Looks pretentious af. I won't be watching this. Oxford Languages' definition of pretentious: "attempting to impress by affecting greater importance or merit than is actually possessed". Killers of the Flower Moon plot description: "a Western that centres on a series of Oklahoma murders in the Osage Nation during the 1920s, committed after oil was discovered on tribal land". If this looks pretentious to you, you may as well just stop watching movies. My mistake. My comments about pretension was in regards to the trailer and how it presents the subject, not on the plot itself. I should’ve quoted the comment with the trailer so that my intentions weren’t misunderstood. My original comment was made before I even knew what the plot was, hence me finding the vague, artsy-fartsy trailer to be pretentious. Thank you for allowing me to clear that up.

I hope Plemons's hat gets bigger and bigger from scene to scene, like Camryn Manheim's in that Scary Movie spoof of Signs.

LOTS of praise for the main trio. Plemons seems like a non-factor unfortunately.

* Let's assume it's a masterpiece now - that would be 3 in a row not counting the David Johansen TV doc - The Irishman, the Dylan Rolling Thunder Revue and now this .....who does that at Scorsese's age? * If DiCap wins - that's 2 BA Oscar at under 50 - I've said this before - he could catch DDL w / 3 BA wins. If De Niro wins, certainly the most deserving actor who only has 2 and who deserves 3 and unlike Blanchett he's at the age where it "makes sense" * If Gladstone wins .......that's particularly amazing since The Irishman had essentially "no females" (whatever) and be the 2nd Best Actress win he's directed. Lots of historical weight to this....... and every review is saying exactly what I want to hear

GIVE JACK FISK HIS GODDAMN OSCAR NOW. I think it's more than likely. Dune probably ain't winning again, Nolan flicks are always content with being nominated, Barbie/Poor Things may be too stylized. If I were to bet on anything this stupidly early, I'd go with Flower Moon with its scale and detail (I mean, I haven't seen it but Fisk will definitely bring those).

For the nomination...probably. Hale though I think might fall into the "too despicable to win" category.

If De Niro's competition is weak he's got a great chance with those notices.

De Niro has very strong notices and I would say Best Supporting Actor is the category that tends to recognize "despicable" characters more than any other... but I do think he's far from a lock at this stage.

Neglia and that Oscar Expert dweeb say Gladstone is definitely supporting.

I've seen already more than one critic calling it DiCaprio's best performance of his entire career.
Only Bilge Ebiri thinks he's a bit miscast.

This feels like the current front runner in at least Director, Supporting Actress and Adapted Screenplay. Maybe one of the other actors.
I have no idea about Picture at this time.

William Hale: “. . . and that is how the 3-for-1 special on Tostitos Scoops is, in fact, profitable for Frito Lay.”

Seeing a few people describe De Niro as co-lead. What do we think about that?

Love these Cannes applause videos. All the love in the room! I love videos where Marty is being applauded and he has that look for a few seconds where he's trying to be all cool and dignified, and then he can't hold it back anymore and that joyous smile breaks.
