Thank you. The The first of the I'm the way. I'm going to be. Welcome to Andrew Jupin. Good evening. Good afternoon. Good after. noon, depending upon from. I'm here in New York

about to bring in three of my my greatest, loveliest dudes of all time. And we're going to talk about a lot of stuff. So let's get right to it. You know him. You love him. Stephen Sadec. Hey, how's it going? Going good, man. How are you doing? Doing good. I got Sabortooth here with me. Hey, Sabortooth. How's it going?

Hey, Sabortooth. Hey, Sabortooth. Hi, Sabertooth. Now, what made you think to bring that guy on the programs? Usually a little, when I'm a little, when I'm just kind of, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, I'm just kind of fiddling around with, actually, they're usually, they're strewn around my area. Look at these juicy behind the scenes deets. Speaking of behind the scenes, Mr. Eric Siska.

Can you believe this guy? He's got saber tooth. It's incredible. I'm trying to be like the Regis Philbin of our on screen. Oh, everybody needs a reege, dude. Yeah. It's incredible. Look at this guy. Wow. It's a toy. He plays with them while he's podcasting with himself. He plays with himself. He loves to fiddler too. Well, speaking of fiddling, didlin, any other idlin, Chris Cabin's here.

Okay. Oh, look, it's boxy. I have a, I have a thing too. See? I have a boxy. Look, it's boxy. It's not a contest, asshole. A proxy of Wolverine's other arch nemesis. Well, you know what I got is a stress. brick from the, from the, from the, from the, from the, from the, from the, from the, from the, from the, from the, looks like that, um, from the, from the, um, it's incredible. You can't crush this thing. You can't crush it. Uh, anyway, let's get right to it. We're going to a lot to talk about today, but first, uh, want to run the numbers. This is highest gross. I was sweeten to tell you

I'm going to this week's box office but a couple things to get out front here how the new contenders did this weekend first of all Infinity Pool that was the first one out the gate this weekend we're going to do about 2.7 million this was technically

um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, so, uh, uh, you know, that's, that's, that's where it's at, uh, at the moment. So it's empty pools around the country right now. Um, I haven't seen it. Not terrible, but it's a hard sell of a movie, you know? Yeah, exactly. The trailer looked difficult. I want to see it really badly. I just didn't get to it this week. Yeah, same. I'm probably going to see it this week. And I, uh, I did see it. Um, it's, um, it's, I, I don't think it's a two steps forward, two steps forward, two steps. back situation we have here.

I thought Possessor was a forward from antiviral. I think this is just a little bit of back from Possessor. It's not as intense. It's a little bit more like once it's not I mean everybody's been saying it. It goes nowhere. The title is kind of like perfect

because like it there's no end to it like it kind of is just like up where it there it goes. Yeah. I see a comment in the chat only heard about Infinity Pool through you guys and that's another thing is the marketing of movies has really falling flat. I'll tell you, right? I'll tell you, right? Because this literally premiered at Sundance like last week. And they do that fucking turnaround, man. And sometimes it's like, oh, wait, it's out. You know, for the average person who's not fucking

looking at, you know, release date calendars, it's like, oh shit, that's already out. I just thought I heard it premiered at Sundance. Right. So you'd think you'd turn around. You'd think it's like, oh, maybe in seven months I'll see it. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. The next. one, of course, of course, of course, um, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, , uh, that was this one, if you remember the poster from last week, 68K on four screens, uh, just in New York and L.A. So not too shabby, uh, for infinity or, uh, for, uh, for I'm shocked it's doing so well, because that poster again, bone chilling. Well, because you would think it as a horror movie, right? And you would look like a

fucking horror movie. Everything 824 makes looks like a horror movie or they, they want you to think it might Bia horror movie. Because it's the fucking genre that sells, man. It's like, it's a scotch disingenuous, but it's also really smart. And then unfortunately, the open for the new me and Hansen Love, one fine morning, four screens, two here in New York, and two in L.A. took 11.5 for the weekend. What was that somebody's birthday party? They went there and they just brought like 20 friends and they tried to work out. Yeah, unfortunately, just a little bit of a soft opening. It was just here at the film at uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, so hopefully that's here at, uh, I, I, it's not a very exciting movie. Like, by no means to say, but it's like the most like,

like a, a widow is like picking up a, uh, a new life. Like her, her dad is dying and she's starting up a new affair. Like it's the most like it's boilerplate. Nobody's going to get up. But it is incredibly well made. And I really do think once. I mean, I mean, but once it hits VOD, I think you should really, it's very good. Also, as the star, she's incredible. Uh, so we'll get to the top five here, entering the top five for the first week. I got to tell you, I look this up after seeing that it placed fifth here. Yeah, me too. I got to see this fucking movie. Yeah. Pathan, uh, this, uh, Indian, uh, spy movie came in here. It's first week, six million dollars. The trailer is very good. I am very good. I am very.

