Living in a post-Venice/Telluride/Toronto world means it's time get serious about our Oscar predictions and that's just what we're doing this week. On episode 307 of the AwardsWatch podcast, AW Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson is joined by Executive Editor Ryan McQuade and Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello to look at what shined at the fests, what lost its luster and the introduction of a new bombshell in the villa. In our conversation, we begin with the top winners at Venice and with Alexander Payne's contentious jury, including how Jim Jarmusch's Father Mother Sister Brother could factor in and if Benny Safdie's Silver Lion Best Director win for The Smashing Machine was what that film needed. Next we move to Telluride, where Hamnet was the most-liked film (while we still await the results of Michael's Telluride Blog polls of critics and non-critics) and how the Cannes winners held their ground. Moving to Toronto and Hamnet's People's Choice Award win keeps it at as a top tier contender and we talk about some films, like 1st runner-up Frankenstein, fared better at TIFF than it did at Venice and Telluride. Then we dive into Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another, which began screening last week. While Ryan and Sophia had the film at the top of their predictions list last month, I was the idiot who rashly dropped it out of my top 10. That mistake is corrected here and we talk about the narratives at play for PTA, Chloé Zhao for Hamnet, Ryan Coogler for Sinners and Joachim Trier for Sentimental Value. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 1h37m. We will be back next week with a preview of the 2025 New York Film Festival. Till then, let's get into it.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!Sinners (2025) is a bold, genre-blending film that fuses supernatural horror with rich musical drama, all set in the haunting backdrop of 1930s Mississippi. Directed by Ryan Coogler, the movie follows twin brothers—played by Michael B. Jordan—who return to their hometown to open a juke joint and escape their violent pasts. What unfolds is a slow-burning, atmospheric story layered with blues, gospel, and soul music that doesn't just underscore the scenes—it drives the emotion and tension. The visuals are lush and haunting, and the story avoids cheap scares in favor of deeper psychological and cultural unease.What makes Sinners stand out is its emotional depth and originality. Instead of relying on franchise familiarity or overused horror tropes, it dives into themes of redemption, racial trauma, faith, and family legacy with sincerity and craft. Jordan delivers a nuanced dual performance, and the supporting cast brings authenticity to the story's gritty, soulful tone. Critically acclaimed and a box office hit, Sinners has earned major awards and resonated with audiences for being more than just a horror film—it's a powerful, character-driven experience that lingers long after the credits roll. This film has a near perfect score on RT from both the critics and audience. Also, the BIG NEWS, DMR is now part of the Audible Creators Program!

In this bonus episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B is joined by A-King and Jayson Rodriguez for a dynamic deep dive into the world of Black cult classics—films that continue to shape culture, conversation, and identity across generations. The episode kicks off with an introduction to the concept of Black cult classics [00:00], before unpacking what truly defines a “classic” in this space [02:52].Together, they examine the cultural impact and the power of representation in film [05:53], while also spotlighting the role of actors and directors in pushing stories forward [09:04]. The discussion explores how genres within Black cinema have evolved [11:55], touching on the controversial legacy of Blaxploitation [14:44] and Eddie Murphy’s groundbreaking influence in the 1980s [17:44]. The conversation then shifts to the 1990s, celebrated as a golden era for Black films [21:05], followed by a lively debate on quality versus cult status [23:49]. After reflecting on how these dynamics continue to shape the future of Black cinema [27:04], the trio engages in a spirited comparison of “hood films” and “love films” [40:02], before branching into discussions on other genres like comedy, biopics, and more [42:48]. Romance and dramedy emerge as critical