With less than an hour to go, here are my final predictions for the 98th Academy Awards. A bit rough (needs grammar checks), but it’s now time to just watch this thing. Enjoy the show, y’all! #Oscars @seattlecritics @Warm1069 warm1069.com/preview-98th-a…

TV truly being alive and well, as this masterpiece readies the last corner. Not ready for a bittersweet end here. 🥹🥹🥹 #Hacks

When Sandra Huller started singing in project Hail Mary

Ryan Gosling is a man on a mission, an amnesiac with a tight skillset and a new best friend, in #ProjectHailMary. A firm reminder why optimistic sci-fi still matters; indeed, a thing of beauty. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 | @seattlecritics @Warm1069 warm1069.com/review-project…

Ryan Gosling popped in before the showing of Project Hail Mary that @JackKennedy and I are at. @ProjBigScreen

With how much stress has been slung about my way, it is immediately comforting how NTBTSTM is entering my “comfort movie” list on second viewing… hard to explain why, its oddball humor would probably say otherwise. Heartwarming sense of friendship gives it the upper hand.

Oppenheimer/Anora/One Battle After Another is an unusually strong run of Best Picture winners, three major American films in their own way. We’re due for a historically embarrassing winner next year. Brace yourselves.

I was very much a fool to trust the late hype that SAG provided… this is how you learn the hard way. That said, couldn’t be happier with this result, favorite film of 2025 properly immortalized. Please don’t let the merger come to pass. #Oscars

Right from the moment she appeared on screen, the award was hers. So well fought for in her career leading up, going back to Wild Rose. Couldn’t be prouder. #Oscars

Anchor of his film, alongside Ryan. A valiant win for the film, for its studio. Wagner, it’ll be yours next time. #Oscars

Another hard-earned victory. All for Adam. #Oscars

Finally, the honmoon is sealed until… 2029, probably? Solid final bow for HUNTR/X. #Oscars

OK… for serious, now. What the hell? Brazil could’ve used more of that forward momentum… one of these days, I’ll give both TSA and SV another chance under neutral circumstances, and TSA will probably still come out on top. #Oscars

NO A LA CUERRA Wear it determinably, Javier. #Oscars

OK, so this was an upset in the least likely of places. Hard to complain, when the visuals were just so impeccable on this one from start to finish. #Oscars

The flow and knitting pattern Jurgensen applied to this tale was truly second to none; no complaints, glad I made this late pivot. #Oscars

“Cars go vroom” will always be a lock. #Oscars

Three times in ten years. How is that not a genius streak in the making? #Oscars

Not a bad pick, it’s a fair 🖕to those who oppose free expression in videography. Still would’ve loved the dark poeticness of The Perfect Neighbor here. #Oscars

3-for-3 on the shorts this year… that may not’ve ever happened before. #Oscars

I do not mind Kimmel, for the record. But we know it’s certainly for the better you don’t stretch him too thin. #Oscars