excited but I didn't hear about it it didn't hear about it well that's the thing you're now gonna of the many things can give RRR credit for you are now going to see a renewed

interest in well I'll just say white audiences wanting to see these movies yeah and like going there and like Pathan is like that would not have opened

like that before RRR definitely not yep there's an AMC where I live in Jersey City and we have such a huge South Asian population And like, like, like, like, like, like, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's interesting that it's happening more, more widely. Yeah, and Cabin, you, you, you hit the nail on the head.

It is all because of our, you know, when you see a lot of these South Asian films playing here in the city, you know, it's, it's like, Steve, it's like you said, you know, you'll get a single show time, you know, throughout the week. And those will do business, like, they will, yeah, find those movies and look at those numbers. Oh, yeah. They do business, but now I think what you're going to see. like, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, like, like, like, like, you know, like pothon here, you know, I'm pronouncing that wrong. You're going to be seeing, like, multiple showtimes of this movies. And shit, man, I would love to see just a full screen dedicated to the release of these movies. Especially in places like the Empire 25.

Yes. You got, yeah, they call it 25 because there's literally 25 movie theaters in a single complex. I think they're still playing Black Adam. I'm not even kidding. It really might be. I mean, that's the thing is I'm waiting for a big hit from China to do. something like Empire 25, because because they have, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, uh, uh, uh, uh,

uh, uh, Chinese, like, uh, detective and action movies. Like, uh, last year, they played detective versus loose is what's one of my favorite movies of last year. Uh, and, but I do think after after RRR, like, I checked out Vickram, which was not a movie, uh, that I would have ever looked at before, but just like, because I was in the mood, now I'm just paying attention to this more. Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah. Um, speaking of paying attention to things. I finally checked this out over the weekend. Number four, our girl Megan,

uh, uh, uh, uh, another six point four mil to, uh, universal. I got to tell you. Nah, no, no with me and Megan. I'll tell you right now because you watch this movie, man, and you know the, you can see the seams where they cut out that R rating and it was driving me crazy. Like, you cut your own throat quality wise to get you know, great. You're bringing people to theaters. You're supporting. You're supporting. Disappenance of the I'm not going to spoil anything, but there was the movies leading up to an event and you thought it was going to be a gore fest and it just kind of it's very anti-clagnantic. Yeah, I'm glad I skipped the theaters.

I'll definitely stream it now that I'll, I'm a sucker for a fendango fucking $20. I love just chucking 20 bucks out the window. It's fantastic. It's one of my favorite things to do. I bet. Did that with I own pray for the I own that I didn't tell you I didn't get my I didn't get my buns in the theater for Megan either

it is on rental like on Apple 1999 for rental I don't have to have Megan in my house forever there you go so there is that okay keeping it going here rise in the ranks for his next week of showing here

man called Otto Can't stop them. Can't stop them. Can't stop that time. He's a third in week. Grumpy old man. Here's a question. I don't know. When does 80 for Brady open? Is it next week or is this week? Coming soon. It's very soon. Next couple weeks or something. I just wonder if that's going to do like crazy numbers that we can't even anticipate because these old people are going to the movies. Possibly. It might be. Depends on like where. Maybe New England like the theaters are packed. Oh yeah. For sure. And I guess Florida. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is, uh, yeah, this is, uh, yeah, it's actually, uh, February 3rd, 80 for Brady comes out, let's see. Is he in it? I don't know, I didn't watch the trailer. I would love it if it's like, 80 for Brady, we're going to see Tom Brady and Gillette Stadium. Yeah, and then they get there and it's present day and someone's like, oh, man, he's playing. Oh, so they all have dementia's what you're saying. Got it.

