🎬 The Perfect Neighbor 🏆 1 📺 Netflix 📅 7 February 2026 7/10 Presented mostly through body worn video, this depicts a killing in relation to Florida's "Stand Your Ground" laws.

🎬 Sentimental Value 🇳🇴 🏆 9 📍 Genesis Cinema 📅 5 February 2026 8/10 Very much an in-movie about the movie business, it's well written and the performances are brilliant, especially from Renate Reinsve and Stellar Skarsgård

Big up to the volunteers at @davidleancinema.bsky.social in Croydon Town Hall. First visit and surely won't be the last!

🎬 One Battle After Another 🏆 13 📍 Prince Charles Cinema 📅 3 February 2026 9/10 packed with action and funny, there are great performances across the cast. The climatic sequence is just brilliant. Sean Penn was phenomenal

🎬 Avatar: Fire and Ash 🏆2 📍 Odeon Greenwich 📅 2 February 2026 6/10 Worthy of the nomination for effects, but these films are becoming formulaic and not really adding anything new.

🎬The Voice of Hind Rajab 🇹🇳 🏆1 📍Curzon Bloomsbury 📅30 January 2026 9/10 a difficult watch juxtaposing the dramatisation of the Red Crescent call centre in Ramadhan w/ the real voice of a 6 year old girl under siege in Gaza. Often gets missed in mainstream media are the small stories with big impact

🎬 Marty Supreme 🏆9 📍 Cineworld Bexleyheath 📅 29 January 2026 with @sakuratoffee.bsky.social 9/10 a brilliantly constructed film. The choice of an 80s soundtrack to a 50s film is bold. Surprised a nomination wasn't in order for Odessa A'zion who was, um, supreme...

🎬 Hamnet 🏆 9 📍 Vue Eltham 📅 27 January 2026 9/10 Can't find much wrong with this film. Brilliant acting, direction, sets, script and set well in Shakespeare's world. Jessie Buckley is brilliant.

🎬 Song Sung Blue 🏆 1 📍Vue Romford 📅 26 January 2026 8/10 if I wasn't a Neil Diamond fan, I'd probably give it a 7! A great performance from Kate Hudson opposite Hugh Jackman and a good supporting cast. A bit of a jukebox musical but can't complain...

🎬 Elio 🏆 1 📺 Disney+ 📅 25 January 2026 6/10 Watchable, but not one of Pixar's greats. Animation is good and visuals are quirky but the story didn't grip me.

🎬 Zootopia 2 (aka Zootropolis 2) 🏆 1 📍Odeon, Greenwich 📅 25 January 2026 8/10 Like the first one, this is exceptionally funny with great voice acting.

🎬 KPop Demon Hunters 🏆 2 📺 Netflix 📅 23 January 2026 7/10 Not being a tween, I don't think I'm the primary demographic for this! The animation though is superb - Sony Animation Studios following up the Spider-Verse movies well here. Golden is a proper banger too...

🎬 Frankenstein 🏆 9 📺 Netflix 📅 21 December 2025 8/10 Guillermo del Toro proves that he's a visionary in quirky horror. This should win a lot of technical awards like Costume, Cinematography and Production Design

🎬 F1 🏆 4 📺 Apple TV 📅 12 December 2025 7/10 Exciting and technically brilliant in both visuals and sound, but shouldn't be in the Best Picture category.

🎬 Sinners 🏆 16 📍Vue Eltham 📅 4 May 2025 8/10 Stylish and brutal, but I'm surprised by the amount of awards it's up for.

So, I'm doing the #OscarNomWatchathon again where I try to watch every nominated film of the 98th Academy Awards. There are 35 features and 15 shorts to watch before the ceremony on 5 March. I've seen 3 already...

The Housemaid (2025) Dir: Paul Feig Castle Cinema, Sidcup w/ @sakuratoffee.bsky.social First movie of the year! 7/10 Quirky & dark psychological thriller taking many twists and turns. Voiceovers were a bit unnecessary I thought, but kept the interest throughout.

@futbologyapp.bsky.social final stats of 2025 and I've been to exactly the same amount of matches as last year. Almost the same amount of goals

Absolutely delighted for @gintszilbalodis.bsky.social for this. It was such a competitive field this year again. Was lucky enough to catch this with a Q&A in London last month. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/ma...

