That’s one of things I watch the show for Same! Well to be honest I never watch awards shows but I do like to see the performances from the Oscars and from the Tony's. Last year's I'm Just A Ken was amazing IMO. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33299-the-annual-academy-awards-general-discussion/page/285/#findComment-8562219

ProudMary February 9 Share February 9 We don't have--or really need--separate threads for the Directors Guild Awards or the Producers Guild Awards, but, as there is some overlap between the voters for those awards and the Academy's voters, it should be noted that Anora's director Sean Baker won the big prize at the DGAs last night. Anora also won the top prize at the PGAs last night. There isn't any overlap between the Academy's voting members and those for the Critics Choice Awards, but it's still noteworthy that Anora won Best Picture there on Friday night, too. It would appear to be a strong frontrunner for BP at the Oscars after this weekend's victories.

I wonder if the AI controversies that have plagued The Brutalist have anything to do with this.

I think it's a combination of the AI controversies and Brady Corbet's public declarations, which have had an unmistakable air of self-aggrandizement. Also, I liked The Brutalist very much, but it's definitely a movie people might admire but not love. I liked Anora, but I don't think it's that good. However, far worse films have won Best Picture, if it indeed wins BP. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/33299-the-annual-academy-awards-general-discussion/page/285/#findComment-8577144