Or they get there and it's like, oh, no, now we have to get on the bus to Florida. I think these old ladies someone's getting railed. I'm excited to see what you're getting right in there. Yeah, oh, you're so big. I'm like, I know what that means. Dude, they are being ripped through like Kleenex in that movie.

I guarantee it. They should just go full on sex scenes unsimulated. You usually will have like an Andy Garcia there to be the one who is going to rip it up. Sure. And I don't know. I think, you know, the funniest thing to do here would definitely get the Westworld Hemsworth to play Tom Brady.

you go. And actually have him be a character. That would be funny. Get a lady, ladies. Maybe he fucks, Billy Tomlin. Who knows? Hey, all right. Coming in number two,

speaking of going through like toilet paper or Kleenex rather, I guess, Puss and Boots, the last wish. Another 10.6 million truly unbelievable stuff. Which I know Chris, you reviewed it as it sucks, but we had some pushback on that.

Some people like this. movie. That's, that's, that's good. That's good. That's good. You know, it's good for Brady might be a money. It's a big sloppy sucky. Come on. Take your dentures out for this one. It's not even 1215. It's just, I had to put coffee back in the mug by the way in case anyone wondered what was going on. Look, we're trying to pitch gum in it with Jane Fonda in the lead. I mean, come on like we got to do some work here. Fuck, fuck, I would watch that movie. Coming in at number one, Avatar, Avatar, the way of water. If you can even believe it, another 15.7 mil in week seven. Here's the thing. I am predicting the box office next week, but Tista bomb knock at the cabin. I think it's number one. I think it unseats Avatar. That's my bold prediction. Horror is big and M-night, you know, He's back kind of resurgence, Amnizance, absolutely. I hope you're right,

that would be awesome. I think last year we were sort of saying, oh, maybe it'll be Ant-Man, which is two weeks after. But shit, if we can dethrone a little earlier, you know, hey, that's all right with me. I wouldn't be sad. So that's the box office for this weekend, folks. We will see what happens coming up. But we're going to keep just blowing through content here

because the big part of this episode, we want to talk about some Oscar nominations here. But before that, a very exciting television program is coming back this March. Let's check out the trailer for it. And you guessed it, trailer segment. It's starting off March 26th, I believe. What'd you make the banner for if you're not going to use it, asshole? There we go.

26 on HBO max. Let's dive into this trailer, take a look at it. This will be interesting for me. I gave up in season two. Really? It's just, it puts me to sleep. Yeah, something about, the first season I was a little bit eh on, and then two and three on, I was like, way in.

It gets so good, dude. I would say give it another shot if you can. Do, do, do. Something I've been on my mind. I mean, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the, the, like, the, I, I, I, I have my issues with the writing and I, I, I, I, I'm definitely, bad episodes where I want to go to sleep, Eric, but, uh, I, but all the, like, like, Adrian Brody's stuff last season, all the, uh, phenomenal. All the acting has just been out of this world good in this. I, I, I, what I like about the show mostly is that it, it really makes all of these people so fucking miserable. And it just, like, shows that, like, extreme wealth doesn't exactly, uh, uh, equal happiness. but they, but they do enjoy their entourage, but it's not like entourage where it's like, yeah, like, you know what I mean?

Like, it's a little different than there. No, in the back of all of their minds, suicide is always an option. Right, because they're somehow eviler than entourage, right? Well, they got more money than Vincent Chase, so there's that. Northeast entourage. That line, man, holy shit. And he's great too. What's his face?

McFadion. I did like him in the, I did like him, he's so good, I mean, I mean, movie I actually love is his pride and him as Darcy, I thought was fantastic. Oh, okay. So we kind of already sort of blew through talking about infinity pool, so I think we don't need to sort of rehash that and what are you watching? Which gem is in the pool? Or is that a spoiler?

You know what? You know what? I'll say. Steve, Steve, it's either. It's either. Yeah. Take it. Oh, you're just going to burst. You're going to burst there, Steve. It's green time. And what is blue, Steve? Oh, I have in this last fucking clue. Turn over your card. But I have spent the last week and a half watching a bunch of shit at Sundance. And just wanted to recap a couple of things here. that I think you three guys would also like as well as the folks watching at home here. this one, man, they made it for me. New Willie Nelson documentary. Willie Nelson and Family by Orrin Movement and Tom Zinney.

