Jesus Christ, don't let them watch Taxi Driver, I don't think they can handle it.

"Outstanding," "Irresponsible": Oscar Voters React to 'Joker,' With Many Avoiding It
- Thread starter Concelhaut
- Start date
No real difference between people who cheer and clap for Polanski while romanticizing Joe Pa.
Soo...thousands of oscas voters are all "unbelievabley stupid"?
Why do forum dwellers think they're smarter than everyone else? Jesus christ
I still don't know whether to interpret that quote as an "I'm scared what the media told me, gotta sit by an emergency exit" or "I want to get ready to leave it's so bad".
The bare minimum is just to watch the darn thing and make your OWN opinion, not based off the media, movie critics, or directors' takes.
Except the one about how its portrayal of the mentally ill is irresponsible is exactly correct.
that one seems weird to me, if you don't like joyless movies thats fine, but i don't know if you should criticize a movie for something its not trying to be
i mean when i watch something like a Tarkovsky movie im not disappointed that im not having 'fun', because thats not the type of movie its supposed to be
maybe you can expand on what you meant by this
If the complaints are that the Joker is made out to be sympathetic and a character you can like, I not only call bullshit, but there have been countless terrible people written with charm or some type of alluring quality that the audience could see themselves liking (i.e., Walter and Soprano).
This thread is hilarious. Y'all are always talking about how Marvel movies aren't shit and that people need to accept when critics don't care for them, but when this movie gets any kind of backlash you all act like the sky is falling.
Also, if you care about the issue of racism and them pushing for Green Book to win, maybe stanning for this movie and comparing it to Blackkklansmen getting snubbed isn't the way to go.

Just wait until they find out what Jennifer Aniston just said lol
These are actual Oscar voter quotes? Can they seriously, so blatantly, judge film by its cover?
The mentality in those quotes is archaic, no?

I still haven't seen it because I'm not interested in a Joker origin story, especially as it seems like they just slapped the Joker name on a different movie. Phoenix didn't even want anything Batman-related in the movie which tells me he was embarrassed to make a comic book film. I maybe would have been interested if Scorsese directed this but a hack like Phillips? No thanks.
Not to mention they are usually for movies no one has fucking watched. I remember a poll where only 2% of viewers had watched all the nominees for best picture. And only like 30% had watched even a SINGLE movie.
I get it isn't a popularity contest, but if you're just going to celebrate movies no one has any interest in watching prime time seems like the wrong place to do it. The viewership will just keep dropping. Maybe not every year, but over time it will.
Didn't produce, but did give Todd some feedback on the script and let him borrow Emma Tillinger (Marty's producer) after they were done filming The Irishman.
These are the same people that gave Driving Miss Daisy 2: The Electric Boogaloo movie of the year last here. So here's a huge grain of salt for them.
Ah yes, I've been waiting to hear from the group that gave 4 Oscars to Bohemian Rhapsody, the critically panned film directed by a child rapist. Wait, they are the same group that awarded Best Picture to the socially deaf Green Book? They sure know about them movies!
Jesus Christ...
Song of the Sea is like one of the best animated movies ever. I can't how ignorant that comment is.
