I don't have any specific movie genre I like most and it all depends on my mood, but I always enjoyed watching good science fiction movies, mysteries, history and thrillers... also anything based on real events.

"Problem" with the movies that are nominated for Best Picture is that they are mostly filled with drama/romance kind of movies, while genres like thrillers or sci-fi are kinda neglected, especially when it comes to award itself. For example, sci-fi movie never won a Best Picture Oscar, and arguably the best sci-fi movie ever wasn't even nominated in that category. What I wanted to say is that unless you are fan of drama/romance kind of movies, you won't find many you like among the nominees. Tough luck that you didn't like Dune, which is one of the best movies I saw last year. I just regret that I haven't seen it in the cinema, even though I have a solid system at home.

What I don't like is most modern movies that are are just copy-paste or remakes of good old movies.

Not necessarily. If you mainly watch mainstream Hollywood movies that might be the case, but good movies are being made all over the world and its never been easier to get whatever you want. I could only dream of having this kind of access 20-25 years ago.

Did you watch this latest short video - Welcome to Liberland, the crypto-friendly micronation?
I think this is made by ledger team (I am not not their fan) ... but it would be interesting to make a short road trip as it's not located in some distant location Wink

Main reserve currency of Liberland is Bitcoin, but you can use any currency you want:

Haven't seen this before, but I watched it earlier today, thanks for sharing. Its been quite a while since last time I heard about Liberland. I remember there was a lot of talk about it back in 2015 (IIRC) when it all started, but then people kinda stopped talking about it.

Regarding Best Picture nominated movies, saw Coda tonight. It's a decent feel-good kinda of movie but not something that is worthy of an Oscar, at least not in that category.