No distribution or release plan yet on this guy, but it's like four and a half hours long. I got to see the first two parts of it. That's huge. I used my first concert post-pandemic, if you will. You have a little less than three months until 420. Somebody figure put it. I know. Dango evented. Yep. Yep. Yep. Dude.

I will be. Fathom event of it. Yeah. Phandango. Yeah. Fathom fine. I'll break my fucking no fathom rule if you do that because all the theaters be like it's totally cool. Just come on. You don't say what's cool,

but you just say it's totally cool. Come on. Yeah, totally. Like 420 event. Willie Nelson a little asterisk at the bottom, it's cool. We need smoking sections like this is a smoking theater oh you don't wait till the one o'clock showing

that's in the smoking theater. I love it. Or at least break like vaping. Like I get people don't want smoke in the theater but some vapes. So another one that I just watched yesterday that I was completely surprised by because I did not think it was going to be up my alley at all. It's a new

sort of Fodak called theater camp directed by Molly Gordon and Nick Lieberman Searchlight just picked up this guy for 8 million bucks and it is about like an upstate New York theater camp that is like falling on hard times Amy Sedaris plays the leader of the camp

who falls into a coma and the camp is taken over by her like idiot son who's played by the guy who was like the big dufist in American bandol Oh yeah oh no no it's no it's no okay Ben Platt is one of

Ben Platt. Ben Platt, I have to I have to Ben Platt, that I have not liked in a lot of things. That fucking Deer of Enhancing movie is abysmal shit. But he is really, really funny in this movie. It

does the faux doc thing, but it removes talking heads, so it's all like Giuse Verite and like intertitles. Very, very funny stuff. I was excited for a second because you're like, like, like, like, soderas said, like, like, soderas said, I'm like, I'm like, she does have a couple of really funny moments, but yes, she's not in the movie a ton, unfortunately. I'm just glad that Molly Gordon's doing stuff. Molly Gordon's been a great actress for a while. She's in, uh, Shiva baby. She was in, uh, Bojolski's there, there last year. Um, she's really fantastic. The book, smart. She's in as well. She's one of friends in book smart. Triple A, I think is the character's name or something. Um, um, So yeah, I don't know what they're going to look out for that. Speaking of, I don't know what they're going to do with it. Later this year.

New one from Australia, our friends down under. And speaking of Sarah Snook, the new film Run Rabbit Run, directed by Dana Reid. Netflix picked this up for an undisclosed amount. I know just like everything with Netflix. It's undisclosed. This one's about Elmer Fudd. Is that right? That's right. It's the Elmer Fud biopic. He's fucking killing rabbits left and right. until he comes across his mortal enemy bugs bunny. It's not the, it's not the, not an aging basketball player. No, no, no, no.

This is Sarah Snook from Succession plays a mother who's got an eerie fucking kid. But the nice twist of this is the eerie kid might be linked to the mother's fucked up past. It didn't play well It didn't play well for a ton of folks I saw seeing it I don't think it's a perfect movie But Sarah Snook is absolutely fantastic Yeah and for more eerie kids Take a look at the poster again for close

Very Eerie kid Bring that up again Eric because you're right We just want to make sure reminding people out there This isn't a horror movie It's about a fucking Sad as Hell tragedy Not an Eerie Kid movie But if you see this

Eerie kid. Sad kid. Eerie kid. It's sad kid. There we go. Sad kid. Eerie kid. Where's the sad? There we go. Yeah, no, this is terrifying. I watched it lately late at night.

Eerie, eerie shit. I'm so glad we have the video element to cut between those. Okay, so here we go. The big thing we wanted to get to today. That's right. The Academy Award, came out literally the day after last week's broadcasts. We didn't get a chance to talk about it. Oh, I'm going to watch the Oscars. Oh, yes, Stephen Sagal getting ready for the Oscars. Hope I don't get robbed at a liquor store. This is so exciting, by the way. Hollywood's biggest night. They're doing it again. They've brought it back for you, for your enjoyment. This is very excited. You can even believe it. I think it's Sunday, March 12th is the, I'm sure to be horrendous broadcast. But we'll go through just a couple of the categories. is here. We'll start up with best supporting actress. Angelic, Angela Bassett for Black

