my picks for tonight’s 91st Academy Awards (the Oscars for 2018’s films) (winners indicated)
I correctly guessed 9 out of the 24 categories, which is appalling. I shall be in my corner reprimanding myself.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse movie review: animation gets reanimated
Has a verve rare in big-budget movies at the moment. Fun and fresh and legitimately engages with its source material on the levels of story, visuals, and mythology all at once. It feels like discovering storytelling anew.
22 Jump Street movie review: an advanced course in the sequel
Funnier even than the first film, nonstop self-deprecation that doles out well-deserved smacks to about 817 Hollywood things that desperately deserve it.
