This is why I no longer watch the awards. The Oscars were the only awards show I watched for years (gave up on the Grammys when Jethro Tull won for best metal. As if). I’ll read who won the next day.

Hey, you think Robbie got robbed by Gosling, what more did Barry Keogh have to do?

“American Fiction” had two acting noms not named here. Please spill the tea.

"The Academy loves when actors wear a fake nose, screw up their skin, and gain or lose 100 pounds (extra points for both)."

It reminds me of how Christian Bale got robbed for "The Machinist."

Great write-up!

Da’vine Randolph has to win. Lots of dignity, yet a palpable sense of fun.

Thank you for this Stephen. Barbie was far and away my favorite film of 2023 and I think it's a shame that Gerwig and Robbie got snubbed in the director and actor categories. They both brought outstanding performances in their respective roles in creating this magical film and I can only hope they win best picture to acknowledge that fact.
