I agree with Nick in so many of his picks. And that final quote is spot on. Also, Joseph's: "What is this? A Spielberg hating youtube channel?" Sent me 😂😂
The more I listen to you guys the more I enjoy these reviews. Nick you are at your best when you don't hold back and tell the brutally honest truth about the film industry.
I know that NOPE was very divisive, but I was shocked that it was not nominated for Best Sound. The sound in this film is amazing. Anyone else dig the sound? I mean The Batman was nominated for Best Sound, like WTF !
I had to rewatch this video again. Nick when you say we need to talk about Best Actress noms shall we reminds me of Dana Carvey as the Church Lady. With Michelle William's performance you are thinking, "Well isn't that special?"
I don’t have many people to watch a movie with on the daily basis so as soon as I finish a movie I check to see if you guys have reviewed it and always happy when you have cause it’s like I’m getting to talk about the movie with someone even if I’m not talking at all. Love the channel
My personal ranking of the Best Picture nominees: 1. TAR 2. EEAAO 3. Triangle 4. Banshees 5. TGM 6. All Quiet 7. Fabelmans 8. Avatar 9. Elvis 10. Women Talking
13:35: omg, dude(s)!! I’m listening to this video, as I get into bed…and that noise sounded like there was a ghost standing right behind me, giggling. I had to rewind and make sure it was coming from the tv.
I just read this morning that Andrea Riseborough's nomination for "To Leslie" may be rescinded. I am shocked. She was superb in that movie, and definitely justifies her nomination. Have you heard of this happening? Has it ever happened before?
Thanks for doing this video- I was hoping you guys would. Some of the movies ( I agree) in this years' ceremony are just so "blah"!! Get well Joseph, and thankyou Nick for your always welcome critiques/opinions :-) :-)
Nick is so salty and spicy, like gourmet jalapeño kettle chips. Fierce and intelligent in his opinions, and I mostly agree. Plus he's a babe. You both are.
Avatar 2 was a pretty nature documentary sprinkled with teen angst. Maverick was a military commercial with good action scenes but trite and very lazy acting. It takes more than looking good playing volleyball to win an Oscar. And Tom needed better makeup, I could see the foundation. Plus nothing for The Woman King?!?! Really? I love me some Agela Bassett but Viola Davis acted all over her and then some.
As one of the few people that actually enjoyed “Babylon”, I was hoping you guys discussed Best Score… I’m hoping “Babylon” AT LEAST wins for that, it was nominated, right..? 🙃
I was very disappointed Nope didn't get 1 nomination WTH!?! Not film, not director, not an actress for Keke, and nothing in visual effects, sound, etc. either.. why not? Why no Emma Thompson?
Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack were phenomenal in "Good Luck to You, Leo Grande." The actors had nowhere to hide, and the script was so dialogue heavy in this underappreciated two-hander movie.
Not surprised by the no actress nom for Nope…I doubt she was even high on the list for consideration. The other areas probably should have been considered and probably were…But only 5 slots.
@@emmapepperoni9972 It sure seems that way, Emma. What if Spielberg had directed made the film Nope would they considered it then? These Oscar snubs makes me wonder whose doing the voting.
I also saw Tar twice at the cinema and will purchase a copy when available. Thank you for your thoughts and for responding to popular demand. I get the feeling they’re trying not to be elitist but its more special when you recognise masterpieces or a masterclass in craft. Still think Isabelle Huppert was robbed. Fingers crossed for Cate
This is a surprise. I like that you two are doing various things with your channel💖☺✌✌ I used to Oscar watch over 7-8 years ago and now I could care less LOL I just don't find it entertaining anymore. If you two were hosting I would for sure watch💯💯💯💯💖💖
All AR needed was to whip up ~220 votes from her buddies to get her over the line; not hard to get that crowd from say, Kate Winslet or Gwenyth Paltrow's contact lists. I mean, who cares about actually championing and campaigning their movies right? it's all about who has the longer contact lists now. /s
Ana De Armas was my favorite performance this year and it’s hard to see her get so much hate. She carried that movie. I think Deadwyler was snubbed and I think the way Andrea got her nomination is a bit shady 💁🏽
Andrea deserved the nod!!! She was flawless in her performance. It was a grassroots efforts because they didn’t have the money to campaign. I’d love to see her win
I haven't seen Till, and I actually like whatever Michelle Williams is doing in The Fablemans, but that performance definitely doesn't deserve an Oscar nomination.
Josef thank you very much. I agree with you everything you said. We are blessed with some great films this year. There are some really overrated films. Thanks again.
Nick you so eloquently state why the Academy or whatever they call themselves is so lame. I haven't watched the Oscars since I was a teen, and I'm almost 40. They reward Big Hollywood studios and executives but disguise it as something for the people. Their energy and their choices are tired, predictable, lazy, pandering and restrictive. Even the Razzies suck now because they're becoming more like the Oscars lol Your videos are on this are all we need! 🙂
