  1. I think won't get the host quota here since they don't have a pair ranked on the pairs world ranking list. It will go to next best not qualified nation on that ranking, which is .
  2. Adam Siao Him Fa with a medal after placing 19th in SP To complete the upset, Shoma Uno out of the podium...
  3. Probably just a sign of the times, people don't interact as much as they used to. The same happened with last year's Totallympics Awards, which had much fewer comments compared to the previous edition.
  4. Congrats to , my favourite song here. Would also love to see winning the Totallympics Eurovision Contest, just for a bit of a change...
  5. I see some progress in the newer generations. Some younger athletes who are gay are just living their lives freely and I feel there isn't so much of a pressure to came out anymore. But of course each case is different and for most of them the possibility of living their truth comes only after they retire from the sport.
  6. Yeah. For Brazil I can only think of Arthur Nory (Gymnastics) and Douglas Souza (Volleyball) when considering active athletes who participated in the Olympics (both Rio 2016 medalists). And I don't think they will be in Paris (Nory has a slim chance of being selected, but Douglas doesn't want to play for the NT anymore). Maique (Volleyball) might join them but probably won't be on the team. There's also a few that are pretty much "out" on social media but have never officially spoken about it.
  7. Joana Neves (Swimming), winner of 5 Paralympic Games medals.
  8. What a sad way to start this thread. I don't want to state the obvious, but it's truly unfortunate that things like this still happen. That crowd was despicable and the other team should take some accountability.
  9. won both Paralympic races (PR1M1x and PR3Mix2x) and will have to selected one of the boats. The other quota will go to or . Unfortunately I think that the PR1W1x event wasn't held, probably due to a lack of participants.
  10. Yeah, it was nice that except for this one they voted for watchable shorts in the other categories. Although it was totally expected, I despise the screenplay win for 'American Fiction'. For me it was the worst of the category.
  11. Yeah, since they don't have the guts to award something like 'Anatomy of a Fall' or 'Past Lives', it was a good choice. Something noticeable is that they awarded the same winners of BAFTA in ALL categories except Visual Effects ('Godzilla' wasn't nominated there). Predicted 17/23 but I wish I had paide more attention to them.
  12. Ryan Gosling singing "I'm Just Ken" was by far the best moment of the night
  13. As @Olympian1010 reminded us, they'll nominate any song Diane Warren writes. In the past decade she has been nominated multiple times for abhorrent work.
  14. Yeah, they really love "Poor Things", thought "Barbie" was stronger but apparently it will only win Best Song. Strangely enough they're leaving all the Oppenheimer awards for later.
  15. Honestly you should go with @Olympian1010 predictions hehe. He has some picks that are being considered "spoilers" by the experts, such as "The Zone of Interest" in Sound and "Red, White and Blue" in Live Actin Short. Also the combo of "Poor Things" for Costume Design/Production Design is safer now than my picks for "Barbie".
  16. I agree but I hope for at least 4 gold medals, which would be better than the 3 of 2008/2012. No way we can repeat the 7 golds of 2016/2020. Don't know what names/teams Gracenote is predicting for gold but maybe they were considering another one in Football which won't happen since the team didn't even qualify. Rebeca will only win a gold if Biles somehow fails in Vault. Isaquias, Ana Marcela, Martine/Kahena are not as regular as before and probably will contend for bronze. I guess Beach Volleyball/Surfing/Skateboarding are our best chances but nothing too sure. Maybe another surprising gold in Boxing or even Judo?
  17. If I was a Oscar voter, this would be my top 10 (alphabetic order): Anatomy of a Fall The Killer May December Monster Of an Age Oppenheimer Past Lives Perfect Days Robot Dreams Society of the Snow Special Citation (Documentary): The Eternal Memory Still have a lot to watch, especially international movies. Now that Oscar season is over, I'll try to catch up. Some of the films in my watchlist include: The Boy and the Heron, Close Your Eyes, The Delinquents, The Goldman Case, Green Border, La Chimera, Menus Plaisirs - Les Troisgros, The Missing, Origin, The Taste of Things, Tótem.
  18. Here with my annual Oscar predictions post. After some good results, last year I only correctly predicted 17/23 winners, which was my worst result in a long time. This year I'm also not sure about some categories, although 'Oppenheimer' is guaranteed to win Best Picture and at least 7 (8?) Oscars in total. I hope we have some surprises, but I think this will be another boring ceremony. I watched all the nominated films except for 'The Boy and the Heron' and 'Godzilla Minus One', which are not yet available on streaming/VOD. ["will win" is my prediction / "could win" is my alternate prediction / "should win" is my personal ranking from what I've watched / "shoud have been nominated" is a way to remember other notable work].
  19. Archery World Qualifier quotas Men's W1: Men's Compound: Men's Recurve: Women's W1: Women's Compound: Women's Recurve:
  20. Archery African/Oceanian Qualifier quotas Men's W1: Men's Compound: Men's Recurve: Women's Compound: Women's Recurve: No qualification in women's W1 as there were no eligible competitors.
  21. Happy Valentine's Day for those who celebrate. In related news, brazilian Table Tennis stars Calderano and Takahashi just announced they're dating.
  22. It's bad but in the end I don't think it would have made a difference? Anyway, kinda sad that probably won't qualify when one of and will
