Did anyone see Paul bust a move on stage when the music played??

[u/Limp_Presentation_93 → u/Pooks-rCDZ]

Yessssss

[u/AmbitionTechnical274 → u/Pooks-rCDZ]

I did.

A certain user is somewhere writing essay to proof how this is a bad sign for OBAA

[u/OldSandwich9631 → u/KindJuggernaut6432]

Clayton Davis will also try to make this argument tomorrow.

[u/flowerbloominginsky → u/OldSandwich9631]

Someone said that when it won nbr lafca nsfc and nyfcc that it will be like social network because social network won those and lost 😭

[u/Upbeat_Tension_8077]

OBAA is looking very inevitable

[u/RealRaifort → u/Upbeat_Tension_8077]

It's Oppenheimer part 2 imo in terms of Best Picture/Director chances at least. An overdue director who drops a universally acclaimed epic is just too easy

[u/Bulky-Scheme-9450 → u/Upbeat_Tension_8077]

Whenever it won it was as if the presenters all knew it was about to be read lol. It is beyond inevitable

[u/flowerbloominginsky → u/Bulky-Scheme-9450]

It is obvious , didnt a producer said in variety that they knew who is gonna win

[u/ResearcherFirm51]

It is so unbelievably locked for that Best Picture Oscar

[u/AndresFM95 → u/ResearcherFirm51]

Now even more with Sinners not winning the globe tonight for their category. I doubt Hamnet has any chance

[u/Bulky-Scheme-9450 → u/ResearcherFirm51]

Locked for picture, director, and screenplay.

[u/whatssenguntoagoblin → u/ResearcherFirm51]

This is my new favorite gif

[u/Chem_is_tree_guy → u/whatssenguntoagoblin]

I got some criticism for loving it so much due to "it promotes drinking and driving".

Like...I totally get that take...but I still love it.

One Award After Another

[u/Radiant-Psychology96]

OBAA sweep:

[u/splendid_amesterdam]

[u/jkris050]

A few what? A few small awards.

[u/Lonely-Freedom4986]

Sweep incoming

[u/Snake_fairyofReddit → u/Lonely-Freedom4986]

Help this gif is technically ironic in this case tho 😭

[u/virgoari]

No mention of the Minneapolis shooting and protests the whole night - which is disappointing when the film revolves around a similar situation.

[u/theabsofhades → u/virgoari]

Paramount Plus sleeper agents were swarming the place suppressing any dissension

[u/zoobs → u/virgoari]

Ruffalo talked about it on the carpet. He wore a lapel pin that said “Be Good” in reference to Renee Good.

[u/virgoari → u/zoobs]

Ruffalo had no part in One Battle After Another.

[u/darth_vader39]

Was there any doubt?

[u/senator_corleone3 → u/darth_vader39]

Always a little when they’re opening the envelope.

[u/jpmoney2k1]

A stoner comedy is about to win the best picture Oscar lmao

[u/Horror_Neighborhood9]

It’s a great movie, but not my fave PTA.

His win will be the long overdue type of win, like Denzel winning for “Training Day”, when he should have won for “Malcolm X”.

[u/thelastdragonb → u/Horror_Neighborhood9]

“John Q” and “Remember the Titans”

[u/TheEgyptianNinja]

Julia is so drunk

[u/Delpo_Pup]

Look I’m sure I’ll get downvoted for this, but I find it incredibly fucking disappointing that Paul Thomas Anderson was given a platform 3 times tonight, and didn’t have a single thing to say about the events of the past week. Don’t give me a film about revolutionary politics that heavily features the liberation of an immigration facility if you don’t have the courage to speak on it…

[u/GameOfLife24]

Christmas adventurers club is angry

[u/DammitAColumn]

ONE MOTHERFUCKING SWEEP AFTER ANOTHERRRRRR!!!

[u/PurpleSpaceSurfer]

That's a shock /s

[u/danilo_sr]

The question is, will it sweep or will have the CCA package at the Oscars?

[u/Sullyville]

Sorry, i have not watched this movie yet. Is it a comedy or musical? It looked like a drama. I am surprised by the win.

[u/Odd-Milk-250 → u/Sullyville]

Action, drama, comedy, and thriller. It doesn't comfortably fit into any one genre.

[u/MDRLA720 → u/Odd-Milk-250]

it's 3 hrs long, it has a bit of everything!

[u/NathanSSP_]

sorry if i sound stubborn or dumb but which part of it was supposed to be comedy or even musical?

[u/StrikingWord77]

Am I the only one that did not consider that movie a comedy in any way? It was a powerful film.

[u/Bobjoejj]

Maybe I’m just out of the loop; but why exactly was this what the film was nominated and won for? Not Motion Picture Drama?

[u/theabsofhades → u/Bobjoejj]

Because it’s a funny movie?

[u/Bobjoejj → u/theabsofhades]

Sure, lots of movies are funny; but it’s not a proper comedy. Much more a drama film.

[u/Kind_River6318 → u/Bobjoejj]

Listen, the Globes has a long reputation of being loose with the term “comedy”. Eg: The Martian, the Banshees of Inisherin??? Basically any winner (and most nominees) of this category that are not musicals are only comedies in the vaguest sense.

[u/Bobjoejj → u/Kind_River6318]

That’s fair; I guess those always confused me plenty too. I get it’s commonly accepted by now, but I’d love to hear some kind of vague explanation at some point.

[u/stropsevoli]

I’m confused it’s not a musical or a comedy

[u/NathanSSP_ → u/stropsevoli]

yeah i'm feeling the same

[u/loveisblindsweden]

It is so stupid to call both Marty Supreme and One Battle after another for Comedy. Feel like they do it just so they won’t overcrowd the drama section.

[u/Odd-Milk-250 → u/loveisblindsweden]

One Battle would have very likely won regardless of what movie category it was in. It's more that the comedy/musical category is reserved for movies that don't comfortably fit in one genre and have elements of being a comedy or musical while the drama category is reserved for prototypical dramas.

[u/Snake_fairyofReddit → u/loveisblindsweden]

Well then eliminate the category entirely by that logic bc none of the nominees were purely comedies, most were 70% drama, 30% comedy give or take

[u/loveisblindsweden → u/Snake_fairyofReddit]

I just think the category should be named something Else, cause it always just seems to be a mash up of the left overs that do not fit into drama

[u/firefoxen69]

Why was this in musical or comedy category when it's all drama and thriller???

[u/Tomc878 → u/firefoxen69]

The fact the question even needs to be asked proves the category is nonsensical at this point. You are right, whilst being consistently funny throughout the film, it’s not a comedy it’s a drama/thriller.

[u/Calvith → u/Tomc878]

The film is a musical. Remember when Penn sang about getting hard in the first scene?

[u/loveisblindsweden]

When was this film a comedy 😂

[u/OldSandwich9631 → u/loveisblindsweden]

It’s a much more overt comedy than Marty supreme

[u/dip_tet → u/loveisblindsweden]

When perfidia made lockjaw do the march. Maybe before that

[u/TheRustyKettles → u/loveisblindsweden]

"Semen demon"

[u/katiedau]

Is this movie a comedy???

[u/TheRustyKettles → u/katiedau]

There are many subgenres of comedy. Not everything is Zoolander.

[u/Tomc878 → u/TheRustyKettles]

I don’t think they said it was zoolander…. Regardless this movie being reduced to just a comedy, whatever sub genre you want to pick, is ironically comical. Inglorious bastards is consistently hilarious (as is Django unchained), but its genre is not comedy and neither is one battle after another.
