They also asked critics that don't work anymore as J. Hoberman, and Jonathan Rosenbaum. And metacritic just count the most mainstream critics, that's because they usually just have 40 reviews for blockbusters instead of +350 like in RT
Alexander Edwards
is it not out yet? where are the torrents this year?
Jace Phillips
>Alden Ehrenreich, Hail, Caesar! – 165 this is my pick too, he was very good in this movie
Bentley Myers
>Hell or High Water at number 9 >Not number 1 Why are critics such plebs?
Liam Bell
is Paterson worth watching? I'm guessing nah.
Zachary Wilson
It sounds like a generic story about a nigger growing up in the hood but the twist is that he's a faggot too. What am I missing?
Matthew Gray
>What am I missing? Good taste
Brody Cook
Found the niggerfaggot
Tyler Mitchell
>1. Moonlight – 967
Dave Chappelle was right about Hollywood
Jaxson Young
What you're "missing" is that you haven't watched the fucking movie you dumb nigger, you're bitching about the damn synopsis
Jaxson Green
Have you seen it? What more is there? That literally sounds like the whole story
Ryder Martin
not him but I've seen it and it is very good, technically perfect as almost all oscar baits but the narrative style and the emotional aspect are above all other oscar bait, it's a very unique movie. Better than the likes of Spotlight and The Revenant for sure
you haven't seen the film right? there is not a lead actor.
Connor Allen
No, I haven't seen it. Reading the wiki, I think I will. It actually does sound pretty good.
Liam Thomas
In case you crackers didn't know, they have cracked down full force on screeners being leaked this year, so don't be surprised if you have to go to theaters to see them.
Jayden King
>Better than the likes of Spotlight and The Revenant for sure
Which is why Moonlight has zero chance of winning Best Picture.
Wyatt Watson
I wouldn't say that.
I mean I agree with the point you are making but I think that Moonlight has a shot. It seems like La La Land is the likely winner but Moonlight is absolutely second in line if LLL doesn't win.
Dominic Ward
Here - this film here will satisfy the space geeks, gays and SJW here: Gayniggers From Outerspace. Yes, it's a real film:
95%+ chance that La La Land will win. Keep in mind that 'the Academy' has a lot of 93 year old white dudes who haven't worked on a movie since Cleopatra. They like big flamboyant productions. They're not cinephiles.
Jack Russell
Wow critics are fucking plebs.
Isaiah Bell
>Manchester By The Sea beating La La Land Based.
Adam White
After the outrage of last year, it'll give Moonlight a boost.
Seven Years and Crash have won Oscars, you know.
Nolan Jackson
That's unironically the worst list I've ever seen.
Moonlight is a fucking meme flick, Boyhood+Fruitvale Station + gay spin = DUDE SO AMAZING. KINO BLACK DICK IN MY ASS
Austin Gomez
I definitely agree that LLL is the favourite and it'll be difficult to beat.
The fact that it wasn't even nommed for the SAG ensemble award is a little questionable though. I am guessing it is because LLL's narrative is so contained in just a couple of characters so it won't really matter but still, the last movie to win best pic without a SAG nom was Braveheart.
Connor Miller
Seven Years?
Crash was egregious lab-created oscar bait, of course it won.
Camden Cox
Have you even seen the movie?
Moonlight is good. I wouldn't put it at #1 for the year but it's deserving of being in the top 10, that's for sure. Also Manchester, Paterson, and OJ, all deserve to be in the top 10. Handmaiden, Hell or High Water, Jackie, LLL, and Arrival have no business being there though, that's true.
Kayden Edwards
Damn, I wish more of these were playing around me. I loved Moonlight and definitely would put it in the top 3.
What were the top 5 movies for Sup Forums? I need something to download tonight

Can't wait for the Boomers to die off 2bh
Aaron Parker
I seriously do not know how people can say there is no liberal agenda when the movie of the year is always some homosexual minority story.
Tangerine last year and now this.
Joseph Reed
I would put Viola Davis instead of Naomi Harrist tbqh
Julian Morris
Are you some sort of rightwing nutjob? Fuck off.
Eli Flores
You didn't refute his point.
Remember "Spotlight" who won Best Picture, that no one has ever seen. I never heard about it before or after. It won because it blackwashed christianity.
Whatever happened to #NotAllChristians
Raping boys is a fucking culture in muslim countries. Look up Bacha bazi/Dancing boys.
Oscars are fiercly political, last show was nothing but preachy bullshit and propaganda from start to finish - it was truly disgusting.
Adrian Campbell
Back to your containment board, dumbfuck.
Aiden Price
>no BvS dropped
Isaac Lewis
I am the guy you responded to earlier, I'll give you my list if you're even still around.
1. Manchester by the Sea 2. O.J.: Made in America 3. Kate Plays Christine 4. The Other Side 5. Everybody Wants Some!!!
There are still a bunch of things I want to see though. Stuff like Cameraperson, Happy Hour, No Home Movie, Cemetery of Splendor, Kaili Blues, Aquarius, etc.
Every one on my list (except Manchester) is available online
Hunter Turner
Davis is going supporting? The fuck. Sounds like major category fraud.
Brayden Nelson
>They're not cinephiles. This is true
Benjamin Parker
>Crash was egregious lab-created oscar bait, of course it won.
Lincoln Russell
Moonlight is going to win out. Hollywood has to show it isn't racist after all the #OscarsSoWhite stuff, and next to old Hollywood/media wank anything about gay people is what they eat up more than anything in those award shows.
Wyatt Collins
>Hollywood has to show it isn't
Hollywood doesn't have to show jack shit. Most of those old fucks still use the N-word on a daily basis.
Adam Sanchez
Could you enlighten me please? What's the last movie about a gay relationship that won Best Picture?
thanks
Evan Thomas
The US bias is to strong in a list like this imo, I prefer Sights and Sounds poll.
Ian Reed
Nice to see critics valorizing Huppert even if the Academy likely won't
Austin Ross
The Sight and Sound poll is definitely one of the best lists out there right now. Same goes for Slant's list.
Luke Cook
No, they are still racist. This is just about appearing not racist to the public.
Jace Cook
yeah, S&S, Cahiers du Cinéma, Slant, and Film Comment lists are the best ones.
Nolan Bailey
It's a secret ballot.
Mason Murphy
I agree with Film Comment but I generally really don't like the Cahiers lists. They always include a couple of good American movies, an American curveball (eg. Neon Demon), a couple of great movies from various countries, then a few mediocre French things that have no place on the list/will be forgotten about by everyone if they had even any presence to begin with.
Ian Peterson
No, the gay movies they tend to give those the best actor or actress award and just nominate it for best picture. The movies that romanize Hollywood or deal with the media they tend to give the best picture to.
This has the added racism element and after everyone complained that the Oscars were too white there is little chance Moonliht doesn't win big.
Isaiah Cox
He's right though.
Nathan Smith
>technically perfect
not even close. leave the critiquing to the professional, amateur.
Jace Green
Nice list! I haven't seen any of those but was really excited to see Manchester by the Sea this weekend. I'll check the others out, thank you!