forces in shaping narratives around Black love and identity [46:32], while Tyler Perry’s controversial reign in Black film becomes a focal point [50:13]. This naturally leads into a comparison of Spike Lee and Tyler Perry’s distinct legacies [54:40], and a spotlight on the new generation of filmmakers such as Ryan Coogler and Jordan Peele [01:01:14]. The group also unpacks the complex role of slave movies in Black cinema [01:07:22], questioning their place in shaping narratives of identity and history. Finally, they close the episode on a playful note with a game of “How Many Black Movies Have You Seen?” [01:09:47], blending nostalgia, critique, and cultural appreciation. This episode highlights the enduring impact of Black films and the ongoing journey of representation, storytelling, and ownership in Hollywood. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Sale Link Follow the host on Social MediaMandii B Instagram/X @fullcourtpumps Follow the show on Social MediaInstagram @selectiveignorancepodTiktok @selective.ignoranceX/Twitter @selectiveig_podSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How do the antagonistic forces in your story escalate distinctly from the protagonists' journey? We often struggle to develop the middle stages of a story. Could this be because we focus  on our protagonists' journeys and plot structure more than on how the antagonistic powers are awakened, wronged, discovered, gathering strength and revealing themselves? In this episode, Chas and Stu are joined by professional screenwriter and playwright Kim Ho to explore how a generative story cycle (from tabletop role-playing game MOTHERSHIP) can be used to develop stories, not just write them better. This cycle is TOMBS: Transgression - Omens - Manifestation - Banishment - Slumber. Kim also contrasts this cycle with the Onset, Discovery, Confirmation, Confrontation cycle identified by horror philosopher Noel Carroll, as well as the philosophy of the FINAL DESTINATION franchise as analysed by The Morbid Zoo. By applying the TOMBS cycle to Ryan Coogler's amazing 2025 original feature SINNERS, we discover how focusing on the rising power of the various sources of antagonism can generate narrative fuel (and make your second Act sing); force your protagonists to Survive, Solve or Save (pick one); and how this escalation in antagonism can be mapped quite separately from your protagonists' character arcs.  To prove that TOMBS does not just work for horror stories, we polled our patreons for which other genres to explore. Stay turned for our next episode where we apply the TOMBS cycle to thriller REBEL RIDGE and comedy classic MEET THE PARENTS.

This week's show opens with a look at Ryan Coogler's new Hurricane Katrina: Race Against Time docuseries, unpacking racism, government failures, and raw survivor stories. The crew reflects on why this deeper truth is only now being told and how a 2025 Katrina might play out differently. Rome then stirs things up with conspiracy theories we actually believe, from COINTELPRO to Tuskegee, and how some “wild” ideas have turned out to be real. That leads into the Workday hiring bias lawsuit, raising questions about AI discrimination against Black, older, and disabled applicants—and whether tech is helping or hurting equity. Jab takes on the bombshell news that BET has canceled the Hip Hop and Soul Train Awards, sparking a debate on their cultural importance, the impact of streaming, and who could revive them. The conversation flows into a bigger question: Hip hop culture vs. music—can you love the music without knowing the roots, and does gatekeeping still matter? In new music, the team reviews Gunna's The Last Wun, a 25-track blend of trap, R&B, and Afrobeats rumored to be his final YSL project, plus Bryson Tiller's The Vices—a confident, rap-heavy mixtape-style album ahead of his slower R&B release Solace in October.

The rich tradition of Southern-fried vampires continues with Ryan Coogler's Sinners, a masterful mash-up of Delta blues, Irish folk, and the horrors of cultural appropriation. Paul, Arlo, and Eric rave about Michael B. Jordan's dual performance as twin gangsters Smoke and Stack, Ludwig Göransson's eclectic score, the frankness with which it explores America's long history of racism, and Coogler's audacious style. Plus, Paul finally saw the How to Train Your Dragon live-action remake.   NEXT: punches get personal with Thunderbolts*.

