🎥 Re: Oscar predictions.
It’s important to note that Phoenician Scheme was not nominated for any awards. It really saddens me how Wes Anderson, one of our most positive & consistent artists, is taken for granted of late. Also, I have yet to see The Secret Agent, which may alter my predictions.
🎥 Oscar nominations for 2026 are out now. I released my favorite films of 2025 list a couple weeks ago, with a small addendum after seeing Sentimental Value. This is tough, but here is my wish and prediction list for some of the major categories:
Actor in a Leading Role:
Actor in a Supporting Role:
Actress in a Leading Role:
Actress in a Supporting Role:
Cinematography
Film Editing
Sound
Original Song
Directing:
Original Screenplay
Adapted Screenplay
Best Picture:
🎥 The folks at The Big Picture podcast argue in a recent episode that the movie of the century (so far) is The Social Network. I was skeptical at first, but the subject material alone makes it a good argument. I gotta ponder this one…
Watched: Sentimental Value 🎥
Well, this movie done messed up my whole “Best Of” films list for 2025. Easily taking the #3 or #4 spot. This film is true art. The best pure drama film I have seen in a long time. Watched on a flight to West Coast and it was still amazing.

🎥 Casey Neistat’s latest video about this young man with Cerebral Palsy running the NYC Marathon is so encouraging, heartwarming, and dignifying. It’s worth the 9-minute watch. Disclaimer: you may want to grab a tissue.

🎥🍿I wrote a brief analysis on Ari Aster’s Eddington:
Indeed, at its core, Eddington is a tale about communication—or, rather, miscommunication—of our desires, identities, and realities. The settings and personalities are held distant enough to let us laugh at the caricatures, but not held so far that we lose sight of our own reflections. Delightfully non-partisan, Aster manages to take the mick out of both the far right and far left in order to illuminate the subtle, but exponentially more influential, technological forces at play.

🎵🎥 Machine Gun Kelly having one of the best dance sequences in a music video in recent memory is so unexpected… but so enjoyable.
Shoutout also to Travis Barker of Blink-182 who is credited on the song. A fellow Inland Empire native who made it out and became a legend. 🤘
