Award for excellence in sound mixing in film
POPULARITY
This week, Gene HackMarch continues with an outstanding acting showdown between two of the all-time greats of American screen acting, as our man Gene stands tete-a-tete with Denzel down in the briny deep with the fate of the world hanging in the balance. It's 1995's Crimson Tide, directed by Tony Scott, featuring script punch-up from Quentin Tarantino, and starring Denzel Washington, Gene Hackman, Viggo Mortensen, James Gandolfini, George Dzundza, Matt Craven, Danny Nucci, Steve Zahn and Daniel von Bargen. A naval submarine thriller of the highest order, it's the first of five collaborations between Tony Scott and Denzel Washington, and while it's easily the high water mark of the bunch it's also plain to see why they would be eager to re-team time and time again to try to recapture this magic. The acting showdown at the heart of this movie's conflict is its greatest spectacle, and while the movie got shut out at the Oscars come awards season, it was nominated for Best Film Editing, Best Sound Mixing and Best Sound Editing, losing all three. Womp womp. Plus: Hayley's been to the cinema and is back with a theatrical field report on the new Bong, Mickey 17! And J Mo is hooked on The Traitors. If you'd like to watch the film before listening along to our conversation, Crimson Tide is available to stream on Disney+. Other works discussed on this episode include Snowpiercer, Okja, The Host, Poor Things, Mississippi Burning, The Rock, The Domino Principle, Big Brother, The Mole, Josie and the Pussycats, The Hunt For Red October, The Pelican Brief, Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning: Part One, The Taking of Pelham 123 (2009), Unstoppable, and Deja Vu among others. Gene HackMarch rolls on next week with 1974's The Conversation, though you can bet the Tony Scott talk with continue as we will surely be talking more about its 90s spiritual sequel (and Crimson Tide follow-up) Enemy of the State as well. The Conversation is currently streaming on the Criterion Channel, while Enemy of the State can be found on Disney+. Until then, we'll see you at the movies!!

Then we move on to Purple Rain (1984). Finally we review Dreamgirls (2006).The Wiz is a 1978 American musical fantasy adventure film directed by Sidney Lumet. Adapted from the 1974 Broadway musical, the film reimagines the classic children's novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum with an African American cast. Dorothy, a 24-year-old teacher from Harlem, is magically transported to the urban-fantasy Land of Oz. On her travels seeking help from the mysterious Wiz, Dorothy befriends a Scarecrow, a robot called Tin Man, and a Cowardly Lion.The Wiz was theatrically released the following year on October 24, 1978, to critical and commercial failure. The film received generally negative reviews from critics, with many unfavorably comparing the film to its source material. Some critics criticized the casting of Ross as Dorothy, while others criticized the direction of Lumet, who was considered a poor choice for directing a musical. Despite its initial failure, critics have become more favorable in recent years, and it has become a cult classic among audiences, Ross's fanbase, Jackson's fanbase and Oz enthusiasts.Purple Rain is a 1984 American romantic rock musical drama film scored by and starring Prince in his acting debut.

Adapted from the 1981 Broadway musical of the same name, Dreamgirls is a film à clef, a work of fiction taking strong inspiration from the history of the Motown record label and its superstar act the Supremes.

Inception is a 2010 science fiction action film[4][5][6] written and directed by Christopher Nolan, who also produced the film with Emma Thomas, his wife. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio as a professional thief who steals information by infiltrating the subconscious of his targets. He is offered a chance to have his criminal history erased as payment for the implantation of another person's idea into a target's subconscious.[7] The ensemble cast includes Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Elliot Page,[a] Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Tom Berenger, Dileep Rao, and Michael Caine. After the 2002 completion of Insomnia, Nolan presented to Warner Bros. a written 80-page treatment for a horror film envisioning "dream stealers," based on lucid dreaming.[8] Deciding he needed more experience before tackling a production of this magnitude and complexity, Nolan shelved the project and instead worked on 2005's Batman Begins, 2006's The Prestige, and 2008's The Dark Knight.[9] The treatment was revised over six months and was purchased by Warner in February 2009.[10] Inception was filmed in six countries, beginning in Tokyo on June 19 and ending in Canada on November 22.[11] Its official budget was $160 million, split between Warner Bros. and Legendary.[12] Nolan's reputation and success with The Dark Knight helped secure the film's US$100 million in advertising expenditure. Inception's premiere was held in London on July 8, 2010; it was released in both conventional and IMAX theaters beginning on July 16, 2010.[13][14] Inception grossed over $837 million worldwide, becoming the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2010. Considered one of the best films of the 2010s,[15] Inception won four Oscars (Best Cinematography, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, Best Visual Effects) and was nominated for four more (Best Picture, Best Original Screenplay, Best Art Direction, Best Original Score) at the 83rd Academy Awards.

