Just watched Laddy Gaga sing, Good lord but she is insanely talented.

Yes; she also wrote the song. But I was happy that the song that ultimately DID win won.

Pleasingly oddball winner in Everything Everywhere All At Once. I watched it a few months ago after Rebecca Solnit gushed about it when it came out. I enjoyed it but not at a multi-oscar winner level of appreciation. I will probably watch it again if it’s on telly some time.

Loved EEAAO. I think it deserved its awards. However, I need to see a few more of the noms. I really also liked Banshees, viewed yesterday.

At least Top Gun, Elvis, or Triangle Of Sadness didn’t win. Saw all of them and sorry but not even close.
Fablemans and Banshees worthy nominees, Tar? Pretty close but nope.
Have not seen the winner. Thanks for your insight James and John, We’ll watch it.

I want to see the Whale and Everything…. Banshees also but I’ll wait until it’s on the Telly.

I usually like catching up with the best documentary nominations. I know nothing about them yet but will be checking them out. <Lady> Gaga .

I liked Elvis, hated Banshees, although the acting, scenery, & music were superb. It was the story I hated. Those were the only two we saw but we will catch the others at some point. There was a time when I would have seen all the nominated movies before the Oscars. Those days are gone. Lady Gaga amazes me and did again last night. Nobody got sucker punched last night, which was, I guess, good.

Saw Banshees. Really liked it. Wanted whats-his-name to win best supporting actor. I really want to see Tar. I just love Cate Blanchett.

I rarely watch movies but finally went to see the Jesus Revolution phenomenon.
Not a great movie as it is, but I was very much connected to that movement and in particular Lonnie Frisbee. So it touched some places in me.

Was that on again? We never watched them before and haven't changed. My opinion was "who wants to watch a bunch of millionaires all pat each other on the back". Not me.

Sometimes I envy you city boys and your fancy multiplex theaters.

I haven’t been to an actual theater to see a movie in more years than I can remember. I honestly don’t know what movie it would have been that we saw. It’s been a long, long, time.

Top Gun needs to be seen (scene?) on a big screen. Hokey movie. Banal predictable plot. So-so acting. FABULOUS jet fighter filmage.

Couldn’t agree more Marshall. Junior high level cliche ridden dialogue and story line. Military hardware fix? Off the charts.

The "death by sex toy" body count was much higher in EEAAO than in Top Gun.

EEAAO was amazing in how bizarre it got, while holding together. It was a fun, wild ride, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Top Gun was a good action thriller, though not as good as the original, I don’t think. The rest I haven’t seen.
