Terry of RLTerryReelview.com, where we ask him about the “favorite” of each category and which scripts impressed him most as a screenwriter & screenwriting professor. Ryan is also a prolific film critic, writing daily reviews on his website, and you can follow him @RLTerry1 on Twitter. After our interview with Ryan, we dive into our usual format for these two category overviews. We discuss each nominee, argue why they’ll win, argue why they’ll lose, and then we rank the 5 nominees as we see them at the end of the episode. Also Mike finally delivers some fuller book reports on the source materials Mike1 dared him to read for the Adapted Screenplay category. We continue our ongoing discussion of Best Picture and other categories that are up for grabs via our screenplay arguments here, and Mike1 drops a bunch more stats into our brains from his research. If you enjoyed this episode, do check out our previous category overview of Best Actress with Brandon & Joey of Academy Queens. We plan to complete this series over the next two weeks with guests for Best Supporting Actress, Director, and then we hope, with more guests for the two actors & of course, Best Picture. So please stay tuned. As always, we wanna know your thoughts on either of these Screenplay categories. Join the conversation on our social media, and do send us your categories, nominations, & winners for the upcoming MMO’s.

We discuss Best Actress with Joey Gentile & Brandon Stanwyck of Academy Queens. Starting with last year’s race between Close & Colman, we compare recent history to Oscars history as we break down our latest best actress five & Renee’s early lead. What Is This Episode? - Top of Show BREAKING DOWN BEST ACTRESS W/ ACADEMY QUEENS: Laying the Groundwork for a Battle/2018 Rankings- 3:06 Close Campaign vs Colman Campaign - 8:47 “It’s Her Time”, Narratives, and Academy Politicking - 11:34 He Actually Says “Dollar Store Jessica Lange” - 14:10 Close/Colman’s Historical Similarities - 19:01 2018’s Similarities/Impact on 2019’s Best Actress Race - 19:54 Is RZ a Runaway Train? - 21:!4 Academy Queens Weigh in on Zellweger’s Performance - 25:11 Liza, Backlash, and Can Controversy Hurt The Performance - 28:20 AQ’s Biggest Snubs - 30:01 The Academy Queens Rank Their 2019 REAL Best Actress Noms - 31:22 TRADITIONAL MMO CATEGORY REVIEW FORMAT: Snubs - 33:03 Cynthia Erivo: Why She’ll Win - 37:32 Why She Won’t - 41:28 Scarlett Johansson: Why She’ll Win - 43:25 Why She Won’t - 47:10 Saoirse Ronan: Why She’ll Win - 51:26 Why She Won’t - 54:12 Charlize Theron - Why She’ll Win - 55:41 Why She Won’t - 58:57 Renee Zellweger Why She’ll Win - 1:01:16 Why She Won’t - 1:03:52 Ranking The Noms - 1:07:05 Your Homework/Our Socials - 1:10:59 What’s Next From MMO/Words of Wisdom/Academy Queen’s Socials - 1:11:47 Brandon & Joey have an encyclopedic knowledge of Oscar history, and they prove as much with every season of their podcast, Academy Queens. If you’re a fan of our retrospectives, if you enjoy these category overview pods, or if you just want a great podcast about film history with hosts who know their shit, then you need to subscribe to Academy Queens. Now the Mikes of Oscar and the Academy Queens have been friendly on film twitter for awhile. But that doesn’t mean we can’t have our squabbles, and as you know, our chief squabbler is Mike1, who loved last year’s Glenn Close performance from The Wife. The Academy Queens did not, favouring Olivia Colman & relishing it when she won. So of course, we needed to start here in a bit of an Oscar Race look back. Brandon & Joey state their case on why Colman over Close. They cite Oscar history, review the performances, recap the race, & reference some long standing Glenn / Meryl beef to complete our first look back segment. Then we dive into this year’s category & interview them on their feelings of Zellweger’s early lead, if it reminds them of any previous years, and who got snubbed from their top 5 lists. After our collaboration with the Academy Queens, Mike & I complete our traditional category overview format. We go through each of the 5 nominees and tell you why they’ll win AND why they’ll lose. So if you’re pulling for an actress who’s name doesn’t rhyme with L-wegger, then there’s hope! We give you that in this overview before ranking the noms the way we see em.’ Do make sure you subscribe to Academy Queens & start listening to all 3 seasons of their terrific Oscar pod. You can follow them @academy_queens on twitter, and if you’d be so kind, do please take a few moments to rate both our shows 5 stars on Apple Podcasts. Finally, and as always, we wanna hear your thoughts & your Best Actress rankings. We’re @MMandOscar on Twitter, and we are on Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, and Gmail. You can subscribe / rate / review / like / share / & listen to us on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Google Play, Tune In, Spotify, and just about wherever you might listen. We’re Mike, Mike, & Oscar, and we’re making awards season year round, without the stuffiness. Thanks for listening.