It did, however, win 2013 Las Vegas Film Critics Society Awards, for Best Action Film. It also won Critics' Choice Awards for Best Action Film and Mark Wahlberg won, Best Actor in an Action Movie. Plot:Divers being pulled out of the water, asked questions. We watch men training, probably to become seals. Men working together, needing medical help, trainers training, some guys ringing the bell and leaving. Finally they're shown graduating, stating how they're brothers singing silent night. Based on a true story. A helicopter flies over a large basin, Mark Wahlbergs Marcus Luttrell bloody and being worked on. The black hawk lands at an air base, with a voice over about survival and pushing ourselves into dark corners. He speaks of fights as they work to revive him and a quick cut to three days earlier. Barracks living is shown, pictures, drawings, family, siblings, a picture of Ron Burgandy. Michael gets an email about a wedding present, a horse, so he goes to Luttrell for advice. After making sure the rest of the squad is up, a morning run. Axelson is messaging a woman, as the others run. Murphy wins by one second, a discussion of punishment and they decide to shave Dietzs head. Shane is anxious to go on an op. They're briefing about getting their targets, Shah, and waypoints named after beers. It flashes back and forth between briefing and the Afghans taking a man they think they helped Americans, and behead him. They finish the briefing with a lot of moving parts. The team is eating as Deitz tries to get help choosing a color with his wife/girlfriend. Patton enters into newbie intro: and does a hilarious dance routine. As they vote to push him through, he has to recite a SEAL shanty, as they are also shown preparing for the op. As he finishes, they're in the choppers heading towards the op. S: -Right off the bat... I love the camaraderie with these guys. The whole head shaving thing, the back and forth, "You are Mike Murphy"... Thats history. Legend even.-I like pacing of the story, already. It pulls you in, makes you feel part of the fun side and the "military" side.-Love the SEAL shanty The SEALS deploy down the rope and take positons. They confirm comms check, and move out from Budweiser. They hit Miller. Corona. Heineken. They're on a mountaintop, setting position, and their last way point, malt liquor. As they settle in, their AC130 cover departs. They move to phase 2 of the op, move to another positon to dig in and see the village better. They settle in and ID their target. Rick James, Bitch. Though they don't have comms, Deitz is to fall back and make it work, they're too exposed to take the shot where they were. Luttrell and Murphy discuss the Arabic horse, again. Axe is taking photos, drawing of the village. They rest. As they rest, Deitz hears a bells, and goats moving near them. It wakes the others. Then the shepherds appear and move though them... eventually they step on Luttrell. They come out and take them. They find a radio on one of them. They don't have coms and they're struggling on what to do. They decide to use an unsecured-satellite phone as Murphy calls it a cursed OP. Patton answers the phone, and asks for the skipper, so he goes to get him. But they lose the connection before they can speak. Murphy suggest 3 options, let them go, tie them up and go, eliminate them. They argue that if they let them go, Shah will leave too, but Luttrell doesn't want to kill them. Axe argues that Shah killed 20 marines last week, and its their job to stop him. They argue and Murphy finally comes up with a plan that the OP is compromised, they're going to release them and head up the mountain to get comms. They release them, and one kids starts heading down in a hurry, they start to move to the mountain top. As they move, Luttrell keeps looking back. The boy is shown quickly moving down the mountain, while the SEALS are shown slowly climbing up. They get to a false summit, and still can't get comms. Axe tells them this is a bad spot. Kristensen calls his commanding officer, but doesn't receive help. Axe sees movement, and you can start to hear voices. They shoulder and search, but nothing concrete. Murphy goes too recon, and sees about 20 dudes on the ridge above him. Goes back and tells Axe he's about to get contacted. They prepare for a fight. Luttrell sees the first one, and takes the shot. S:-Just their ragged breathing makes me nervous.-They seem to have a lot of low/angled shots... keeps it grounded/real.-I like the use of slow motion showing them going up the mountain and the kid running down. Luttrell sees the first one, and takes the shot. They're engaged, and move through the woods, taking down targets. Deitzs is shot in the hand, then Axe in the shoulder. One jumps on Axe, who he fights off, and kills. The taliban opens up with a belt fed gun, right as Luttrell says left is good, it's not, they push right and stay low. Axe moves and is hit in the leg, Lutrell is hit in the back/butt area. They're taking random bullets, foot, arm, they keep falling back. They jump off a cliff and violently roll down a hill as they're spot was hit with an RPG. They gather themselves, and check themselves. Murphy is shot in the foot, Deitz takes another to the shoulder. Deitz falls and Luttrell drags him. They recoup in some rocks, Luttrell shoves mud in Deitz leg. Murphy packs mud in his stomach. Deitz starts