Aftersun ending: Paul Mescal movie has the best final shot in years.
In this substack we LOVE and APPRECIATE Paul Mescal

Oscar nominations are IN, and boy am I happy to be here. Allison Willams (star of M3gan, and singer of Yeโ€™s Stronger) and Riz Ahmed (Sound of Metal) presented Oscar nominations before I was even strong enough to remove myself from bed this morning.

You can see the full list here.

๐Ÿ† Judโ€™s Oscar Hopefuls

Everything Everywhere All At Once' Is A24's Highest-Grossing Movie  Worldwide โ€“ Deadline

Everything Everywhere All at Once
I am most excited for Everything Everywhere All At Once, which I was unsure if it would still stick in voters mind after being released in April, has racked up 11 nominations, the most of any film. I would love love love for EEAO to sweep, but tempering my expectations.

Paul Mescal
I havenโ€™t had the chance to watch Aftersun yet because I invited some friends to come over and watch a screening of it, and my friends instead wanted to talk about dating apps for two hours and we missed the time window to watch it and iโ€™m still bitter about it.

However I love Paul Mescal: I still can slam through Normal People in one sitting for a good cry and I canโ€™t wait to listen to Phoebe Bridgers sing about breaking up with Paul, then waking up weeks later to see heโ€™s nominated for Best Actor.

๐Ÿ˜ก Judโ€™s Snubs

Mamma Mia returning to theaters for 10th anniversary screenings | EW.com

Mamma Mia should have been nominated for best picture even though it was released in 2008.

I had really hoped for some awards for NOPE this year โ€” I think the thriller/horror category really limits a lot of voters interest, but Jordan Peele has so much to give and I think think itโ€™s one of his most accessible, fun films. and of course, Keke Palmer.

NOPE said in no uncertain terms that Hollywood is a spectacle machine that ruins everything it touches, breaks good people and chews up living things, spitting whatโ€™s left all over the Southern California landscape. Academy members:

๐Ÿฆนโ€โ™‚๏ธ This Years Oscar Villain

Austin Butlerโ€™s fake Elvis accent is going to mysteriously disappear within 24 hours of the oscars ending, I just know it. Frankly, Iโ€™m just worn out by biopicโ€™s exclusively designed to net awardsโ€“ Elvis is no exception. Though I love and appreciate Baz Luhrmannโ€™s dedication to maximalism, Iโ€™m getting tired and Iโ€™m going to be bummed if Elvis takes home more than it deserves.

Blonde was definitively bad and Ana de Armas getting a best actress nomination does not make any sense IMO. Iโ€™m sorry!


Unfortunately I am insufferable, so please stay tuned for more Oscar coverage to come. Maybe Iโ€™ll make a special ๐Ÿ”— Links edition Oscar Ballot?
