Episode: Supercut: A Tale of Two Movie Types - Disastrous Movies and Oscar Contenders
Description: We take a deep dive this week into two separate topics. First, in light of the confusion and clamour surrounding the release of Cats, we discuss movies that have big budgets and big expectations, and didn't necessarily deliver. Then we get into what it means to be an Oscar nominated or winning film - does it make us more likely to want to watch these movies? We also talk about movies that seem calculated and made primarily for the prestige of awards, or Oscar bait.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
