Our semi-comprehensive dive into this year's Best Picture nominees at the Oscars comes to an end with The Fabelmans! Ben, Bree, Sam, and Vaz dance in the headlights, dream about punching Seth Rogen, and move to Arizona and then Northern California to discuss Steven Spielberg's semi-autobiographical coming of age film... and I promise the episodes will be back to normal length next month!

Directed by Steven Spielberg, who co-wrote it with Tony Kushner. Starring Gabriel LaBelle, Michelle Williams, Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, and Judd Hirsch.

It's almost time to bring our month-long look at some recent Oscar Best Picture nominees in for a landing, but before we do, we're gonna talk about the movie that (maybe?) saved theaters last year - Top Gun: Maverick! Ben and Anthony take the highway to the danger zone (sorry) to discuss Joseph Kosinski's instant popcorn-classic.

Directed by Joseph Kosinski and starring Tom Cruise, Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Ed Harris, and Val Kilmer.

At long last, THE LATIES have returned! The Oscars were merely preamble to this, the TRUE biggest night in Hollywood. Ben, Greg, Jordan, and Ray deliberate and hand out some awards to the best and brightest in 2022 movies in this action-packed, special extended episode.

Who will take home Best Picture? Which of us will win Best Song?! What could that last question possibly mean?!? Listen now to find out!

If you thought our semi-thorough round up of Best Picture Nominees from this year's Academy Awards was going to end once the Oscars were over... there goes that dream! Up this week - The Banshees of Inisherin! Ben, Jordan, Lindsey, and Robbie portend death, work on their music, and repeatedly ask each other to go down to the pub like to discuss Martin McDonagh's latest tragicomedy.

Written, directed, and produced by Martin McDonagh and starring Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon, and Barry Keoghan.

Did something happen last night? Oh, that's right - Daniels' Everything Everywhere All At Once became the first film EVER to win five above-the-line Oscars, and won seven overall. Let's talk about that movie!

This episode was recorded a couple weeks ago but the sentiments remain timely: Ben, Cory, Noah, and Pat talk about one of our favorite movies of the last year, and one that may have just heralded a sea change in the film industry... sounds crazy, but get ready for A LOT of knockoffs in the coming years!

Written and directed by Daniels (Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert), starring Michelle Yeoh, and featuring Stephanie Hsu, Ke Huy Quan, James Hong, and Jamie Lee Curtis.
