As the Oscar season of 2020 comes to a close, we now find ourselves in our 2013 retrospective. The first film on the list we are reviewing is the Paul Greengrass-directed Best Picture nominee "Captain Phillips" starring Tom Hanks and Barkhad Abdi. How well does the film hold up today nearly ten years later? What did we think of the performances? The writing? Action and tension? Joining me for this podcast retrospective review, I have Nicole Ackman, Josh Parham & Ryan C. Showers. We hope you enjoy our first of many discussions on the film year that was 2013. Thank you!

With profound themes centered on technology, family, and very hyper-kinetic animation, the film has had film lovers brimming with excitement over the last couple of days. But what did we think of it? Tune in below to find out!

For our main podcast review this week, I am joined by Dan Bayer and guests Juan Carlos Ojano & Adriano Caporusso. We're reviewing the Michael B. Jordan starring action film "Without Remorse," also starring Jamie Bell, Jodie Turner-Smith & Guy Pearce . Co-written by Taylor Sheridan, directed by Stefano Sollima ("Sicario: Day Of The Soldado"), and based on a famous Tom Clancy novel, there is hope that this will be the start of a new action franchise for Amazon. How well did the filmmakers capture the spirit of Clancy's novel and his characters? How are the action scenes? We discuss all of this and more in our spoiler-filled review down below. Enjoy!

Mike Rianda's feature-length directorial debut "The Mitchells vs. The Machines" is premiering this weekend on Netflix after having a long road to release. A six year long project, the film first started at Sony with "Spider-Man: Into The Spier-Verse's" creative team and the producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller before moving to Netflix due to the COVID-19 pandemic, receiving a name-change (formerly titled "Connected") and now, it's finally here for the world to see. Mike was kind enough to take a few minutes to talk with us about the film's themes, its characters, the animation process and more! Check out below and be sure to watch the film on Netflix.

How does it all come together? What did we think? GET OVER HERE to find out!

It was a rollercoaster of emotions as the 93rd Academy Awards concluded in a shocking upset for Best Actor that left a poor taste in many fans' minds after the producers made the decision to announce Best Actress & Best Actor after the Best Picture award (first time this had happened since the 1930s) all in hopes of a different outcome than what we received. The shock, anger and disgust of it all could be felt from all of us here at Next best Picture as we hopped on to discuss the show immediately following its conclusion. There's so much more to talk about and here to join me for it all I have Amanda Spears, Cody Dericks, Dan Bayer, Josh Parham, Daniel Howat, Ryan C. Showers & Michael Schwartz. This was originally going to be a Patreon exclusive podcast but we decided to release it in full for all of you to listen to. Thank you all for what was surely one of the most bizarre awards seasons any of us have ever experienced. We're not going anywhere after this as there will be more to discuss in the weeks ahead but for now, enjoy our initial reactions to the 2021 Oscars.

For our main podcast review this week, I am joined by Sara Clements, Josh Parham & Dan Bayer. This weekend, we're reviewing the newest film on Netflix, "Stowaway," directed by Joe Penna ("Arctic") and starring Anna Kendrick, Toni Collette, Shamier Anderson & Daniel Dae Kim. It's another survivalist space discussion but this one has a moral dilemma at its center that's worth exploring and talking about. Take a listen as we discuss the performances, the story and the spoiler filled ending. We hope you enjoy!

Last night, the 2021 Film Independent Spirit Awards were held last night representing the best in independent film for 2020. After the show, I decided to do something I've never done before, which was to hop on a Zoom call with the NBP Film Community right after the show to talk about the winners and what our thoughts are heading into the Oscars this Sunday. Since Film Independent is an organization that anyone can join, it only felt right to celebrate this evening with the community, some of whom are voters themselves. Tune in below to listen and enjoy!

"Together Together" premiered earlier this year at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival where it garnered strong reviews for its screenplay, performances from Ed Helms, Patti Harrison and sensitive direction from Nikole Beckwith. Nikole was kind enough to spend a few minutes talking with us about the genesis of the project, working with the actors, what the story means to her and more. The film releases tomorrow from Bleecker Street and we highly urge you to check it out if and when you can. Enjoy!
