Netflix recs?

Toni Collette was amazing - completely carried that movie.

Interesting to see if she gets an Academy Award Nomination

Ya she was deserving imo but do they ever give oscars to horror movies?

 

[Miggs]

Anyone watch any of Maniac yet?

 

[Rubashov]

Watching the Road to Calvary. Damn Russian birds are hot.

 

[candrew]

Watching the new (or old Joel version if you're a long time fan) Mystery Science Theater 3000.

Some missteps but a decent first season. Patton Oswalt is underused.

Season Two coming for Thanksgiving!

Collette got a nomination in the 90's for The Sixth Sense - she was way better in this film, so yeah.

I watched some of it. Snooze fest. My wife watched it and said it was way too slow, should have been condensed into an hour and a half movie.

Didnt't the Shining win an oscar? Psycho? the Exorcist? Rosemary's baby? Is Jaws a horror film or a monster movie?

None of those won Best Pic.

Ruth Gordon won BSA for RB. Psycho, Jaws and RB for nominated for about 10 Oscars combined.

The Shining was nominated...for Razzies.

It's insane how much TV has changed from 10 years ago (and especially in the last 5 years or so with the streaming services doing their own orginal series).

Back then there was like maybe 1 or two shows I wanted to start watching. Now it feels like a near infinite number of shows I want to watch.

The Razzies ain't that old. Anyway "fishing for some rough trade in a public toilet" was only asking if horror movies have won Oscars I think yes is the sound answer.

I watched the first episode. It didn't interest me at all, and there's too many TV shows out there to waste time on something that isn't somewhat amazing.

That’s what I thought. But IMDb has both the movie and Kubrick as having been dubiously nominated.

It could well have been an historical nomination, "worst of all time" or something like that.

Looked it up:

In 1981, Stanley Kubrick was nominated both for a Razzie Award as Worst Director at the 1st Golden Raspberry Awards[14] as well as for a Saturn Award for Best Director at the 8th Saturn Awards[15] for the same film: The Shining.

One Brow with a tale of redemption and woe.

New season of Big Mouth is out. And its hilarious

 

[Stoked]

I enjoyed Marco Polo but it’s only two short seasons.

 

[Rubashov]

Enjoyed this immensely.

 

[RandyForRubio]

Been watching Mrs Maisel.

Some very funny parts. Some not funny funny parts.

Her dad, the actor from Monk, is probably my favorite.

 

[Miggs]

Anyone watch American Vandal? I’ve read good things and the premise seems funny.
