Fanboys Anonymous

Welcome to another edition of 6 Flicks Picks, wherein I list all of the upcoming films that are scheduled to be released in the United States for the month which is about to begin and break down which ones I'll be watching in theaters, which ones I'll wait to rent at home, and which ones I'll be skipping out on entirely. After going through the list, I'll choose which six films stand out to me as the ones I want to see the most, even if there are more or less than six that interest me.

Note: The list below is based primarily off the expanded nationwide USA release dates on IMDB as well as some other random outlets if possible, so some information may be different. If I am missing some of the limited releases or the dates conflict in some fashion, please let me know in the comments below and any adjustments and corrections will be made!

Which films make the cut?

Well, despite this having so many options, I didn't feel like it had a ton of potential that I personally am invested in. Oddly, it seems like the theme of this month is a combination of "psychotic" and "guy has a relationship with a young girl". Strange. Anyway, given the list...

6. Red Sparrow — Honestly, I don't know. This doesn't seem all that interesting to me, but all of the other potential options were just slightly beneath it. I know I won't be seeing this.

5. Pacific Rim Uprising — Never saw the first one, but I've had it in my queue ever since it came out. I just oddly keep not being in the mood for it. Now that this is coming out, maybe I'll give it a shot.

4. Tomb Raider — I only played the original game and saw the two Angelina Jolie movies, but hey, it's got some potential to be a decent enough adventure flick and may go against the grain and not be a terrible video game adaptation, either, from what others have told me who are fans of this rebooted franchise.

3. Death Wish — I remember seeing the trailer for this and chuckling at how it was presented, so maybe it can be a fun, dumb action movie to shut my brain off and watch with a Movie Pass.

2. A Wrinkle in Time — Now this is actually something that did look interesting to me, and I can definitely see myself checking it out, particularly with Movie Pass being an option. I don't think it will be amazing, nor do I have any real anticipation for it, but it looks kind of neat for a fantasy film and it has some good stock behind it with the filmmakers and such.

1. Ready Player One — If I see anything this month, it will be this. I never read the source material, but we're talking a mix of geek culture the likes of which we've never seen before, directed by Steven Spielberg. Of course this is a watch.

Which films make the cut?

6. Before We Vanish — Um...what?

5. The 15:17 to Paris / Nostalgia — It's a bit of a cheat, but I can't really decide. I'm allowing this tie because truthfully, I don't want to see either of these, so it isn't as though I'm trying to sneak in more than six films, but more so that I just can't decide on anything but the top two. With Nostalgia, it could be heartwarming in a depressing way. With 15:17, I'm just curious how the people can portray themselves when they weren't actors.

4. Winchester — The story of the house is interesting and my girlfriend wants to see it, so this wins a spot for sure.

3. Game Night — This is totally a Valentine's Day film and there's a chance it's funny, as the trailer got me to hope that those weren't the funniest parts but showed enough of potential.

2. Annihilation — I'm purposely trying not to learn too much about this movie, as it could be another Arrival where I'm pleasantly surprised. It looks interesting, though, and seems like it could skirt the line between being sci-fi neat without being sci-fi overbearing.

1. Black Panther — This is the true standout and the only thing I've actually already purchased tickets for, well in advance. 10 tickets as always. Black Panther was one of my favorite parts of Captain America: Civil War and this movie looks awesome.

The nominees for the 90th Academy Awards have been announced, so it's time for us to talk about some of the surprises, snubs and our predictions of which movies will take home an Oscar in 2018.

A FEW NOTES BEFORE WE START:

Before we even get into anything, let me preface things by saying that this is one of those years like the 84th Academy Awards where I just don't find damn near anything to be interesting, and I not only haven't seen almost any of these movies, but I really can't see myself sitting through them because I know I won't like them.

This is because there seems to be two motivating factors behind the nominations this year: it's either a boring historical drama (like always), or it's some kind of political statement where the movie probably is being revered for its subject material rather than the film's execution itself.

Example, I hear outcries that Wonder Woman should have been nominated for Best Picture. If you replace the lead protagonist with a male, you'd all come to the realization that the movie isn't really all that good. I agree 100% that the film is important because it helps break barriers as far as having a female director and being a female-led superhero film, but that doesn't mean it matches up to The Shawshank Redemption. Please.

If a movie looks good enough to me, with or without an agenda, I'll see it. I really enjoyed Hidden Figures and Fences last year. I didn't, in retrospect, enjoy Moonlight as much and didn't want it to win Best Picture. A combination of these from this year is Battle of the Sexes, which I thought looked kind of interesting and it's not only a historical piece, but it's also about female empowerment. I didn't see it yet, but then again, I haven't seen Blade Runner 2049 or Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle either, and I wanted to see those, so...