Waconda Forever. You got Hong Chow for the whale, Carrie Condon for the benches of Inasharon, Jamie Lee Curtis for everything everywhere all at once. And Stephanie Shoe for everything everywhere, all at once. Would not be surprised for Carrie to take it away. That would be nice. She's incredible in that movie. Yeah, I would think it's probably a two-woman race between Carrie Condon and Angela Bassett is my one of the two will win. I saw, I like the movie quite a bit. Not my favorite movie of the year, but I think Jesse Buckley

is absolutely one of my favorite performances as a better supporting actress of the year. And that's, it's kind of not, she didn't get attention. Well, it's weird. Like, I think that all can't, the fact that so many good performances are women were in that one movie. It just canceled them all It has to be an ensemble piece. Good, good, good, Chris. This is what we're trying to say. Ask less women. We are trying to tell everybody

if you want to really push the art form forward, less women. So let's see here. Moving on to the supporting actor, Brendan Gleason for the Benches of Inneshire and Brian Tyree Henry for Causeway, Judd Hirsch. uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, I, I kind of think you got to go with Kwan here. Yeah. I think you really do have to go that way. I mean, like, I would love it to go to almost anybody here. I, I haven't seen Causeway yet. Uh, no one has. Yeah. I, a lot people I know have. That's the thing. Oh, is that right? Okay. I just, I haven't gone around to it.

I have heard good things to be fair. It's not good things. It's not good things. It's not It's not something. I was like Jennifer Lawrence and Brian Tyree Henry. It's just it's not enough. Whereas like all these others, I'm like, yeah, those were incredible performances, each one of them. Two things. One, yes, to answer someone in the chat, I was fixing my light fixture because it kept falling for a second there. Two, and Eric will agree. I liked Judd Hirsch in that movie because it gives the period piece and it's back when you had scary. grandparents, like, like, like, like, right? scary relative, yeah, that's a knock on the door is grandpa hers showing up. Ripping his shirt and yelling at you.

Oh, absolutely, man. I mean, from the circus. I, I, I am pretty confident I was yelled at by my grandfather one time in my life and it still shakes me to my fucking, oh, yeah, dude. I shakes me to my core. I remember calling my grandfather. in Chicago, you know, you know, you know, you know, and this was like, you know, and my parents just had me call

and he answered the phone. Sure, dime, start talking. Oh, wow. Scared the shit out of me. And then I was like, dimes, what is he talking about? It took me years to realize it was pay phone jargon and also out of date pay phone jargon. So you think you would have been less confused if your grandfather picked up the phone and was like,

yeah, you dial 10, 10, 10, 220, it's on you. did he had he had he had a phone booth in his house was he was he was he was a phone booth was he was he was he didn't really know him that well but uh scary and abrasive sort of like i will become you know that's the goal role model you'll become uh let's see let's get over to the the other side here of uh let's see we got a leading actress um kate blanchette for tar on a de armas you could stop breeding. I think. Andrea Reisbrose. Andrea Reisbrough for two, Michelle Williams, for The Fableman's and Michelle Yo, for everything everywhere all at once. Is this the first time in Oscar history two Michelle's been nominated at the same time? That's a good question. Possible? Is it the first time that a woman in an absolutely dog shit movie was nominated? Because why is blonde anywhere? And she is fine in it. She's totally fine in it. But that movie is absolute dog shit. How do you put it on? I still haven't. But this almost made me think, is everything. Everyone wrong? You saw it? You saw it? I did see it. I saw it's. I mean, like, like, like, like, I'm taking a lot of swings for sure. I don't think she's not bad. She's definitely the best part of the movie for sure. Without her, it's totally unwatchable, but even still. Steve, can I ask you this? Because I think I was thinking about this the other day. I was like, what is something that can help me decide whether or not I see this movie? You see her going downtown on JFK or what? You do while he's watching. I'm watching. I'm watching. be movies. Do you see Shaft? Do you see Shaft?

