Honest Trailers | The Oscars 2023 (Best Picture Nominees) 

Glad to hear you're diversifying the films you watch!

@@filmtoppings there's quite a few blockbusters here though. Most people have seen top gun and avatar. Everyones raving about EEAAO and Banshees. So there's likely quite a few people have seen.

@@glendarjj3991 Yeah, a good portion of this year's crop of nominees aren't exactly obscure choices, Women Talking and (possibly) Triangle of Sadness are the only ones that I think aren't particularly well-known or talked about

Same, usually I go watch them all after the nominations come out cuz I haven’t seen or heard of them. But I had seen over half of them this year

Sorry for your loss.

I'll find out the next day anyway

Agreed!

Even then, it's just better watching the clips

Sticking Crash winning Best Picture in between the La La Land/Moonlight mixup and the slap was just a perfect editing choice

Cant believe is already been a year since Will Smith will-smithed Chris Rock

It's the stupidest movie ever made and after watching the EWW review I wish I'd forget it all but it's impossible to forget all the blsht they trew in that crap

@@Svol09 Go take a nap.

Well if you had a high enough iq to understand it then...

@@Svol09 Thinking that EWW represents any sort of legitimate criticism is your first error.

@@Darkwell it does for me.

What about FASCISM?

They already did a full trailer around last summer

And a Partridge in a Pear Tree

I laughed hard at that one. I saw the movie the other day and noted to my wife it had a strong 12 Angry Men vibe to it.

I don't get it.

@@JohnGardnerAlhadis It's a reference to a classic - 12 Angry Men.

This joke legitimately made me laugh out loud!

What about FASCISM?

He also knows nobody really read anymore so..

Spielberg is still the best and I loved his newest film too. I would love to see him win the Oscar for best director but if The Daniels win I'm glad they got to win because their movie is just so crazy and great all at once.

I was really upset that it didn't win more. Usually war films at least win for sound-- and its sound was leagues better than most. It's not a particularly faithful adaptation of the book, but it had the same violent anti-war spirit that I think is really necessary to see rn.

Yeah war movies are going the western movies route and are all becoming the same thing and boring. The last war movie I liked was Jojo rabbit because it was a unique take. All Quiet might have had been an amazing movie, but nobody wants to watch war movies anymore.

My guess it has something to do with Republicans and Democrats but I never remember which is the Donkey because I'm Canadian.

​@@crystalward1444that's because they're all donkeys

​@@crystalward1444The Democrats have the donkey.

I expected a clip of Gordon Ramsay said "YOU DONKEY!" On it.

There were two and only one of those was from a nominated movie. Any more examples?

Ditto

Same. Its gotten so pretentious I cannot stand it unless being lampooned

🎯

​@@cowel8734🤡

Whatever

It would feel a little strange if they didn't do a full honest trailer for that but if they did make full Honest Trailers for Top Gun and Avatar.

@@laurenconrad1799 kinda makes sense. Im obviously a fan but even I think Top Gun and A2 are much bigger comedic targets than EEAAO.

That’s gonna take forever

Been saying this for 3 months

Brilliant idea! But done literally, Edgar Wright style

What about FASCISM?

I was stun locked for about two seconds. Then I laughed so hard it actually hurt

...can you explain it to me please

@@afoolishfopdoodle3284 these kibitzers are all fascist trumper desancters

Latest season of The Boys gave that joke a little oomph for me

Agreed

Movies nominated in 2022 were bad. I did not get Everything Everywhere All at Once. Quan has given good speeches but Yeoh is very unlikeable. There were at least four movies nominated last year that are better than anything this year. Just hoping for a better year in 2023 for movies.

@@tonyg76 What didn’t you get, it was clearly about generational trauma, but was able to include other less serious element making it more enjoyable. I suggest you rewatch it, or if you didn’t like it, maybe it’s because you were blessed with a perfect home life and couldn’t relate to it in any way.

@@jammiedoughnut1126 Don't judge me or my life, you jerk. It was way too out there. I agree with the old farts in the academy that will not get it. Maybe the people who like it should be less defensive towards people that do not.

I haven’t seen that movie…yet. But I would love it if she won, because she deserves to and she’s a pretty rad lady.

Why does anyone care at all about the Oscar’s? If you like a movie then who the hell cares what anyone else says?

It def. feels like a massive tug-of-war between pretentiousness and movies people actually enjoy.

​@@LucasCarter2 it's more about recognition. Some people will be more likely to watch a movie if it wins many awards. That means that smaller indie projects get more recognition and love

I’m actually looking forward to this year’s ceremony. Especially to see wins for Naatu Naatu, Brendan Fraser, Sarah Polley, and what might be the coolest Best Picture winner since No Country for Old Men.

it's called desperation.

