If Iron Dwarf had turned up I would have advised him to grab an MI actor quick. It was his last hope I think.

Payback for me rooting for daisy to win the genius?

I'm all for eliminating a threat!

Let's be transparent then. It was your last chance at getting rid of me; you don't care about I_D

#204

It's nice to be feared though. Means I'm doing something right

Well, let's not get too hasty with 'last' chance

Shade thrown, shade thrown.

Beale Street seems to be showing an initial release for 11 January.

Don't mind me, I'll be putting together my ransom note.

#208

I'm also seeing 30 November. Get it right, fartfaces.

#209

Looks like Jan 11. Time to get rid of Kiki.

This weekend, we may possibly have all missed a dark horse for some awards... though it seems destined to be overshadowed by its splashier gay-conversion-therapy sibling with its big name celebrities, The Miseducation of Cameron Post is earning serious raves for its star Chloe Moretz. Alas... too late.

Not too late for me.

Oh dang, nice call INH, I didn't even realize she had been picked! Odds are the film gets rewarded more from the Indy Spirit type groups, but you never know at this time of year when someone can break out...

Woo Ant Man bout to cross 200 million

Guys they've added a new Oscar category. Points.

#222

lol, that new category is awful.... the worst idea they've ever had... and it doesn't kick in until next next Oscars.

Spreadsheet is updated, as always check for mistakes, omissions, etc.

Rats

#224

Damn, I was hoping it would kick in now lol.

#225

Although it probably wouldn't have helped me.

#226

I'm 95% sure it is for this year's Oscars

#227

I'm 95% sure you're correct.

Odds are now 99.75% overall

Nothing like honoring the most profitable African African production in history by creating a "separate but equal" category for it to win.

Surely they see that's how people will see this right? Surely they get that. Surely they won't fuck up so incredibly bad.

I saw The Darkest Minds today, and I predict that movie will net me a grand total of zero points.

#231

Judging by the early reviews... I made a terrible mistake dumping blackkklansmam

Got my 200 mil today. Gonna be a close one but I think I have enough Box Office to narrowly avoid being eliminated.

#234

Spreadsheet updated! No movement in the rankings this week...

Glenn Close has earned RAVE reviews for The Wife, so kudos to Golden... he could have the Best Actress Oscar winner on his hands...

The Wife looks bad.

#237

Man, only 3 of my entries have cashed in. I WANT MORE!

Most reviews are lukewarm at best towards the film but the praise for Close is off the chart. Best comparable would be Julianne Moore in Still Alice... insanely good performance in an otherwise by the numbers film. And Close has never won after a ton of nominations, much like Moore.

Oh my God this looks good!!!

I hope nobody had The Billionaire Boys Club.

#242

Crazy Rich Asians anyone have it?

I could have sworn someone had it but dropped it

I just saw that movie. It made me squirm in my seat.

Yeah it doesn't strike me as your kind of movie, not enough grit. The critics love it though, if you like rom-coms.

#248

For whatever it's worth, Mary Queen of Scots have apparently opted to skip all of the fall festivals... that doesn't bode well. I'll update the spreadsheet tonight

I think I was put off by the wealth and glamour. That lifestyle makes me retch. That was kind of the point to some degree though, so it’s all groovy.
