We doin' hot takes on BP winners now? Ok.
Slumdog Millionaire is an ugly, nasty piece of business that tries to hide behind Bollywood conventions. And that worked on a lot of people, but it didn't fool me.

Nothing gets by you
You son of a bitch.
I liked Slumdog.
But not as much as Birdman

Variety: Wonder Woman: Warner Bros. Plans Groundbreaking Oscar Campaign for Director, Best Picture
And now the countdown before someone makes a thread on it. And the thread will get ugly before the end of the first page if they do so.

Seems like a massive waste of money, but I guess getting a token nomination could raise the movie's profile and give them something to throw on the bluray box.

Sillier things have happened than Wonder Woman getting in, like The Blind Side or Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close doing so.
Ugh, awful. Doing a (weak) dance routine after all the stomach churning violence in the film is not ok in my book.

No. But you know one of the lurkers who read this thread but don't ever post will jump all over it. The countdown is on.

Slumdog always reminded me of a Michael Bay movie more than anything.

Odds on my thread linking the marketing articles from earlier this year getting a mention?
People bring that shit up like I created the narrative and wrote the article under a pseudonym.

I always laugh at how "amazing" they portayed America when they save the little boy and gave him money.
I personally wasn't a fan of Slumdog Millionaire

Oh man, I think the couple next to me at this screening is literally breaking up as I type this.
I still don't see the issue with your article. Tracking for Wonder Woman was pretty bad 3 weeks out, and the actual opening was good, but nothing much better than average for the genre. No doubt that is playing into the near 4x opening weekend multiplier. A lot of Wonder Woman's business is coming from people who were convinced via world of mouth rather than stellar marketing.

Oh damn that's awkward
That's cuz it IS amazing. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😎
Get out while you can, dude.
That happened at my showing of Deathly Hallows part 2.
A teenaged girl gave a scream of despair in the middle of the film and ran out of the theatre. Then she came back in 20 minutes later with tears running down her face to scream at her newly minted ex before running out again.
I wonder if both of them regretted going for the $16 IMAX tickets for that particular event.

If we have to lay down our Wonder Woman opinions, I don't think it was best picture or best director worthy either.
It was above average for the superhero genre, but not spectacular. I'm glad that so many people are connecting with it though. I wasn't the biggest fan of Raimi's first Spider-Man film either, but those are they types of films that keep the superhero machine chugging along. Maybe Wondy 2 will be this decade's Spider-Man 2.

It won best Director.
It was a three year in a row for Mexican Directors for that award.

How about Argo?
Even with today's climate, I still contend Felicity Huffman was robbed by Reese Witherspoon for Transamerica.

Also, BGE, why are you using your damn phone at a screening?
And Cinematography too. Chivo da gawd.
Maybe his bros aren't around to chat with at a respectful volume?
If it was an hour and ten minutes shorter I'd agree

Maybe the film was too short and brought about an end to that couple's relationship. He was just there to report the casualties.

Honestly, Argo's competition wasn't so great that it sticks out to me. It's Affleck's worst of his good movies (Live By Night? haven't heard of it) but, yeah. No qualms.
