You can never give Denzel enough appreciation.
It's a good movie. Just taking it personally in regards to any time it beats Moonlight, because that's a great movie.
Moonlight will be first loser out of the 7-9 non-La La Land nominees. You know what the academy is voting for.

there are like 2-3 people outright hating it. we are just saying it is undeserving for some categories which is true.

That's what I was saying good and deservedly so to. You guys won't shut the fuck up about La La Land winning a single other award.

I guess no one briefed the Frenchwoman on American Award show cues. I guess on French Award shows they can stay up there as long as they want rambling. Just a different culture
It's just people in denial because it won over their favorite movies (although I agree that something else should've won in the best screenplay category).

Janelle Monae is beautiful, by the way.
He had some sexual harassment kind of accusations. Two plaintiffs in a civil case, he settled a few years ago.
Personally, I think the Nate Parker double standards angle is kind of weak, since Parker's was a criminal case and those transcribed tapes of him presented at trial said a whole lot. But you oughta find a proper accounting of the Casey allegations if you wanna dig into it.

Guys there isn't that much hate for La La Land.
A lot of us just think it shouldn't have won EVERYTHING, only some of them.

uh oh someone hasn't watched Moonlight or Manchester
notice how the same people calling people salty haven't watched most of the movies La la land competed against.

It's absolutely fucked that Affleck got away with it, considering that Nate Parker didn't.
I wonder what it could be!

My yearly rage that The Americans didn't win shit.
Happy though that Moonlight finally got an award.
And good that the show producers kept Fallon out for majority of the show.
Eh. Moonlight didn't connect with me but it is rather good. Nocturnal Animals was the best of the year as a cohesive piece.

Appreciate the input folks. Interesting to see what'll happen at the Oscars in a couple of months.
Some unfortunately gross allegations from a female producer on Casey Affleck's "I'm Still Here".

Carl Weathers delivering Moonlight win
yep
If the allegations are true on both sides, Parker gang raped someone and Affleck behaved like a total perv fratboy.

I suspect it will get in more theatres after this win and the eventual Oscar nomination.
I've seen them, and they're good movies, but I think the "salt" in this thread stems from the fact that La La Land won over them. They're all great films though.

Mel and Andrew got robbed. Could care less about La La Land though, but congratulations to Emma.
Best wishes.
Best wishes.
No, Golden Globes is not a major indicator award for the Oscars.
We'll see what's what when the big guild awards happen.
Casey being white with powerful friends undoubtedly helps for sure, but also...
1. As reprehensible as sexual harassment is, it is not a "similar allegation" to rape.
2. Casey settled with his accusers. Parker harassed his accuser, tried to destroy her reputation, refused to apologize or admit to anything, got off, ruined this girl's life, ultimately pushing her to suicide, so there's no form of justice coming to her or her family ever.
3. Manchester is, by all accounts, the better movie and Casey's is, by all accounts, the better performance.

Nah probably Moonlight vs. Manchester
La La Land just won the equivalent of the bronze medal.

Moonlight is a really great film. Everyone needs to see it. I think it is a powerful piece of work that is sorely needed right now. I'm glad it won.
so which is it
there is no salt. Rational people think La la land shouldn't have won some awards that it clearly didn't deserve.
and then the La la land defense force came in every time accusing people who have seen all 3 movies of being salty. like what.
I think Hacksaw Ridge should've won something. It's right up there as one of the best war movies ever for me, alongside The Thin Red Line, Saving Private Ryan, Platoon, and Full Metal Jacket. Maybe I sound hyperbolic, but I've seen it three times now and I'm loving it more and more.

I should probably check out Moonlight. Did that have a wide release?
Yeah this one is my big award season blindspot. Really gotta get out to it.

His frontrunner status isn't as great as it once was though. He still has a chance to win though.
Nope. It's playing at cinemas that show indie releases or has larger screen count right now.