to lose it. The taliban move in and they move down more and jump off another cliff, and another violent roll down, but Luttrell dropped Deitz above. He's shown staring at Shah. They discuss how they can get Deitz, and how they can take the taliban on flat ground. The locals are going though all of Deitzs pockets, curiously. The remaining SEALS resolve to go back up and get him. One of the taliban pulls the colors swatch Deitz was looking at earlier, crumples it and throws it away. Murphy says he's going to make the satellite call, and motions towards a wide open rock, which Luttrell protests against. Murphy gives Luttrell his extra mags, they talk, and he tells him he's never out of the fight. He starts to move right to the rock as Axe and Luttrell cover him. Murphy makes it to the rock, bullets flying around him, and he calls the base for air support. He's peppered with bullets as Deitz looks at the crumbled paper, Murphy stands and is shot in the back several times, and falls. Deitz stares at the paper and his eyes shut, Murphy slumps. S:-Why doesn't Deitz have a silencer?-They're getting hit with 7.62 think it would do a bit more damage compared to their 556.-Jesus, the terror these guys must've felt, just trying to survive.-The tumbles down the mountains. All the sounds of the bullets whizzing and hitting off stuff, no wonder they were nominated for an academy award. Should've won. Damn.-My god, the way they just go over Deitz... picking through his stuff.-My God that was fucking emotional As the other team is about to head to help, they're grounded since there aren't apaches for cover. Axe and Luttrell regroup, and they discuss their situation. The attack continues. Kristensen in the chinook hears the apaches aren't coming and ask the pilots to get them on the ground. Axe and Luttrell are separated, but they see the chinooks and scream in happiness. Patton is about to be the first one out and he's overjoyed... When an RPG is launched, and hits the chinook, and it crashes. The second one pulls out without deploying help under heavy fire. They watch it leave and sink. Axe takes two more shots, is wheezing, and can't stand. He's surrounded and only has his pistol. He crawls to a tree, shooting until it locks back, he breathes a few final breaths, and watches a taliban shoot at him, until one gets him in the head. His head drops, then drops his pistol. Luttrell is looking for Axe, and tumbles down the mountain. He hides as the apaches check the area, but since they see no movement, and they are low on fuel, they head back to base. It fades to a sunset as Luttrell realizes he's on his own. He comes to, and starts to self asses. He pushes a compound fracture back into his shin. He then gets up and starts to walk. He finally comes across a creek and dives in. He comes up and there are men watching him, he threatens them with a grenade, but they seems friendly. When they hear shouting coming from the hills, the man gestures to help him. They pull him out and carry him to a village. Everyone is staring. In the house, the man shows him on a map where they are, while another man seems angry and is shouting. Luttrell pulls the grenade again, asking if he's taliban, they arguing back and forth. The second man leaves, and Lutrell gives him a map to take to the American base. A man sets out on foot. Men are going through the forrest looking for him; they arrive in the village and find Luttrell. They start to drag him to the same log used to cut a mans head off earlier...As he raises the machete to cut his head off, a gun fires and it's the man that helped aiming at the taliban. He says the American is his guest, and for them to leave. He asks if he will die for an American? Threatening him. He threatens they'll all be slaughtered, as the villagers with AKs watch them leave. He asks the boy for a knife, but the boy brings a goose. The man gets it for him. He uses it to get the shrapnel out of his leg, then passing out. They clean and clothe him. -I realize some of this is dramatized. BUT, my God. Just the unwillingness to give up.-Walking with a compound fracture to your shin... That's got to be impossible, right?-Again, the fear of being brought to that village, no one speaks english.-My god, recognizing that log and the blood on it...-Talk about tough as fuck, taking out that shrapnel with just the knife? The villagers are milling about and seem nervous. The taliban is showing in the woods gearing up, and the villagers wait. They wake him, bring him some water and food. As they talk, the attack begins, the room exploding. Luttrells letter has arrived to the base, and they send the calvary. Luttrell and the friend move, and they're separated, they find Luttrell, and the friend finds one of the leaders, struggles with him, and shoots him. Luttrell is getting beat, and choked, then the boy brings him the knife, which he uses to kill the guy. As the taliban begins to enter the town, the apaches, and AC130s show up, and drive them back. Ground forces move in, red smoke is popped, and they blackhawk lands. They search building to building, they find him and confirm it's him, and take him out. He wants the friend to come, but they don't let him. He thanks them, hugs the boy, and they go. We're basically back to the beginning of the movie, the voice over mentions multiple gunshot wounds. Wahlberg voice overs about brave men