Which Oscar nominee will enlightened movie fans be rooting against? kn8 breaks down the contenders

Photo: From left: Courtesy of Warner Bros., Courtesy of Universal Pictures, Courtesy of Columbia Pictures The Academy Award nominations are out, and the race is on to determine this year’s Oscar villain: the film it becomes the duty of every enlightened movie fan to root against.

1. The film usually debuts to much acclaim at one of the fall festivals, and is immediately pegged by awards-watchers as a major Best Picture contender. 4. Finally, the group dynamics of Twitter come into play. When high-status social media users begin dunking on a potential villain, the film is marked: It becomes an easy target for those who would like to boost their progressive bona fides, and thus become high-status social media users themselves. This creates a self-perpetuating cycle that lasts all the way until Oscar night.

9. Parasite Also nominated for: Directing, Original Screenplay, International Film, and 2 technical categories. Not Gonna Win, So Not Worth Hating In another universe, these could have been the movies everyone spent the fall making fun of. But neither has quite taken off as a serious Best Picture contender, so there’s not really any point.

Most Oscar Villainous Come Globes night, you may find it fruitful to pre-draft some Tweets about how each of these movies was the worst film of 2019.
