Best music film has to be Rocketman! It has to! What a performance! And what an important movie for the whole music industry. And for best game, I love The Outer Worlds – what an amazing RPG!
For best actor, Joaquin Phoenix should win. I mean, did you see Joker? OMG! The man was The Joker or should I say The Joker was Joaquin. He played that role like nothing else I’ve seen in the last 10 years! He deserves an Oscar for it.
I hear you. It really was a great flick. Joaquin was amazing in it, but I still hold Heath ledgers portrayal as the best. Not even given his tragic death afterwards. it was just an amazing performance that deserved all the kudos it got
I absolutely love Billie Eilish and ‘Bad Guy’!!! Crazy about it and I hope she wins because she deserves it. That voice is one in a million!