fighting and dying, building a reputation he has to uphold. But he died up on that mountain. That a part of him will be on that mountain that died with his brothers. But that part survived, and that no matter what, you're never out of the fight. His heartbeat starts, and it fades to black. Text appears: Dedicated to the men of Operation Red Wings, pictures of the real seal team, and the men who died, which we'll repeat after this.TEXT:The Afghan villagers who proctected Marcus did so out of duty to their 2,000 year old code of honor, known as (PASH-TUN-WALI) Pashtunwali.It requires a tribe to undertake the responsibility fo safeguarding an individual against his enemies and protecting him at all costsThese brave men and women still thrive in the harsh mountains of Afghanistan and their fight against the taliban continues... It ends with a picture of Marcus Luttrell and Mohammad Gulab in 2010, laughing and huging. Fallen soldiers:S-Chris J. ScherkenbachC-Michael L. RussellT-Stephen C. ReichT-Marcus V. MurallesS-Kip A.

As if filling out an Oscar ballot wasn't challenging enough, 2021 has a ton of rule changes with regards to how the Academy will be voting. Most notably for us here at Dolby, the Best Sound Editing and Best Sound Mixing categories have been combined into one: Best Sound. Today Glenn sits down with Teri Dorman, Kevin Collier, and Scott Millan — the current Board of Governors of the Sound Branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences — to discuss the rule changes, the controversies these changes stirred up, and — perhaps most importantly — what criteria the Academy might use to vote on this new category. Complicating matters further is the fact that most audiences will be experiencing these films at home, not in a cinema with a state-of-the-art sound system. Whether you're an Oscar voter or an Oscar viewer who wants to do well in your annual office pool, this episode should make filling out your ballot just a little bit easier. "I'd like to think that what we do has been treated in a way that the intent will come across, whether you're listening on a home system that's average or whether you're listening to it in the cinema. And I realize this is very 'pie-in-the-sky,' but I think there is an element that potentially can transcend what it's being played on and hopefully that'll come through. It's something that we all think about and probably toss and turn at night a little bit over because this is going to be a different year." — Kevin Collier, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Board of Governors, Sound Branch Please subscribe to Sound + Image Lab: The Dolby Institute Podcast https://linktr.ee/dolbyinstitute (wherever you get your podcasts).

We discuss the differences between sound editing and mixing, the fear of meeting your heroes (and the Beastie Boys destroying the narrative by being awesome), the consolidation of Best Sound Mixing and Best Sound Editing to just Best Sound starting at the Oscars this year and how working on a live show documentary compares to his usual work and much more.

As a large-scale historical film, 1917 creates an intense and realistic soundscape of World War I. In this episode, we talk with the sound team, nominated for Best Sound Editing and Best Sound Mixing, about the challenges and fun experiences that arose from this film. In part 1, we talk with ADR and dialogue supervisor Rachael Tate about blending the unique amount of sound coverage into the film, trying to work with minimum ADR, and making sure that even background chatter is historically realistic. In part 2, production sound mixer Stuart Wilson shares challenges with mic placements, the importance of on-set sound for creating realistic tension, and the trust and communication among the production.
In this episode, sights are set away from Hollywood as Chris and Martin approach films not in the English language. For Martin the classic French car movie Taxi, while Chris dives into the world of Initial-D. But first, Ford vs Ferrari (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1950186/) is in the news yet again with BAFTA nominations for cinematography, editing and sound AND OSCAR NOMS OMG for Best Pic, Best Film Editing, Best Sound Editing and Best Sound Mixing! F1 TV (https://f1tv.formula1.com/en/) have released a new documentary series, F2: Chasing the Dream, a multi-part documentary series looking into the world of up and coming drivers in F2 (subscription only, sadly). The original Bullitt Mustang, as driven by Steve McQueen has sold at auction (https://uk.motor1.com/news/392285/bullitt-mustang-auction-3-point-4-million) for $3.4m. For this episode's reviews, we watch a pair of non-English films. Martin revisits Taxi (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0152930/) while Chris shuns the live action version of Initial-D (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0439630/) to go with Initial-D 1st Stage (https://www.funimation.com/shows/initial-d/) from the original Anime. In this week's online highlights, Martin picked the fantastic Harry’s Garage Porsche Carrera GT film (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWbjvcDML7A) while Chris has been so deep into all things Japanese for this episode, he had to pick this documentary from Driftworks: Outsiders (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dZjpFYlYdw8).

