    I don't get why people keep placing Beasts so high. Well, I do. It's super popular here. But yeah.

    It's actually not that popular here? Most thought it was okay/overrated or outright hated it

    It's getting placed so high because it's popular everywhere. That's how you usually do this. Look at the facts and that make a prediction, not just go by on what's happening in your head.

    Also, we get it, you're no predicting BOTSW anywhere. Is it really necessary to mention it every other day?

    I'm tired of hearing this same, stupid fucking argument from you. You're the ONLY one who thinks this so unless you want to make your own forum in which you are the only poster and mod please try and take in realities that are not just your own.

    Really? When I was reading the thread in Film Reviews here, people were fucking ecstatic about it. But I guess I could be wrong. I'll go back later and take a look at the thread. I've been assuming bias here, but I could be misperceiving things.

    Well you're bias against it so who are you to call out it's lovers? Get over yourself.

    Beasts does have a lot of fans here, but it does seem like for long stretches they get drowned out by the Wallis-hating cadre and their obnoxiousness.

    I don't hate Wallis, I'm just very shouty about my opinion that other actresses have done better work this year and I will be pretty miffed if Wallis breezes past these amazing women because she's a cute kid. And that Beasts is a second-rate Malick homage. UGH.

    But this has no place in your predictions (or prediction threads, for the most part). You talk about personal bias affecting judgment, but I think you're one of the worst offenders in this regard. I may not prefer her either, but I also realize that she and her film are firmly in the race. Unfortunately, it doesn't matter what anyone else argues because you hardly ever listen to reason.

    It's everyone else's choice to get pissed off at me instead of either laughing at me or ignoring me. I just do what I do.

    you're not the only anti-Beasts/Wallis person on this board -- in fact, there are some who hate both much more than you -- but you're the only one who brings it up with such alarming frequency. That's what people (see Erik's post) are talking about, not your feelings toward the film or even it's awards chances. It's the frequency with which you post about it.

    Yes, and this is working out so well for you.

    No one really gets pissed off because no one really takes you seriously.

    If you're well aware that you contribute jack shit to the conversation here why the fuck do you still hang around?
