as far as category placements go... Lily Gladstone. We need to talk about it, because I have her in supporting and I've made my case for that, but I'll gladly move her if the consensus feels differently.

only 5 slots for screenplays? I just copied and pasted from the last AMARAs, let me check. That doesn't seem right. Either way, I think we're going with seven, screw consistency Edit: Everyone please vote in the above poll - I haven't counted any ballots yet, so if there's a clear majority I'll notify early voters |

All categories should be seven nominees except Picture, which should have a round dozen. Just my two cents.

I’ve pretty much got all my ballots set in stone. All I have to do is fill them out (depending on the Screenplay ruling). I’m with five, because I kind of don’t want to resort to including filler in those categories.

In honour of the way the Academy brought back my beloved introductions by prior Oscar winners this year, would we want to do something like that for this particular season? Maybe we can get one voter to write a brief introduction to an acting nominee. Especially if that voter is known for their passion for a particular film or performance.

Maybe we can get one voter to write a brief introduction to an acting nominee. Especially if that voter is known for their passion for a particular film or performance. I'm down for it, if people want to. The problem is that some writers may need to do 5-8 writeups, so that could be a bit difficult for some. But I'm going to make a counter-proposal. We get somebody who absolutely HATES the nominee and have them rip the performance apart. Positivity is so boring. |

I say 7 nominees even if the consensus is 5. If people can't come up with 7, they can just submit 5. It wouldn't make any sense to have 7 noms for past years where people have generally seen much fewer films and only 5 for the current year. I could easily come up with 10 each myself. There were lots of great scripts last year.

The Artifice Girl (Franklin Ritch) - A great stagey movie about people sitting in rooms and discussing ethics. The best film of the year. River (Junta Yamaguchi) - A charming time loop comedy told in real-time two minute "laps." That's pretty much it. A few other, lesser movies would be: Fallen Leaves (Aki Kaurismaki) - It's a nice little Kaurismaki movie, y'know? A Good Person (Zach Braff) - Peak normie bait. Super emotional and yanks at the heartstrings and I cried like a baby. Florence Pugh is Oscar worthy. Horror in the High Desert 2: Minerva (Dutch Maritch) - You don't need to have seen the first movie. The first movie is terrible anyway. This is a creepy found footage yarn that never answers anything, which makes it all creepier. Mami Wata (C.J. 'Fiery' Obasi) - Terrific cinematography and makeup anchor a solidly told - if very simple - folk fable The Promised Land (Nikolaj Arcel) - Terrific cinematography and Mads Mikkelsen anchor a powerful historic drama Skinamarink (Kyle Edward Ball) - It's a creepy Youtube video stretched out for 80 minutes... which makes it scarier than 90% of all other horror films |

FYC:
Kidnapped (Marco Bellocchio). It's ok, Scorsese is the goat at 80+ but Bellocchio, another octagenarian is also doing some of his best work right now. Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning. One of the most consistent franchises, this one's the bigger, better
La Chimera (Alice Rohrwacher). A movie that quite literally opens the doors to a new world
Monster (Hirokazu Koreeda). A reminder of why Koreeda's one of the very best
Supporting Actress is more than Da'Vine, Blunt and Ferrera: Scarlett Johansson, Asteroid City Julianne Moore, May December (when the time comes for category placement, this one would be interesting) Stella Gonet, El Conde Merve Dizdar, About Dry Grasses Penélope Cruz, Ferrari Amy Ryan, Beau is Afraid (althoug there's plenty to choose from here) Paula Beer, Afire
