Summary

Piers is joined by Nerdrotic & The Critical Drinker to react to Sunday night's Oscars. The showdown between Oppenheimer and Barbie sparked debates about the state of Hollywood and the changing landscape of the film industry. While some praised Oppenheimer for its craftsmanship and performances, others criticized it for being too long and self-indulgent. The Critical Drinker noted that Oppenheimer's success may have been a result of a lacklustre year in terms of quality films, making it the best choice among the competition.
