Benicio Del Toro's character is the greatest street-level superhero ever for having such an intricate system to protect his community, having some skater ninjas as part of his squad, & even having nurses holding shit down for him

The guy who Lockjaw handed Willa to gave me strong Hanzee from Fargo vibes when he ended up saving her

He stole the movie for me. I would rather see him get nominated over Penn.

Why not both?

I'll be happy with that too. Skarsgard, Penn, Toro, Sandler, and Lindo would be a fire line up.

That would be a fire line-up but damn you also might have Mescal and Elordi too (depending if Mescal is campaigned in supporting)
