Discussed: The Batman, The Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman 1984, Shazam, Black Adam, Flash, Justice League

Four films received double digit Oscar nominations for the first time in the ceremony's history. This led to a thought experiment: what if films could only get one? Chris took a look at the eight major categories and doled out nominations with the restriction that once a film was named, it was off the board. In this episode, he takes a look at the acting categories in some very weird groups.
