I think EEAAO will win Best Picture, but Banshees was slightly better.
For Actor, I haven't seen The Whale because I wasn't interested enough to see it in a theater and I'm not paying $20 to stream it just because Aronofsky thinks all movies should be watched in theaters. I keep reading that people don't like the movie but like Fraser's performance (which is how I feel about Austin Butler in Elvis), and that it is a portrait of a fat person as imagined by thin people. At this point I'll probably pick Butler as the winner, since his performance really was great and biopics do well at the Oscars, but it's probably neck-and-neck between those two.
Michelle Yeo will win Actress for all the reasons everyone else has said, and also Cate Blanchett already has two acting Oscars. I thought she was great in Tar, though, even though the movie itself was meh and
Spoilerpart of me thinks the last third wasn't real and was Lydia Tar's fever dream about the worst way everything could possibly go down for her.
So who's going to jump out of the audience and slap Jimmy Kimmel? Matt Damon? I kind of expect that to turn into an Oscars bit from here on out.

Pretty sure this doesn't exist. Anyone who did that would kiss their personal and professional life goodbye. And nambla was a south park joke if I recall correctly. Lay off the qanon websites.
NAMBLA is real. There was a South Park episode where Cartman accidentally joins it, and apparently membership has dwindled over the years, but it is an actual organization.

1. Pub trivia team name this week was "Cocaine Bear Stare"
2. Saw it tonight and it was exactly how I figured 95 minutes of a movie called Cocaine Bear would go. Much like Bullet Train in terms of violence/cursing/ridiculous. It was a great time if you go in knowing what you're getting.

Have any of y’all been restored without getting text notice of a crew being assigned? Is the info on the outage map being updated as far as whether crew is assigned, eta etc—- I think AE said they’re not updating it because all resources are in the field? Feeling really hopeless in 78757 and dreading going into office without lighting or shower to get ready … not to mention all the morning tasks with dog and getting kid to school. 121 customers in my outage, another 138 one street over
Ours was restored yesterday without any texts about crews. I had checked the outage map around midnight and the status hadn't changed from when I first reported it days earlier. The only text I got was when they restored power.

Grandma gives it 4 stars
“I got this because my grandsons are fascinated with chain saws and I thought this would be a good learning tool for them. I was correct. Under close supervision, they are learning about how to use a chain saw safely. This saw is also very handy for modest cutting jobs like trimming branches and cutting up fallen sticks. It has to be manually oiled frequently with the oil provided. The case is quite handy as well as the many accessories, including two extra chains which I feel will be needed soon. Overall, its a great little tool when used appropriately and a good learning tool for up and coming woodsmen!”
His nickname now is "Up and Coming Woodsman", right?

AISD said they'll let us know about school tomorrow by 3:30 pm today. Said that 20 schools are currently without power and besides that, many of the routes people take to school are impassible because of debris.

I know this episode is supposed to make us think about our need for connection with other people and how our love for them makes us better, but my kids were running around screaming like banshees earlier and I kept thinking "Bill got four whole years."

That felt like a post-apocalyptic version of the first 15 minutes of Up. HBO is nailing this series.

Just finished Fleishman is in Trouble, a limited series streaming on Hulu. It was mostly funny, but as someone who had severe PPD, I had a very visceral reaction to episode 9 (Me Time) and, to a slightly lesser extent, the last episode. It has a great cast - Lizzy Caplan, Claire Danes, and Jesse Eisenberg, to name a few.

I'll watch for sure. Big fan of Natasha from Russian Doll. Never really saw her in anything before that. She was kind of a hottie when she was young.
She seems so high in that interview. Love her in Russian Doll and Poker Face is on my list. Her voice has gotten much more raspy in the last couple of decades.

If I die doing something stupid I also want it to be described as a freak accident.
Reminds me of that line from the X-Files when Clyde Bruckman tells Mulder "There are worse ways to go, but I can't think of a more undignified one than autoerotic asphyxiation." I don't know, getting shot by your dog is up there.

As far as Austin area retail record stores, I have been going to Piranah in RR, and End Of An Ear on Ben White, near S. Congress/1st Street. Am I missing something? I know about Waterloo, but I hate engaging traffic to get to it.
Anyone else remember going to the record store on the drag at 21st after class? A Saigon eggroll and going in there are pretty fond memories.

Love Wheel Records is small but they have a well curated used selection.Love Wheel also has a 3-legged shop dog named Joe. So, cherry on top.

When my grandpa died in 2018, I got his 1952-ish Sears-Roebuck radio/phonograph.
It hadn't been functional in ages, but my mom and dad fixed up the exterior so we could at least display it. My husband and I had always wanted to get back into vinyl, so a few months ago we finally got around to making it functional as a record player - kind of. My brother had always wanted the internal turntable to display at his place, so we removed it, cleaned it up, and got rid of the ancient, decaying wiring.
We put a new turntable in the shelf where the old one had been, and added some powered speakers. Nothing really expensive or fancy, but now we can play records out of the refurbished device. It's pretty cool. Thanks, Pawpaw.

How did Miles Bron kill Andi? I missed that somehow. Or maybe they weren’t explicit.
SpoilerHe roofied her, then placed her in her car in the garage so that everyone would think she killed herself.

2023 Oscars Thread
in Movies and TV
Posted · Edited by austingirl
Yes, exactly.
I think it starts at the part where she goes to the abandoned building to bring Olga whatever it was that she left behind. When she face-planted running up the stairs, I started to think something was up. It was so out of character for this tightly wound, perfectionistic woman. What would embarrass her the most? Everything that happened from then on out.
I think I'm talking myself into liking it more and more, lol.
