[@Robert-ci6sj]

I don't know why nobody reacted the same way for Everything Everywhere All At Once. That film was so bad and was uplifted by the academy only for the people who were in it... it was so much ideas cramped into one film, that none of the ideas was executed really well.

[@randomguy6695]

⁠@@Robert-ci6sj I disagree. That’s a terrific film that shows an Asian family in disarray and an overwhelmed mother who starts to question her life choices. But it puts a fantastical and fun spin to it. That’s why it was beloved. It was creative and objectively, a good movie.

[@Chrisratata]

​@@Robert-ci6sjhard disagree on that one. EEAAO was gorgeous! The humor isn't particularly for me, but the themes are so resonant through the use of a premise that works so well for it. I get why someone wouldn't like it but acting as if your hate for it is proof that no one loved it is just shortsighted

[@heavybattle6650]

@@Robert-ci6sj I agree completely, except EEAAO is definitely not as bad as EP.

[@Robert-ci6sj]

@@randomguy6695 fun? fantastical? it was over the top tv commercial stuff. has nothing to do with cinema filmmaking. it works for the superbowl or the music videos the Daniels make, i love their videos, but the film was horrible - just a super cut of stolen ideas from way better movies and cheaply executed. if you have seen all the originals they have copied than it was more like Scary Movie or something... except Scary Movie was a great movie but did not receive endless oscar nominations. It was 100% not OBJECTIVELY a good movie. Subjectively maybe if you can relate to the foolishness, you like the humor and dont get distracted by what they stole badly.

Your description of Jacques Audiard was top notch! 🤣 Funny thing is, when I watched it I thought nothing of it… it was ok (I’m Mexican, btw). It was until the director and Karla Sofia Gascon started selling it as “art” and “powerful” while they were being actively racist and pretentious, that’s when I my rage started. Side note: you have a great voice !

[@tofansultani8472]

13 nominations…13 NOMINATIONS… it’s more than both Godfather and godfather 2, Schindler list, return of the king and many other masterpieces…

[@mattparker81]

I went into watching it with a neutral outlook, I certainly didn’t want to hate it. But my god, every choice Audiard made was insulting on a basic level. Insulting to the people it claimed to represent, insulting to logic, insulting to intelligence, to emotion, to the art of cinema. It’s one of the worst films I’ve ever seen, and I’m not exaggerating. It really does just jump between ideas every act, as if we’re in a new film, but it seems to believe in its cohesion. Ideally, it would just be seen as a mistake, the way directors or whatever have mistakes when they leave the things they know, but for it to then be championed by the Academy, it’s so crazy. A bunch of people thinking they’re championing the underdog and fighting the power, when they’re just a really clueless elite. I haven’t hated a film this much in years.

[@Choekaas]

What's interesting is that in one of previous films, "Dheepan", Audiard does a fantastic job highlighting the immigrant experience for a Sri Lankan. However, the main actor who is also an author, collaborated a lot with Audiard so the film was more accurate with Sri Lankan culture, the Tamil Fighters soldier program and their language, so they made changes to the film. It seems like "Emilia Perez" did not have anything like that.

[@zachrincon327]

The kind of movie that's so bad it actually makes you think about how astonishing it is that the French have actually contributed so much to cinematic history in the first place.

[@oogiegoogie2826]

I think that present day Hollywood could learn a lot by revisiting 70’s movies. What I love most about films from the 70’s is they explored different sociopolitical and philosophical issues but didn’t try to blatantly funnel the viewer into one narrow conclusion. They trusted the viewer to take in everything and find the meaning themselves. They dared to be morally gray and give a wider perspective on things, which made the writing feel more honest and less manipulative. Dog Day Afternoon is one of my favorite films of all time, and I could go on and on about what that film says about modern American angst and frustrations, mental health, the media, LGBT identity… so many things. And it does it all without lecturing or even really telling you how to feel about all of it. None of the characters deliver some trite monologue explaining what it all means. You just absorb it through the events portrayed and the perspectives through which they’re portrayed.

[@JohmathanBSwift]

Very well said. Best comment of the day.

[@quirkyjoeAnimated]

I don't think Hollywood would make a film Like Emilia Perez. It's too bold, melodramatic and stupid.

[@coreyconway]

Everyone I've heard says the same thing. Will it sweep the Oscar's? Probably, it's Hollywood with their blinders on.

The first three seconds of this video is everything we need to know about the film…and it has 13 Oscar nominations…and I think we can all foresee it winning all 13 because it’s Hollywood.

[@Poonishar]

I was thinking of watching this, and you have confirmed my fears! Thanks for taking one for the team 👍

[@Washington-Dreaming]

I’m not going to watch “Emilia Perez” (EP) but it sounds like a similar plot to, “Dog Day Afternoon” (DDA) with Al Pacino. I think DDA was based upon a true story. I guess some guy had a boyfriend who wanted a sex-change operation but they didn’t have the money so they held up a bank to rob it for “seed” money, or rather “not seed” money. Take your pick. Ahem. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen it and it has its ups and downs. But maybe it was the start of Pacino’s career? But DDA was not a musical and for good reason: a musical treatment of the screenplay would’ve been a disaster.