Yes, I actually chuckled at that.

What about FASCISM?

@Sketchy Getchey I find that a bit weird that it's a contender but even the praise and success I found it a bit odd.

Ever since they expanded the Best Picture category to ten nominees, they always include one or two blockbusters. They never win. They're never meant to. The Academy is just hoping it makes more people tune in, some slop thrown to the unwashed masses. If Top Gun actually wins (not impossible), something went horribly wrong with vote-splitting, and the Academy voters would be seething behind the scenes, probably trying again to push a "Best Popular Film" category to ghettoize like they did with Best Animated when Beauty and the Beast and Lion King threatened to actually win despite being the wrong kind of film. The Academy isn't meant to be representative of popular sentiments; them be very serious artists making most very serious art.

They like to prove they aren't out of touch by nominating something popular each year. Won't win though.

@@S3018146 Likely not.

I wasn’t surprised by the best picture nomination, but the best screenplay nom is utterly baffling.

Same

Why, is it bad? Because good movies don't make good honest trailers (Matrix is an exception).

​​​@@Jurgen123445 And yet nobody talks (nor sometimes cares) about that movie (The Matrix) anymore nowadays.

@@jeuryrabassa4724 And your point is?

@@Jurgen123445 That nobody seems to really remember those Matrix movies anymore. They're pretty much remember watching John Wick.

@@Jurgen123445 I liked the Logan honest trailer.

I was wondering, will there be an actual Everything Everywhere All At Once trailer? Feels a bit unfair to give it a short end of the stick if you also did Top Gun and Avatar.

But now we need one in full! And they’ll have to jump across different universes, with different Epic Voices!

@@benabramowitz18 they already did that in the spiderverse trailer

They did mentioned it in the honest trailer for multiverse of madness

Def insanely overrated.

One of the best in years imo

How’s 3/9 good?

@@jjfrenzy789 if you’re talking about avatar 2, eeaao, and maverick, I’m gonna beat you in front of your mother

@@TheReeelBradPitt And then I’ll sue you and you’ll go to prison for life!

@@jjfrenzy789 I’ll just beat have to beat your father then to pass time

Same.

That would be the coolest BP winner since No Country For Old Men.

EEAO was ABSOLUTELY the best film to come out of 2022 (fight me, Avatar fans) and that’s EXACTLY why it won’t win Best Picture Congrats, Fabelmans

@@mc-rn8ro Avatar was not that great. If that movie wins anything besides Special effects i will force David Cameron to give it back. 15 years time. A lot of money. But they spend like 15 minutes abnd 2 beers worth on the story and characters.

However I do think it will win because it's Oscars.

Yes! I'm actually kind of disappointed they haven't done an Honest Trailer for that movie yet.

@@jbvader721 They said they don't want to lampoon it cos it's a good movie, so they just bring it up in other honest trailers to attack other movies with (like their favorite target, Multiverse of Madness). Even here they just mentioned it cos they had to and even in that little bit they only had nice things to say about it.

Judd Hirsch has not played Spielberg's dad... He played Spielberg's uncle. Dad would be Paul Dano

@@devdeepganguly2627 True but close enough 😄

@@ScreenJunkie_VERSE lol

FOR REAL I HATE THIS SO MUCH. I'm emetophobic (lots of people are) and I don't see why this is so trendy. It's disgusting!! I hated it in Zombieland 2. I hated it in Knives Out. And I ESPECIALLY am never going to watch TOS because reviewers say IT'S 30 MINUTES OF JUST THAT. WTF JUST STOP IT ALREADY.🤬 why do directors think being gross is so "ARTSY".

I mean, it doesn't deserve the win. it's a good movie for what it is and a perfect sequel, but it's not particularly well written or acted.

​@@crankfastle8138 I would disagree. It's well written, it's just not overly ambitious with what it is about

I absolutely love Top Gun Maverick, but in a certain way I wouldn't be happy if it wins, because he would switch from "one of the best action movies of the decade" to "one of the worst best picture winners of the decade" and it doesn't deserve it, it's so good

ahh well, whether you thought top gun mav was worthy to win or not, my comment was more of a general sentiment of how academy views action movies, superhero movies, etc. (basically anything popular with the wider general audiences). Kinda like how on rotten tomatoes, the audience score are more important for me than critics scores.

@yongBane part of the problem is the few times these movies do get acknowledged like top gun, is that its a bit outclassed this year, or black panther which really didn't deserve it and got its nomination for other obvious reasons which undermine the movies real quality.

Big facts

I don't think so

@@MrDarcyProductions Nope. For The Fablemans. Like Judd over Paul? Come on

@@brandonmclendon5368 Except...is Paul Dano even a supporting role? I'd go with...nope. Especially not if Michelle Williams is leading, which I DO agree with. The real "OKAAAY" is Judd (all clip, no steak) over Seth (lots of steak, but just one clip).

