Dune or Nightmare Alley should win Best Picture.

Damn. I've not seen a single one of the nominated Best Pictures.

I think that's a first since I've been an adult.

I think you would like Nightmare Alley. But I've been wrong before!

I don’t think I’ve ever watched any of the award shows…

I’ve only seen Don’t Look Up and The Power of the Dog. Both are streaming on Netflix.

I was almost tempted to watch Don't Look Up when it came out, but didn't.

Licorice Pizza is on my list to watch, I've heard really good things about that one.

Hollywood is dying.

They ran out of creative story ideas about 20 years ago.

I'm not sure they ran out. But they certainly stopped producing creative ideas 20 years ago or so.

Drive My Car!

I've only seen Don't Look Up. I thought it was hilarious how they spoofed all the silly protesting these days, but I never expected it to be an Oscar nominee though.
