Let's reflect for a moment on the fact that two "genre" pictures not only were nominated for several oscars but won them as well. It's fantastic. #GetOut #ShapeOfWater

. @GlassMovie is far better than critics are saying and it is far more like Unbreakable than it is like a Split. It’s an interesting picture for sure. Also @MsSarahPaulson continues to be the best part of whatever she is in.
