Episode 157 - Academy Award Reactions

Hollywood’s biggest night took place during the 96th Annual Academy Awards and the Back To The Blockbuster team is recapping all the wins, snubs, flubs, and jokes from the event. All the Oscars have been handed out and Oppenheimer, which led with eleven nominations, took home seven for the night, including Best Picture and Best Director for Christopher Nolan, marking the first Oscar win of his career. The show was hosted by Jimmy Kimmel and we weigh in on if he measured up to his past endeavors as host and we  also touch on some of the bits on the show that landed (Messi The Dog, Ryan Gosling performing “I’m Just Ken”) and what jokes may have needed some work. Was it a proper celebration of the year in film? Listen to see if we felt it was the culmination of 2023’s output for the industry.
