It's the Golden Globes special episode! Jeff and Mari break down the shitshow that was the 78th Golden Globes virtual show and all the surprising and not so surprising wins. The discuss Amy and Tina's hosting, how racist the HFPA is, how badly they want to give Jason Sudeikis a hug, how much bitches love The Crown, that Borat is important now, and of course how hot everyone is. Happy COVID award season everyone!

On this week's episode, Mari and Jeff are back in the same room to discuss Judas and the Black Messiah, but not before they discuss Barb and Star (again), one of Mari's favorite movies Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, Hotel Cecil and all of its creepies, and the fun animation of The Great North. Mari and Jeff GUSH over Daniel Kaluuya (fresh off his Golden Globe win!) and LaKeith Stanfield, they praise the film's cinematography and use of color, and they learn a few things about Chicago Black history along the way!

On this week's episode, Mari and Jeff chat about NEW MOVIES - Supernova, Blithe Spirit, and Barb & Star; what a group. They also set a record on Oscar Buzzkills and give out the highest ratings they've ever given to a film... and that film is Promising Young Woman. They have a deep discussion on how brilliant this movie is, why Emerald Fennell is a genius, the important things this movie says, and why it left such a huge impact on them. There's nothing else to say except yeah, this movie is really good.

On this week's episode, Mari and Jeff talk about the #FreeBritney movement and recent documentary episode her; the Scream franchise and Mari's bad taste in ranking horror films; campy and odd new horror; and the Oscars shortlist & what it means for potential Oscar noms. They also dove into Regina King's film directorial debut, One Night in Miami, and discussed the incredible ensemble, King's genius behind the camera, and all the things this play-turned-film did right. Plus... you guessed it! Everyone is still SO hot!!

After chatting about Mulan, The Little Things, and BOOKS, Mari and Jeff dive into the 2021 Golden Globe Awards and SAG Awards nominations - or as they are more commonly referred, the "poopoo undies" noms and then the non-racist noms!! Mari and Jeff recorded this episode TOGETHER, IN THE SAME ROOM for the first time in a long time so the energy is chaotic and they definitely choose violence again and again. What is Anthony Hopkins' secret? WHERE IS I MAY DESTROY YOU?? And WHY is everyone just SO hot???

On this week's episode, Mari and Jeff have an existential crisis about if they're the main characters of their own lives... then they also chat about The Assistant, more Euphoria (never enough Euphoria), books, more Search Party (never enough Search Party), the Film Independent Spirit Award nominations and diversity, and the iconic conversation between Pete Davidson and Glenn Close for Variety's Actors on Actors. They also deep dive into Netflix's Ma Rainey's Black Bottom - a beautiful adaption of August Wilson's play and the career defining performance for Chadwick Boseman. Mari and Jeff discuss the STACKED artistic team, the incredible performances, unique production design, and how they just enjoyed it all around.

Happy 2021 everyone! In the first OB episode of the new year, Mari chats about new movies(Soul, Herself, Some Kind of Heaven, Pieces of a Woman) and Jeff chats about an eclectic mix of media (Insecure, Search Party, WW84, Knife + Heart) that they both watched to ring in the new year. They also quick spotlight the Critics Choice Awards and the Gotham Awards winners and what they mean for the season. Mari and Jeff then deep dive into The Sound of Metal, and if this film doesn't win an Oscar for sound, they'll riot. (Too soon?)Riz Ahmed is incredible in this film; the relatively unknown artistic team did the damn thing well.

On this special episode of Oscar Buzzkills, Mari and Jeff go through their top 5 favorite television shows/seasons and new films of 2020 - a year that epitomizes a dumpster on fire, but a year in which television and film have NEVER been more important!

Lots of movies and television poppin out as we end the year! Mari and Jeff start this week's episode talking about the Euphoria special episode, The Prom on Netflix, Let Them All Talk, Big Mouth season 4, and their favorite/least favorite holiday movies. They also dive into David Fincher's (swoon) new film Mank on Netflix, a story following the writing of 1941's Citizen Kane. SPOILER: Mari and Jeff LOVED it. They chat about black and white cinematography, how perfect the movie's sound is, and how this might be a career-best performance for Amanda Seyfried.

On this week's episode, Mari discusses her new obsession with Josh O'Connor & the ESPN OJ documentary, while Jeff discusses John Wick & Miley Cyrus. They also both chat about The Undoing on HBO and why people are going nuts for it (and just to set the record straight, Mari loves child actor Noah Jupe BECAUSE HE'S TALENTED and THAT'S IT). Plus the fact that Warner Bros. and HBO are killing movie theaters. They also break down Ron Howard's new movie on Netflix, Hillbilly Elegy, that is getting a lot of shit. Did the book/film adaptation need to be made? Why now? What were audiences meant to leave with after this film? And was the film just a vehicle for Amy Adams and Glenn Close to finally win Oscars - a vehicle that unfortunately crashed and blew up??