Do you see Is he was he was that? He was long dead before that came out. Never mind. I wish I was that guy. What a great nickname. He's so cool. No, actually Shaft was the family

name. I forgot about that. John Shaft. Yeah, I think you know, Cape Lanchett, Eric, to your quip, probably. But the other side is the other side is the other side is good. Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you because that would make me laugh for about a year? I mean, all of this actually culminates in her fucking taking the prize. What even happened? No money changed hands. I don't know what we're losing. It's a non-controversy. It's a non-controversy. It's like she essentially did what Melissa Leo did, but in a smaller way, a much smaller way. And like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's, well, the people that are most mad about it are the fuckers that literally spend those briefcases full of cash on all these campaigns to get the nominations. And this was a non-campaign.

It was just a couple of tweets or internet bids or whatever. And, like, hey, man, sorry you got to fucking be in your bonnet about that and didn't think of it yourself. But, like, come on. And now we're having, like, some sort of. of Oscar board trial like it's the fucking hague like it's the fucking hague like you're just like a very good actress through a really shitty situation totally congratulations also the folks that are like oh well you know she wasn't nominated so-and-so should have been nominated hey you're totally right and you know what that's also true for it literally everyone else that got a nomination

so that is a non-argument there as well i'm sorry it is like whatever and you know what maybe someday I think, who the shit knows? And I think, Chris, that's the other thing about it is like, like, like, like, they ain't watching that movie. And all these like voters that are all pissed off, they're not going to watch it. You know what I mean? I don't know. I don't see it happening. I think it's, it's really a toss up between Michelle and Kate. Michelle Yo, I should say. Yes. Michelle Williams, who I thought was fine playing Mitzie fucking tableman there. I thought that was a really good performance. But it's, it's Blanche. or yeah, that's just how it is. Then over to the lead actor side of things here. We got for Elvis, Colin Farrow for Banshees, Brendan Fraser for the whale, Paul Meskow for Afterson, and Bill Nighy for living. Oh, what? You got nominated just for being alive. Essentially. I mean, yeah, pretty much. There's your Andrew and Reisbrook. Like, find me anyone, here's something. Next year, most of the people that liked living will not be living. Yep. Yep.

There you go. See it as a poster. You'll be a movie. It's just, a movie nobody was, a remake of Akiru, nobody was asking for that. But also, who saw, who saw this movie? I think less people

saw that movie than saw to Leslie. I genuinely think that. I just don't understand it. But we, well, we know who Bill Nighy is, so it's okay. You know what I mean? And like, it's a kind of a career thing, which is fine. I love Bill Nihue in general. You know what I mean? Over Paul Dano, for fuck's sake.

Yeah. There's also. There's also. There's also. There's also. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I don't, I think any one of these guys could win it. Because Paul's great an after son, Brendan and the whale, Colin, obviously. And Austin Butler, what a fucking career making performance. Absolutely. I think if I had to, if I had to put money on it, probably, uh, Colin Farrell again. I would career. Career issue. But I mean, Austin Butler, I think has a beat. I think. I think Butler might be something here. It's, it's, it's, I think it's three with Colin. Butler and Brendan has the like that's the vote of like like he gets the heat he's just coming off Golden Globes and all that shit like Austin Butler at that performance him and Tom Hanks dueling makes that movie what it is and it's like the best

thing Baz Luhrman's made maybe ever Romeo and Juliet gets a lot of points just because he used the text of Romeo and Juliet so it sounds good But this one, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, but I'm like, like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm, I'm not, I'm not trying to be, uh, flippant here. It does sound, this might sound a little gauche, but I don't think it's out of the realm of possibility. Um, I think the death of Lisa Marie Presley may help Austin Butler in this because, it might be true. There's that whole thing. There's the sympathy there. he's talked, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, she loved the performance, you know, so, like, her untimely passing may have, like, sort of turned heads back towards the movie in a way, you know, I don't know, I know it sounds shitty, but it's a shitty fucking business, but, you know, and most of the Academy voters, you know, probably knew Elvis or so, you know, they're old enough that they were like, are hanging around at that, they're friends with the fucking colonel, dude. Yeah, exactly. Uh, so, yeah, I think that's a big up in the air. I think, as far as far as far as he is, that's just kind of a nice, like, man,

I kind of also, like, I kind of think he's more of a supporting performance, but it's, it's nice that he got nominated. Totally. Moving over the directorial side of things here, Martin McDonough for banshees, Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinart for Everything Everywhere, Senior Spielbergo for the Fableman's, Todd Field. for Tar. Ruben Oslin for a triangle of sadness. That's the big for me. I could see Elvis instead. Sarah Polly would be welcome for women talking as well.

