A massive load of bollocks. Actually my PTTGOMN for the Oscars is the fact that it is the top story on the news today. Vacuous nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Oscar bait is fucking horrendous these days. There's films getting made specifically to make sure they fit in with the criteria; Period drama/Racial tension/Physical or mental disability. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_bait 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always get a bump from playing someone who already has a public profile, particularly if it's a good or sympathetic one. Malek is the latest, but Redmayne's Hawkings in 2014 also fits the bill (Keaton should've won for Birdman that year), as does Oldman's Churchill: Despite that movie having little in common with historical reality, or even bothering to have a basic 3 act structure. His was not even the best portrayal of Churchill on screen of late - John Lithgow in the crown was much better. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Don't care about the Oscars, but there's always something a bit unreal when someone like Sophie from Peep Show ends up winning (what people generally consider to be) the top acting award. Seems like she's becoming the new Judi Dench over there. Also, Black Panther a shite film? Behave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Bohemian Rhapsody and Black Panther won an Oscar.Both were shite.Ostentatious liberalism can get in the sea along with Trump and Brexit.If it’s any consolation Only two of Black Panther’s three Oscars went to black people.The music was by a Swedish dudeThe other two were for production design and costume design and while there are quite a few things to fault Black Panther on* those two aren’t amongst them.* Chiefly casting Tim from the office as an action hero 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

port-ton Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 On chilled food that is suitable for freezing it tells you to freeze it on the day of purchasing, however it doesn't know whether you bought it on the first day it went out on the shelves or if you bought it the day that it's due to go out of date, so why doesn't it tell you to freeze before its best by date instead? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had heard they were changing that to say "Freeze as soon as possible". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesP_81 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Cheers. had a bit of a cold anyway then had a big lad crash the top of his head into my nose on Friday. Was away this weekend and realised I couldn't smell or taste anything. Maybe another thump in the same place will restore the senses. A friend of the in laws got a kick in the head from a horse 15 or so years ago and hasn't tasted or smelled anything since seems to be a common condition after a severe knock. Saves a fortune in food bills now tho as he only drinks water and eats plain rice or pasta as says no point paying for something nice he cant taste! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother in law goes for texture since he lost his. Used to love a Vindaloo but can't stand it now as all he gets is the heat with none of the taste. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - was out for dinner with Mrs on Saturday at this nice place she'd booked in North Berwick and she kept asking how my food was and I had to tell her I'd no idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
