Section 31
Okay so Section 31 was not well received. It wasn’t well received by Star Trek fans and it wasn’t well received by film fans. Now how it plays as a Star Trek film is something that I have no stake in. I have literally never seen a single episode of Star Trek so the overarching context and the world it's supposed to fit into means absolutely nothing to me. So we will be judging this solely as a film. I will be critiquing it with the same criteria I do anything else.

Oscar Nominations
The Oscar nominations for 2025 have been announced and we are going to talk about them. We will recap the nominations for the major categories and talk about the possible snubs, the biggest surprises and then talk about who I think is going to actually take each of the categories. There were so many incredible films released last year that the awards this year are actually very up in the air and lots of films deserve the recognition.

One of Them Days
I feel like I have not seen Ms. Keke Palmer in anything in a while so I was beyond ecstatic when I started seeing trailers and advertisements for One of Them Days. She is beyond talented and she is my favorite Broadway Cinderella. She is so phenomenal so I couldn’t wait to see what her newest comedy had in story. It has also been a long time since a film branded as a comedy was actually funny, so I was looking forward to that as well.

You Hurt My Feelings
Netflix is already cranking out the original films this year. You Hurt My Feelings is one of their 3-4 releases that came out in January this year. Starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus the comedy is added to the list of streaming service films that have some relatively big names. We are rapidly approaching the time where streaming service films are going to be eligible for awards without a theatrical screening. Streaming services have been producing more high quality content, with higher caliber actors so it is only a matter of time.

For The Love of Dracula
Now I know that most of you have had your fill of Dracula. That tall, handsome pale fellow, with sharp fangs, bats in his eyes, and that stunning long black cape. Many centuries old he has the experience of having lived through all of the centuries and has met more people than we ever will. Once Hollywood got a hold of him the theaters were filled with hundreds of different Dracula movie versions. My two very favorites are the original Dracula with Bela Lugosi and a more romantic version with Frank Langella.
