That’s the subject of the tech giant’s new ad for its voice-activated assistant, which aired during the 2019 O…

Got plans Sunday night? We’ll give you some: The 2019 Oscars are on. (That heads up was just for casual watchers, guys — we know film buffs have had this date etched in their brain since April.)
The 2019 Academy Awards will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday, Feb. 24 from 8 p.m. EST to 11 p.m. EST and will go host-less for the second time in ceremony history after Kevin Hart officially stepped down.

No host? No problem. The Oscars are always an entertaining shit show, especially when you watch with friends and people start to lose it when their favorite movie gets robbed. But this year is a must-see for other reasonsDiversity barriers are being broken all around, with the biggest involving representation milestones for people of color, non-black POC, and the LGBTQ+ community. Thanks to Black Panther, it’s also the first time a superhero movie has been nominated for Best Picture. Read more…

4 categories will be cut from Oscars broadcast
Kicking tradition to the curb, the Academy has controversially decided to eliminate four categories from the live broadcast of the 91st Oscars.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the awards for best cinematography, film editing, live-action short, and makeup and hairstyling will be presented during commercial breaks, not during the broadcast as usual.
The plan to present during commercial breaks was reportedly formulated by the Academy’s board of governors in August, but exactly which categories hadn’t been decided on at the time.
So, now we know. Although the cuts are reportedly meant to shorten the show — 24 awards in three hours — they’ve angered many who describe it as disrespectful. Read more…

The 91st Academy Awards are just a few weeks away, and if you’re struggling to feel adequately hype, fear not. Netflix is sweeping in with the assist.
The streaming service is adding a new sidebar to its layout, honoring Oscar nominees and winners of days gone by. Older projects, like the 1942 Best Documentary Film winner Prelude to War, are streaming alongside a few of 2019’s nominees — Netflix’s own Roma among them, of course.
At present, the curated collection, titled “Celebrate the Oscars,” includes 69 films for viewers to choose from. However, Netflix plans to keep the feature as a permanent asset, allowing streamers to easily access Academy-honored films years round. Naturally, additions and removals will apply here as they do the rest of Netflix’s offerings. Read more…

Netflix is notorious for doing the opposite of traditional film distribution — or at least they were, until they realized that awards would be involved if they debuted movies in cinemas for a few days.
And that was a damn good move: After playing in select theaters for a few weeks, Netflix original Roma has been nominated for 10 (yes, 10) Oscars including Best Picture and has tied with The Favourite for the film with the most nominations this year.
Other nominations include Best Foreign Language Film, Best Original Screenplay, Best Actress in a Leading Role, Best Actress in a Supporting Role, Achievement in Cinematography, Achievement in Production Design, Achievement in Sound Editing, and Achievement in Sound Mixing. This is unheard of for a Netflix original. Read more…

Mixing super heroes, memes, girl power, and social justice in one movie is just about the most 21st century theme you could think of. That movie is Black Panther, and it just became the first super hero movie to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars.
Aside from that, it’s also nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, Achievement in Production Design, Best Original Song, Achievement in Costume Design, Best Original Score, Achievement in Sound Editing, and Achievement in Sound Mixing. YO.
