I find Quentin Tarantino disgusting. His first two movies contained all the avant garde elements he had going for him. Since then, garbage.
So is The Irishman, just a rehashing of stuff Scorsese didn't put in Casino and Goodfellas. And that de-aging effect! AWFUL! Good cinematography though.
Marriage Story has good acting but the plot is tired and predictable, and there are a lot of places where the continuity falls out, but the movie just keeps going. Not award-worthy.
What everyone should be aware of is how all these award organizations are run by men, to such an extent that NOT ONE WOMAN was nominated for Best Director, even though Alma Har'el's Honey Boy has people coming to see it multiple times. Marielle Heller, brilliant director of last year's shouldabeen Best Picture, Can You Ever Forgive Me? didn't even get a stinking nod for Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, even with Tom Hanks in it! Greta Gerwig, who directed last year's Wonder Woman, did a remake of Little Women. I'm not so excited about that, considering the number of remakes already, but the buzz about it is huge.
And it's not because the movies directed by men were better, not by a long shot. Really, why are Scorsese & Tarantino even included? What haven't they already directed to earn their chops? Women aren't even considered, and you would be truly shocked to know what blockbuster films were directed by women over the last 20 years. But these guys can probably complain better than me:
www.indiewire.com
This is a hot-button issue for me because I am a huge film buff and many people have only seen some films after they heard about them from me. No brag, just fact, from the beginning of cinema until today.
But hey, we're just chatting here about how we spend our time, right? I need to mellow out. And I will, right after I tell you the only movie I've seen this year is Ford v Ferrari, in IMAX, which cost me a lot of money I can barely afford. But James Mangold, who did Girl Interrupted and 3:10 to Yuma, is one of the most intelligent directors working today and he did a great job cinematically. He did this as he does all his movies, with his wife as executive producer. Two people, one brain, fantastic results. I know you can't have everything, but as a kid growing up in the Sixties, driving around in muscle cars, who has an intimate understanding of the internal combustion engine, I am an aficionado of Carroll Shelby and he just wasn't portrayed accurately. They needed to make Ken Miles the spark plug of the story, so even though Matt Damon has the most and best lines, he is not portraying Shelby. And Christian Bale's dialog is limited, but he is absolutely brilliant as this maniacal racecar trendsetter. He is the only actor worth voting for in the three slates that have been announced. I hope he sweeps them all, and the Oscars.
And it would tickle me pink if FVF won best picture, just to show other directors and writers that a positive, family-oriented movie can win the big prize. We've needed that for a long time.
Oscars are announced in early January and then it's just a lot of waiting. But I hope they are hearing all the women and men who are not going to excuse AMPAS from snubbing women so we can be fed more violence, blood, gore, disgusting profanities, racism, sexism and superficial glamour like we're seeing in the other movies.
Your thoughts?

Women Directors Were Snubbed at the Globes, but Their Movies Still Have a Shot in the Oscar Race
Greta Gerwig's "Little Women" and Lulu Wang's "The Farewell" are gaining traction. But a Best Director nomination is tough to get.

Wow Diane I don’t know where to start on this one .I like Tarantino movies except the last two I thought sucked and I thought The Irishman was a big bore just awful. Unfortunately women aren’t putting out movies that guys want to see . I liked Wonder Woman ( one of my faves ) and Hurt Locker. But little Women I could care less. My favorite movies of the year are JoJo Rabbit ,Jumanji, and some others I can’t think of right now. Women make violent profanity movies too The Hurt Locker is one example. I like Comedy’s myself but also like a good action movie too. I’ve predicted the the best movie of the year almost every year.I got to movies at least 3 times a week too because I love movies .my mind is totally blank on movies right now though.Oh I did like the Dora the Explorer movie I thought that was fun.Midsommer., Zombieland double tap ,Bombshell and The Advengers end game,Harriet and Ready or Not was one of my favorites this year .As for best picture I don’t know yet.If you ever watch behind the scenes on DVDs there are a lot of women who work and write for some of the violent movies I’m watching Rambo Last Blood right now and there’s quite a few women involved in it production wise

I respect your I respect your opinions, but I disagree. Mary Harron did I shot Andy Warhol and American Psycho and those are two of my favorite movies and they were directed by a woman. I don't think the problem is that women don't make movies that men like. Because 50% of the movie attendance is women. I think the problem is that when the screeners are sent out to the academy members, the men just toss the movies that sound like they're not any good and or made by women in the garbage. They don't even watch them. Therefore they cannot be qualified to vote because they didn't review everything and compare it all.
I'm surprised at how many movies I like that men also like. One of my favorite movies is taxi driver. Also, platoon, Apocalypse Now, The Shining, I can't think of any others at the moment but something changed after 9/11. I could no longer watch movies that were pointlessly violent. It was like subjecting myself to PTSD all over again.
And I know I'm in the minority here but I don't think of men the same way that most of the people here think of men. And the men in my life do not behave in sexist, threatening, violent ways and they are just as happy as I am to sit down and watch a movie with a great complicated story, whether it's directed by a woman or a man.
To me, movies are about quality. They are about the quality of the acting the quality of the writing and the quality of the directing. If you came over to my house, I would bet you many dollars that you would go crazy looking at my DVD collection. And you would either have watched most of them already or you would want to watch them with me.
Lucky you going to movies 3 times a week! I don't think I could actually choose three movies to watch every week, but that's why I have a Netflix account a Prime video account a IMDb TV account and a huge collection of movies that I have either taped or purchased.
But even if you would just boil it down to the law of averages, there is no way that at least one woman wouldn't have been nominated as best director or her picture wouldn't have been nominated for Best Picture. And I can see a few movies I would just rip right out of there and get rid of to make room.