Especially because with women talking, I mean, that's a ton of really great performances to manage the directing for. Yes, for sure. You know what I mean? Which is a fucking feat. There's not a ton else going on in that movie. So it's, that's why I think, like, like, like, so it's why do you nominate it's why I think, like, like, like, directorial at least. Yeah. She should have been right in there because she's directed, you know, a bevy of really kick-ass performances in that movie.

But like, Rub, like, Triagal of sadness. I mean, my, my criticism of it from the beginning was this is exactly the kind of like satire of rich people that rich people fucking love. Like, right? Like, and that's, so, and it's like, this proves my point more than anything that the fucking academy was like, Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, I do, I do us to be fair. I think that's, I think that's the menu more than triangle of sadness. I prefer. I mean, I, I think it's a little more teeth. Uh, I know you have a problem with the last moments of it. I kind of like it. I also kind of think it's a little, it's like, it's like nominating meet the fuckers for directing. It's just it's, it's that Ben Stiller gross out humor that's, that's inside this like fake

parasite sheen. The movie kind of did rubbed me. I don't know. I understand. I understand. I think there are things in it. But personally me, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, yeah, yeah, you want this, the Academy Awards to be Tard and feathered. I mean, Tarr was the most engrossing movie of the year. I loved it. I mean, like, it's the performance for sure performances, uh, people who weren't nominated as well. But like, the director, the direction of that movie, it draws you you're talking about a movie. We're talking about a fucking composer. It's not exactly a movie about spies

like that, but it draws you in. A composer who is very much real, by the way. Lydia Carr, we love you. Real person. Yep, she's in Newsweek every week. She has an opinion column there. It was really great biopic. I think Field probably, he might take it.

Like, I really do think he might take it. I'd be cool with that. I'd be fine with me. I would I would like Spielberg to win for him. I think that's He's one before. He's one before. But yeah, he's won before. I don't think he needs another one on there. Field did, this is a hell of a turn from little children. So I kind of have to give it to him on that one. Yeah, I agree with you, Steve. That's a P-U

on Little Children. Although, wasn't, isn't Todd Field, like, hasn't he been nominated for all three movies. I think he wasn't a misnomer. He was not nominated for best He was not nominated for that. He should have been. Yeah, he should have been. When he yells out, it's not a moon, it's a space station.

We know, we love, everybody loves that line. Everybody loves the line. For sure. No, because in the bedroom, wasn't nominated for that or no. I don't remember. I mean, they all got nominations for sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I mean, so it's like, you know, Todd Field, he's that like, rare director that's kind of like some sort of like, you know, like it comes up out of the ground. every fucking 15, does some damage. He was nominated. He was nominated, uh, writing adapted screenplay for little children. And then he was nominated, uh, well, best picture for in the bedroom and writing, um, did not win any of them. Got it. Um, so yeah, no stranger to, uh, nominations here. we go. So here we go. All 10 titles, best picture. We got all quiet on the way of Inashireen, Elvis, everything everywhere, all at once. Fableman's, Tarr, Top Gun Maverick, Triangle of Sadness, and Women Talking. Crowded Field here. That's all 10. And I think it's a real, I think it's one of two ways. It's either one of the ones that you

definitely think or fucking all quiet on the western front and everyone shits. It better not be. I just watch all I swear to God. Look, if you are really, if you were really in the need for another fucking world war movie, either one. I don't care at this point. Either the OG or the sequel. Yeah, either one. Like, yeah, go ahead, find it. It's very gory. The sequel. Yeah. By the way, World War II. That's like the Terminator 2. Yes. Yes. I mean, too much. I mean, too hard. I mean, it's also like, your foster parents are dead. Because I killed them. John! No! Now! Now! I, uh, my guess would be it's everywhere, everything. It doesn't win for directors. They're never going to give the two directors that. You think so? Well, they got to print two trophies. They might switch it up. you know, like, like, like, you know, you know, you know what I'm, like, like, you know what I'm, like, you know what I'm, like, you know what I mean? Like, that's, I'm, that's my guess is how everything everywhere kind of like has a mini sweep. Oh, yeah.

