Director Robert Rodriguez is back in cinemas with a script co-written by James Cameron for "Alita: Battle Angel." Starring Rosa Salazar, Mahershala Ali, Christoph Waltz & Jennifer Connelly, this manga adaptation has a lot of potential to not just entertain with its dazzling special effects but to also set up sequels for the future due to its world building. Does it accomplish any of this? Kt Schaefer joins me to talk about this and many more aspects from Rodriguez's latest. Thank you so much for listening.

I know. I know. Is anything truly a lock on Oscar night? Shockers happen all the time. Contenders sweep the entire season, winning every award possible, like Jason Reitman's "Up In The Air" for Best Adapted Screenplay in 2009, and then out of the blue "Precious" wins on Oscar night. Since these posts are more rooted in stats than gut feeling (though, that sometimes plays a role as well), I think it's very fair to call certain categories locked and loaded for Oscar night on February 24th. There's not many but they do exist this year and while we wait for some of the final guilds to chime in for those categories, let's take a look at these. Click below to see my in-depth analysis on the categories I deem to be locks for the 91st Academy Awards and be sure to check out my previous article on the acting categories.

Best Supporting Actress has been a clustered mess this year. This has mostly been due to the fact that the critical favorite, Regina King in “If Beale Street Could Talk,” failed to achieve nominations from two of the big precursor groups – Screen Actors Guild and BAFTA. Amy Adams and her six career nominations without a win seemed like the case-closed frontrunner for “Vice” months ago, but it never materialized. Even though she gained a firewall of nominations for the film, associations have been hesitant to make this the role for which she finally wins. After maintaining a consistent buzz all season long, hitting all the necessary precursors (Critics Choice, Golden Globe, SAG, BAFTA, AMPAS), and recently winning the BAFTA, I have decided to predict Rachel Weisz in “The Favourite” to win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

Sundance 2019 was the “slowest movie festival ever” for sales according to Variety. This year, something different was in the air. Perhaps it was the success of Sundance sales from last year like “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” and “Three Identical Strangers.” Perhaps it was the fact that Amazon got out of the gate quickly and everyone felt compelled to catch up. Whatever the reason, studios threw money around liberally this year. Whereas the 2019 Sundance audience award winner still remains without a distributor, the majority of this year’s hits, narrative and documentary alike went home with a distributor.

Josh Parham and I are back to continue discussing the latest season of "True Detective" and where we feel the show has gone after 3 initially strong episodes that left us intrigued and filled with anticipation. How do the latest three episodes fare? Are we optimistic about the final two episodes? What do we think of Mahershala Ali's multi-timeline performance? We answer all of this and more on our latest discussion. This is a preview of the podcast, the full version of which is only available to those who subscribe to us on Patreon. For the small price of $1 a month, you can receive this review along with other exclusive podcast content, so be sure to subscribe here. Thank you so much for listening.

We have heard from the Critics Choice Awards, the Golden Globes, the Screen Actor's Guild Awards and most recently, the BAFTAs. Now, all that's left are the Academy Awards. As I've done the past couple of years, I will be doing a deep dive into each category to analyze who I think might win the Academy Award on February 24th using a combination of stats from the creation of the SAG Awards in 1994 to today along with gut instinct and intuition (which this year certainly requires). First up are the acting categories which have thrown us a few curveballs this season. Let's take a look. Click below to see my in-depth analysis on each of the four acting categories.

We’re less than two short weeks away from the Academy Awards, and almost all of the precursors are behind us. Plenty of categories are still up in the air, even this close to the ceremony. Yesterday, the BAFTAs were awarded, giving us some last minute insight into how the Oscar winners might turn out. A few frontrunners were solidified, some races remain unclear, and even one or two dark horses kept their chances alive. Let’s take a look at how the BAFTAs might’ve impacted the Oscar race.

Wow, this has been a tough year to narrow a list down to just ten films. We've had some great films about life in eighth grade, leaving no trace in the woods, becoming the first man on the moon and life in Wakanda. But these ten spoke the most to me and will be what I would love most to revisit in the years to come. You've seen the wonderful Top 10 lists from my NBP colleagues Matt, Danilo, Kt, Josh Parham, Jacey, Celia, Cody, Josh Williams, Nicole Ackman, Daniel Howat, Ryan C. Showers & Beatrice Loayza. So let me join them and add my ten cents. |
