From yesterday’s (10.1) Oscar prediction riff — “Twelve 2025 Films with Exceptional Craft, Serious Content, Emotional Heft”:
I might dismissively, grudgingly accept Sinners winning the compensation prize of a Best Original Screenplay Oscar, despite the fact that such a win would be ridiculous, of course.
Weapons over Sinners, Weapons over Sinners, Weapons over Sinners.
Noms but no wins for the absurdly overpraised, identity-propelled & deeply schlocky Sinners — noms but no wins for the absurdly overpraised, identity-propelled & deeply schlocky Sinners — noms but no wins for the absurdly overpraised, identity-propelled & deeply schlocky Sinners.
I am ready and willing to die on this hill. I would feel radiantly blessed and fulfilled if a lightning bolt would strike me down on a hilly golf course for this. Kill me, kill me, kill me. For I am the lamb.
Let every voter and every nation know that Hollywood Elsewhere is THE default worldwide takedown site for Sinners. For this effing movie is blood-soaked, fang-toothed, ground-up mulch…a ludicrously bloody Samuel Z. Arkoff vampire cunnilingus programmer…Oscar diminishment to it, Oscar diminishment to it, Oscar diminishment to it.
