[QUOTE="Ransom Stoddard, post: 1454574, member: 10336"] We've seen [I]Green Book [/I]before, whether it's [I]Driving Miss Daisy[/I] or [I]The Defiant Ones[/I] or [I]The Help [/I]or any other "white savior" movie. It was a well acted representation of a tried-and-true story, but what bugs me the most was that it wasn't a remotely visually interesting movie. I'd never try to lump one of the Farrelly brothers into auteur category, but this thing was so unnecessarily bland it made my eyes hurt. IMO it should've been [I]Roma [/I]by a landslide, but the industries fears of Netflix shut that down. Shoot, [I]The Ballad of Buster Scruggs[/I] didn't even get a nomination. [/QUOTE]
