Overjoyed for Ke Huy Quan and gutted Stephanie Hsu didn't win.

Long-winded award Anon back and add me to the chorus of disagreeing with Best Supporting Actress Win. Back then when I ranked them, JLC was at or near the bottom. Angela Bassett and Stephanie Hsu being my top two with Kerry Condon coming in third. To be fair, by the time the ceremony aired I'd kinda forgotten about Hong Chau's performance in The Whale and that was my fault at the time and not hers.
Rotten has Pain Hustlers at about 25-27% as was mentioned, but that is with critics with the movie so fresh in theaters. I got curious and went to The Gray Man on their site for fun since it's now been out for ages. Its critic rating is at 45% but its viewer rating is at 90%--and I can easily see that. It's an action movie and it has some issues but those issues didn't completely spoil it for me. I wouldn't rate it a great movie, but it's not bad. PH on the other hand is going to be swimming uphill especially since it isn't in that higher volume action category. It wouldn't surprise me at all if you simply applied a similar percentage rate to PH as The Gray Man and came out with around 50% approval. That sounds high to me, but the two stars are popular. But a lower approval is what I'd bet on--more like the metacritic of 45/100 or even a 40% approval on RT.
*I get a little too in the weeds on stuff like this, it's my policy wonk nature so apologies in advance.
Thanks!
I think I’ll forever be frustrated with Angela Bassett and Stephanie Hsu not winning supporting last year. Both of them truly deserved it. JLC really worked that nepo baby status the last few weeks of Oscar voting and that’s what pulled her ahead in the end. She was also at the bottom of my personal list as well 🦎
