Wtf do you mean "criminally ignored on this thread"?

I raved about it when it first came out. I'm sure I said it was the best film of the year that year and a masterpiece. Two actors at the height of their talents.

If people decide to ignore my often essential information then that's down to them.

I only supply the information. It's up to you lot to act on it accordingly.
-----‐----------------------------------------------------------------------

Tonight is Oscars night and so i thought I'd indulge myself in telling the Academy who they should pick for the honours if they were as sensible as me.

So....

Best director.

Damien Chazzelle.will win this for La La Land because Hollywood loves a film that celebrates...Hollywood. Me, i really don't get these modern musicals. ****s bursting into song at the drap of a hat doesn't float ma boat.

So i would probably go for Denis Villenueve of those who are nominated. Arrival is pretty spectacular it has to be said.

Best supporting actress.

For me Viola Davis should win this out the park. Her performance in Fences is fantastic.

Best supporting actor.

Hard one to call this. Some fine performances from the nominees.

Dev Patel in lion and Lucas Hedges in Manchester by the sea are both great but it has to be Micheal Shannon's performance in Nocturnal animals. Total standout in film with a particular excellent cast.

Best animated feature.

Haven't seen all the films that have been nominated but Kubo and the two strings is a masterpiece and if that doesn't won then i will certainly be watching the film that does.

Best actress.

Emma.Stone will win this. Natalie Portman"s display in Jackie is well worth a gong though

Best actor

Another doozy.

Of those nominated i would give it to Denzel for Fences just because it's Denzel.

Casey Afleck in Manchester by the sea is excellent though and i wouldn't be at all upset if he won it.

Best picture.

If it was me then i would give this gong to Fences.

Manchester by the sea at a pinch.

Certainly not La La land. So that will probably win it.

Nae accounting for taste eh

Just watched the first one of that American nightmare

Seemed like an interesting story but we both couldn't put up with the whole American soap opera build up and suspenseful music to literally every bit of information, that was delivered in some poundland tarantino /guy Richie fashion.

****ed the rest off.






In other news Netflix has revamped He-man masters of the universe.

Might watch that this week

I agree with you ... but you should have stuck it out ... let's just say it doesn't reflect well on US law enforcement by the end ... in fact it's almost unbelievable... except it actually did happen...

Just seen the trailer to Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, looks like it’s got a bit of the Inglorious Basterds about it, right up my street.

Detectorists 9.7/10

How the fck have I managed to miss this!!!

Superb series. The Beeb at its finest. Binged 2 series and about to put on the last.

And this has to be THE BEST theme song to any series ever. Just goes so well with the feel of the drama/comedy.

Bird Box: Barcelona 7.4/10

Sequel to the original.

It's slow to get going. More than decent after that, so worth the watch.
