Here’s my ballot lol

why’d Jimmy Kimmel call Ryan Gosling and RDJ hot and not Cillian Murphy

*Jimmy Kimmel attempts a murder hornets joke in 2024*

Okay some last minute bonus predictions:

- Oppenheimer will inexplicably miss 1 or 2 awards everyone assumed it’d get
- Barbie will win all the awards I think Poor Things should win
- my predictions won’t be very accurate

Da’Vine Joy Randolph 👍👍

“Wow that guy looks like John L- oh”

His voice really sounds just like John’s damn

BOY AND THE HERON LFGGGGGG

no offense to Spiderverse because I love Spiderverse but Boy and the Heron is such a gem aaaaaAAAAAA

Anatomy of a Fall niiiiice

didn’t have a chance to see American Fiction before the award show but I plan to do so eventually

Past Lives is another one I wish I saw before today, would love to see it soon

yeah Poor Things is 100% the correct choice here lol

(surprised by how agreeable I've found the awards up to this point lol)

Damn assumed they'd give this one to Barbie (and wouldn't have even been mad, Barbie's production design is great) but hell yessssss another Poor Things W

imagine being given an oscar by a nude john cena

Poor Things Triple W i am grinning from ear to ear

look i knew it was gonna be zone of interest (can't blame them, it's fantastic), but i'm biased and wish it was perfect days lmao (perfect days was my favourite non-animated film of 2023)

god imagine if the oscars were brave and nominated john wick 4 (easily one of the best films of last year) for literally anything

delighted to see Ke Huy Quan on stage here

fun fact, the only thing i knew RDJ from (before seeing Oppenheimer) was Iron Man and Sherlock Holmes LOL

one thing i love about Anatomy of a Fall is that it reminds me so much of TÁR (easily my favourite film of 2022), god remember when the Oscars completely snubbed TÁR? i remember that

GODZILLA MINUS ONE W LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG LFG

Oppenheimer W also damn this category is especially tough to pick from, each of these nominees were edited beautifully IMO

I'm afraid I didn't see any of the documentary picks this year, I will get to them I promise

the decision to end that with an orchestral cover of I'm Just Ken

unsurprising Oppenheimer W, looks phenomenal what can you even say

i haven't seen henry sugar but desperately wanna see it (only Wes Anderson i've ever seen is Asteroid City but I think that movie's magnificent, wanna catch up on his other stuff ASAP)

goddamn they gave it to Zone of Interest, hell yeah

I put Oppenheimer on my ballot but i bet i would have voted for Zone of Interest had I seen it in theatres

i know it's probably bad that Ryan Gosling is my favourite part of Barbie but like, hear me out here,

is that Slash lol

hell yeah Oppenheimer W, such a gorgeous score idk what else to say -- also lol at the dial of destiny nom

Billie Eilish: "Thank you to everyone affected by this amazing movie-"

my friend J: "thought she was gonna say 'affected by COVID'"

my friend Z: "that's not what Barbie is about"

kinda hoped Paul Giamatti would win Best Actor but Murphy is obviously incredible too, also agree with the Best Directing pick (though again, extremely stacked nominee list)

daaaaamn i really hoped that was going to Lily Gladstone, Emma Stone was fantastic don't get me wrong but like, Gladstone was the driving force of KotFM for me. First real "wow yeah i super disagree with this" of the night for me

Oppenheimer was one of my favourites of last year (behind Perfect Days + The Boy and The Heron) and probably my favourite on that list. Bombing-related stuff can be hard for me to watch, but I'm glad I saw it, rocked me to the core.
