Behind the Green Door for best actress?:a20:

I did get some scenes of almost naked presenter for Costume Design. I had flipped the channel.

It went about how it was expected to go but they were good about keeping them on a rather tight time schedule.

Has anyone seen all of the Best Picture nominees?
If not, how many did you see?

There was a time that I would see every Best Picture nominee. But that was long ago and there were only 5 movies nominated. This year, I haven’t even heard of most of the nominated movies.

OPPENHEIMER

AMERICAN FICTION

ANATOMY OF A FALL

BARBIE

THE HOLDOVERS

KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON

MAESTRO

PAST LIVES

POOR THINGS

THE ZONE OF INTEREST

another Hollywood award show, honoring and praising each other at taxpayer expense. the fake laughter, and phony awards to people who are real losers...the Hollywood crowd, do as I say, not as I do.

Two of them but am working on getting to most of the other ones.

I did not watch, used to many years ago, then got fed up with the continual yapping. BUT I do like to see the clothes they are all wearing and found a site online that had the clothing for both men and women. Have to say this is the ugliest bunch of dresses I have seen in a long time, and all (make that most) of the very young men looked very effeminate - maybe this is the fashion nowadays.

so you DID see PoorThings? :1rotfl:

That was exactly the response I expected to find on here.

I saw Killers of the Flower Moon and Oppenheimer. Not impressed with the latter. As someone who worked in Hollywood, I still don't understand how they choose the winners.

I'm afraid I need to disagree with you. I worked in Hollywood for over 20 years and they are a bunch of hard working, decent people. They don't deserve you negative criticism.

Tustin714, How did your new antenna work? Were you able to watch the Oscars? Was it a table top model?

I certainly agree with that. Of the movies up for best picture this year, I would have put Oppenheimer near the bottom of the Top Ten films. Hollywood has all kinds of people but most probably are very hardworking and who have a strong sense of right and wrong.

After paying $20 for Oppenheimer, I still haven't finished watching it. The first half was so boring that I fell asleep and I have
not gotten around to watching the rest of it.

So it was scheduled for delivery "up until 9pm" :) but arrived mid-afternoon -- it was not table top but the type with a large square receiver you can put in the window, or rest on the back of a couch. Anyway, it only drew in 5 channels (only Fox was a major channel), even though we tried it at both ends of the home (north and south) and facing east and west, to catch Orlando or northern transmitters. No luck.

So my wife started watching the Oscars unlocked channel by ABC, before I left to play trivia. When I returned she said the channel had shut off as the show started, so she let the internet keep her up date to date as she texted with the kids (all of whom filled out ballots in the attempt to win the traditional box of Raisinets :)).

In the end, our son who is traveling in Spain won, even though he was asleep during the show! Meanwhile, I recovered $3 of my $5 trivia fee (tied for 1st place, incredibly, until the last question), so that beat the Oscars! :)
