The fact that neither Avatar, Top Gun nor Elvis won anything (save Austin Butler) is a good news. Blanchett and Yeoh winning in their respective categories is well-derserved, Farrell is undoubtedly champion and my pick for Oscars, "The Fabelmans" - not the worst choice. But my heart goes to Ke Huy Quan and Angela Bassett. 

I haven't seen the fabelmans yet - I tend to avoid Spielberg stuff that is navel gaze-y, but I've heard good things about fabelmans. Will watch at some point.

Everything Everywhere All at Once is both pretty good and also really, really over-rated (especially online). 

Aye. The way some people were reacting to this, you'd have thought it was the greatest movie ever made.

It really isn't.

It sounds like y'all have an issue with the reaction to the movie, as opposed to the movie itself - which are two fairly different things.

I thought the movie was okay. The wobbly fingers were funny.

What part of thinking it's about 30 minutes too long is a critique of the audience and not the film?

To balance out this discussion, I cannot see The Banshees of Inisherin as superior to EEAAO in any way, except for the acting being top notch in it, too.

Spoiler

It's a depressing movie about two men, one who is depressed about his lot in life and decides to take it out on his best friend, who is also quite depressed but doesn't realize it until his friend quits on him. Their conflict starts from nearly nothing and escalates in crazy fashion with nothing being accomplished in the end other than the two hurting each other and themselves.

It's also set in the backdrop of the Irish Civil War. But if the central plot is meant to be some sort of allegory to that war, I think it fails. The civil war had real, valid causes, the movie's central conflict not so much.

The movie is competently done, but any director/writer worth their money would have been able to make this movie. Its production is simple, even the cinematography didn't demand any extra effort. So I don't think such a film should be placed above other film that also have well written stories but offer much more in terms of everything else.

On the positive side, the acting is excellent as I said and the actors do deserve the accolades. Its dry, Irish humor is also on point.

The greatest thing about the movie is that Farrell's character is named Pádraic, which is almost the same spelling, and he can be blamed for a lot:P

Hah.  Those people in the West with their foreign spellings. :)

That is somewhat controversial.  It is quite difficult to justify the reasons for the Civil War.  The pro-war side lost the vote in parliament and a clear majority of the population voted against them in the subsequent election.  They pretty much took up arms because they don't get what they wanted (a fit of petulance if you will but with very tragic results).  Subsequent events, after the Civil War, showed that the basis for their arguments were wrong also, which doesn't help.

I'm sure there must be good articles out there which makes the case for the comparison between war and film.  Willful stubbornness definitely in there.

So yes, I think there is definitely a link between the two.  Maybe too closely for me to completely enjoy the movie. :)

Aftersun is probably my favourite movie of the year (the fact that it is based on the director's real life is shocking enough).  Triangle of Sadness next (crazy movie).  Probably Banshees after that.  And then EEaaO (which is the most creative).  But I haven't seen a lot of movies.

Even more than the question of the justification for the Civil War, such as it may be, the long and bitter legacy left by the end of the Civil War seems even more salient -- even when the war was "settled", the internecine divisions continued for decades.

Yet to see Banshees (grr, so long for the release here), but from what I understand of the story the central conflict of the film is a metaphor more generally for how grievances could spiral out of control and into endless tragedy. This goes for petty grievances as much as serious ones, when people stubbornly refuse to come to terms.

True.

And true.  You can certainly widen your comparisons beyond the immediate war.

After reading @Ran and @Padraig's posts, I feel pretty dumb for not working out just why Banshees was set during the Civil War. The bit of my brain that copes with metaphor must have been fast asleep when I saw the film on its release last autumn. I remember thinking: 'brilliant film with apparently random period setting'.

To be honest it really only clicked after I saw the movie and read up about it. The connection to the war is a little tenuous and I’m not entirely convinced the message of the movie is that clear, or even good. I enjoyed the movie well enough.

Honestly, it only became clear to me at the end (but when they mentioned the war was going on at the time, I did get suspicious).  But I don't think it was designed that people needed to know (since most people who watch the movie wouldn't know). 

And I do prefer the journey than the eventual message that for "petty grievances as much as serious ones, people stubbornly refuse to come to terms",
