Thor 7,459 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 I didn't stay up to watch this. I never have. Besides, there was no way to watch it for free on television or streaming platforms over here. So peculiar to wake up to all these news. Norwegians were mostly interested in the two noms for THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD. Sadly, it got none. While DRIVE MY CAR is a fine film, it's nowhere near the Trier film. And the less said about BELFAST (which won the script over WORST PERSON), the better. I'm very thrilled that Zimmer won for DUNE. It was not only the single score nom I felt was deserved this year, it was also my second favourite score of last year. That it annoys this board's many Zimmer haters is just an added bonus. The Smith/Rock situation was bizarre. I've only seen the brief clips, which -- as alluded to above -- seem to indicate him laughing first, then suddenly turning. If it's real, and I'm going to assume it was, it was very bad behaviour, despite Rock's perhaps tasteless joke. But then I've always found Smith a bit wonky.

You seriously think the awards go to who is actually the best nowadays? Most of the awards go to the nominees who fill out the most diversity and inclusion checkboxes. I already knew before they read the winners it was going to be Encanto, the deaf sign language actor, the woman director , Will Smith to make up for the unexpected win of Anthony Hopkins over Chadwick Bosman last year, the latin-X actress for West Side story and Jessica Chastain because her role was somewhat LGBTQ related.

Quintus 5,399 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Gotta feel for "CODA" after Smith stole all the attention away from their win. Although to be fair I had never heard of the film prior to this. Smith's acceptance speech (before his apology)... he's clearly gone now, he's left us. Consumed by his sense of "humble" self-importance and duty as a river to the people. bruce marshall 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen people compare it favourably to Sound of Metal, which is ludicrous. Fair play to them, though; they got their nomination. I hope it wins! Haha...this win is hilarious. That was a pleasant surprise. 7 hours ago, KK said: [Belfast] Looks like an Irish knockoff of Roma. If only it were! Might have had something interesting stylistically at least.

Popular Post Richard Penna 3,667 Posted March 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 28, 2022 I agree with the radio host I'm currently listening to, who suggested he should've taken Rock aside later on and expressed his reservations and asked him to apologise to Jada. Also, had he done that with a female host (as opposed to an acquaintance he may have history with), he'd be in serious trouble now, with the current problems we have with male violence towards women. Even with Rock though, between guys, massively wrong. It was a completely stupid and ill-judged move.

JTN 2,002 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Let’s hope next year the Best Original Score Oscar will go to an actual Music score. No wonder even Zimmer didn’t care to attend and went on tour instead and reacted in his bathrobe. I’m sure he co-wrote the “music” to Dune sitting in the bathtub and even he knows at this point what a hack he is. It’s the biggest disgrace since the 2006 snub of Williams’ MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA.
