The past ten best picture winners:
2026: One Battle After Another (Paul Thomas Anderson) 2025: Anora (Sean Baker) 2024: Oppenheimer (Christopher Nolan) 2023: Everything Everywhere All at Once (Daniel Kwan & Daniel Scheinert) 2022: CODA (Siân Heder) 2021: Nomadland (Chloé Zhao) 2020: Parasite (Bong Joon-ho) 2019: Green Book (Peter Farrelly) 2018: The Shape of Water (Guillermo del Toro) 2017: Moonlight (Barry Jenkins)
Of all of those I’ve seen the shape of water and found it to be a very mediocre fish sex movie. The rest I don’t even care to see, Nolan lost me as a viewer with inception and the rest are leftist circle jerks.
Comparatively here’s 1990-1999
Dances with Wolves (1990) The Silence of the Lambs (1991) Unforgiven (1992) Schindler's List (1993) Forrest Gump (1994) Braveheart (1995) The English Patient (1996) Titanic (1997) Shakespeare in Love (1998) American Beauty (1999)
Absolutely insane how badly the quality tanked.
The only one I've even heard of is Parasite, haven't seen any of them.
I liked Inception. Tenet did nothing for me. Oppenheimer is good though. It does kinda skirt around the issue of Oppy's involvement with the commies.
Inception was pretentious, but well acted well shot and entertaining. It was lazy Reddit “intellectual” bait and ruined the rest for me.
I do hate that movie’s ambiguous ending. I don’t appreciate being led on for 3 hours not to have a real conclusion. And of course the pseudo intellectual redditor types love it.
Tenet is one of my favorite movies and I’ll die on that hill. Definitely not for general audiences though.
You can keep your hill, sans death. I'll let you have my plot of land on that hill, so you'll be more comfortable
Agreed. I also saw shape of water and didn’t get there hype. Only thing I liked was the song you’ll never know
What’s a fish sex movie that you recommend?
There's a coming-of-age one about a guy on a swim team turning into a merman. 20-ish years ago? I thought it was passable.
Based. That movie was all flash no substance, which is most of his movies tbh
I just realized that most of his movies were heavily dependant on good actors