yeah, i really don't get all the praise of 'the fablemans'. It's as basic of a story as it can get. If anyone else had directed I doubt it would be getting this much attention.
I know it's horror and it's not academy material, but Mia Goth in Pearl comparing to Michelle Williams in The Fabelmans, it's like 10 - 0. Also, if they want to award Steven Spielberg, just give him a free Oscar, he surely deserves it, just not a best director for The Fabelmans, every other director deserves it more.
Shocked by Danielle's snub how can an actress with less than 40% screen time get a lead nod how did this happen also Nope's none nomination was shocking.
I lol every time you call her little white Michelle Williams 🤣, and Nick was spot on with these well deserved reads! Oscars proving how out of touch they are, as usual.
Yeah I was surprised to see her there but then I also saw that there was a Twitter campaign which was spearheaded by a bunch of other very famous actors that were pushing for her to be nominated for that role, so I guess their say made a very big difference
“An industry that decides to reward itself can’t find its best virtues.” WOW
That is some gravestone worthy words right there
here for the unrestrained glee in joseph's face when nick get's shady
Glad this is up because I was very interested to hear your guys’ thoughts.
Nick, I WHOLEHEARTEDLY agree that Ana de Armas deserved the nomination, and Danielle Deadwyler should've replaced Michelle Williams.
I agree with Nick in so many of his picks. And that final quote is spot on.
Also, Joseph's: "What is this? A Spielberg hating youtube channel?" Sent me 😂😂
The more I listen to you guys the more I enjoy these reviews. Nick you are at your best when you don't hold back and tell the brutally honest truth about the film industry.
Let me tell you somethiiiiiiiiing!!! Nick's disdain for The Fablemans is giving me so much LIFE!!!
Same. It was such a bland movie.
I also loved Jamie Lee finally joining her mom and dad as an Oscar nominee.
LMBO love you Nick thank you for being so vocal and truthful.
Your rant about Deadwyler is exactly how i feel about her getting snubbed
The Fabelmans is released here on Friday. Nick has now got me pumped to see it.
Yes Nick!! Why Daniel didn't get nominated is beyond me, I cannot believe that either.
I'm confidently extending an invitation to you gentlemen to my house for dinner. The food will be well seasoned as well as the movie discussions 😄👌
"I don't even need to come to your house for dinner then" bahahah savage
It would be cool to hear Joseph's picks as well.
At least who he thinks should win
"mixed bæg" your Minnesota is showing. 😉
Very happy for JLC and Angela Bassett.
I’m here for Tár all day I would give it all the awards
I love how you guys always keep it real
Hirsch's cameo getting nominated is like Judi Dench's Shakespeare in Love role
Great takes, Nick! And I love how you cape for Black actors! You're a real one ❤
I know that NOPE was very divisive, but I was shocked that it was not nominated for Best Sound. The sound in this film is amazing. Anyone else dig the sound? I mean The Batman was nominated for Best Sound, like WTF !
95 years and one lead actress of color. Maybe in 95 more years we will get another.
I had to rewatch this video again. Nick when you say we need to talk about Best Actress noms shall we reminds me of Dana Carvey as the Church Lady. With Michelle William's performance you are thinking, "Well isn't that special?"
Oh boy, poor Nick is riled up today, but with good reason. This is why we all subscribe to the channel. Great job!
Am so glad that All Quiet received so many nominations. It was my favorite film of 2022.
Basically Everything was the best experience I had this year
I think Judd Hirsch might pull a Beatrice Straight on us.
i love guys so much
i am super happy Triangle of Sadness is nominated for original screen play, best movie and director.
Same.
I lost any faith in the Oscars when they nominated the first avatar film for best picture, like wtf?
Just saw To Leslie on Prime. Excellent movie and performance but still love Cate but hope it’s Michelle Yeoh.
Love you guys 💕
So glad Nick doesn’t like Elvis. I didn’t either .
Nick's frustration is making my day!
Just found your guys’ page and I love it. Keep it up.
All the Beauty and the Bloodshed. Is that the sequel to The Sorrow and the Pity?
He is petty in the most awesome way towards The Fablemans. I love this video and the clear disdain. 😂🤣 Top Notch!
Bless you, Nick. Appreciate your frustration.
I don’t have many people to watch a movie with on the daily basis so as soon as I finish a movie I check to see if you guys have reviewed it and always happy when you have cause it’s like I’m getting to talk about the movie with someone even if I’m not talking at all. Love the channel
Nick you are on fire and on point! YES Spielberg needs to just retire already and spotlight younger filmmakers like Mia Hansen-Love.
My personal ranking of the Best Picture nominees: 1. TAR 2. EEAAO 3. Triangle 4. Banshees 5. TGM 6. All Quiet 7. Fabelmans 8. Avatar 9. Elvis 10. Women Talking
Go OFF Nick! I wanna cry over Danielle’s snub! The Hollywood “club” ain’t ish!!!!
Tell us how you really feel Nick 😊
Joseph's a real propellerhead in this video with that fan in the background 🤪

