    Not really. See past winners at Cannes and The Oscars. No correlation.

    Past winners never had the internet backing like Parasite. Every comment on r/movies was about Parasite , it was worse than Roma last year. I got tired of seeing those comments. Also , the Oscars is irrelevant since shoplifters lost last year in the Best Foreign Language Film category and robbed Jonny Greenwood for his score in Phantom Thread.

    Seems to me that you just want to be mad at something, I agree that Bong should have received an Oscar for his previous films (Mother and Memories of Murder are both masterpieces imo), but Parasite is a great film as well and we should be happy that the Academy is finally noticing Korean cinema. 

    The Academy only noticed it because it won Palme d'Or. They aren't going to care about Korean films (or any other international film) unless they win a Palme d'Or.

    Then why downplay it as something that won for just “woke” points if you haven’t seen ‘em all?

    I didn't choose a winner out of the nominees since I haven't seen all of the films (I'm missing Jojo Rabbit , Little Women , FvF, and 1917). All the movies I have seen except those 4 are close contenders , that is why I think the Oscar chose Parasite just because of the mainstream circlejerk.

    I don’t see the logic here... did you have someone else in mind for best picture out of the nominees or are you just upset because of the hype it has received

    is that going to be the new excuse whenever a non-american/non-white wins something?

    I don't really care about the Oscars. I just don't agree with the circlejerk I see on the internet calling it the best film of the century or shit like that. Bong Joon Ho's Memories of Murder deserves an Oscar way more than Parasite. I'm happy Parasite won because it helps Asian representation in Hollywood , but there are way better Asian films than Parasite that deserves an Oscar for best picture.

    Pokemon Sun / Moon
     
    Additional two:
     
    Destiny - buying this pay day
     
    Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue - releasing later this month, preordered

  7. This has got to be the most stressful experience I've ever had buying concert tickets and I'm only buying one for myself! Had to wait an hour and 15 minutes before I was able to look at what's left (not much - GA was already sold out) and the rest of the seated tickets are insanely overpriced, majority of them resale tickets. I had to snap one of them up because I didn't want to miss out so that's that. Definitely the most expensive concert tickets I've ever bought ($500). Buying KPOP tickets is no joke. My friend warned me it was going to be like this but I wasn't prepared for the amount of stress that it would come with!

     

    Who's going to the NJ concert??

     

    Also, those new Hera pictures of Jennie...I have no words. She's incapable of taking a bad picture.

     

    U fked up , there are GA tickets for $300 on stubhub rn. If you live close to the venue , you can just buy a ticket a day (or before) the concert for even cheaper prices.

  8.  

    shes my favorite as well, i found the ending of ep14 was so tragic so plan to on hold the drama for a while

     

    the drama seems no fun without her. rlytearpls.png

     

    You kids like dumb ass characters with occasional PMS outburst. I never understood characters they try to write as intelligent , but doesn't act smart at all.
