We finally saw one of the most anticipated movies of last year, and we had some differing thoughts. The three hour Martin Scorsese epic tells the story of The Reign of Terror that occurred in Oklahoma in the early twentieth century. While we all agree it is visually a beautiful movie, we couldn't help but feel like we wanted to see this story from the point of view of the Osage.

We always love when we disagree on a movie so give this one a listen and tell us where you stand. Let us know!

Cozy vibes? Check! Banger soundtrack? Check! Cast with amazing chemistry? Check! Alexander Payne's quiet Christmas movie snuck up on us and stole our hearts. 

It is hard to deny this film its accolades when it made us feel so warm and fuzzy. We hope this movie is a great jumping off point for Dominic Sessa and leads to more Da'Vine Joy Randolph in everything everywhere all the time.

Hi Barbie! Who would have thought that a Barbie movie would be one of the best movies of the year and also Oscar Nominated? Greta Gerwig made sure that all of our preconceived notions on what a Barbie movie could be were completely wrong. She brought to life a moving story about what it means to be a woman today. Every word, performance, and detail was handled with such thought and care it is no surprise that it was nominated for Best Picture.

AND THE WINNER IS...a let down? We have had so much fun this season with some really great films. Films that we called perfect, modern classics, innovative, surprising; and it all led to one of the most predictable Best Picture Winners. Surprising to no one, this was not on the top of any of our rankings at the end of this season, but we can't say we didn't like it. Colin Firth gives a moving performance because he can do no wrong. Geoffrey Rush was a charming supporting actor that matched Firth toe to toe, and Tom Hooper wasn't as annoying as he could be. If this had been 2012's Best Picture Winner, this conversation might have been completely different.

Tell us your thoughts on the 2011 race over on Twitter and Instagram. We're taking a short break before we come back with our Conversations with Oscar series- where we dive into the current Oscar season and as always, give our thoughts!

Jennifer Lawrence is a household name today, but in 2010 she was a fresh faced new comer who scored an Oscar nomination right out of the gate. Jennifer Lawrence's skills shone in this dark, tense film. Director Debra Granik created an immersive haunting tale that launched the career of a future Hunger Games Winner.

Only a few episodes left in this season of Oscar Rewind. This week we're talking about True Grit. At least we mostly talk about True Grit. We get side tracked a lot in this one folks, so please try and keep up. We wouldn't say western is our favorite genre, but the Coen brothers made this one a hit for us. The cinematography by the genius that is Roger Deakins, and the beautiful, show stopping performance by Hailee Steinfeld had us glued to our screens!

We have watched our fair share of movies here at We Have Thoughts Incorporated. Many of them good, many of them not so good. We had a season of movies so mid we nearly lost our minds. It is very rare that we come across a perfect movie, but this season we did. Toy Story 3 has it all. It had us laughing, crying, scared, and thinking of yesteryear. Pixar came into our lives as children and continues to deliver some of our favorite movie going experiences today. Animation can deliver everything live action can and perhaps even more. Listen to us gush about our pals Woody and Buzz this week, and stay tuned for the last few episodes of this season. We couldn't be more excited!

One of the many reasons we started this podcast was to talk about great movies with our best friends and in this weeks episode, we get to do just that. The Social Network is everyone at the top of their game. Fincher's directing, Sorkin and his melodic script, and even Justin Timberlake pulls out a good performance. Each puzzle piece fit so well it created a modern classic. The Social Network will be talked about for generations to come. We're glad to be a tiny piece in the conversation.

Thirteen years ago might not seem like that long ago, but The Kids Are All Right’s progressiveness feels a bit out dated. Lisa Cholodenko’s intimate story about a family during a time a time of transition and upheaval is done well and with a soft touch and a stellar cast, however in 2023 it falls a bit flat for us.

We could go on and on and on about our love and admiration for Christopher Nolan’s storytelling, and we do. Inception is a film that will stand the test of time. The performances, the writing, the score, the cinematography are all top of their game. We have a feeling we will be talking about Nolan some more very soon.