Nick is on fire in this video “ if you think fablemans should win then I don’t need to coke to your house for dinner because the food will be bland”
Excited and so happy for Michelle Yeoh but Viola Davis was so disrespectfully snubbed.
I had to click on this video. I'm at work, but I had to get Nick's take on these nominations.
The Spielberg hate channel indeed lol!
Nick is so salty and spicy, like gourmet jalapeño kettle chips. Fierce and intelligent in his opinions, and I mostly agree. Plus he's a babe. You both are.
Ooh wee chile… I am never going to your house because the food will be bland and tasteless. LOL
Ana de Armas deserves her nomination.

I don't understand why Michelle is a surprise to anyone - she has been a lock since TIFF

@@sandrar.3847 So true, Sandra. Felt like I watching a fantastic play at times. Her performance definitely ranked top tier of 2022.
@@emmapepperoni9972 It sure seems that way, Emma. What if Spielberg had directed made the film Nope would they considered it then? These Oscar snubs makes me wonder whose doing the voting.
Tom Hanks got a razzie nomination for Elvis 😂
As he should have. That performance was odd and extra.
Must admit I’ve not watched the Oscars in 10 years or more…seen a lot of movies… but the Oscar’s isn’t interesting or indicative of a good movie.
I can’t wait for you to see Turning Red. It’s one of the few animated movies in years that I’ve watched twice. I think you’ll really enjoy it.
Puss in Boots is also a good animated film!

@@kyleb8655 as opposed to how much money your studio has to campaign and buy a nomination
See To Leslie!!! ‘Andrea Risenborough was excellent!

Yeah the nomination this year was underwhelming.

I’m hoping for an Everything Everything All At Once sweep.
Elvis being nominated for best picture is embarrassing
Definitely not best picture worthy
The Academy loves biopics :/
Jamie Lee Curtis over Dolly De Leon is criminal. I'm sorry
yeah, i really don't get all the praise of 'the fablemans'. It's as basic of a story as it can get. If anyone else had directed I doubt it would be getting this much attention.
Nick is right, people's love for Spielberg blinds them in regards to Fabelmans.
You look amazing sick!
I know it's horror and it's not academy material, but Mia Goth in Pearl comparing to Michelle Williams in The Fabelmans, it's like 10 - 0.
Also, if they want to award Steven Spielberg, just give him a free Oscar, he surely deserves it, just not a best director for The Fabelmans, every other director deserves it more.
agree about Till. WTF? she definitely should have been nominated - also that film deserved more recognition
Roger Deakin is being honoured for Empire… he is a legend.
👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
This made my day!
i thought they lived together 😅
Why isn't The Whale a smaller film??? that film has made nothing??? Best Actor category comment.
Michelle Yeoh should and will hopefully win.

Steven Spielberg is overhyped. That doesn’t mean his movies aren’t game changers but they’re not that great.
His best years are behind him that's for sure.
@@moondawwg almost. The west side story was very good
@@itsbeyondme5560 That movie was like waterboarding to me.
@@moondawwg compare to the original, he did a good job but I agree. His days had been gone.
In my opinion his best movie was "Schindler's List".
Mia Goth???
Omg i love your take on The Fablemans. That was the most boring movie ever
👏👏👏
Ok guys am I the only one that wants to know if Nick is biracial? is that a white man yall?