🎥 A Different Man 📺 Amazon Prime 📅 2 Mar '25 🏅Makeup & Hairstyling 6/10 A bizarre story that tailed off into the surreal at the end. Good prosthetics for Sebastian Stan's character worthy of the nomination. #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ Porcelain War 📺 BIFF+ 📅 1 Mar '25 🏅Documentary Feature 8/10 Shows how artists and other civilians have had to adapt to fight in the war in Ukraine. #OscarNomWatchathon

📅1 Mar'25 🏅Short Docs INCIDENT: 8/10 chaos of police shootings INSTRUMENTS OF A BEATING HEART: 8/10 Adorable THE ONLY GIRL IN THE ORCHESTRA: 7/10 All about that bass I AM READY, WARDEN: 9/10 Capital punishment from all sides DEATH BY NUMBERS: 9/10: Mass shooting trial #OscarNomWatchathon

I hope everyone is hapusing their gŵyls today 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

One things for sure after Trumps pathetic performance, the peepee tape is VERY REAL.....

📽️ The Six Triple Eight 📺 Netflix 📅 27 Feb '25 🏅 Original Song: The Journey 6/10 Although not the best produced movie, it does tell the story of a remarkable unit in WW2. The nominated song plays well over the end of the film and the real-life women in the present day. #OscarNomWatchathon

Isn't this the same EHCR that Badenoch and Farage want to leave? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

📽️ Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes 📺 Disney+ 📅 26 Feb '25 🏅 Visual Effects 6/10 as usual with these, the CGI-created apes are wondrous, but this is not the strongest in the franchise and misses Caesar. #OscarNomWatchathon

@apiln.bsky.social Angry legs in local newspapers? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Lovely evening put on by @londonbreeze.bsky.social at @riversidelondon.bsky.social showcasing short films

📽️ Inside Out 2 📺 Disney+ 📅 16 Feb '25 🏅 Animated Feature 7/10 although it has its moments, it's not as good as the original #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ No Other Land 📍 Curzon Bloomsbury 📅 16 Feb '25 🏅 Documentary Feature 8/10 Up-close look from within the West Bank at forced evictions and demolitions of normal villagers.

📽️ I'm Still Here 📍 BFI Southbank 📅 15 Feb '25 🏅 Best Picture 🏅 International Feature 🇧🇷 🏅 Actress - Fernanda Torres 9/10 Torres puts in a worthy performance of an incredible woman. The brutality of the forced disappearances and torture in 1970s Brazil is shocking. #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ Memoir of a Snail 📍 BFI Southbank 📅 15 Feb '25 🏅 Animated Feature 8/10 Funny and sad in equal measures. It's delightfully animated. #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ Black Box Diaries 📍 Curzon Bloomsbury 📅 14 Feb '25 🏅 Documentary Feature 8/10 A determined journalist/survivor tears apart the Japanese legal system and wider society exposing the ineffectiveness at prosecuting rape. #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ Seed of the Sacred Fig 📍 The Garden Cinema, Holborn 📅13 Feb '25 🏅 International Feature 8/10 Interspersed with real footage of the 2022 Iranian protests against the death of Mahsa Amini and compulsory hijab, the film takes a turn into dark paranoia in the final act. #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️Elton John: Never Too Late 📺Disney+ 📅12 Feb '25 🏅Orig Song 7/10 interesting documentary about Elton's early career juxtaposed against his farewell concert at Dodgers Stadium where he also played in 1975. The nominated song, while decent, plays over the credits & seems artificial #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️A Complete Unknown 📍 Vue Eltham 📅10 Feb '25 🏅Best Picture 🏅Director - James Mangold 🏅Actor - Timothée Chalamet 🏅Sup Actor - Edward Norton 🏅Sup Actress - Monica Barbaro 🏅Adapted Screenplay 🏅Sound 🏅Costume Design 7/10 Well-acted movie exploring Bob Dylan and his move to electric #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat 📍 Institute of Contemporary Arts, Westminster 📅 8 Feb '25 🏅 Best Documentary Feature 8/10 An interesting look at 'Jazz Diplomacy' during the Cold War and the rise of the Non-Aligned Movement in 1960 with a specific scope around DR Congo. #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ Wicked 📍Cineworld Wood Green 📅7 Feb '25 🏅Best Picture 🏅Actress - Cynthia Erivo 🏅Sup Actress - Ariana Grande 🏅Costume Design 🏅Editing 🏅Makeup & Hairstyling 🏅Production Design 🏅Orig Score 🏅Sound 🏅Visual Effects 6/10 Well made (and sung), but too long and not my type of film #OscarNomWatchathon

📽️ Anora 📍Prince Charles Cinema 📅6 Feb '25 🏅Best Picture 🏅Director - Sean Baker 🏅Actress - Mikey Madison 🏅Sup Actor - Yura Borisov 🏅Orig Screenplay 🏅Editing 9/10 - hated the trailer when I saw it but was hugely impressed by its humour and the performances by Borisov and Madison #OscarNomWatchathon
