The 96th annual Academy Awards will take place on Sunday, March 10th, and Jimmy Kimmel is doing the hosting thing again. Good for him? We shall see, but he is well accustomed to the scrutiny, and he’s already an ABC guy, so all good. Notably, this network will host the ceremony in an earlier time slot (at 7:00pm EST/4:00pm PST) because they had to make it weird somehow. And speaking of weird, man, the Oscars have been in a strange place for the past several years. First, there was the pandemic, then there was Chris Rock being smacked onstage by Will Smith, and now, there’s Barbenheimer.
Yes, that’s the name of the game this year. Barbie and Oppenheimer deserve that credit, too, by becoming an unofficial (yet amazing) double feature that propped up the summer box office. Expect plenty of representation for Killers Of The Flower Moon, Poor Things, The Holdovers (maybe even a nom for burger lover Paul Giamatti?), and Zone Of Interest. Perhaps Saltburn could grab some of the wealth, too. Let’s get this party started.
