Our movie trivia game playing this week kicks Six Degrees Round 7 up another week in favor of a new game we had fun with you all on Twitter that we need a name for but are currently using the working title of Oscar Film Premise Creator 2000. Shout outs to RLterryreelview.com, And The Runner Up Is, Film Inquiry, & Awards Circuit & kudos to their creativity. We’ll get back to our SixDegreesOfMMO again next week. So do send us your submissions for round 7: Barry Jenkins to Larry Bird. OMFG, did we finally stump you all?! We then debut our Pop Culture Corner segment where we dive into the new story on the life & trying times of Amanda Bynes in Paper magazine, and we continue to rundown our other MMO Weekly playlist of Box Office, Movie News, and Oscar Race updates. Hot takes fly like superheroes after an alien invasion, and we’re proud to unveil a whole bunch of new Oscar theories & statistical research for you to close out the show.
