@glindanora Mikey is getting high praise. And coming from a movie where the director’s terrible movies get Oscar nominations (Being The Ricardo’s performances weren’t even praised and yet it still got a shocking 3 acting Oscar nominations)
@fed_fan81@mrbrianrowe I genuinely feel so gaslit. Like it’s all one big joke and the some of us didn’t get the memo. Because Obsession?? OSCAR WORTHY?? Be so fking for real!
@fed_fan81@mrbrianrowe I think they're paying a lot of people. People are talking about this movie like it's the greatest film of all time. I feel so gaslit. I watched this movie 8 times because I felt certainly I was missing SOMETHING. I wasn't. It’s a bleh low budget horror movie and nothing more.
@inisherinbaddie@mrbrianrowe Exactly. And I’m not a hater, I wanted to love Obsession, but it’s beyond silly to talk about this in awards conversation. I haven’t been able to watch my favorite awards season YouTubers because I know they’re gonna talk about it and I feel gaslit. I feel like I’m being tricked.
@bonesandaII And Aaron Sorkin’s last film was ridiculed and still got 3 Oscar acting noms for Best Actress, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actor. The Academy seems to love him regardless.
@JeronJimenez@DiscussingFilm Not until recently had horror had enough options to make a horror category worthy. And we could go years without enough good horror films that the category would be useless. That’s why only Drama and Comedy or Musical exist.
@DiscussingFilm Not shocked that nearly every single person that thinks this movie is awards worthy has no idea how awards season works. It only had the choice of drama or comedy. They likely made this decision based on it being classified a horror comedy.
@justInwuah The French loved her performance and they’re known for being more “pretentious” I’ve heard great things about her performance actually. Ppl on here may talk shit but I don’t think the critics will talk badly about her.
@swerveinmone The fact that she’s actually getting praise makes me think she could get that 2nd Oscar nom. Sorkin’s films that were critical failures still got Oscar noms. His last one did terrible critically and still got 3 Oscar acting noms.
