So Robert Downey Jr won for just like a lifetime achievement thing right? Because if you cut him out of Oppenheimer nothing changes
He didn't even have a career for like 2 decades so no, not a lifetime achievement.

You're critique is of the writing. Not of the performance.

It was. Just like a Fincher movie was like a 30s movie. What's your point?

mank is nothing like a 30s movie. the point is you dont have any frame of reference for anything and know nothing about the artform, so you need to refrain from posting in my threads and assaulting my brain with your thoughts

I like him, too, but I'm not sure whether or not I'd call his performance in Oppenheimer that great.

He has always his stoic expression... and that's about it.

It was damn close for me. But the flawed screenplay means that I often couldn't tell what Lily Gladstone's character was actually feeling and thinking. Her performance was immaculate but it was muddled

Emma Stone had to run a gamut of emotions and character progression and nailed it throughout.

No, they won't. It has already dropped a little in estimation vs October. The flaws are becoming more obvious

I found Killers to be a little too long in the tooth. It was great, but not to the point of being easily better than the rest of the nominees.

the "flaws" are largely irrelevant ones from plotcels and people who think calling a movie too long is a legitimate criticism

from a filmmaking perspective is was easily the best movie this year

Filmaking was perfect. That is true, but you can't claim plot doesn't matter with a movie that appears to be plot focused

I did not comment on length

Scorcese is a god IMO, but this is barely in his better half IMO
