by Morban Stone Recently, I watched the 95th Academy Awards and I was shaken to my core at what was constituted as “good enough” to be nominated. In what world are we nominating Top Gun: Maverick for best picture, and not the objectively best movie of 2022: Morbius ? I sat through the Oscars with a pit in my stomach, hoping fruitlessly that maybe someone on that stage would come to their senses and mention the ways in which Morbius had been snubbed. Perhaps the Daniels would mention the ways in which Morbius influenced the making of Everything Everywhere All At Once during one of their many awards acceptance speeches. But I waited, and I waited, and nobody cared. There was no surprise Morbius performance. Nobody at the 95th Academy Awards cared, and I’ve come to the conclusion that none of them actually care about cinema. So I’ve taken it upon myself to right some wrongs, and justify why Morbius should have received every nomination, if not every award, at this year’s Oscars.
