16 Oscar nods for Sinners?

Sinners is a stylish vampire film with embedded messages on the black American struggle over the decades and centuries, and the music in the film is powerful but a record 16 Oscar Nominations ? Is this The Academy using one film to hit diversity quotas across the board ? It's a good movie and refreshing if it, is indeed, the first horror film to do well in The Oscars since the equally stylish Pan's Labyrinth but its not a wow movie. It is, of course, better than last years big winner Anora. Would not surprise me if Donald Trump chose that one to win as its full of Russian hustlers. Trump must have had something to do with F1 making the final 10, Brad Pitt's cheesy grand prix movie.

Like I said on @AmbiePam 's post regarding this, doesn't sound like something I'd want to see. Now that I've read your post, I know that it's definitely not something I'd care to see.

@RasmaSandra I don't know a lot about recent movies, either.

@thedevilinme I have done Greta Garbo, Mae West, Marlene Dietrich, and, going way back, Lillian Gish, among my top favorites, Ingrid Bergman, and currently working on Hedy Lamarr.

Pan's Labyrinth was a good movie. We know that every contest in our day is manipulated. Most of the time it's not the best who wins.

I want to see it Bit it better live up to the hype. Anora was not good. Diversity quotas piss me off. Especially when they over compensate. Usually giving the impression that this country has a black majority when it comes to family life Also over representation of homosexuals and lesbains is annoying too.