Hacksaw Ridge is a 2016 biographical war drama film directed by Mel Gibson and written by Andrew Knight and Robert Schenkkan, based on the 2004 documentary The Conscientious Objector. SCENE: Battle Scene One (https://youtu.be/nD7aI9ZvVKk) The film focuses on the World War II experiences of Desmond Doss, an American pacifist combat medic who, as a Seventh-day Adventist Christian, refused to carry or use a weapon or firearm of any kind. Doss became the first conscientious objector to be awarded the Medal of Honor, for service above and beyond the call of duty during the Battle of Okinawa. Andrew Garfield stars as Doss, with Sam Worthington, Luke Bracey, Teresa Palmer, Hugo Weaving, Rachel Griffiths, and Vince Vaughn in supporting roles. The film was released in the United States on November 4, 2016, grossing $175.3 million worldwide and received largely positive reviews, with Gibson's direction and Garfield's performance earning notable praise. Hacksaw Ridge was chosen by the American Film Institute as one of its top ten Movies of the Year,[6and has received numerous awards and nominations. The film received six Oscar nominations at the 89th Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor for Garfield and Best Sound Editing, winning the awards for Best Sound Mixing and Best Film Editing.
Whiplash is a 2014 American drama film written and directed by Damien Chazelle. It depicts the relationship between an ambitious jazz drumming student (Miles Teller) and an abusive instructor (J. K. Simmons). Not My Tempo - Scene: https://youtu.be/xDAsABdkWSc Whiplash premiered in competition in the US Dramatic Category at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival on January 16, 2014, as the festival's opening film. Sony Pictures Worldwide acquired the international distribution rights. The film opened in limited release domestically in the United States and Canada on October 10, 2014, gradually expanding to over 500 screens and finally closing on March 26, 2015. The film grossed $49 million on a production budget of $3.3 million. The film received widespread critical acclaim, with particular praise for Simmons's performance and Chazelle's screenplay. At the 87th Academy Awards, Whiplash won Best Film Editing, Best Sound Mixing, and Best Supporting Actor for Simmons, and was also nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Picture.
The Album: The Dreamgirls soundtrack (2006) Former LA Times Editor and Out Magazine's Director of Culture and Entertainment Tre'vell Anderson, joined us to talk Jennifer Hudson and the Dreamgirls OST. Dreamgirls won two Academy Awards - one for Best Sound Mixing, the other, Best Supporting Actress for Jennifer Hudson's star-making portrayal of Effie White. The single disc-version of the soundtrack spent two weeks at #1 on the Billboard 200 and was nominated for the 2008 Grammy Award for Best Compilation Soundtrack Album. One of the songs, "Love You I Do" won the Grammy Award for Best Song Written for a Motion Picture or Television. The soundtrack, a certified banger, and Tre'vell's personal heat rock, was certified platinum. A fan of Jennifer Hudson's since American Idol Season 3 (his favorite), the film and soundtrack resonated with him because of the all too familiar narrative of the most talented person in the room having to contend with implicit bias preventing them from living their best life. We talked about the glory of Jennifer's journey from losing American Idol to winning at the Oscars, the difference between singers and sangers, Detroit vs. Chicago as a backdrop for the film, and what it sounds like when a Cadillac commercial get's "Pat Booned" (an Oliver Wang original saying). Why did the film propel Jennifer Hudson to the stardom possibly meant for Beyonce (AT THAT TIME). Who knew Eddie Murphy had this sort of vocal range? Who's version of "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" was better: the original J.H. or the new J.H.? Tre'vell helped us answer those questions and more!

