Parasite Wins Big, The Broadcast Falls Flat & More 2020 Oscars Reactions
The awards race has officially come to a close, and in the spirit of our original name, AwardsBlend, we are here with our reactions to the very long telecast. Bong Joon Ho and Parasite won big. While only Producer Gabe was in love with the film, we are all very excited to see it win, and give our reactions to what this could mean for the future of the Academy.
After last week's show, news broke that Sam Raimi is in talks to take over Doctor Strange 2. Our resident comic book movie expert, Sean O'Connell, has a lot thoughts about what this means for that project, and the MCU/Spider-verse at large. Birds of Prey didn't quite take the box office by storm as many expected in its opening weekend. We give our thoughts on why that might be, and where the marketing for the film maybe went wrong.
