Frankly, for the most part, I don't really care who wins the Oscars except for a couple of people. I do have a rooting interest with Brad Pitt, but, that's mainly because I love his character in the movie. Also, I think Deakins deserves his second Oscar as he did great camera work in "1917"...
I have no dog in this fight, but it would be funny to see 1917 not win because of the aftermath that will follow from certain HTF members.:) The Oscars lost me 20 something years ago when Saving Private Ryan didn't win BP. Since then, I'm done with them.
One post has been deleted and a member given a two week thread ban for injecting politics into this discussion. This was the second post in a different thread by that member today that injected some kind of political reference. We're not playing that game here!
Probably because some of us disagree with you labeling a movie that doesn't fit your film taste "garbage". Not to admonish you in any way, but I don't like that term and wouldn't use it for movies that I don't have any interest in seeing because it doesn't fit my film preference.
IMO, words...