I look at the list of nominees from this year and outside of a few examples, they all look to me like they were nominated because someone read the synopsis and said "I like the message that's going for" or "that seems like it would be an Oscar thing" rather than "I like this movie as a whole better than every other movie this year in comparison."

Get Out was fun as hell, and I enjoyed The Shape of Water and I liked I, Tonya more than I thought I would (but I'm glad it wasn't nominated for Best Picture). I'll probably try to watch some of these movies, even if I have to shut them off midway through.

Lastly, I just want to point out that when it comes to any "artsy fartsy" movie, as some would describe them—particularly those that fall under the Oscar-bait categories I'm talking about here—they don't stand the test of time. Nobody is talking about Brooklyn. Nobody ever brings up The King's Speech as the best movie ever. Have you heard anyone say a damn thing about The Artist or Moonrise Kingdom?

No. You didn't. Unless you're part of the film community that turns its nose to anything "mainstream" and revels in the idea that you're so much more sophisticated and classy.

Spotlight is a movie I didn't enjoy and I never need to watch again and wish I had that time back. Les Misérables was surprisingly delightful. Shit happens.

THOUGHTS AND PREDICTIONS:

Now, onto my predictions, which I'll be updating as time goes on and I potentially watch any of these movies.

BEST PICTURE

THOUGHTS: I think Get Out can be ruled out. I enjoyed it, but it's not Best Picture. The Shape of Water stands a chance, but I can see a couple other things taking it out of the competition. I don't think Dunkirk deserves it, or is really even in the discussion, as the same movie without the context of it being a war film which also happens to be directed by Christopher Nolan would probably get zero attention in comparison to what it got. Having not seen Darkest Hour or The Post or Call Me by Your Name or Phantom Thread or Lady Bird, but not seeing much of a point to really watch them as they probably stand not chance, I definitely put Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri as the favorite, for sure.

PREDICTION: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

BEST ACTOR

THOUGHTS: We can probably rule out Denzel Washington, who I think gets a nomination for basically being just always rock solid. Daniel Day-Lewis might be more of an honorary thing. Daniel Kaluuya was a total shock for me, and he won't win. This is really between Chalamet and Oldman, and I think it's a matter of whether the voters want to go with the story of the young kid with the positive message or if they want to go with pure acknowledgment. No nomination for James Franco for The Disaster Artist, though, which is surprising considering his Golden Globe win. Nothing for Tom Hanks for The Post, either.

PREDICTION: Gary Oldman for Darkest Hour

BEST ACTRESS

THOUGHTS: This is going to Frances McDormand. C'mon. Sally Hawkins is a nomination for recognition. Margot Robbie is a motivator of "we know you're killing it, keep up the good work" and the same applies to Saoirse Ronan. Meryl Streep is just Meryl Streep so she always has her name on this list. This is a one woman race, though.

PREDICTION: Frances McDormand for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR

THOUGHTS: The fact that two men are nominated for the same movie makes me think one of them will win, if not just by pure statistics, and between the two, Sam Rockwell is in the film longer and has a more dynamic character, overall. I don't think Richard Jenkins has it, even though I liked his character a lot in The Shape of Water. I'm also not sure if the Christopher Plummer nomination was because he's going to win it or because they just want to acknowledge how he stepped into a production so late and rushed a performance and somehow pulled it off. Personally, I think someone who was skipped over was Paul Walter Hauser for I, Tonya. He stole that movie to me and nailed his character to a ridiculous level.

PREDICTION: Sam Rockwell for Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri

BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS

THOUGHTS: Frankly, I don't see why Octavia Spencer was nominated. I don't think Lesley Manville has this for the same reason as Mary J. Blige—I haven't heard anything about their performances, so either I'm totally out of the loop on those two, or they must not be that great. To me, this is probably between Allison Janney and Laurie Metcalf, and honestly, I don't know which one stands out more (mostly because I didn't see Metcalf's performance)...but because of her Golden Globe win, I'll go with Allison Janney.

PREDICTION: Allison Janney for I, Tonya

BEST DIRECTOR

THOUGHTS: This is an extremely hard one to call. Don't count out Jordan Peele. I don't think it will be Christopher Nolan or Paul Thomas Anderson, but they aren't out of the running by any means. If I had to pick, I'd go with Guillermo del Toro, but with the whole political climate going on right now, Greta Gerwig might win just because she's a woman and that could give her some extra votes from people who could have seen the exact same movie and if it were directed by a man, wouldn't vote for it. Then again, there still might be people who vote AGAINST her purely because she's a woman, so maybe that will balance itself out in the most ridiculous way because neither political vote judges the film itself.

