La La who? Hidden what? For the vast majority of us who haven't seen all of the movies nominated for this year's Oscars, it'd help to have some guidance before we camp out in front of the TV for hours. What if there was a way to know what we were getting into? Enter, honest movie posters.
Last year's crop highlighted the lengths Leonardo DiCaprio went for that Oscar (getting f*cked by a bear), and how Mad Max was just one big car chase (and it was awesome).
This year, sites like College Humor and Shiznit have watched the Oscar movies for the rest of us who have had better things to do and have prepared some posters to help you know what you're getting into before watching.
All the talk of this year's Oscars has been La La Land with its 14 nominations. But what is La La Land and should you see it? The answer is abso-f*cking-lutely if you happen to have a girlfriend.
