But you know now they're 748 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 2: just like little taxes now that people can collect, and. 749 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know they take into account before they make 750 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 1: the decision.

Is a comedy. 759 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 1: I don't know if people saw that one, but it is. 760 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 3: I haven't seen it. 761 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 2: That movie is about a woman who's gonna play like 762 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 2: a Mary kay Laturno type character. 763 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: Yes, and it's selling mary Kayla Turner around to like 764 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:56,160 Speaker 1: research research, that's a comedy. That's a comedy, baby. 765 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 2: You know well, I mean I say that like as 766 00:40:58,120 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 2: if I don't understand what's going on. They do that 767 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 2: because the studio cynically put it. They they sent it 768 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 2: for consideration as a comedy because they build the dramatic 769 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,720 Speaker 2: categories too congested. So that's why The Martian was one. 770 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 2: It's just a dumb hack to try and get a 771 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 2: fucking award. The Martian is fucking mel Brooks compared to 772 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 2: The Spider. 773 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:19,120 Speaker 1: I've seen them both. 774 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, is there anything remotely comedic about it? 775 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: I mean it's like it's darkly like some of the 776 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: takes could be seen as darkly comedic. It's like they 777 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 1: have these super melodramatic musical cues that I think are 778 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:42,919 Speaker 1: like definitely ironic. It's it's a really good I thought, 779 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 1: but in a way that is like tragic and that 780 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:53,120 Speaker 1: not Yeah, it's just definitely shines a light under some rocks. 781 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:56,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's just it's just a way to sneak 782 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 1: nominees into a category that might be less competitive, but 783 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 1: it also has to piss off like the filmmakers to 784 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: be like, yeah, and Natalie Portman, your performance was. 785 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,760 Speaker 3: Hilarious, Thank you so much. 786 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, going up against the all the. 787 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 2: I studied a lot of vaudeville, you know, I really 788 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 2: wanted to nail the subtleties of it. 789 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. There's two new categories, one for uh stand up Performances, 790 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: which seems to be an award for stand up comedians 791 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,600 Speaker 1: who put out specials that are like late in their 792 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 1: career and below their normal standards. Yep, it's like just like, 793 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: I guess the biggest names who put out specials this year, 794 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 1: they didn't even give it to Like Mulaney didn't get nominated, nominated, 795 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: but like Sarah Silverman, Chris Rock, uh, you know, all 796 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: the big Yeah. 797 00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,839 Speaker 2: I don't look, I'm not I'm gonna cast aspersions here. 798 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 2: I don't think the Hollywood Forum press is equipped to 799 00:42:55,760 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 2: actually determine what is good stand up comedy. Yeah, yeah, 800 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 2: you may have a bit of insight to it. 801 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: The other new category is one we've speculated in the past, 802 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 1: or it feels like they're going for a thing that 803 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,439 Speaker 1: we've speculated the past, Like I suggest that having one 804 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:15,400 Speaker 1: category for best film and one category for best movie, right, 805 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 1: and you know, maybe something could be both, but you 806 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: know that that would be some of the conversations. But 807 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,919 Speaker 1: basically things that are like, you know, a great work 808 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:30,359 Speaker 1: of art versus things that are just like a good 809 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:35,839 Speaker 1: time at the movies successfully like executed. They seem to 810 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: kind of do this. They called it a cinematic and 811 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: box office achievement, but it it's weird. It just seems 812 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:48,160 Speaker 1: like they like, right now, it's just an industry award 813 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:52,600 Speaker 1: based on who donated the most, Like Guardians of the 814 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:56,680 Speaker 1: Galaxy Volume three is in there, john Wick WI chapter four. 815 00:43:57,160 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 1: I don't know.
