Triple Feature — Wed, 05 Feb 2025 10:00:00 -0500

February is all about the Oscars with this month's theme of Best Picture winners from the last almost century of the Academy Awards. We begin with C-Bear's pick, All About Eve (1950) which was nominated for fourteen awards and took home six wins; we discuss if all the buzz it warranted. Speaking of Oscars, we start the episode with a brief conversation on the snubs and surprises of this year's nominations, and in our recently watched, C-Bear revisits two 80's blockbusters, Freddy checks off a major blindspot, and Emma is in full Oscars mode with reviews of a few nominated films.

EmMarch: A Knight's Tale + Oscar Reactions

Triple Feature — Wed, 20 Mar 2024 11:00:00 -0400

You have been weighed. You have been measured. And you have been found wanting.

This week, EmMarch is rounded out with Emma's third and final pick of the month, A Knight's Tale (2001). We learn new vocabulary words, go behind the scenes, and Emma may or may not cry while talking about this campy, medieval sports movie. We also talk about the highs and lows of this year's Oscar ceremony, from bad animation jokes and disappointing losses to the rise of the international vote, exciting wins, and what might be the most iconic Oscars moment ever. But before that, C-Bear encounters more Heath Ledger movies, Freddy is back on the Agnes Varda grind, and Emma got a sneak peak at the new A24 joint in our recently watched segment.

We also make some unsolicited predictions for the top tier awards at the upcoming Academy Awards that take place Sunday, March 10.
