The Reel Debaters

The Oscars are supposed to be the final word on the best film of the year. But every movie fan has at least one moment where the envelope opens, and the reaction is: wait… what?This week on The Reel Debaters, we step into the cinematic multiverse and debate the Oscars that almost were. If a single vote, campaign, or moment of momentum had shifted, the Academy’s history might look very different.And what else would Oscar week be like with a conversation about good old Timothy Chalamet stepping on his own campaign with not-so-kind words about the ballet and opera, which gets a little attention as well.Next Reel Debaters Trivia+ NightDisney+ Trivia Night April 3rd730 pmThe Rec RoomAddress: 696 Sterling Lyon Pkwy Lot 5, Winnipeg, MB R3P 1E9Eventbrite | thereeldebaters.ca | Link in bio5 rounds of Themed TriviaA Colouring ContestA Cosplay ChallengePrizes for all 3.CreditsExecutive Producer: Michael PetrowProduced by: Jimmy Skinner, Emily Clark Charles FernandesRecorded and Mixed at: Sick Bad Panda Podcast StudiosEpisode Description: Regaming the Oscars of the past to see if they went differentlyThe Reel Debaters Podcast combines movie debates, reviews, and interviews with filmmakers, actors, and creatives from across Canada and beyond — all from the heart of Winnipeg’s growing film community.Proudly made in Manitoba, where Canada makes moviesConnect with The Reel Debaters Podcastwww.thereeldebaters.caListen on: Spotify | Apple Podcasts | YouTube | Amazon Music | Google Podcasts

We unpack the adaptation and does it capture emotional weight or Hollywood melodrama The White Lotus: Season 3 – With the latest location, new cast, and thematic shift, what did all this incest mean?
