OT: Consolidated Entertainment Thread (TV, movies, books, games) part VI - use spoiler tags!

I thought Anora was great and deserving of all the accolades. I think sometimes it's tough for the masses to rate character dramas on the level of more obvious, epic awards-bait but I felt it lived up to the hype. I still think about it, especially living in Brooklyn for 15+ years. And the end of it, the exhaustion of it, is very appropriate to the time we live in.

Also saw Heretic last night. Really fun, Hugh Grant is great - I love seeing him in these kind of roles.

The ending doesn't quite stick the landing philosophically, kind of chickens out but I guess it would feel cheap if it was definitive as well.

I don't care about the Oscars but I feel like I'm pretty up to date in movies and what's going on, I go every few weeks, never saw a trailer or poster or even heard of Anora until seeing it win everything so guess I live under a rock lol