IKR? Paul Dano did such a good job playing John Hodgman! /s

exactly, there is no hero trope, nothing. only desperation and death.

Agreed. I don't care about the other movies. But EEAAO is the one I watched 6 times in cinemas and which spoke to me on a deep level. Such a beautiful and funny and philosophically deep movie.

Gardbage overhyped flim

@@ladyreverie7027 I watched it 7 times over the year :-) I finally officially consider it my favorite movie. And I'm old. This pic is just so freaking filled with memorable moments. I don't even know why Spielberg was nominated for best director this year. Yes he's a legendary filmmaker... But his self-biopic barely does anything interesting. They can't bloody give him the award just for the funny camera angle in the final shot, can they...? Omg, they absolutely can and will... Even Spielberg thinks the Daniels should win everything I'm sure 😅

You can’t call it garbage without sound stupid

​@@smartwater598 you've got terrible taste man

"For me, the action is the juice."

It's way better than that.

Big year for pukes.

How about this. They get rid of puke entirely. People want to see a great movie and puke completely ruins the film. They should never have it again in future movies. My opinion.

​@@capedcrusaderreviews1192 A Jackass vehicle without puke would be like a night sky without stars. I wouldn't wanna live in that world.

Fr

Yes!!! That line was great. LOL

@Abyss in disguise What an incredibly true statement.

Wtf do either of those things have to fo with broke and woke? Do you know what words mean?

I ain't never heard of Triangle Of Madness or the Colin Farrell movie till now Also,Top Gun 2,Avatar 2 and Elvis WERE mainstream blockbusters

Rural South Dakota would like you to hold its beer.

@@carybeweary7209 did I say otherwise?

Confession I watched Triangle of Sadness and The Menu at the same time and then turned off Triangle after The Menu was over and felt okay about it.

Confession: time is valuable, and because that’s true I haven’t seen a single one of these movies. $200 million US dollars spent on something to keep you entertained for 2 hours and be immensely forgettable..? Nah, I’m good.

Nobody else has watched it

The Menu is the one that's definitely better than half of all nominees, it's really worth watching. Haven't seen Triangle yet

​@@borskavin6395 The Menu was great and didn't involve 20 minutes of barf. :-/

@@borskavin6395 Triangle of Sadness was very underwhelming. The first few scenes (the models, the couple arguing) are genuinely great, but the rest of the movie is an overlong slog that doesn’t have much to say.

Fableman

@@KingHiki Tar is far from oscarbait. At this point we gonna call every serious drama movie Oscar bait. I think Elvis and All quiet on the Western front are much more if an Oscar bait.

@@therealpotpol4027 tar is Oscar bait, not a single building collapsed on Blanchette, with generic adventure music 0/10 Should’ve handed the project to Disney

@@TheReeelBradPitt That makes the two of Us. I was genuinely underwelmed because If this was supposed to be a part of the BCU ( Blancett Cinematic universe ), why didn't Hela Show up in the mid Credit scene.

@@therealpotpol4027 wouldn‘t say all quiet on the western front is oscarbait, since very few expected a german production to even det nominated

Glad I'm not the only one who recognized that theme.

... You... seems to have took the joke.. too seriously..

Same ahahaa

That's why I love it so much, Lydia's decline should be studied for ages. Cate did a phenomenal job

Amazing indeed! From the very beginning you can notice very subtle signs of Lydia's bottled up anxiety, something that keeps getting worse and worse until the end. And the movie is filled with details that add up to the whole story (def worth a rewatch). Plus, Cate Blanchett's performance! One for the ages for sure!

What was he cooking

Good on ya for not pointing out where it was in the video, because I did NOT catch it

His boredom at describing the film is exactly how I felt about it. It’s the movie that made me realize I’m burned out on war films.

In this epic prequel to WWII... Genuinely, I have never heard a better honest trailer joke

@@erakfishfishfish A war movie is a waste of a historical movie that we have never seen before that could exist and a cool action movie that could launch a career.

@@goldengrill769 It was completely anti-war. Marvel incels just don't get the point.

@@shmooveyea Everyone knows it's an anti-war film. It's a classic so its main theme has been repeated ad nauseam so much even those who didn't get that from watching it know it. We're just tired of it cos it's cliched by this point. Much like your tired old incel insult, they're usually derivative and unoriginal and boring. Ironically, much like the Marvel films you're attacking.

@@kevinl3875 yes

@Kevin L last year I found people saying no way home deserved a best picture nomination, they seriously can’t hear themselves?

BG3 Honest Game Trailer in September?
