As promised, we are finally delivering our Part 2 Oscar Special – Oscars Breakdown on the 2022 Front. Yes a pun for a film that was nominated heavily and sweeped some of the technical categories and name dropped quite a bit in today’s episode. We bring back ELIA NINO, aka the Hollywood Chai’s Arab Godfather of Cinema! Just as a reminder, in part one, we talked about everything from this year’s telecast, adding new categories to the Oscars, to the new diversity and inclusivity rules that AMPAS is putting into effect soon, and this part, part two, is our commentary as we go through and dissect every category’s nominee and winner and what artists were snubbed in specific categories! Let's dive right in!
