Amazing

Seriously. Just when I thought that I'd seen every way to direct a boxing match he comes out with the one-take (I'm still shocked that it took this long for someone to try that). He was able to make the movie feel right at home in the Rocky universe while also letting it feel distinctly like it's own thing. I can't

I love Jordan and I thought he was great in Creed but I don't know if he was Oscar-Worthy. I'd put the kid from Beasts of No Nation in Redmayne's spot before him. Admittedly I also haven't seen the Danish Girl so I can't honestly say that he doesn't deserve the nod.

Kumiko: The Treasure Hunter. Did festival runs in 2014 but it was officially released in 2015. I definitely recommend it.

I stand corrected then. Still hilarious though.

Unless I'm mistaken I think he's the first person ever to get a Razzie nod and an Oscar nod in the same year

Outside of the overwhelming and totally unsurprising whiteness of it all, I can't say that I'm too mad at the list this year. I appreciate that the Academy had the balls to give Mad Max so much love despite it being a genre film and if there was ever a year for Leo to take home the gold this is it. Also I think that

…I'll allow it

Yeah the "wise-cracking, fun loving scamp" gimmick goes against everything about Roman's whole appeal and mystique. I, personally, think that he is charismatic but his charisma lies more in his physicality and expressions.

Seeing Liv's "vision face" from the outside was adorable and hilarious

SPIKE couldn't change if it wanted to lmao

The White Man

I still think he was robbed of an Oscar nod for Whiplash. He was every bit as good as Simmons to me, JK was just in a better position to steal scenes.

Yeah, Jordan & Coogler not only have a wonderful creative chemistry but he was able to give Creed it's own distinct organic feel while still making it work within the Rocky universe. Him not being involved would be a tragedy indeed.

Crack Panther II

I actually loved 42. It felt like a superhero origin story which I really dug.

Excuse you but Black Panther is easily amongst the pantheon of important black folk! lol

Yeah I wonder that myself. Then again it's not like they'd have any real competition at this point outside of the Dudley Boyz since E' almost never does heel vs heel.

It's time to bring Enzo & Cass up to the main roster. It's honestly a bit too late to put the NXT Tag Titles on them at this point (should've happened WAY back tbh) and they're the only tag team down there outside of American Alpha that could get over with the casual audience without any tweaking. Plus they'd be
