As the Oscar season approaches, one argument we're hearing more and more often is that this or that actor, director, or movie is obviously "thirsty" for an Oscar, and that such a thing is worthy of mockery.
Stephen King, who nominates in 3 Oscar categories, faced backlash for considering only quality, not diversity. Apparently, the two are not separate things.
Widely regarded as a nearly flawless film, 'Parasite' (2019) by South Korean director Bong Joon-ho has become an international cinematic sensation, but it wasn't an easy road for Bong Joon-ho to get here.
'Parasite' was the big winner at this year's Oscars, and Bong Joon-ho's success could (and should) open doors for other traditionally overlooked filmmakers.
The 2020 Oscar nominations are in, and not everyone is thrilled by the results; personally, I was surprised by how much they got right but it's certainly not a flawless list.
What better way to cap off the most eventful time of the year in the entertainment capital of the world than to get a front row seat to a discussion with Martin Scorsese, Noah Baumbach, Greta Gerwig, Lulu Wang, Todd Phillips, and Fernando Meirelles.
By any objective measure, Greta Gerwig's adaptation of 'Little Women' has been a huge success. However, ever since its release on Christmas, it's been seemingly endlessly mired in controversy, in a way that's not in any way deserved.
In our first show of the new decade we discuss the tragic passing of Kobe, the growing debate about Oprah, the Supreme x Tupac controversy, Big Sean finally addressing Kendrick Lamar, and our thoughts about the Grammys and Oscars.
