Movie Awards : I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

And I usually see all of them and have been for the last 30 years.

I do know that even 100 nominations won't make me see Ma Rainey's big Fat black Ass.

Does it help to know that you are not alone?

You asked a pretty question; I've given you the ugly answer.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I think Oscar will feel lonely himself this year, because I doubt many will even bother to tune in. I haven't missed a ceremony since 1984, this year I will watch clips of winners on you tube if I feel the inclination to be interested after the fact.

Norman! What did you put in my tea?

That makes two of us.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

It was a weird year. A few of the nominees for best picture weren't even released officially until last month.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I have seen one of the films with Oscar nominations and that is Emma which has 2: costumes and hair/makeup. Haven't seen any of the picture nominees and likely won't. None of them really interest me, except for The Trial Of The Chicago Seven.

I guess it couldn't be helped due to the plandemic and films have been nominated for the sake of it to have an award season for Oscar.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I’ve seen Minari, Trial of Chicago Thugs, Promising Slutty Woman, A 2-hour conversation in a Miami Hotel Room, Judas and the Heartbreakers, and Sound of Metal.

I want to see nomadland

Monster, how should I feel? Creatures lie here, looking through the window.

Yeah, I have not seen any of them either.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

It's funny you say that, I tend to be in the same exact spot every year but this year, I just haven't gotten around to watch a single one. 2020 was a strange year for film.. and personally, was the worst year of my life (COVID happened which effected everyone, my mother died of pancreatic cancer, my dog died, had to deal with chronic stomach pain for about 6 months), so for a while, watching a film or series wasn't on my radar when I usually watched many, many yearly films and I'm still sort of catching up. Although, I do plan on watching them.. even have some of them lined up to watch soon. Just haven't gotten around to it.

LE TEMPS DETRUIT TOUT.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

Count me in on that too.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I watched half of Mank, but found it turgid and just generally extremely dull. The acting is good, but it’s uneventful and I gave up halfway through.

I’m going to try Nomadland today. Haven’t seen any of the others.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I've seen 6 of the films nominated for best picture and some of the other films nominated in the other categories.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

So what was the best film of the year.

The only poster who had his account banned 4 times without ever breaking any rules each of those times.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I think Nomadland was the best of the year.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I love Frances as an actor. But even she can't shake the vibe I'm getting about that film.

The vibe that it tried to throw a bone to Trump supporters by showing the " Forgotten " Americans. I voted for President Trump twice.

I just don't like blatant pandering and that sure seems like it. Unless you can tell me I'm wrong. Since you have actually seen it and I have not.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

I don't think Nomadland is trying to pander to Trump supporters at all. People of any political view or affiliation can appreciate and enjoy the film. The film is really well acted and engaging. I would definitely recommend checking it out.

Re: I haven't seen not even 1 of the Oscar nominated Films

Me neither. Nowadays I wait 'til they are aired on TV.
