Okay, so we have Academy Awards episodes of Movie Club on the way... We're already covering CONCLAVE and THE SUBSTANCE. But what other ones would you want us to tackle?

Nickel Boys and Anora were my favorite as actual movies but Emilia Perez would be the funniest

Austin

Anora is way funnier than you would think it would be! That gets my vote

PinkieOats

I'm so disappointed to see Anora at 8% - by far the best movie from last year!! Let's pump up those numbers

Mondo Cool

have seen all of these but emilia perez and Nickel Boys is one of the most stunning movies i have ever seen Period!! EASY winner for me out of the group and would love yall to see it too

mega64

Also, sidenote: We'd already seen DUNE and WICKED so we'd rather watch other stuff we haven't seen if possible. But if the results are resounding we can always evaluate the situation.

Blake R.

Need that "Penis to vaginaaaaa" intro from Rocco on Emilia Perez

Kenneth Forman

Dune 2, make sure to watch it on an airplane

Austin

also (especially if you can catch it in 70mm) the brutalist is worth checking out from a filmmaking perspective. It’s long, but it has a 15 minute intermission with an onscreen timer! So it’s actually more manageable than one might think as well (and now I want every long movie to have an intermission)

Mason Maki

I think Anora would be the most fruitful and interesting discussion, but Emilia Perez would be the most entertaining 😂

Kino Kowboy

Brutalist but I already know it would be a waste of time for Shawn

Jason Cryer

Anora and Emilia Perez are my votes

Jared Silva

I'd rather not see them watch Emilia Perez just to hate it like everyone else. It'll be a waste of everyone's time. Nickel Boys and Anora are legitimately great and worth analyzing and exposing to a wider audience.

Nathan Hanna

Anora is legitimately one of the funniest movies of the year, I think they'd love it. Rocco and Shawn, if you it doesn't win (doesn't look like it's going to) WATCH ANORA

Yves McCrae

Anora is just a great movie and not Oscar bait so that's my vote.

Nico C

Watch Emilia Perez so I don't have to

Jake Songstad

Why don’t you guys do a Discord Oscar Movie watch along?

Nezumi

I'm so sick of hearing about Emilia Perez at this point.

armed and nervous

You need to see the “from penis to vaginaaaaaaaa” movie

Grant Scullion

A Complete Unknown just because it's actually a decent movie that I haven't really heard people discuss outside of the marketing.

Theo

The brutalist is a great movie its long but i think its actually interesting tho you would appreciate it way more in imax. The shots are so good.

Matrixman92

It’s a crime that Anora is losing

hankey65

allow multiselections! i hope yall pick more than three watches. everyone has talked about emilia perez, do anora and brutalist... interesting good shit. conclave sucks and is boring. plus, i love the substance but rocco already talked about it multiple times - same with dune 2 :/// anora and brutalist havent been discussed or watched by you two and would have incredible discussions. sames with nickelboys and im stil here :'(

NoahTheNintendoNerd

I’m begging you please don’t do Emilia Perez. It’s Joker 2 level bad

NoahTheNintendoNerd

I second Nickel Boys, I think if more people saw it would be voted for more. It’s brilliantly made and would bring lots of great discussion.

John

This is why we want them to cover it

flashmozzg

It even has funny songs! Man to woman or woman to man?

NoahTheNintendoNerd

I understand wanting to see them dunk on it, I just personally think it’d be a bit much especially after they just covered Joker 2. It’s truly insufferable, I’m so tired of thinking about Emilia Perez

addMitt

I need them to watch it for me and give me their opinion that I will associate with... Because I don't want to watch it lol. But I DO want to have an opinion on it 💀

Adrián Ramos

If you watch Emilia Perez, please check all the controversy (so far) involving the director and the main actress, most of all in Mexico.

Hirohirobonito

Brutalist is incredible and would not be surprised if it wins best picture. Regardless of movie club, definitely watch it!!

Heathcliff

Dune 2? I haven't seen it myself, but it is apparently the best movie ever, akin to comparing Terminator 2 to 1.

Michael

Can’t wait for the substance episode to drop. Genuinely my fave.

Will Shute

Its not going to win, but Nickel Boys was extremely good

Andrew Suazo

Dune 2 will get the same reactions they gave for Dune 1, give that vote to something else.

Ellipsoidz

As Theatre actors yourselves, I think you might really enjoy Sing Sing and get a lot out of it. Many of the actors are actual former RTA members. I found it really powerful.

Mettakite

Emilia Perez - I want to know how shitty it is. Dune 2? Like for real?

hankey65

and rocco literally talked about it numerous times on the podcast already 🤦‍♀️

hankey65

i wish theyd talk about nickel boys :(

hankey65

rocco already discussed it multiple times on the podcast already

Neil Steffens

I would wholeheartedly agree with the people voting for Anora but the sex scenes might be too much for Shawn.

Oteka

Sing Sing was one of my favorites this year, I was disappointed it's not nominated for anything but that's the Oscars for ya.

Ellipsoidz

Actually Colman Domingo is up for best actor at least, I kinda think he should win too

Alec Mindt

Emilia Perez should have been nominated for a razzi. It's worse than Joker 2 and Madam Web.

Nell from Hell

It would be interesting hearing your thoughts on Emelia Perez. I'm trans and know all about how it absolutely fucking sucks from that angle, but I wonder if the boys being so close to Mexico would give them some insight into how bad it sucks from that angle too