Sean answers your Marvel questions!0:30 Brett HeierWhat are your top three favorite marvel cinematic universe characters? What are your top three marvel comics characters?Also, have you seen sorry for your loss? It's Elisabeth Olsen's show and it's really good.3:03 Woo S! KimNo matter what the results are and what the fallout of “Avengers: End Game” the Marvel Cinematic Universe will be very different regardless of who lives and who dies. Even without Fantastic Four and X-Men potentially coming home the MCU by the end of this year hopefully; the MCU isn't going to look the same nor is it going to feel the same as the universe that began in 2008. Lastly, I think coincidentally this is the best time for Marvel's First Family and Mutants to be introduced to further the point that the MCU that hardcore geeks and casual audiences knew after Thanos won't entirely remain, what say you, Sean?6:54 Woo S! KimI mentioned on an earlier Q&A a few weeks back how Marvel is reintroducing the Fantastic Four in a comics standpoint, could Marvel Television and or FOX quietly ending/wrapping up “The Gifted” and “Legion” just be both companies readying themselves for the merger because to be fair much like the Netflix series and the Hulu, they take place in the MCU but adjacently and from what I hear these FOX Marvel shows are kind the same when it comes to X-Men so whether the merger goes through or not creatively these FOX Marvel shows could conceivably go a couple more seasons, what are your thoughts Sean?9:20 Woo S! KimSean may you please take a moment and explain what the differences are between IMAX with laser and IMAX without laser?12:45 Mookie JohnsonIn your opinion, did the Avengers Superbowl trailer end with Cap grabbing his old shield, the new shield referenced in Homecoming, or a new shield forged in Wakanda since they have plenty of vibranium to remake his shield?14:40 Derek BeebeDid you see Glass, and if so, what did you think of it? Particularly the third act. (He said vaguely, to avoid spoiling anyone).14:48 Derek BeebeWhen the Disney/Fox deal is finally a done deal, will you and Paul grace us with an episode about Fant-Four-Stick?16:53 Derek BeebeWhat did you think the FOX TV movies of Generation X (1996) and Nick Fury (1998)? 17:27 Derek BeebeAre you watching The Gifted? I'm afraid it never grabbed me and I dropped it after the first season.18:05 Robert ReinekeSean, would you care to play Vegas oddsmaker? Please provide a percentage chance of winning for the following Oscar contenders. Avengers: Infinity War to win Best Visual Effects. Black Panther to win Best Production Design. Black Panther to win Best Sound Editing. Black Panther to win Best Sound Mixing. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse to win Best Animated Feature. Black Panther to win Best Original Score. All the Stars from Black Panther to win Best Original Score. Black Panther to win Best Costume Design. And, Black Panther to win Best Picture.32:07 Alex WardThis is a tricky one, but aside from what we've already seen, what are five moments you think are most likely to happen in Endgame? Professor Hulk, Cap dying, etc. (And feel free to tiptoe around things you're more knowledgeable about due to leaks)38:54 Alex WardAre you a fan of Yorgos Lanthimos at all? If so, do you think there's any place for him in the MCU? Maybe a super awkward Fantastic Four movie?39:22 AlexWhat do you think of the recent casting of Harry Lloyd as Charles Xavier for the last season of Legion? Do you think its kind of strange to have two live-action versions of the same iconic character for television and film existing concurrently with each other? Last time I can recall this being a thing was the case with Smallvile and Superman Returns where Brandon Routh was playing the Last Son Of Krypton on film at the same time Tom Welling was playing a different version on television. Its kind of odd to me. especially considering both the third season of Legion and Dark Phoenix come out this year in June. prior to this news, I was under the impression there was an X -embargo(similar to the Bat-embargo) which prohibited the use of A-list X-men characters like Wolverine for the television show but now with the casting of the third live-action Professor X before even the MCU has had the chance to touch the character I wonder what happened behind-the-scenes.41:12 Nolan WildeHi Sean. I'd been considering this and the TV spot may have confirmed it but I'm not sure the World knows the whole story of the snap. The events of Infinity War happened very quickly and it didn't seem the Avengers informed anyone what was happening.Do you think there will be consequences as this is partly why the Sokovia accords were brought in and if the World finds out that the Avengers chose to act alone maybe it's possible they have been outcast?44:22 Mookie JohnsonIf the Doctor Strange movie with Nightmare does well, do you think that creates an opportunity for Blade to return to the big screen?45:11 David RosenHey Sean and Friends, hope all is well! Do you think that End Game will set up any of the Disney+ limited series? Do you think the movie will make it clear that some of the characters' stories will continue on? Also on the subject of the limited series, I believe I read just today (Tuesday) that Chris Evans might be getting a chance to sit in the director's chair for one or several limited series episodes. My first guess was that it would most likely be for the Sam and Bucky series. Perhaps maybe this is what was meant by one of the Russo bros when he “We haven't seen the last of Chris Evans.” What do you think about this news/rumor and what do you director Chris Evans could bring to an episode of the “Sam and Bucky Show” that maybe other directors couldn't?48:23 David RosenHey Sean, You did a great job with the shot by shot breakdown of the End Game superbowl spot! You talked a lot about the imagine, but didn't really say anything about the voiceover from Cap. What does his line, “Some people move on. But not us.” tell you about his/the team's mentality in this movie? What do you think “moving on” is referring to? The fact that hat they lost the battle with Thanos? That their loved ones are gone? That they're in a “new world”? Something else? Do you see this line as proof that the Avengers are likely going to be the aggressors in this movie?50:48 David RosenI think I had a little bit of a different interpretation