Well if you look at some of the movies directed by women this year Little ,Booksmart , Little women they were pretty bad .Frozen 2 on the other hand people loved whether it sucked or not. I like quality movies too Green Book and a Three billboard’s in Missouri,Harriet , yesterday to name a few. I also have a lot of movies around 2 thousand I think.All kinds Film noir ,cult movies and so on. I have no preference I just love movies but you can kinda tell if a movie is going to suck when they come out Charlie’s Angels ( directed by a woman ) bmbed at the box office.I kinda liked it.Everyone loves The Joker I thought it was boring.like I said I love movies I don’t care if it’s made by a man or woman . Cats ! What happened there I could tell from the trailer that would bomb.Now it’s all about Star Wars bad or good it’s going to make a lot of money anyway, I lost interest after the first three. My favorite movies of all time are Blazing Saddles , The Devils Rejects ,Road House , Any Beatles movie ,any Marx Bros movie , Die Hard, Batman ( the Michael Keaton one ) and The Back to the Future trilogy to name a few I like. Anyway it’s good to chat with someone who loves movies like I do .

I'm not a movie buff like you guys, don't pay attention to directors or awards so I can't chime in on any of that but I'm loving the discussions.
Diane, you mentioned Girl Interrupted, that's one of my top 10 for sure. Along with Pulp Fiction so I guess I'm all over the place when it comes to my taste. I also have some guilty pleasures that have no artistic value but that I love. Heathers and even Con Air are on that list. Yup, I said Con Air, hehe. Such a cheesy movie but it cracks me up every time I see it. And I just adore Steve Buscemi's role! I also love Bad Santa, got to see that again a few nights ago. I love, love, love Billy Bob as that character.

and a cast of thousands! This list doesn't even begin to reflect my movie tastes, accomplishments by female directors or credits for screenwriters, costume designers, cinematographers or cultural impact.
I also love good comedies, but they're hard to find. Add Mr. Mom. I think Penny Marshall directed it.
Note that this is a forum for hobbies and interests. I'm going to back out of here now to write my book, and to participate in bariatric surgery-related threads. But it's been fun! And please keep telling me yours.
Bill, I adore Christian Bale. I noticed you left his Dark Knight trilogy out in favor of Michael Keaton. But even among his movies, he's made some real stinkers. One overlooked film, the only film he produced, is called Harsh Times. It is one of his greatest performances but it's hard to watch. To say it's gritty is to say sandpaper is rough. But I've never seen such an accurate, relevant & frightening portrayal of a vet coming home, changed into a killer if his government asks him. Good costars too. I highly recommend it.
I also didn't like the films everyone else loved, like Hurt Locker, Mad Max, The Social Network, Steve Jobs, Inception, Gangs of New York, Wolf of Wall Street, Zero Dark Thirty, American Sniper, Bohemian Rhapsody, Green Book, Moonlight, A Star is Born (Cooper/Gaga), The Revenant, Moulin Rouge, Roma, Avatar, Gone Girl, Judy, 3 Billboards, and hundreds more. You'll notice some glaring absences in my list.
And even though i've watched a lot of violent action movies, the violence in them made sense. Still, I'd rather see a character study or a biopic any day of the week.

Really good list I have seen most of them ! I do like Christian Bale and the Dark Night Trilogy I’m just partial to the Michael Keaton Batman it had so many memorable quotes from him and Jack Nicholson. I don’t really care about cinematography or screenwriters and such I just like to be entertained when I watch a movie . Like I said I do like a lot of different kinds of movies anything that makes me think about that movie for days that impact me I like.Have you seen Midsommer ? That movie really stuck in my head for days really disturbing. I’ve seen Harsh Times a couple of times yeah it’s good also American Psyco.iI also enjoy The Fast and Furious movies as ridiculous they got I didn’t care pure entertainment.Some of the movies I have are really mixed everything from Alvin and the Chipmunks to the Exorcist and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. American pie movies to the Rambo movies.The Alamo to No country for old men . I could make a list but now I’m headed out to see Jon Lovitz at Brea Improv. Maybe I’ll make a short list later?