In this Geek Freaks episode, we celebrate Spiderman Day by discussing the live-action Spider-Man films, Tom Holland's new suit, and the ongoing shoot in Glasgow. The conversation then shifts to the future of the Hulk storyline in the MCU, speculation on God of War and Wolfenstein TV adaptations, and the potential for a Star Trek “Year One” series. We dive into the legality of fan art after recent Pokémon TCG drama, and our hosts share their picks for the best movies, games, comics, and TV shows so far in 2025. Tune in for an engaging discussion that blends nostalgia with fresh perspectives, complete with listener recommendations and a sneak preview of what's coming next. Timestamped Topics Time Topic 00:00:00–00:00:21 Introduction: Celebrating Spiderman Day and upcoming topics 00:01:37–00:02:44 Live-action Spider-Man rankings; Tobey Maguire vs. Tom Holland vs. Andrew Garfield 00:04:45–00:07:31 Behind the scenes of Spider-Man filming: New suit, Tony Stark tech, and potential nostalgic callbacks 00:07:31–00:12:17 Hulk's role in the upcoming Spider-Man film and possible MCU storylines 00:15:17–00:19:09 Amazon's God of War adaptation: Norse mythology focus and game-to-TV transition 00:21:37–00:22:23 Wolfenstein TV series speculation and Amazon's track record after Fallout 00:23:32–00:31:07 Star Trek “Year One” concept and the future of Strange New Worlds 00:31:07–00:39:28 Mid-show break: Listener poll results, favorite live-action Spidey, and comic conventions 00:41:00–00:51:20 Best of 2025 so far: Movies, animated movies, video games, and comics 00:55:02–01:04:47 Legality of fan art: Pokémon TCG controversy and a deeper discussion on copyright 01:04:47–01:13:42 Recommendations: Hello Kitty's “My Melody and Kuromi” series and the wholesome Dropout show “Game Changer” 01:13:42–end Wrap up: Thanking listeners, inviting questions, and previewing the next episode   Key Takeaways Live-Action Spider-Man Debate: Tobey Maguire remains a nostalgic favorite, but the hosts note that Tom Holland's portrayal captures the youthful energy of the comics. Andrew Garfield's films still deserve a watch for a fresh perspective. Spider-Man Day Preview: Filming for the new movie is underway in Glasgow and Pinewood Studios. The new suit seen in set photos may just be an early version; expect a Stark Tech upgrade later on. Hulk in the MCU: The show explores theories about bringing a “classic Hulk” back. If Bruce Banner loses control, it could set up a “Hulk vs. Punisher” scenario in the next Spider-Man film. God of War Adaptation: Amazon's series is confirmed to draw on the 2018 Norse storyline. The hosts hope to see Kratos' Greek mythology past referenced through flashbacks and deeper character development. Wolfenstein & Fallout Success: Wolfenstein could take a campy, bullet-heavy approach similar to Amazon's Fallout. The show creators hope Amazon will continue its good run of game adaptations. Star Trek Year One: A “year one” approach could explore how the Enterprise crew originally formed. The hosts support revisiting nostalgia without rehashing the original 1960s series, as long as the focus remains on character building. Fan Art and Copyright: After a Pokémon TCG card was accused of copying fan art, the discussion highlights how fan art technically violates copyright and can't be claimed if used without permission. Nintendo and Disney have strict policies, while Blizzard and Riot Games encourage fan creations. Best of 2025 (so far): The hosts rave about “Deadpool & Wolverine” and “Sinners” as standout films, with special love for “K-Pop Demon Hunters” and “Leo.” Games like “Death Stranding 2” and “Oblivion Remastered” shine, and comics such as “Sandman,” “Thing,” and “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow” capture the imagination. Wholesome Recommendations: From the adorable stop-motion Netflix series “My Melody & Kuromi” to the heartwarming “Game Changer” episode awarding $100,000, the show encourages viewers to find comfort in small joys. Quotes “It's hard not to pick Tobey Maguire, but Tom Holland plays the outnumbered kid that's right off the page.” – Frank “I always wanted a smart Hulk—but not a Hulk who refuses to smash.” – Squeaks “Amazon's adaptations are killing it. Between Fallout and what's in store for God of War, I think fans have a lot to look forward to.” – Frank “If we see Hulk, Punisher, and Spider-Man all fighting in the same film, something has to be out of control.” – Squeaks “Fandoms are passionate, but remember that fan art is technically derivative. It falls into a grey area unless the rights holder chooses to pursue it.” – Frank Call to Action Love what you hear?
