This week on the InSession Film Podcast, we discuss Disney’s shenanigans over Moana 2 and their brutally unethical way of turning an even heavier profit. We also discuss our Awards Editor Shadan Larki’s Oscar predictions and how we feel about the awards race this year!
– Opening Banter / College Football (0:28)
We open the show this week with a little InSession Sports as JD’s Michigan Wolverines had a huge upset over the Ohio State Buckeyes, and we couldn’t help ourselves as we had to talk about how crazy the game was this year. Especially because Michigan’s win sends Brendan’s Penn State Nittany Lions to the B1G Championship game.
– Box Office / Disney Shenanigans (22:34)
As always we get into the the weekend’s box office numbers, however; this week comes with a bit of a different narrative. We knew Moana 2 was going to win the weekend, but that’s the problem. The production around the film is very concerning given Disney’s practices and how they’ve undermined a lot of artists in the process. And they’ve now been rewarded for their shenanigans.
– Oscar Talk (1:26:38)
As mentioned above, inspired by Shadan’s Oscar picks, we wanted to give our thoughts on this year’s awards season and how we see it playing out. There are some fascinating narratives shaping up that could make for a really fun awards run. It’s more wide open than it’s been in recent years. It’s refreshing and it could make for a very different awards season.
