Dune, but imagine nominating Don't Look Up as the best picture, fucking christ. Pig should have totally been nominated, and I know this is a best picture thread, but Green Knight got snubbed real hard for Costume Design, Cinematography, and Production Design.

Did that remake of West Side Story really come off as a "best picture" kind of film?

I didn't see it because it didn't look like there was any reason to see it over the original.

I've only seen three, and of those, King Richard would probably be the best. I'd be surprised if it won, though.

It's Spielberg's pet project which is a remake of a Best picture winner, it not getting a bunch of nominations would be more surprising.

Only seen Dune and Don't Look Up so far.

Loved Dune, and would love if it won, though pretty unlikely.

I enjoyed Don't Look Up but Best Picture? Really?

I am skeptical but I've literally heard people say it's better than the original. It's apparently quite good.

if they're gonna include that, i don't see how NWH doesn't qualify.

I've only seen Dune and Don't Look Up so far. Don't Look Up was not very good and doesn't deserve the nomination. Dune was also kinda underwhelming. Pig and The Green Knight were both much better movies.

I'll probably try to see the rest of the Best Picture nominees. Drive My Car, Licorice Pizza, and Nightmare Alley were already on my to-watch list. The other categories have some potentially neat stuff jumbled in there as well, like The Tragedy of Macbeth and Flee. I didn't even know about these movies until today. I've been so out of the loop.

I heard Don't Look Up was really good.

A lot of people really liked Dune, but it bored me so much I turned it off before it ended.

The Oscars snubs their nose at "mainstream" movies unless its something really special. A Marvel movie would need to be one of the greatest movies of all time to get over that.

I wanted to love The Green Knight, but it was sooooo slooooow. I loved Dune, and I did like Don't Look Up, but personally would not have given it a nom. There is a subset of the academy that loves Adam McKay (see the Big Short and Vice as examples)

Oh and Nicolas Cage was great in Pig, but I wouldn't nominate the movie as a whole.
