for real! I went to the theater this past weekend to watch them all. The Boy... was terrible. I could stand the dialogue. So so so unbelievable. Towards the end the people in the audience actually starting laughing and screaming out with each bit of dialogue, it was that bad. I really really really hope it doesn't win. I was actually starting to feel bad for the film, but now reading how people think it's going to win, I don't feel that way any longer.

For me, my vote is for The Ice Merchants or My Year of Dicks. Both had great visuals that i thought were a bit unexpected, so that was nice. In terms of emotions though, Ice Merchants tops that list.

Wait it’s hilarious because that’s how our theater reacted too. After the horse goes “did you know I can fly” the room burst out laughing

I could not agree more; only diff for me the audience was way too polite, I didn't want to be the first to scream, lol.

All the other pieces are good, but there's some magic to the Ice Merchants that's very rare.

Same experience at the theater last night! My first reaction was "...are they actually finding this funny/good...? I'm dying inside, I hate this!" but soon after noticed how it was timed with each stupid development. What a shit sandwich. "Wot's the bravest thing yew've eva done 🥺??"