[@kleins-v7v]

Dog Day Afternoon is a perfect film in my opinion. Puts most best picture nominees to shame.

[@izetyusein3323]

I have a question. How did the same guy that directed one of the most visceral and brutal prison dramas in A Prophet, directed this?

Been waiting for you to tackle this one. Nobody or next to nobody actually likes this movie. It is even getting panned in Mexico. As far as musicals go, can we now say that 'Dear Evan Hansen' a movie that got shunned by the Oscars really was not all that bad?

[@JohmathanBSwift]

Dear Evan Hanson. I'll look it up. Thank you. Yes EP is a musical, and it won that for the Golden Globe. The song Lady is bad. I actually skimmed through that song and the opening song. I didn't hate the movie. Hate would be I just shut the movie off. I didn't like the fact that it received some many awards and nominations, for I bumped it up to the top of my watch list. While watching it I kept saying, "Why does this have so many awards"? I still ask myself that.

[@pmonkey4life]

This whole video had me rolling! Especially the sing-talking shit. Always love hearing your take :)

[@apollo1493]

Fun fact: a Mexican trans woman went and made a parody film called “Johanne Sacrebleu” as a response to Emilia Perez, where instead of a cartel it’s a baguette industry. I just think that’s hilarious.

[@johndoderino2609]

It's a "zeitgeist" film in its reception more than anything; years of culture wars insanity reflected from all corners of the political spectrum. I don't think Audiard started out to make a big controversial statement, (rather just a wild melodramatic musical) but was clueless and tonedeaf about how a film with this many hot topics would be received. Anyways, everyone chill out & go watch "A prophet" and "the beat that my heart skipped", the films Audiard should have won every award for

Other internationals better than EP. How to Make Millions Before Grandma Dies, Didi, Vermiglio, The Seed of the Sacred Fig, The Children of The Train, are just a few. EP for Best Cinematography, you have to be kidding. If the Oscars want inclusion, why snub All of Us Strangers? That should have at least received a nod. EP wasn't a bad film. I enjoyed some, but to receive all of those nominations is just damn silly. The Red Dye Dump. Laughhhhh. edit. I did scan through some of EP. I enjoy musicals, but some of those songs.

The only good thing about this movie is how it united all latin america to trash it.

All the nonsense Selena Gomez says is entering the latin american lexicon as a meme. I've heard the "me cortó la lana, cerró la llave, no funciona ninguna tarjeta" and the "ya me duele la pinche vulva" phrases with the broken spanish accent in random conversations in a Simpsons like frequency.

I've watched this one in the end of December and my thought was it's kind of interesting that a change of gender changes so much her perspective about violence. It's not by any means rewatchable or prize level but the amount of Oscar's indications seams to be a trend in the last years: super ok movies over hyped in prizes like Everything, Parasite, Oppenheimer and the list goes on. People just think too much about these prizes. It doesn't worth.

Zoe Saldaña is portorican ,not mexican, Karla Sofia Gascon is spanish, Selena Gomez is american of mexican descendence. And we had a lot of complains in our country because the director said he didn´t find talented actresses here in México and besides he stated that Spanish was a language of poor people and migrants. And Karla could be removed from the Oscars competition, since broke the rules of not insulting peers and public and had to close her ´´x´´ account´´. Cinepolis is a theatre network that has been forced to return the money paid for this film since it´s guaranteed in its slogan the satisfaction. That was unprecedented , and a mexican transexual made a satire called ´´Johanne Sacreblue´´, and was so succesful in yt that it was decided to make it a long lenght film instead of the 8 minutes short film that will be released at cinemas.

[@KungFuIsland]

I'm on the left and the idea of someone who has been responsible for unspeakable crimes starting a nonprofit to "right their wrongs" is possibly the most lib-brained concept of "taking responsibility" you could write into a film...bordering on satire. I haven't (and won't) see this film, but maybe those who are still planning to should try to visualize it as campy satire to make it more tolerable. Honestly, this movie is just elite brain-rot and maybe fantasy, similar to how "Sound of Freedom" and Sorbo films seem to be made for evangelical conservatives who think Antifa has a human-trafficking operation set up in the rural Midwest. It's brain-rot...all of it.

The worst part is that none of the actors are Mexican and the movie was not shot in Mexico, the movie was shot in Paris. Furthermore, this movie is about mocking Mexican culture/society and truly portrays a "Garbage" image of our country. FYI: The Mexican journalists at Cineteca Nacional located in Mexico City January/14th, were waiting for the French director Jacques Audiard and talk about the film and he didn't show up...COWARD.
