16 nominations for one film is insane! "Sinners" must be something special. The Oscars feel a bit distant sometimes, but when a movie creates this much buzz, it makes me want to watch it.

While I enjoy the glamour, I respectfully feel the Oscars often overlook incredible cinema from Asia, including India. We have stories and performances here that deserve that kind of platform too.

So happy for the first-time nominees! That moment must be surreal. Also, Conan O'Brien hosting? That should be fun and less formal. Hope the ceremony is more engaging this year.

DiCaprio's sixth nomination! The man is a legend. It's nice to have this luncheon before the big night, must ease the nerves a bit for the newcomers. Best of luck to all!

Will try to catch the stream on Hulu. The timing is usually very late for us in India, but it's worth staying up for the fashion and the speeches! Fingers crossed for the underdogs.
