Embach

his best song!

every time i see this thread i start yawning lol. not a single bit of this has been exciting. to be honest for me an era actually starts when the single drops (maybe cotcc for me started with question for the culture). so this era has yet to begin. brightsun has dropped information stuff about other artists that later became true. i remember as a lurker when they revealed lykke li's new single name and release date in 2022.

It's over

Because Of You vs Breaking My Heart

why europe october/november with a question mark though *crying face emoji* the european tour better be europing, not two dates in france and england

arcadia music video description leaking ocean blvd release date flashbacks lmaooo

The Right Person might be coming after all!

16 out of 19, I got right. Maybe I should start betting on money, just kidding lol. 2 half-right (Best Actress/Best Animated Feature Film) and 1 wrong (Best Editing). This was lowkey really predictable to be honest. It definitely doesn't mean it's bad, I think every category had its own favorites from time to time until all the movies were released. So happy for Brazil and I'm Still Here, Latvia and Flow. I really wish The Substance and Conclave had won more awards (although I'm so glad that Demi Moore won a lot of awards this season!) but they really deserved those awards which they won. Happy for Wicked for Best Production Design and Best Costume Design, the set was majestic and grandiose! Dune Part 2 totally deserved those two techinal awards as well, it was a huge and spectacular movie in terms of visuals and craft, it's probably one of the best sci-fi movies of the 2020s! Happy for the acting winners as well!

Yeah, it was the same case with Matthew Perry last year.

So happy that Flow won Best Animation. I really thought that The Wild Robot will win because of the hype and it won many awards earlier like Critics Choice and Producers Guild Awards (although Flow did win a Golden Globe Award before). A Latvian indie movie winning against Disney Pixar and DreamsWorks is HUGE!!! Alsooooooo, who were your favorites in terms of looks and outfits? I loooooved Emma Stone, she looked like from The Great Gatsby movie

I loved the 2024 show more than 2025 tbh.

Mikey is the first Gen Z actress to win an Oscar, so proud of her!

Let The Light In vs Candy Necklace

To be honest the only actor who has served different cool outfits this awards season is Colman Domingo. Really interested to see his look for today. Jeremy Strong has had cool choices as well, like that green suit from Golden Globes.

This is literally my Super Bowl! And I love how stacked the Best Actress category has been with amazing performances every year in the 2020s, the most exciting and competitive one, like this category has many favorites to win. This year it's Demi vs Mikey vs Fernanda, last year had Emma Stone vs Lily Gladstone, 2023 had Michelle Yeoh vs Cate Blanchett. No matter who will win, they've won in our hearts!

MY PREDICTIONS (based on odds, other victories, media hype and gut feeling): Best Picture: Anora What could also win: Conclave (although Anora won the main prize at Producers Guild Award and it's a clear indicator of Best Picture winner, it also won Critics' Choice and Palme D'or. Conclave has only won BAFTA - it could mean nothing but it shows that it's a second favorite to win. The Brutalist is probably the third favorite.) Best Director: Sean Baker for Anora (he won at Directors Guild Award which is a great indicator for Best Director victory) Who could also win: Brady Corbet for The Brutalist (Corbet won a Golden Globe and a BAFTA) Best Actor: Adrien Brody for The Brutalist Who could also win: Timothée Chalamet - he won the SAG Award + great campaign Best Actress: Fernanda Torres for I'm Still Here Who could also win: Demi Moore or Mikey Madison - they have won important awards earlier (Demi Moore - Golden Globe/Critics' Choice/SAG Award, Mikey Madison - BAFTA + many state film critics society awards, her movie also has a great chance at winning Best Picture) but the votes might have gone split between them, which gives Fernanda Torres a chance + the movie was nominated for Best Picture which people didn't expect - a dark horse nominee) Best Supporting Actor: Kieran Culkin for A Real Pain Best Supporting Actress: Zoe Saldaña for Emilia Perez (This is Ariana Grande's last chance to win, she has a better chance than the other 3 nominees) Best Original Screenplay: Anora Best Adapted Screenplay: Conclave Best Cinematography: The Brutalist Best Editing: Conclave Best Production Design: Wicked Best Costume Design: Wicked Best Make-Up & Hair: The Substance Best Original Score: The Brutalist Best Original Song: El Mal from Emilia Perez Best Sound: Dune Part Two Best Visual Effects: Dune Part Two Best Animated Feature Film: The Wild Robot What could also win: Flow (Won aGolden Globe) Best International Feature Film: I'm Still Here (Brazil) What could also (sadly) win: Emilia Perez but after the Twitter scandal, it's hard for me to see the movie win, also the hype-build for I'm Still Here has been huge. @Cult Leader I predict that Sebastian Stan will look amazing! Looking at my previous predictions, how many I got right: Golden Globes Awards: 8/15 Critics' Choice Awards: 11/19 BAFTA: 12/21 SAG Awards: 6/15 I can't wait to see the results! Me to the nominees:

Happy 9th Anniversary to Poetry In Motion! Remember where were you when that song was made...such a beautiful song!

Her hairstylist Anna Cofone posted a story of LA and driving past Chateau Marmont. My delulu sirens started beeping in my head thinking it's for Lana or Lana hint but I realised that it's probably for Margaret because of the Oscars

Great news! Congratulations!

Honestly, I agree about the voting, they all have other obligations, so yeah, they can't focus on all the movies at the same time. And all the film knowledge and opinions are different as well. I don't really have a concrete wish this season since I haven't seen half of the movies (most of them were released last month) but so far The Substance impressed me, so I'm happy with any kind of award for this movie!

That one twitter pop insider said in an exclusive subscribe letter shit or something that she will announce US and Europe stadium tour dates in February. Well...did she? We shouldn't pay attention to those Twitter attention seeker insiders tbh. They really love to say that "fork found in the kitchen" type shit about the album which will happen either way. Like girl, I predict that tomorrow the sky is cloudy in some parts of the world, let's see if I'm right tomorrow lol.

Imagine if there's a triple victory tie where Demi, Mikey and Fernanda won Best Actress, it would be chaotic but it would be something I'd love to see So far as I can remember of what I have read is that you can become a voter if you have at least two friends who are members of the Academy. It makes sense that Oscar nominated people can be the members as well. I think there are a variety of age groups, from 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s ect ect. I just thought that if these people vote for Best Picture, it would be respectful and fair to watch all of these movies (like imagine if 25% of those voters watched only mid films like Emilia Perez and didn't bother to watch other movies which are actually good). Those results would be messy and not objective. They can dislike the movies of course, it's alright not to vibe with them but if you're voting in important categories like Best Picture, it should be a necessity to watch them all of them (they get special screenings for that as well) and if they can't bother watching them then drop out of the voting for this one year (which would be alright, I'm sure that all the members have the right not to vote, if they don't want to or can't) but you know...it's just hard to expect that from 10,000 voters.

I have been reading those anonymous Oscar voters choices and they're actually very incompetent at their job. It's as rigged as that one Grammy voter who didn't vote for Lana because of the SNL performance. I mean only like ~10 anonymous voters have revealed their decisions out of like 10 thousand voters but STILL, it might indicate that there are more voters like these people. For example: Two Oscar voters didn't vote for Ralph Fiennes in Conclave for Best Actor because he already has an Oscar and it would be unfair, so they gave their votes to Adrien Brody in The Brutalist instead. But the fact is that Fiennes has actually never won one and Brody has one already. (Like do your fucking reasearch or what's even wrong with having an award already lol) One voter didn't vote for Cynthia Erivo in Wicked because they thought she's too old for that role. There are many voters who haven't seen the movies nominated there. One voter said that they couldn't get through the first Dune, so they didn't bother to watch 3 hours of Dune Part 2 (which is a Best Picture nominee + 4 other categories). Some voters also complained about the runtime of The Brutalist (3.5 hours long) (the film is nominated for 10 Oscars), so they didn't get to it or didn't finish it. My question is, who the fuck gets chosen there as a voters. It's a huge privilege to be there, so at least do your job like you've earned it. There are thousands of cinephiles around the world who would agree to do that for free. It's like the Grammys where the voters are biased without any critical thinking and ability to research. These are not People's Choice Awards or MTV Movie Awards, these are fucking Oscars. Filmmakers, actors and the team have poured their souls out for their films and the voters are really disrespectful by not bothering to watch those films. That's the reason why people do not take these awards seriously these days.