PREDICTION: Guillermo del Toro for The Shape of Water

BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY

THOUGHTS: These are some of the hardest to predict, as they can go one way or the other. Either they go to the exact same movies that win everything else like Best Picture, or they go to the runner-up as a consolation prize. Did The Big Sick get the nomination and that's good enough? I can see the same thing happening with Get Out, but in the past, when I've been hesitant to trust the oddball choice, I've been proven wrong, so maybe I need to give some credit where it is due that it might happen, especially since it won for the Writers Guild of America Awards.

PREDICTION: Get Out

BEST ADAPTED SCREENPLAY

THOUGHTS: Copy and paste what I said about Original Screenplay and the whole consolation prize idea, but since only one of these films is nominated for Best Picture, I think that narrows it down quite a bit. If that happens and it's a statement, they could go with something other than Call Me By Your Name, but that's the one I think stands out. It's nice to see Logan get some love as the first comic book movie to get a serious nomination in a long time. I still don't get how Captain America: The Winter Soldier didn't earn this category nomination a few years ago and I'm bummed about that.

PREDICTION: Call Me By Your Name

BEST FILM EDITING

THOUGHTS: Good lord, I have no idea. I'm going to assume that if something was nominated for this and not much else, it must stand out, which means Baby Driver could get the win, even though that might just mean they liked it enough to nominate it. I don't think it will be I, Tonya or Three Billboards and I think I can even rule out The Shape of Water. I think this goes to Dunkirk even though I wasn't a fan of it having a split narrative and confusing timeline.

PREDICTION: Dunkirk

BEST VISUAL EFFECTS

THOUGHTS: Not only am I surprised Kong: Skull Island got on this list, I'm also shocked Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets didn't get nominated as I've heard that that is gorgeous. Maybe I'm bitter about the story told in Star Wars: The Last Jedi but I don't even want it to win this award and I'll argue that Leia floating through space was enough of a reason to ignore it even if the rest of the movie looked pretty great and just fell flat in other ways. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 should be skipped, I think, since it all feels a bit too fake. I haven't seen War for the Planet of the Apes, and I can imagine a world where they give this award to that in honor of all the CGI work they've done with the apes over the course of the three films, but I'm definitely leaning toward Blade Runner 2049 being the most obvious pick here.

PREDICTION: Blade Runner 2049

BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY

THOUGHTS: Cinematography isn't the same animal as Visual Effects, but they do have some parallels and it isn't crazy to think Blade Runner 2049 could win both. It's interesting, though, that that's the only one to get nominated for both awards, which helps its chances. Dunkirk wouldn't be too too shocking, nor would The Shape of Water.

PREDICTION: Blade Runner 2049

BEST PRODUCTION DESIGN

THOUGHTS: Blade Runner 2049 and The Shape of Water seem like bigger feats to me than Dunkirk as we've seen a million war films already. Beauty and the Beast...well, they had the animated film for reference. Darkest Hour isn't something that has as much work to need done on it than the first two I mentioned, so I think it's between them.

PREDICTION: The Shape of Water

BEST COSTUME DESIGN

THOUGHTS: I never seem to get this one right, so don't bet any money on me being correct. My gut instinct is to say Beauty and the Beast because they love their dresses, but they also love their period pieces and that's just going to screw with my mind and make me second guess myself. Victoria & Abdul seems like it would strike a lot of chords. Phantom Thread is literally about clothes, though...

PREDICTION: Phantom Thread

BEST MAKEUP AND HAIRSTYLING

THOUGHTS: Um....I have no idea what Victoria & Abdul is. Wonder doesn't strike me as the thing that would beat out Darkest Hour considering the buzz Gary Oldman has. If the makeup didn't work, he wouldn't be in such high contention for Best Actor.

PREDICTION: Darkest Hour

BEST ORIGINAL SCORE

THOUGHTS: Hans Zimmer tends to always do great work, but nothing stood out to me from Dunkirk, John Williams used to be amazing but is kind of phoning it in lately in my opinion, and I don't remember any of the score for Three Billboards even though I just got done watching it a few minutes before writing this. The Shape of Water didn't have anything astounding to me, but I do remember it resonating more than the rest.

PREDICTION: Alexandre Desplat for The Shape of Water

BEST ORIGINAL SONG

THOUGHTS: The only two that I've heard any buzz about are "Remember Me" from Coco and "This is Me" from The Greatest Showman. In the past, that's been a good indicator of which has the advantage going into the voting, but I've been surprised before. Given the choices, I think "This is Me" might win since that film isn't nominated for anything else, so that must stand out a bit. Plus, it is a musical after all, so it better do its job right. But, hell, I'm really tossing a coin here and I don't feel confident at all that it isn't just going to Coco.