about the shot of Liberty Island and all the boats around it, than I think you did. What I gathered was that with half the population (and perhaps more from collateral damage) gone, society in New York likely broke down and is in a state of anarchy and chaos and a number of people decided to “move” to Liberty Island and take refuge there, away from some of the chaos that might be occurring in the city. What do you think about this? Is that shot meant to suggest more than just what we are shown, that perhaps society is in a state of complete disarray, or just that a large number of boats, without captains, managed to float and get stuck at the island?53:02 Jeremy EdenA couple Christmases ago, my brother got me a copy of Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which I really enjoyed. It was a fun mashup of two universes I've always loved. We've seen some other strange universe crossovers in comic books before (JLA/Power Rangers, X-Men/Star Trek, DC/Looney Tunes, etc.) Apart from a straight up MCU/DC crossover, which bizarre universe mashup (either real or one you make up) would you like to see make its way into the MCU, keeping in mind that nobody is REALLY asking for these to happen?54:38 David RosenSo I realized after rewatching the first End Game trailer that the Avengers compound seems to be lying right flush on a large body of water. As far as I know, aside from maybe a few lakes and the Hudson River, upstate New York doesn't really have any large bodies of water. I went back to watch the “training” scene in Antman, where they show the overhead exterior shot of the compound, and it didn't seem like the compound was sitting on any large body of water, and actually also looked entirely different from the one in the End Game trailer. I know that sometimes designs change between movies, but this seemed like a pretty big change. Ever since the first trailer premiered, one of the thoughts I had regarding Scott was that after getting out of the quantum realm, being in San Francisco, he would have had to then make a cross country drive in his van to the Avengers compound, perhaps even knot fully knowing where it is. But a west coast compound that is public knowledge might alleviate this problem. Do you think this might actually be a different Avengers compound that we're being shown in the trailer, perhaps one on the West Coast, setting up a West Coast Avengers?57:33 Seth GoslinSean, with the upcoming Black Widow film taking place before Avengers, would you like it to take place before she joined SHIELD or after? Would you prefer it to expand on an event previously referenced like Budapest or when Clint spared her or her encounter with the Winter Soldier, or would you like it to be outside of any previous references?59:37 David RosenHey Sean, I just saw the article you posted about the failed pilot order for a Marvel Television all female TV series. This was the first I heard about this, but did you hear about this previously? Do you think this was the attempt at doing something with an all female cast that we've kept hearing and speculating about? If not, what do you think this non-order means, if anything, for future prospects of getting any kind of all female production?1:03:24 AlexIn addition to confirming once again that subsequent Deadpool films will retain the R-rating Bob Iger pointed out that other Disney films may potentially carry the R-rating in the future. This tidbit of information got my little noggin thinking: do you think Marvel will eventually do a R-rated film besides The-Merc-With-The-Mouth or do you think they'll only strictly do PG-13 films with Deadpool being the lone exception to the rule? And keep up the good work, man. You're doing a darn fine job.1:09:19 Michael Louis WeaselboyHey Sean I was just wondering who do you think will be the villain for Spiderman 3? And when do you think it will be released?1:12:18 AlexWe know that Star Wars exists in the MCU as a fictional property within the universe but how does nobody ever point out Nick Fury's uncanny resemblance to Mace Windu— who like Fury is played by Samuel motherf'ing Jackson? Does that mean only the original trilogy and sequel trilogy exist and the prequels never got made in the MCU or do you think like our world the Star Wars prequels do in fact exist and maybe Mace Windu is just played by a different actor in the MCU? Forgive me if you've received this type of question before but it just dawned on me.1:14:03 Daniel DavilaHey Sean I know I'm right on the deadline for this so I'll keep it short and sweet. Do you think the living tribunal, eternity, galactus, etc. can be major players in the mcu? Do you think they translate well to the big screen? Love your show thanks again!1:15:53 Brian WhiteHi Sean. I would like you to expand your thoughts and comments on the idea of a Young Avengers or Champions movie. As any of us long time comic readers know, the movies have taken their liberties even while giving homage to the original material and this has mostly been successful. But so far we've seen titles and characters that came from the comics even if they were presented uniquely. Your comments about how MCU Peter Parker and Shuri can form the Young Avengers or Champions , both being characters that have never been part of either suggests to me that the MCU can create original characters and teams. In Iron Man 3, Tony gifted his sidekick Harley Keener with a lot of tech. He could show up in his own version of Iron Man armor and join up too - maybe he's the Sam Alexander you've been foreseeing. Do you foresee the MCU originating characters? No doubt the comics will copy them if it does. Thanks!1:18:39 ChristofferCan you recommend some books about Marvel – the MCU in particular – and comic book history in general?1:20:18 AlexAvengers: Endgame spoiler question See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

With four nominations and zero wins, The Last Jedi was shut out of the Oscar celebration on Sunday night. And this would be the seventh Star Wars production in a row from Lucasfilm to be shut out from the annual awards - a streak now spanning 37 years. Since the last winner was Best Sound Mixing for The Empire Strikes Back, it makes a person wonder: How much might this have to do with Hollywood holding a grudge against Lucasfilm and George Lucas over the opening crawl that caused Lucas to pay a $25,000 fine and quit the Director's Guild?

