Of course, it’s always fun to speculate way ahead of time when it comes to the last bastion of hope we have with the Oscars. 

The 29th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards are being handed out tonight. If you care to tune in, the ceremony will air live on Netflix’s YouTube channel starting at 8 p.m. ET.

I’m hearing from a source at Warner Bros that David Sazlav and James Gunn are planning to keep Flash star Ezra Miller for more movies.

"RRR" is being re-released in theaters in the U.S. this coming Friday, March 3.

An official teaser trailer for Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” was released last December.

They were not televised but available to stream freely on YouTube, where they gathered just 440k views. Less than half a million people were watching.

“Tropic Thunder” in 2023 is a landmine of triggered outrage waiting to happen. If this movie came out today, and bless Paramount for having had the guts to release it 15 years ago, most would completely miss the point.

“Quantamania” nabbed $32.2M in its second domestic weekend, a 69% drop. That’s a historic low second weekend for Marvel. No MCU movie has ever had a worst drop during its second weekend of release.

“RRR” director SS Rajamouli gets that. Recently chatting with The New Yorker, he was asked about the quality of action filmmaking in Marvel and other recent superhero movies:

Fun times we live in. My recommendation to all of you is to buy as much physical media as possible (books, DVDs etc) before an inevitable purging of the classics becomes the norm.

I don’t know how else to say this, but “Everything Everywhere All At Once” is winning the Best Picture Oscar.

Will Smith has won his first (and only) award this season for his lead turn in “Emancipation.”

Nicolas Philibert’s “On the Adamant” won the Golden Bear prize at the 73rd Berlin Film Festival. The French documentary chronicles a unique day-care center in the heart of Paris that welcomes adults suffering from mental disorders.

Sydney Sweeney’s performance in “Reality” was raved about to no ends at this year’s Berlin Film Festival. She received a lot of good ink from critics for her first big noteworthy movie role.

It looks as though “Cocaine Bear” will be exceeding projections this weekend at the box-office. Last night, the R-rated action-comedy nabbed a more-than-decent $2 million in Thursday previews.

The 48th César Awards happened in France this evening, this is their equivalent to the Oscars. The ceremony took place at Paris’s Olympia concert hall.

Jamie Dack’s “Palm Trees and Power Lines” was the most controversial movie of last year’s Sundance Film Festival, and it’s being released in theaters next Friday.

UPDATED: A few impatient readers are wondering what’s going on with this poll. I definitely haven’t forgotten about it. It’s only half completed, but coming along well. Results should be posted during the latter half of March.

This is a big week for Oscar predicting. No precursors are greater or more important than the Producers Guild and Screen Actors Guild awards. By the end of the weekend we’ll know where we’re at when it comes to the Best Picture and acting races.
