    2023 Oscars Pre-Show - 95th Academy Awards

    2023 Oscars Pre-Show - 95th Academy Awards

    Welcome to the 2nd Annual Snubs & Dubs Oscars Pre-Show! We're going over most of the categories at the 95th Academy Awards and providing you with what we think should and will win for each category at this Sunday's ceremony!

    Please note: This was recorded the SAME DAY as we recorded our Season 3 finale (January 27th). That is to say,  a lot has happened since then, including many precursor awards AND the completed watch-through of all nominees of Best Picture by me, host Kyle. Now, I COULD have released this earlier, but I thought you know, I'll hold out, watch the rest of the movies, and if I have anything else to say, I'll record an addition at the end. Well, even though I've now seen all the movies, I can't say I need to make any changes to my predictions. Best Supporting Actress is still anyone's guess, and Best Actor has maybe narrowed to being between Fraser and Butler (which, by the way, I...liked...Elvis???). If you want to know any of my thoughts as things happen on Sunday, Tweet @snubsanddubs!

    The nominees for Best Picture this year are:

    • All Quiet on the Western Front
    • Avatar: The Way of Water
    • The Banshees of Inisherin
    • Elvis
    • Everything Everywhere All at Once
    • The Fabelmans
    • Tar
    • Top Gun: Maverick
    • Triangle of Sadness
    • Women Talking

    S03E14 - Training Day (2001)

    Welcome to Season 3 of Snubs & Dubs! This season we are covering the 74th Academy Awards, featuring the films of 2001.

    For Episode 14, we are talking about Antoine Fuqua's Training Day. Training Day is a police drama about a veteran officer (Denzel Washington) who escorts a rookie (Ethan Hawke) on his first day with the LAPD's tough inner-city narcotics unit. "Training Day" is a blistering action drama that asks the audience to decide what is necessary, what is heroic and what crosses the line in the harrowing gray zone of fighting urban crime. Does law-abiding law enforcement come at the expense of justice and public safety? If so, do we demand safe streets at any cost?
