BStowers023 Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 Complete joke that I see Phantom Thread on there as much as I do. That movie was absolute trash. Also, James Franco not even nominated for best actor? WTF...

CRed05 Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 I'm sure Franco is getting screwed because of the accusations, which is bullshit. I have not seen all the movies in the list, but maybe those other actors were just better than him? Opinions of those who've seen all those movies?

B3NN3TT Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 I haven't seen Phantom Thread yet, but Paul Thomas Anderson is my spirit animal. And I think Franco is outrageously overrated these days. 13 noms for Shape of Water makes me happy, though. Must have been a lean year for animated features...

BStowers023 Posted January 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 I think Paul Thomas Anderson is great and obviously so is Daniel Day Lewis. There Will Be Blood is probably my favorite movie of all time. With that said, Phantom Thread was absolutely horrible. One of, if not the worst movie I've ever watched in theaters. I've never left a movie more disappointed. That movie being nominated for 6 Oscars is people just drinking the kool-aid. James Franco not being nominated is a whole other story. It seems clear it's because of the sexual assault "allegations." Complete joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o0n8 Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 Daniel Day Lewis was amazing as always in Phantom Thread, the movie it's self wasn't that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geeto67 Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 the timeline is kind of tight for the allegations and the oscar voting. I think the disaster artist not being nominated has more to do with movie snobbery and refusal to acknowledge the merit of a bad movie (the Room) than because Franco is a handsy douche. I mean, they keep giving roman polanski awards and he's actually still wanted for statutory rape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verse Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 I don't think I've even heard of a single movie on that list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zx2guy19 Posted January 23, 2018 Report Share Posted January 23, 2018 I don't think I've even heard of a single movie on that list. I was thinking the same thing, haven't heard of a single one except Get Out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
