AwardsBlend is your weekly catch-up on all things Oscars as we inch closer and closer to the Academy Awards, which will be held on March 4 this year. Why in March? How come we haven't had this ceremony already? For real, these movies have been in theaters for weeks... even months. It seems like we easily could have had the Oscar ceremony already. The guys -- CinemaBlend Managing Director Sean O'Connell; Fox 5 DC Entertainment Reporter Kevin McCarthy, and; Fox 32 Chicago Entertainment Reporter Jake Hamilton -- weigh in on the current state of the race, and then some. Before they get to the Best Supporting Actor and Actress races, Jake, Kevin and Sean share funny celebrity encounters, stemming from Kevin recently running into John Travolta and instantly peppering him with Face/Off quotes. Because of course. Enjoy!