PREDICTION: "This is Me" from The Greatest Showman

BEST SOUND EDITING

THOUGHTS: There's no difference whatsoever in the nominees. It's the same playing field of five films, and so often, whatever wins ends up taking both. At this point, I don't know why they don't just combine these categories into a Best Sound Design category, but someone who is more knowledgeable can explain that to me. Keep in mind that while I know there is a distinction to the job, I don't understand how Best Visual Effects can be combined instead of differentiating Best Practical Effects and Best CGI since those blend together, while Editing/Mixing is a blend. Anyway, Baby Driver, Blade Runner 2049 and Dunkirk to me have better chances than The Shape of Water and Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Since it's a war film and from what I've heard, the emphasis is on the battles and not on any story, I'm going to lean towards Dunkirk.

PREDICTION: Dunkirk

BEST SOUND MIXING

THOUGHTS: Look up.

PREDICTION: Dunkirk

BEST ANIMATED FEATURE FILM

THOUGHTS: Really? The Lego Batman Movie doesn't get a nomination??? Come on! The Boss Baby and Ferdinand look so stupid to me, I've literally never heard of The Breadwinner or Loving Vincent and that means Coco wins by default.

PREDICTION: Coco

THE REST OF THE CATEGORIES

Including:
Best Animated Short Film
Best Documentary Feature
Best Documentary Short Subject
Best Foreign Language Film
Best Live Action Short Film

THOUGHTS: These are the categories that I never know anything about. Everything listed is a completely foreign entity to me, so I typically go into the ceremony not having seen a single still image of the films. It's always a total shot in the dark as I basically either decide not to try to predict them at all, or I pick one at random. I have no idea which movies should have been nominated but weren't, which films should not have been nominated but were, or anything else like that. Essentially, I could put all of them up on a dart board and whatever I hit, those are my picks, and I'd probably do just as well as if I tried to guess blindly on my own merits. If you know anything about any of those films, feel free to enlighten me in the comments section so I can try to check them out if I can get access to any of them before the ceremony takes place.


Last year, we saw a distinct response to the #OscarsSoWhite situation and with this year's primary focus seemingly shifting to the LGBT community and women empowerment, I don't know how that's going to factor in on a grander scope. I assume that will be the focal point of the speeches, but as far as the awards themselves, I don't know if it will translate to wins and losses. If we see Lady Bird killing it, then we know it did, because holy shit, I shut that movie off at the 3:12 mark and didn't want to see a single second more as I felt like it would be wasting my time with pointless angst that I've already seen before. If we see Get Out sweeping, we know #OscarsSoWhite is still prevalent. Then again, maybe this is going to be one of those years where everything is so random because there aren't standout obvious choices for anything, so the people like myself who are trying to guess what other people are thinking have no ability to jump into their brains and guess correctly. I'm just glad Star Wars: The Last Jedi wasn't nominated for Best Picture as I clearly had my problems with it.

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight is the latest in the line of animated DC direct-to-video films. Is it worth the watch or it is something that should be skipped?

Batman: Gotham by Gaslight
Directed by Sam Liu
Written by James Krieg

STARRING:
Bruce Greenwood (Bruce Wayne / Batman), Jennifer Carpenter (Selina Kyle), Tara Strong (Marelene Mahoney), Kari Wuhrer (Barbara Gordon), Scott Patterson (James Gordon), Grey DeLisle (Sister Leslie), John DiMaggio (Chief Bullock), Anthony Head (Alfred Pennyworth), Yuri Lowenthal (Harvey Dent), Lincoln Melcher (Dickie), Bruce Timm (Arkham Radio Man), William Salyers (Hugo Strange), Chris Cox (Father Callahan), Bob Joles (Mayor Tolliver) and David Forseth (Cyrus Gold)

Here are some specific thoughts that ran through my mind during the course of the film as a stream of consciousness:

• Poison Ivy as a stripper gimmick? Nice touch. Writer-wise, not actual touch. I'll shut up now.
• The Robins as street hoods? Another nice touch, especially with Jason being the more violent of the three.
• That Ferris wheel is going to be the final act, right?
• Well if this isn't the most low-rent Batmobile ever....
• Mrs. Cooper? Harriet Cooper? Deep cut!
• This better not be a super long musical scene like in the last film.
• Get it, Bruce. Selina's a babe.
• I really hope this doesn't turn into a story where Bruce is a suspect.
• Sherlock Holmes, eh?
• I was going to guess Blockbuster, not Cyrus Gold, but that works. I'm also hoping one of the Blackgate guards is Lock-Up.
• Really? Gordon? I didn't see that coming.
• Oh...that was an abrupt ending. Why not tie things up and explain how Bruce can clear his name, or at least show that they build an orphanage? Nah, just end credits. Strange.

This was better overall than the Batman and Harley Quinn movie, but it wasn't anything super amazing. I liked the change of style if not just for something different, and I naturally dig all the references. The animation style wasn't bad, but far from my favorite of these films. I doubt this is going to be one of them that I watch again, but if you're looking for an hour to kill, go ahead.
