Extemely unpopular #Oscars opinion: I thought BLACK PANTHER was just okay, and more a cultural phenomenon than a great film.
I've seen only two of the other BP nominees. VICE is self-indulgent and unfocused, but made me angry in the way it intended. ROMA is gorgeous and moving, though hard to watch at times. Honestly, my favorite film of 2018 was BUSTER SCRUGGS. #Oscars
Last #Oscars thought: it's amusing that a plot point in ROMA involves the movie MAROONED, which was recut for TV and retitled SPACE TRAVELERS - and which was featured on #MST3K.

If you think Will's story is privileged libel of a private citizen, you know nothing about #QAnon. It's a violent and antisemitic cult that revolves around the illegal trial and execution of tens of thousands of people. Its believers should be outed at every opportunity.
What's even weirder about the outrage over the "#QAnon pastry chef" is that nothing she did was private. All her Q posts were public, she wasn't hiding her beliefs. What is the cult so mad about?
Did I write 900 words about the absurdity of the #QAnon pastry chef? You bet I did.

The worst #DS9 episode, "Let He Who Is Without Sin" is on, and I'm just tipsy enough to watch it. I had totally forgotten Bashir and Leeta were a thing. Along with everything else. 45 minutes of Worf groaning and neon pants.
Nothing here has any stakes. Riot on the pleasure planet? Just leave. And Worf and Dax's bickering is so repetitive.
The danger is that it starts raining. Literally, the worst thing that happens to these people is that Worf turns off the weather modification grid. Shit, LA just survived hail. Risa can make it through this.

It's always a bit creepy when #QAnon posts Bible quotes to motivate the fascist death cult he created.
Yet more new #QAnon. A bunch of random memes, a post where he corrects a typo, and one where he pretends to be Trump. How anyone believes this is real astounds me.
Because we're in the dumbest timeline, #QAnon has now posted about #JussieSmollett, alleging that the incident was a false flag to get an anti-lynching bill passed, because when "the great awakening" happens, many Deep Staters would have met their death via hanging.

#Oscars Black Panther'deki kurgusal ülke Wakanda'nın arkasındaki isim Hannah Bleacher En iyi prodüksiyon tasarımı ödülünü alırken tarihi bir başarıya da imza attı.

Bleacher, bu ödüle hem ilk kez aday gösterilen hem de kazanan ilk siyahi oldu!

Devamı ⤵
Yalnız bir anne iken hem iki farklı işte çalışıp hem de tam zamanlı öğrencilik yaparak eğitimini tamamlayan Bleacher, tabiri caizse sıfırdan yükselerek Marvel için çalışan ilk siyahi prodüksiyon tasarımcısı olmuştu.
Zamanla birçok başarılı işe imza attıktan sonra en büyük sıçrayışı Black Panther'le yaptı. Görevi prodüksiyon tasarımcısı olarak filmin geçtiği kurgusal ülke Wakanda'yı tasarlamak olan Bleacher, öyle muhteşem bir ülke tasarladı ki sonunda Oscar'ı da aldı.

The set is very red and gold and swirly. #Oscars2019
It wouldn't hurt my feelings to see Sam Elliott's mustache accept the award. #Oscars2019

1/91: BEST PICTURE
96% of Best Picture winners have a Best Director nomination. 90% have a screenplay nomination. 82% were up for Best Film Editing. Only @BlacKkKlansman, @The_Favourite, and @ViceMovie got all three of those.
2/91: This is the second Best Picture nomination for A Star Is Born, following the one for the 1937 version. Five other titles have multiple Best Picture nominations:
-Cleopatra
-Mutiny on the Bounty
-Romeo and Juliet
-Heaven Can Wait
-Moulin Rouge

Cultural appropriation turns Halloween into a nightmare thehill.com/opinion/civil-…
Halloween is again upon us. Across the United States, the prospect of frightening images have some pledging to skip the holiday or closely shield their children.
It is not the scary decorations or costumes but “cultural appropriation” that has triggered a tradition of recrimination and anger.
