Who Could Win "Best Picture" & Black Panther Box Office Reactions Raise your hand if you haven't yet seen Black Panther? No one? Good, then you all can listen to the latest episode of AwardsBlend, where co-hosts Sean O'Connell, Kevin McCarthy and Jake Hamilton kick off their weekly film-geek discussion with a breakdown of Ryan Coogler's Marvel masterwork, then lay out their personal Top 5 Marvel movies to see if Black Panther makes the cut. From there, the guys dive into a discussion on the Best Picture race. With roughly a week to go until the Academy Awards are handed out on March 4, Sean, Jake and Kevin talk about the films that they think still legitimately have a shot at winning Best Picture. Yes, there are nine nominees. But it really only feels like three movies hold out hope of leaving the Oscars with a Best Picture statue tucked under their proverbial arm.
When the shogun of harlem turns his neighborhood into a war zone, kung-fu student “Bruce” Leroy Green is torn between his pacifist nature and his need to keep his loved ones safe, and maybe pick up a “paint brush” along the way. Joe welcomes Ray Gradner back to the show to discuss Barry Gordy’s The Last Dragon to celebrate Black History month and the new release of Marvel’s Black Panther (No spoilers here). The guys get into how they first discovered this hidden gem, censored subtitles, affection for a movie dying after childhood, black standups doing white people voices, white stereotypes, confidence, cast members no longer with us, mistaken identities, what’s in the tank, friends who don’t call you back, quiet confidence, sibling envy, and the Harlem Nights effect. Sho’nuff. Support the podcast with 5 star ratings and positive reviews on Apple Podcasts, donate money at www.patreon.com/wordsalad, and tell your friends about us. We appreciate it!
