV thing, or did it get into a theater? Or does that matter?
