I guarantee you "smokes" or "cow" are not where I was going with this

A β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… review of The Voice of Hind Rajab (2025) An absolute masterpiece of tension, heartbreak, and, ultimately, rage. Expertly crafted, emotionally gutting. [Viewed for #HashtagOscars 2025]

1. a de facto Best Ensemble award that'll match Best Picture every time
2. a de facto consolation prize, given as Best Ensemble in a "we like you, but you're not getting the top slot" way (similar to Screenplay wins at times)
3. an award based on actual casting merit no I'm just kidding it's 1 or 2

A β˜…β˜…β˜…Β½ review of Kokuho (2025) That's a lot of movie. A two-hour masterpiece lost in a three-hour epic. Engaging, with some terrific performances, but sluggish in enough spots to keep it from being great. But man, is it gorgeous to...

Screen cap from the intro to the television show Twin Peaks. Pictured is a road with a sign next to it that says "Welcome to Twin Peaks population 51,201." In front of this are the words "Executive Producer DICK WOLF".
