This week, we learned the answer to the question, “Did anyone even see Ford v Ferrari?” Apparently, the dads of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences did as it was one of the nine films to pick up a Best Picture nomination for this year’s Academy Awards. What a weird-ass line-up we got this year. J.Lo and the Sandman were snubbed, The King of Comedy (oh, sorry, they’re calling it Joker now) racked up the most nominations, and this year’s war movie was apparently very different from every other year’s war movie and therefore totally needed. Between screaming “Justice for Greta” and arguing about bagels, Twitter was pretty damn funny this week.
there’s going to be a point in my life where my son looks up at me and thinks “gee, my mom knows EVERYTHING!” and then he’ll get to 6th grade math class… and i’ll say “well, kid, this is where we part ways.”
