Topic: Movie thread.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Well they chose Spider-Verse so they must have some taste.

Then again Pinocchio is kick-ass, Turning Red is pretty good in my opinion, and the other movies look quality, so I'd understand Puss not winning.

@HotGoomba well I meant as best picture. Puss 2 and spiderverse at least deserve to to get nominated for best picture. And I won’t be mad if Puss looses best animated feature to pinnoicio it was also amazing

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Yeah it's been pretty insulting seeing animated features not being nominated for best picture.

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika @HotGoomba One day they shall be a main picture nomination! One day...

@SlashFuture @HotGoomba the academy has always been full of stuck up biased suits. You can list shows ans movies that just get snubbed for no reason. For instance better call saul. It’s just sad that pride stops some shows from getting the recognition they deserve. I shouldn’t care about stuff winning awards because they really don’t mean much but I still find myself caring anyways

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Being a Star Wars fan, I've sadly been used to the snub for years ..

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Better Call Saul shouldn't win an Oscar since it's a tv show and Oscars are for movies. It has won multiple Emmys which if the high bar of telly awards.

Bias works both ways, it's all well and good complaining they are neglecting low rent cartoons and superhero movies through snobbery when you're skipping nuanced and thought provoking dramas and thrillers. Women Talking, Tar and The Banshees of Inisherin are all great films deserving of praise and considering Everything Everywhere the movie genre geek film of choice this year has been backed hard and nominating Top Gun and Avatar they have made concessions for the lowest common denominator.

There’s nothing wrong with only liking cartoons and superheroes films but it gets so boring listening to people pretend that is all and the best of cinema.

@SlashFuture Star Wars has won a Best Movie Oscar though.

Especially when there are threads dedicated to the topics, but it permeates everything. Hey-ho

@jump better call saul hasn’t won a single emmy. I just used it as an example of how the academy can be biased

@SlashFuture wrong thread but clone wars season 7 deserved all the emmys for the siege of mandalore

I really liked Triangle of Sadness and Banshees of Inisherin. Hope they are gonna win some stuff

@jump still not great that the show only won 2 emmys for its marketing material the actual show still doesn’t have one.

@jump Ah my apologies, I didn't mean that it wasn't nominated, just that it hasn't won a Best Picture at the Oscars/Emmys(I'm having trouble differentiating the two right now...) ... Although it did win a Saturn, so that's something!
@EaglyTheKawaiiShika YES, thank you! The Siege of Mandalore is a piece of art! Glad someone else recognizes that!

@gcunit @Jump

"Woody Allen's Annie Hall won the Oscar for Best Picture, beating out George Lucas' Star Wars."

I don't even really get why people act like the Oscars matter. Award shows are always biased, and I don't get the value in them when the only opinion that truly matters is your own for the most part.

@VoidofLight Yeah, I never watch each year... The only reason I found out about last year was because of the Will Smith slap...

@VoidofLight Because they look cool on a windshield.

@HotGoomba front or back

@Kermit1 yes
