Completely Shut Out of Academy Awards
How annoying! A great film like this which is better than a lot of the other stuff nominated doesn't get any recognition
Bruges is like a fairytale...

Paramount is clearly to blame for this movie only getting one nomination. There's no reason for this movie not to get a Best Picture nomination. Over at Rotten Tomatoes, top critics have given it an average rating of 7.6, the same rating that Lion has, and a higher rating than Hacksaw Ridge (which has a 7.4). Brad Grey and the rest of the Joozians at Paramount clearly hate Silence; otherwise, they would've given this movie a much more aggressive Oscar campaign.
If I were Scorsese, I'd move The Irishman to another studio (like Warner Bros., perhaps, where Scorsese made The Departed, the movie that finally won him an Oscar). I'd be pretty f-ing stupid not to, given Paramount's way-too-shabby treatment of Silence.
All those who hate Katherine Heigl can eat s-t and die!!!
Not really. It wasn't that good.
