[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 7893169, member: 4937"] I don't watch enough movies the year that they come out to have a credible opinion. My favorite two movies of the year thus far have been: The Highwaymen Knives Out On the other hand, that may be the only two movies from this year I've watched, so hardly an informed opinion. I want to see: Jojo Rabbit Ford vs. Ferrari Once Upon a Time in Hollywood I really ought to watch 'The Irishman' but I pretty much detest 'mob' movies and Hollywood's continual obsession with them. Yes, I get that the mob started Hollywood as a money laundering scheme, but why the rest of the nation should be afflicted with your obsession with romanticizing criminals I've never really understood. In fact, I probably won't enjoy 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' because I get disgusted with Hollywood's obsession with itself as well, but Quentin Tarantino is someone whom I recognize as talented but who doesn't make art to my taste, and this is probably as close as we are going to get so I want to give it a try. Similar thoughts about the 'The Joker'. Don't really need a portrait of a serial killer in my life. As fascinated as I am by the historical study of warfare, I rarely enjoy a war movie. I don't know if the two facts are related. I rather liked the 1994 Little Women, but I've really no desire for a new adaptation. You mention how the Oscars usually give awards to a film of a certain 'type', and you are right, but I think it's also very interesting to go back and give a list of years where the nominations and the winners were in retrospect clearly wrong.
