’s last 35 Under 35 Movie Star Ranking and in that time we’ve *finally* got what feels like a new batch of bona fide stars. Here’s the new batch:

Young people want good movies. I genuinely believe this. They don’t want to be patronized with rehashed stories.
46% of opening night moviegoers for "Killers of the Flower Moon" were under 35 years old.

Chadwick Boseman always struck me as a logical successor to Robert Ryan and Robert Redford, an actor who projected decency, intelligence, and a wry sense of humor, without breaking a sweat. What an actor, what a profound loss.

One thing that distinguishes AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER from contemporary blockbusters is how difficult it is to “spoil.” There are no long-rumored reveals, no teases, or winking asides. It’s not about information shared—it’s about what’s shown. You have to SEE it.

I mean this with no malice: Why did Renee Zellweger win every single award this season? Bad movie, little-seen; she already has an Oscar; her speeches are strange; the movie says nothing about the world today. I've still not heard a compelling reason.

DRIVE MY CAR, a 3-hour Japanese slow-burn epic about Chekhov and grief, got four Oscar nominations. It's an amazing film, I was wrong about how this one would play out for months. The Academy is super different now than it was five years ago.

Kendall Roy's rap fandom is one of the cleverest things about SUCCESSION—an early 40s ambition monster with imposter syndrome utilizing the ultimate aspirational art form of the late 20th/21st century as a signifier of taste and 'hustle.' 1/

Denis Villeneuve and Sian Heder not being recognized for Best Director while their films won a combined 9 Oscars gives you a good sense of how things can shift when voters finally watch all the movies, think about them in context, and how that intersects with campaigning.

How to give an acceptance speech:
1. Dump on a bad administration
2. Thank the film's creator
3. Thank your co-star
4. Appreciate your good fortune
5. Quote the film's title
6. Dedicate the award to your kids
7. Be lucky enough to be the best-looking actor in several generations
