This episode was recorded last week before the release of Avatar: The Way of Water which both of us have since seen. The Oscars shortlists have also been revealed since then, deeming Everything Everywhere ineligible for VFX, Nope ineligible for Sound, The Batman and RRR ineligible for Score, and X ineligible for Makeup. We didn't have the time to update accordingly and didn't want to scrap the episode, so we're including a disclaimer here that those predictions have since changed.
Anya and Tyler once again give updates on their predictions for the 2023 Academy Awards following the announcements of the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards nominations. We made some live predictions to spice things up as well as unpacking why RRR is now firmly in the race, and the gladiator match for the gold between Everything Everywhere All At Once and The Banshees of Inisherin.