In Episode 16 of movies imo, Ben, Brandon, and Daniel yell over each other about the 90th annual Academy Award nominations. Together they get to the bottom of the announcement's most pressing questions: Did Gary Oldman motorboat his way into the Best Actor field? Should the Academy compress Best Sound Editing and Best Sound Mixing into a single category? Even with its surprise Best Picture and Best Director nods, was PHANTOM THREAD still the biggest snub of the year? Ben damns DUNKIRK with faint praise, Daniel breathes a sigh of relief over Meryl's 21st nomination, and Brandon gives a chef's kiss to the Best Original Screenplay category.

Brett and Adam predict the Oscar nominations for Best Sound Editing and Best Sound Mixing (yes, there's a difference). But first they discuss the allegations against Harvey Weinstein and the Academy mulling over new rules regarding films from streaming services. Finally they dig for the secrets of humanity with the brilliant new "Blade Runner 2049."
Lawrence of Arabia was nominated for ten Oscars at the 35th Academy Awards in 1963; it won seven in total: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Score, Best Cinematography (Colour), Best Art Direction (Colour), Best Film Editing and Best Sound Mixing. It also won the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture - Drama and the BAFTA Awards for Best Film and Outstanding British Film. n 1991, Lawrence of Arabia was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" and selected for preservation in the United States Library of Congress National Film Registry. In 1998, the American Film Institute placed it 5th on their 100 Years...100 Movies list, and 7th on their 2007 updated list. In 1999, the British Film Institute named the film the 3rd greatest British film of all time. But is it any good? To find out, my wonderful wife Tiffany and I watched it (all of it) and here bring you 9 minutes of spoiler-free discussion if you've not seen it, followed by lots of spoiler-filled chat if you have. Something for everyone! Listen and love!

Hollywood er på den anden ende, og Hjørnet følger trop, for det er... (vent på det)... OSCARTID!!! Yup, for ottende år i træk har Hjørnet stablet en episk Oscaropvarmning på benene til jer. Casper, Jesper, Brie og Oscar-noob'en Niels gnasker sig møjsommeligt gennem samtlige kategorier for at finde ud af, hvilke film, der vinder i hvilke kategorier og det er absolut ikke let i år. Ja, La La Land ligger uden tvivl i føretrøjen, men hvilke af dens virvar af nomineringer, kan den forvandle til vindere? Kan Moonlight snigløbe sig til nogle priser? Og hvor store chancer har de danske Oscarbud? Alt (og vi mener ALT) bliver vendt og drejet i løbet af episodens ca. 4½ time. Som sædvanligt har Jesper set nærmere på Akademiets Sci-Tech Awards og Niels har udnyttet sin kærlighed for dårlige film til at se nærmere på årets Razzie-nomineringer.

Part of this year's more diversified Academy Award nominations, Ai-Ling Lee and Mildred Iatrou Morgan have been nominated for Best Sound Editing for La LA Land; becoming the first all-female team nominated in the category (Ai-Ling is also nominated for Best Sound Mixing along with Andy Nelson and Steve A. Morrow). As sound supervisors and designers on the project, their job was to lead the teams that brought every sound you hear. With a heavy emphasis on using production sound versus pre-recorded mixes of music; the performances in the film often feel more organic and real, not so decentered from the overall sound of the narrative as is customary with the genre. This approach informs every step of the audio process; a fine balance of imaginary realism, with key components of audio that connect to the makeup of our everyday living.
