They talk about The Empire Strikes Back's dark turn in a groundbreaking trilogy, the iconic moments that shaped the universe arguably more than the original movie, and the Cloud City easter eggs you didn't know you missed.

Jean and Elysia recap and react to a surprisingly strong first season of Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man, the new Disney+ show that takes place in a Marvel universe different but not far away from the MCU's 616 – one where Peter Parker gets a totally fresh origin story with a cast of characters that mix the classics with fresh faces.
After giving their spoiler-free reactions, they talk through the character arcs and plot beats of the season – Elysia analyzing what makes the relationships in this show work so well, and Jean sharing the deeper conversation this series sparked with his own son.

Then, stick around until the end for an update on the latest precursor awards ceremonies, and how they might change the race.

Mark from the Academy of Death Racers and Rambling Cinema joins Elysia to talk about what she considers three of the most important Oscar categories: International Films (formerly Films Not in the English Language) and the two writing awards – Adapted and Original Screenplay.
Avoiding spoilers for those who haven't seen the movies, they talk through what makes or breaks these 15 films, which include Best Picture nominees Emilia Pérez, I'm Still Here, Conclave, A Complete Unknown, Nickel Boys, The Brutalist, The Substance, and Anora. (Though Elysia will argue that A Real Pain and Sing Sing should have been Best Picture nominees as well / instead.)
Stick around until after the credits for updates from last night's Independent Spirit Awards, and what that says about the state of the Oscar race.
