Well, I thought Oscars keeps on getting worse and worse.
Here were the nominees for Best Pictures for 2020:
1. Parasite (Won Best Picture, Best Director, Best International Film)
2. The Irishman
3. Ford v Ferrari
4. Once Upon a Time in Hollywod
5. Joker
6. 1917
7. A Marriage Story
8. Jojo Rabbit
9. Little Women
I've seen everything, except for Jojo Rabbit and Little Women.
Impressions:
1. Parasite - I saw this Korean movie about 3 months before Oscars. I thought it was so stupid.
My wife watches a lot more international and Korean movies and TV series than I do. But she also thought "Parasite" was a stupid movie.
I cannot believe it won Best Picture, Best Director, and Best International Film.
2. The Irishman - boring as hell
3. Ford v Ferrari - I liked it. One of the better movies. Probably 2nd best.
4. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - boring as hell, except for the ending where Brat Pitt does his thing.
5. Joker - I thought this was the best movie of the list. Should have won.
6. 1917 - copycat of Dances with Wolves/ Saving Private Ryan/Hacksaw Ridge - I thought it was pretty stupid.
7. A Marriage Story - boring as hell
Will eventually watch Jojo Rabbit and Little Women. But the odds aren't looking good.
