Erick drops some serious knowledge on us from the start by explaining once & for all, how the heck preferential balloting works for the voting in this category. Then Erick dives into which movies might be eliminated first and where their votes might go. He breaks down why the race has all but eliminated some of the nominees & keeps hope alive for a few other sneaky contenders. We also do a bunch of if / then scenarios regarding the upcoming BAFTA & WGA Awards before Erick lays out his snubs for the category, why they didn’t gain enough traction this awards season, & he makes his pick. Mike & I enjoy our normal format for the rest of the episode, but with a few caveats. We’re gonna save our Best Picture snubs for an unveiling on the Mike, Mike, and Oscars, which’ll drop early next week.
