Live Poll: Oscars 2019 — Best Motion Picture

A Star is Born

Bohemian Rhapsody is my number 1 pick, but I am yet to see everything except BlackKklansmen, Black Panther and A Star is Born and the latter should not even be nominated. Glad to see its momentum fading quickly.

My hopes rest on The Favourite, which will be released soon in my country.

(Just saw that our  distributors, in their infinite wisdom, slapped a tagline onto it: The Favourite - Intrigues and Insanity. *facepalm. They do that all the time. Cold War - The Latitude of Love.  Green Book - A Special Friendship. Vice - the Second Man. Isle of Dogs - Atari's Journey. And, I kid you not, Wag the Dog - When the Tail wags with the Dog. Sorry for the rant, lol. I would make a poll about this madness but I don't want to spread these crimes against humanity.)

Bump!

Best film of the year: Green Book

When I see this in the theater with my sister, Sierra, I'm excitedly rooting for Best Picture Ever, Bohemian Rhapsody! Alright!

The Favourite.  So great to see Lanthimos receive mainstream recognition.  The director's first real dip into "genre" is as warm as it is caustic.  Above all, it's funny.

Congrats on the poll Kyle! The movies that will battle is Roma and Green Book. For me if Roma wins will be a major mystake, Green Book is  really an amazing film.

From the 8 nominated, only 3 of them are worthy of winning: Bohemian Rhapsody, The Favourite and Green Book. I liked A Star is Born as well, but is just one step behind. Vice and Roma have great acting, cinematography and editing, but not enough to make them a great movie as a whole. Blackkklansman is a good and enjoyable film, but is not worthy of a nomination in my opinion. And Black Panther... well, nothing to say; its nomination left me speechless.
It hasn't been a great year for movies to be honest, specially comparing it to previous years. And I hope the winner is a movie that truly deserves it and that we don't get another moment like Shape of Water winning over Three Billboards.

Bohemian Rhapsody is currently winning. One of the most insultingly mundane, predictable and utterly lifeless biopics in a decade is currently winning. You could argue objectively for it being the worst film on the list... and you people are voting it number 1. The denizens of IMDb have shown themselves to be the plebs they truly are XD

"Roma". It's exactly the sort of film that will be an inspiration to future filmmakers much like "The Silence of the Lambs" and "The Godfather" are, plus it's time for an incredible foreign film to take the big prize home when films like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Amour" were close.
If "Bohemian Rhapsody" wins, it will quickly become the worst Picture winner since "Crash", perhaps ever with time. And that goes for Malek's performance, too. The scenes of him playing Freddie Mercury off stage are astoundingly hollow and feels like... well, I can't think of the proper words I would use to describe it, but out of 2.25 hours, he only felt like Mercury for a combined twenty-five minutes and for a movie that's supposed to be an unadulterated love of all things him, that's embarrassing.
