Why? It's not McDormand's problem if she was the best the years she won (and that's from someone who would have probably voted for Watson in 1996).OscarGuy wrote:Spared Viola Davis, but three Oscars for Frances McDormand is rather sad.

Re: 93rd Oscars: Best Actor
I guess it wasn't a coincidence after all that all these anonymous voters were acknowledging Boseman but at the end of the day were voting for Hopkins. In a related note, Marvel's decision not to recast Black Panther looks even worse now. Chadwick was a great actor but not a god. No actor is bigger ...

Re: Categories One-by-One: Visual Effects
Black Panther had plenty of artistic value. It was one of the few MCU films that was more than just a comic cash grab. I disagree. The plot was nonsensical and it had perhaps the worst visual effects in the entire MCU. I respect its cultural importance but personally I found it no better or worse t...

Re: Categories One-by-One: Visual Effects
Enough people were sick of Disney's cash-in live action remakes that The Lion King fell to 1917 last year I was fine with their voting for Not The Lion King. But why couldn’t it have been Avengers: Endgame? Thanos might be the best CG villain ever, and isn’t one Oscar a proper thank-you for the bil...

Re: The Biden-Harris Era
South Carolina's black voters saved America (and the world) from a second Trump term. It's as simple as that.

Re: New Developments III
If someone like Shelby who is 86, retiring, and opposed vociferously Roy Moore's nomination, didn't vote to convict Trump then I don't see how any number of witnesses would have changed the minds of 10 more Republican senators. On another note, I will be laughing my ass off when lil' Marco Rubio's o...

I thought the Midnight Sky was panned by critics. Who exactly voted for it to be among the ten best of the year?

Re: Campaign 2020
A black, a Jew, and a Latino get into the senate and are sworn-in by a Black/Indian woman.
Thankfully not a joke.

Re: New Developments III
I don't get why Puerto Rico hasn't asked to be admitted yet. It just held a high turnout referendum where for the first time a clear majority of voters selected statehood over the status quo. This should be a priority for Democrats in congress, especially since unlike DC there is nothing controversi...

Re: New Developments III
The Twittter discussion is on MSNBC now. Chatter was heard between insurrectionists in the capitol. They were looking for Pence to either take him hostage or kill him there for being a traitor to Trump similar to what had been planned for the governor of Michigan. Impeachment is on the fast track. ...

Trump just joined Parler. This could go... a lot of different ways but one thing is certain: we now officially have an alternate reality social media platform. Nope.

Re: New Developments III
Taking over the senate was important not because Democrats can now pass sweeping legislation (they'd need at least 52-53 for that) but because now Biden can get his cabinet and judges confirmed. If McConnell remained majority leader it was almost guaranteed that he'd have blocked, or at least slow-w...
