It’s always prevalent.
I love his review of Get Out, especially this bit: “A true masterpiece and a film debut from a director that deserved the once in a lifetime raves Greta Gerwig is getting for being a woman”

Boo. post more tho, m8 and i <3 ur sig too I don't even know who most people are anymore haha. I had a hard enough time recognising people changing usernames on IMDB. Doesn't help that last year and this year haven't been great film wise for me. Been rather boring aside from a few saving graces. But I will try to post more  and thank you! |

I have to agree, post more. I don't really get the problems people had with the trolls either, I thought they were fun/suitably psychotic. I dunno maybe that's just me..............Like even now I can remember a poetry thread one time semisweet and I posted some stuff by the great Simon Armitage and you liked it - like that's how clearly I remember cool little connections from the IMDB days. Nowadays I just assume we're all here just marking time until The Irishman comes out and I post here just because well raygittes07 asked me too and to keep my curmudgeonly reputation alive |

Nowadays I just assume we're all here just marking time until The Irishman comes out and I post here just because well raygittes07 asked me too and to keep my curmudgeonly reputation alive I will definitely try to post more. It's just like moving house, I've been trying to get used to this new place and have been finding it hard so I end up just posting in spurts. I agree with you about the trolls. One or two would be insufferable but the rest could be quite fun. Davemike, man! There are great memories there. Such fun times. The fake merc's scandal was glorious, I remember sockpuppet messaging me to confirm that I was indeed mercformargoatrobbie and agreeing to keep it a secret. I totally get you about little seemingly irrelevant memories from the board that stuck with you. We need to make this place more homely. Spending more time here will help me to work out who is who from the old board and i hope I can feel as comfortable here in the long run as I did on IMDB. |

Awe. Merc gave Call Me By Your Name a one star rating and no review. I'm sad. Wait. Does that mean it's now winning Best Picture now?  He definitely cursed Natalie Portman last year. He ended up liking Jackie, gave it an A-, and called it a winning performance. I don't know how else you can explain losing for that. |

He definitely cursed Natalie Portman last year. He ended up liking Jackie, gave it an A-, and called it a winning performance. I don't know how else you can explain losing for that. My God, Merc and Jackie last year was fucking amazing. He had his knife out for Portman all year, calling her a fake bitch because she compared her Oscar to a false idol in that one interview that one time (it didn't matter that people tried to explain to him what she meant, he stood by it). He was adamant that she was going nowhere, and pushed Stone really aggressively even if he hated her singing in the La La Land trailers and regularly shit on her work in Birdman, saying she did absolutely nothing and that any hot girl can get a Supporting nom if they show up in the right film. Early December, he was adamant Portman was getting shut out because everyone would want to punish her for being so fake. Then she won the BFCA and he flipped sides in the space of one minute. He changed his tune to "well there's no way they were ever gonna pass on that much Oscar begging, Stone ain't winning for playing herself and she can't sing either". Then came the Globes. And SAG. Merc also cursed former future Best Picture winner with 10+ nominations Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, and he 100% guaranteed Moonlight's wins. He hated that film (and Mahershala Ali in particular) so much, I have no idea how the BP upset came as a surprise to any of us. |

Anybody else remember those constant fights about their favorite actors Merc and those other two would have every day? After a while I figured they were all gay because no way someone could care that much about a movie star without wanted to fuck them.

So the movie as a whole rises, but Chalamet takes a blow. The script is pretty much guaranteed to win an Oscar now, though.
