Parasite (2019), Academy Awards, for Best International Feature Film, and Best Original Screenplay. What are the Chances?
I hope south Korea would submit this movie as its entry for the category for Best International Feature Film (previously Best Foreign Language Film), I think it has a chance to secure the country’s first ever nomination and perhaps a win. In comparison with the previous winner - Roma which I found to be lackluster and boring, Parasite has an engrossing narrative shifting effortlessly between black humor and melancholy, with a marvelous ending that leaves you in awe. So what are the chances of the movie getting nominated?

Do you think 2001 should have won Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Art Direction, and Best Screenplay?
Do you think 2001 should have won Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Art Direction, and Best Screenplay?
I personally think it's a travesty it did not win any of these, kind of like Blade Runner losing Best Art Direction to Gandhi (?????????) or Raiders of the Lost Ark losing Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Score to Chariots of Fire.
I also think Kubrick should have won Best Director for the Shining. Best Cinematography (Steadicam) would have been deserved for the movie, too.
What do you think?
