We take a look at the results of the 98th Annual Academy Awards and react to them. We’ve previously discussed 3 Academy Award WINNERS, check out our episodes on SINNERS, FRANKENSTEIN, and ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER.

Nominated for 13 Oscars, we felt it was worth squeezing into our month of secret society movies prior to the ceremony this Sunday. Here is our discussion of PTA’s ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER.

We celebrate a brilliant year for film in 2025 ahead of The Academy Awards on Sunday with something even more prestigious. An even higher honor: The Cinementalists Cinema Awards.
Best Picture, Director, Lead Performers, Supporting Performers, Original and Adapted Screenplays, Editing, Cinematography, Production Design, Hair & Make-Up, Score, Ensemble, VFX, and Sound.

Our month of delving in to cinema’s secret societies begins with John Carpenter’s THEY LIVE.

Hitting a recent best picture nominee to top off Black History Month, RaMell Ross’ NICKEL BOYS.

Can’t celebrate black filmmakers without mentioning Spike Lee, and we hit the quintessential DO THE RIGHT THING to continue our Black History Month coverage.

Our celebration of black filmmakers continues here on Valentine’s Day with John Singleton’s sophomore flick, starring Tupac Shakur and Janet Jackson: POETIC JUSTICE.

Black History Month kicks off for us with an incredible indie effort from Cauleen Smith: DRYLONGSO.

Our month of romance comes to a close with Cher’s Oscar winning turn in MOONSTRUCK.

A masterwork in yearning, Wong Kar-Wai’s IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE.
