Anthony Hopkins: 1 line verdict ×1

  1. verdict (verdict): Anthony Hopkins → The Two Popes. Best actor playing a pope who says 'that's my pizza'; Best orange soda in a film also goes to The Two Popes.
    “Best actor playing a pope who says, hey, that's my pizza is Anthony Hopkins.”

Cats: 1 line contrast ×1

  1. contrast (contrast): The Two Popes → Cats. The film's cut Cat of the Railway Train material makes a parallel joke to Cats.
    “I mean, Anthony Hopkins is trying really hard in the 2 posts, but I heard they cut out all of his cat of the railway train material.”

Mank: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (Netflix Oscar-bait comparison): Mank → The Two Popes. Netflix surely has another celebrated prestige film like The Two Popes coming.
    “I'm sure there's a 2 popes-esque thing coming down the pike that we're not even aware of”

The Wife: 1 line what-if ×1

  1. what-if (what-if): The Two Popes → The Wife. Speaker said The Two Popes would turn out to be this year's equivalent of The Wife, a back-door acting-nominee film.
    “It's weird that the 2 popes turned out to be the new the wife.”
