    only straight ppl would think it's beautiful to never acknowledge gayness.
    Noah Schnapp on The Duffers’ approach to Will’s sexuality in #StrangerThings “I feel like they never really address it or blatantly say how Will is. I think that’s the beauty of it, that it’s just up to the audience’s interpretation.” (Source: variety.com/2022/tv/news/s…)

    i really dont want HBOMax to die. People really dont seem to grasp that they're the only major streaming platform that believes movies made before 2000 exist.

    like i watch a lot of hulu and netflix but they completely suck in comparison if you care about the history of the medium and not just whatever came out last year.

    all that said whoever is charge needs to be fired because they dont seem to grasp why HBO has always been well regarded. Hint: it's not because of cheap-to-produce reality shows that you can get basically anywhere.

    I mean, who can blame him when he gave a master class performance and got beat by basic lip-synching?
    With so much Oscar season experience under his belt, Bradley Cooper has learned something important about the awards circuit: It’s “utterly meaningless.” Here's what he had to say: bit.ly/3bmDlbD

    some fun trivia to leave you with: - Guillermo del Toro's win means Mexican directors have won Best Director four out of the last five years! - Jordan Peele is the first black winner of Best Original Screenplay - James Ivory is the oldest Oscar winner ever at 89

    i would understand this perspective except for the fact that the show is *very* explicit and has been since season 1 about the sexuality of the straight characters. We're constantly in their relationships and crushes and whatnot. So why should it be different for a gay character?

    if PARASITE isn't nominated for editing and production design... we should riot.
    i cant believe this scene exists like a human being sat down, thought about it, wrote and directed it x.com/offbrandwagner…

    that TÁR and NOPE aren't on the Oscar shortlist for Sound and that EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE isn't in the Visual Effects shortlist is just such a sobering reminder that the Academy's imagination can be severely limited when it comes to those categories.

    Somewhat lost in the hubbub last nite, partially due to @TheAcademy’s disrespect of the demoted categories, is the fact that Riz Ahmed is now an Oscar winner! Other famous actors who have won this category include Christine Lahti, Ray McKinnon, and Peter Capaldi

    It's grossly unfair that y'all get a new Batman every few years to claim is the "best yet" but there are no semi-annual reboots of THE HOURS with a different trio of prestige actresses each time.

    I'm so tired of every blockbuster people like getting the "it should be nominated for Best Picture!" treatment. Do you all really want the Oscars to be aspire to be... "The People's Choice Awards"?
