The 2018 Academy Awards' Best Picture race is one of the most unpredictable in recent memory. Cinemablend's Sean O'Connell joins Cheddar to break down the biggest storylines heading into Hollywood's biggest night. The ceremony's drama will start before the ceremony begins, as all eyes turn to the Ryan Seacrest controversy on the red carpet.
O'Connell discusses whether publicists will steer their clients away from the embattled E! personality due to newly detailed allegations made against him. We also discuss the Oscars dedicating a moment of the show to the Time's Up movement.
Finally, we offer our final Oscars predictions. This year, the major acting categories are expected to be dominated by the favorites who have been cleaning up all awards season long. However, Baker, Hope, and O'Connell don't see eye to eye on who will win the biggest award of the evening.
Tony Bennett, the eminent and timeless stylist whose devotion to classic American songs and knack for creating new standards such as "I Left My Heart In San Francisco" graced a decadeslong career that brought him admirers from Frank Sinatra to Lady Gaga, died Friday.
This week we recommend the in-laws from hell, a feel-good teen drama of the ages, megachurch preachers, a trip down Marvel's memory lane, and a podcast to inspire.
