Whoa, boy is this episode something else! Hosts Mike and Steven welcome their first-ever guest, author Laura Carney, to the show, and the year she chose to discuss is the doozy of all Oscar years:1940.

2012 was an incredible year for film. A lot of Oscar races come down to two or three films or actors at most, but in 2013 there were so many great competitors that it could have been anybody’s win in just about every category. In this episode, Mike and Steven go deep into all of them and make some surprising choices with their re-Oscaring. To find …

Uma, Oprah. Oprah, Uma. The 1995 Academy Awards ceremony was a fun one thanks to the discomfort of its host David Letterman. The nominees were an interesting group, too, with more traditional Hollywood fare like Forrest Gump and Nobody's Fool sharing equal billing with the soon-to-explode independent movement embodied by Quentin Tarantino and his g…

In this episode, Mike and Steven look at all the Oscar-worthy titles up for statues, talk about a few underappreciated titles from the y…

1982 was quite a year in film, and the Oscar nominees were a strong bunch. Maybe Gandhi got a little too much love from the Academy, but beyond that many of the awards seem pretty right on. We talk about all of them, along with some choice guilty pleasures (Zapped! anyone?), in this week's episode. Check it out. To find out where you can watch this…

Like the bonus episodes, these will eventually be behind a paywall. But for now, they’re free for everyone to enjoy. This one in particular was a lot of fun. In our Horror Oscars episode, we handed out awar…

At Re-Oscared we plan to offer bonus episodes every once in a while. In them, we’ll hold our own Oscar ceremonies for anything fun that we can think of, whether that’s a particular genre, an actor, or something else that’s totally off the wall. First, we’re handing out statues in the Academy’s least favorite category: horror. There have only been a…

In this episode of Re-Oscared we go back to 1991 to look at what we perceive as the major injustice of Dances with Wolves pummelling Goodfellas in the race for statues. Plus, Mike has a lot to say about Hector Elizondo, Steven has a newfound love of Ghost, and everybody is on board the Kathy Bates train. We get into all of that and a bunch more—inc…
