Oscars Playback: When 'Platoon' and Paul Newman capped off their long roads with gold

"You just like the movies that you like." Immortal. A summation of pretty much every social media comments-driven site, anywhere, ever. Joyce, I know you don't follow or care about this, but we salaam. As ever, youse twose are the berries. More, please, thank you. ❤❤

Alan Ruck should have been a Supporting Actor nominee for playing Cameron Frye on Ferris Bueller's Day Off. If he had, he could have beaten Michael Caine.

We are so back

I'm always so surprised at the movies you two like and dislike. Stand by Me seems like something Chris would love. Shocked to hear you don't love it and I def think it deserved a best picture nomination. One of the best films of the 80s in my opinion.

[@chrisjrosen]

I have to keep you guessing! To be fair, I don't dislike Stand By Me, but it's not one I love.

The claim from critics at the time that people were finally ready to deal with Vietnam makes not sense, as the Academy had given The Deer Hunter the top award several years earlier.

I feel like Joyce doesn't particularly care about Stand By Me because her subconscious knows that two of the actors went on to be in Star Trek series.😂 Any chance of a podcast where Daniel and Rob talk about Star Trek movies? At least do an episode every time Joyce mentions not having seen one of them. #goodpeopleonbothsides 😉🖖

Chris get off of Crocodile Dundee 🐊 😳 🤣

Platoon got it Alllll right But I prefer Hannah and Her Sisters. But I understand and applaud Platoon. Personal fave of Stone to me was JFK. For me, faaaaar superior to Silence. While watching Silence it Never crossed my mind it was the best film of that year but whatever, rarely does my choice win. Take out The Mission, 🗑, and put in Blue Velvet easily. Take out Paul Newman, no Oscar sorry, and James Woods and Please put in Goldblum, yes, and come on Broderick!!! With Hoskins winning!!! Let's don't even start with IMHO let's give it to the deaf girl. Turner should've won for an Incredibly tricky role. She was sensational 👏 😍 ✨️ Dianne Weist all of the way but man IAdore Maggie, so rough and structured and prissy and conniving in A Room. Nothing better than the kiss in the fields of poppies in A Room. I could and Do watch that scene over and over.

[@chrisjrosen]

JFK is one of the great movies ever made.

[@timgriffin3368]

The Mission is 🗑 Watch Siskel and Ebert from then.

[@SoulKnightKing]

Top Gun Maverick shouldve won Best Picture, Adapted Screenplay, editing and cinematography

[@KaiOpaka]

To quote Joyce from this very thing: ".....No."
