Fantasia's definitely getting an Oscar for this.

This looks great. And before you can say “another remake?!” let me remind you that Hairspray was a movie, then a musical, then a musical movie. This is no different.

And maybe this is the chance to correct the mistake (and I’m being generous) the Academy made when it gave all the Oscars the original deserved to Out of Africa.

And the nomination Taraji should have gotten for Hidden Figures.

It would be incredible if Halle Bailey got a nomination/win too. This has been a big year for her.

I don't go to movie theaters that often anymore, but I saw this trailer and was like "I know where I'll be that weekend". I know there will be some Oscar wins for this film, if only to make up for the travesty of the shutout for the original. This looks so good.

Out of Africa was also very good.
