Oscar Nominations 2023

The good news is that Oppenheimer has been winning every Best Picture award so far so the odds of another insane Oscar debacle like last year's disaster "Everything Everywhere All At Once" happening again this year is highly unlikely. "Barbie" and the horrendous "Poor Things" are nominated for best picture, rather than "Air", which was released in April. This is downright ridiculous, but very typical of the insane voting for the Oscars in recent years. In my opinion, Air is by far the best picture this year. Emma Stone will most likely win best actress for the terrible Poor Things, because she has won most of the previous Best Actress awards. Unfortunately, this means that Annette Benning or Lily Gladstone will not win and they are far more deserving and are in good movies, not the mess that Poor Things is. Life is unfair, especially when it comes to winning awards.
