Sorry but this is one of the worst takes I have seen.

One of the only upsides to this political turmoil has been a bunch of people I suspected to be terrible outing themselves as terrible.

I don't think he would argue with you on that count.

Hmmm, actually I think the issue here is that Return of the King remains a brilliant example in marrying terrific performances, big budget spectacle, and cutting edge technological advancements, whereas Civil War was simply another dull, assembly line, Marvel popcorn movie?

Phew!

The Witch is this year's It Follows.

I think you're forgetting: It has black people in it, and they help white people! *ducks*

Not to generalize but if you're the kind of person who has seen all three of those movies why do you give a fuck about the Oscars?

Look it isn't Tree of Life or whatever—but it's a children's movie, with talking animals, and I was very surprised by how it tripped up my expectations and didn't just groove an easy moral down the middle, which would have been very easy to do.

If they trimmed 20 minutes out of Silence and re-cast Neeson I would so be there for it.

They went back to the Ask for Forgiveness well one too many times.

Sorry, but Liam Neeson a fuck bore in that movie.

She stinks!

Content, sure, but it's not like S4 was totally without merit, and it's definitely not like I didn't have 12 hours to spare of my miserably empty life to watch it.

Imagine deciding that the solution to S4's problems — where they could never get the whole of this insanely talented cast together in one room — was to ditch the insanely talented cast all together?

The lesson of Zootopia is not "prejudice is bad", but the far more nuanced idea that "prejudice is complicated".

Birth of a Nation sucked.

I didn't dig it as much as you, apparently, but if ever a film deserved a Production Design nomination, it was Silence.

This is kind of adjacent to your point, but I absolutely love how Ali's character just kind of disappears out of the narrative without hardly a remark, even when he goes back to Theresa's as a teenager.

Natalie Portman is lethally good in Jackie.
