Sophia Wilson Pelton and Matt Bragg try to guess the plots of several Oscar-nominated movies they haven’t seen yet...before looking up the real answers.

What You’ll Hear

From Heist Movie to Vampire Horror: Matt pictures Sinners as a stylish Ocean’s-style caper starring a charming crew of criminals. Sophia then reveals the real premise: twin brothers in 1930s Mississippi facing down bloodthirsty vampires.

Cowboys, Conspiracies, and a Very Confident Guess: Sophia imagines a dusty Western showdown for One Battle After Another, complete with dueling cowboys and a troubled hero.

A Love Story in the Flower Fields (That Absolutely Does Not Exist): Inspired by the name alone, Sophia invents an entire romantic drama about a Swiss gardener protecting her beloved Bugonia (well, Begonia) fields from a developer… only to discover the real film involves conspiracy theories and a suspected alien CEO.
