Oscars: And the winners of the 89th Academy Awards are…
Let’s address the elephant in the room: there was Steve Harvey-reminiscent chaos last night during the Best Picture announcement at the Academy Awards as La La Land was somehow announced as receiving the Oscar… only for producer Jordan Horowitz to correct the mistake midway through his acceptance speech when he revealed that Barry Jenkins’ Moonlight […]
Why The Oscars Are The Most Important Event Of The Year
Neil Calloway claims that the Academy Awards are more important than you might think… Tonight is the 89th Academy Awards, the industry prize giving ceremony that everyone knows as the Oscars (for obscure reasons – nobody is quite sure why they’re called that, with competing origin stories for the nickname).

Are the Academy Awards really biased against blockbusters?
Angus Houvouras on whether the Academy Awards are really biased against blockbusters… You’ve gotta love James Cameron. If ever a director has earned our collective respect, it’s the guy that brought us Terminator, Aliens, T2, The Abyss, and True Lies.