Um, I'm predicting tar. Ooh, I love this tar sweep. Oh, yeah. I go ahead. Well, I mean, I think, I have, I think it's one of two. It's either tar or I. Or it would be Top Gun Maverick. I really think they might do it. If it was going to happen, maybe there's enough vile Scientologist voting in this process. I just, there's something about it. Like, I don't think Banches is going to take it

and I don't think Avatar is going to take it. Yeah. But like everything everywhere also just seems like for the old voters, it seems like a little too much, I'll say. Like, I think people will watch that be like, this seems like, I don't know. It could be fablement if that's, if you're, maybe, you know, but that's what I thought tar would take. I think tar would get the old people and, and also get like the new Todd field. Because remember, tar did kind of okay in that limited release to like, you know, smaller like indie houses and like metropolitan art theaters where you do see a lot of old fuckers come through those doors. I think though, Chris, something you were saying inspired this thought in me. this could be a year where the thing that they give best picture to

something that wins absolutely nothing. that would be something. I would throw up. I would lose my I would lose my mind. I would be more than you folks, but I totally agree. By the way, speaking on Top Gun Maverick again, we did a full-length episode on that on Patreon. Patreon.com slash we hate movies and we had a lot of fun talking about that movie, which, yes, but it's a fun movie. Oh, they're all made by evil people. I know they are. That's true. That's why they're movies. So, yeah, I don't know. We'll have to see, you know, of course, we will be talking about the aftermath on our March, what would that be, 13th episode of On Screen Live. So who knows? We'll have to see. Hopefully a other slap this year, right? Oh, you think another slap, dude? Oh.

God, you gotta spice it up. You gotta spice it's gotta spice it's gotta a slap. Maybe this year, maybe a fucking roundhouse kick in 2024. How about this? I think let's go the other way. Let's dial down the temperature in the room. Someone accidentally while going to start their acceptance speech just cuts a gnarly loud fart. Ooh, I like it's picked up on the mic. I love that. And we're all talking about the fart the next. Yeah, like Russell Crow is presenting an award or something. And just like, you see like the, the, the, the, the, uh, uh, uh, uh, like the, uh, uh, but but because it's Russell Crow, he does a full on leg lifter. Like, yeah. Like a real. Absolutely. Yeah. Russell Crow will fart at the Academy Awards, not give a fuck if you know about it. A four scale wind of four fosters beers just pushing itself out his ass all, all at once. Oh, man. Now I am really hoping for the fact that we get to talk about the fart. I don't know. If anyone, if anyone, if anyone, if anyone, it happens at the academy, make it

somehow. I also think Tom Cruise slapping Kevin Feigy for some reason, sounds great. Just, you know, if you want good television, and that's what the rock and Will Smith thing was, dude, get that going. If Tom Cruise smacked Kevin Feigy in the face, he'd knock that motherfucker into phase seven. Thank you. Good. Good. Speaking of Russell Crow, though, uh, we do have to start wrapping it up here, but we want to plug some stuff that we got going on in-house this week at the W-H-Factory folks.

fine. It's not. People really like it. People really like people. People really like, too. I just kind of like it. I think it's a bit of a disjointed mess. But it actually like had this thing where like they made they figured out what to do with Thor. They made him into like a Kurt Russell asked kind of. Yep. Like the odds are against me and we're going to do it anyway kind of a guy. Right. And this movie, he's stupid. He's dumb as shit and the big as a brick shit house. He's a little too big in this movie. Honestly. I mean, he's a little too jacked. It looks a little bit. It looks a little bit. It looks a little bit. It looks a little fake. It's, I was just like that. That's all him. I know it is all him, but it is so him that it looks like. I can't imagine getting in that kind of shape. And that's my fault. That's the fault of me. Chris, you know, we like to say it's okay to like a movie. Sure is. I'll actually enjoy this movie that is totally fine. Sure. Compliment this movie. I couldn't believe the performance. bale first uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, Speaker jesus christ, that was the whole morning. Was it an Eric? This is all the work.

You know what Chris Kavan? That was two pots of coffee. We are, oh dude, if Al Gore got the fucking, uh, the necros sword, I'm going to start cutting off the heads of all these climate peat polluters. I am sick of it. Oh, here comes someone driving down the homer, better kill him with my god-killing sword.
