Can't believe goofy fluff movie Barbie got any nominations
Looking back at this win now 2 weeks Greta should have won something 🙄🙄🙄🙄😒😒😒
It's a good thing he can write because he damn sure can't speak. 😂 wtf is he talking about 🤣
This guy is basically complaining…..
Brilliant writing! Very witty and real. Well deserved! Congrats! 🎉👍🏾👍🏾
This should have one best picture too. This was simply one of the best and most memorable films I've seen in my life (50)
Godzilla Minus One proves his point. Academy Award winning effects and a global sensation on a ~$15 million dollar budget.
Best acceptance speech
My nominees:
– American Fiction
– Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret
– Killers of the Flower Moon
– Oppenheimer
– Poor Things
Winner: Oppenheimer
The movie neither vilified nor victimized. And the ending was spectacular! Congrats man ✊🏾
I really like how they brought back the motion graphics from the 2010's Oscars, where the text from the screenplay is written out. Although, it would have been better if it displayed things like the sluglines and stage directions, not just dialogue.

Cord Jefferson is now halfway to EGOT Status. He only needs a Grammy & Tony to complete the feat.
I really appreciated Cord’s speech
I watched the film and thought “This is brilliant. Someone better win SOMETHING!” And for him to win for the screenplay. ✨👌🏾 And this speech is 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
He is right. Studios need to be more willing to back original projects and they also need to produce, market and distribute at least 100 seven figure movies instead of 50 nine figure movies.
When Cord said, "I only got six seconds!", he wasn't making that number up…I ran his speech with a stopwatch and he said that at 39 sec. with in view of the 45 second rule for Oscars speeches. At first I thought he was simply pulling it out of a hat, and then I learned about the time limit. What a class act.
Richly deserved.
Great speech, and I think people agree. The amount of money spent on some truly awful big budget garbage, it's just like there's no way some of these pieces of shit like Argylle could be that bad AND cost that much money.
Thank goodness he won! That movie is brilliant and ought to have won best picture
