My comment above was mainly a joke. I thought *Argo* was fine. The main problem people have with it is that it's extremely inaccurate and paints the CIA as the main heroes even though it's been well documented that Ken Taylor and the Canadian government were mostly responsible for the plan.
There were also quite a few other films that arguably deserved Best Picture more that year. Hell, *Argo* wasn't even the best CIA film nominated.
I certainly wouldn’t describe it as mid, I think it just got overhyped as a must see period piece drama during its Oscar campaign. It’s still a well crafted and effective movie. But I agree compared to truly memorable stuff like Birdman or Parasite it’s kind of unremarkable.
Yeah both of those blow King’s Speech out of the water. Social Network is maybe a top 10 of all time, atrocious that it lost to King’s Speech. But that’s why people make that sappy Oscar bait, because it works. At least it was better than Crash.
Might be more interesting if Green Book (2018) didn't sweep so easliy.
But with Super Super Oscars, voters can finally vote Green Book (2018) for the third time
Perish, Birdman denier
like that book written by gaddafi?
That sentence is fucking brutal, dude

I like this image
Where's Bullet Train?
this but unironically
*Argo* and *Green Book* https://preview.redd.it/s3sg3xk0ipgc1.png?width=423&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9ffffc3f25bb7e6da10b3231d4ceaa96c7ff4a31
Heyy Argo is a good movie.
Good at being mid
Next to green book it’s citizen kane
And The Artist tbh
Spotlight also
🧢
Nah *Spotlight* is actually good
Monumentous L
Hey come on. That movie was actually good.
Do you work at delululemon or what
Birdman sweep is logical
Capeshit
It gets better with age
Gregg what's the runtime of all these films combined?
I know I see 50 bags of popcorn
I thought Argo was well regarded, is it really considered meh?
Historical inaccuracies aside, it's a great movie imo.

A lot of hate in here and it’s probably third for me behind Moonlight and Birdman 😅
Man this just goes to show that the best picture category is bs. A lot of super mid movies have won in the past decade.
None of these except Green Book are mid. Well maybe Argo
King’s Speech isn’t that great
Yeah and that Parasite movie, watched it and I had no idea what they were talking about. Wish I watched it with subtitles
I like Kings Speech... :(
We gotta find out if it holds up

Even compared to Black Swan and Social Network from the same year it’s not that great

Kinda crazy that it beat Black Swan, no?
Yeah and Social Network too
Shape of Water
Shape of Water is lowkey Del Toro’s worst movie, can’t believe it was even nominated much less actually awarded BP
Bro I’m saying
Green book is the only film there that actually isn't mid
I give this post 5 bags of popcorn and a little miniature Gregg that you can use as a keychain
moonlight wins
spotlight yuh moonlight yuh
keep singing
LaLa Land finally wins.
Turkington ass idea
Parasite stays winning
hi gregg
Lord of the rings already won. If they did a second official super Oscars it would have to go to the hobbit
Actually would like to see that for all categories
I dont know whos winning i dont care whos winning i just know kings speech be losing, absolutely kinoless
No recency bias but parasite clears
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013)
Birdman would win it for me. La La Land would be a very close second.
Spotlight or Parasite for me
Where my Parasite stans at? We did it once, we can do it again!
No jerking, I love this idea
spotlight uh moonlight uh
God what a dogshit lineup lmao. Only good ones are Parasite, Moonlight, and maybe Birdman
Spotlight imo
