Also Mike rejoins Mike 1 for this MMO Weekly episode after getting snowed or iced into his house without Skype for last Monday’s MMOW. So we’re happy to both be back for this episode. We’re happy after the SAG Awards, and we’re still on cloud 9 after our great interview experience with CollegeHumor’s Brennan Lee Mulligan (which you NEED to check out if you haven’t yet). We begin with a lot of happiness, and it continues into our Oscar Race update as we react to the Screen Actors Guild Awards! We go category by film category and discuss a bunch of stats, film theories, and speeches regarding the SAGs. Black Panther won Best Ensemble, and we hope this reopens it’s Best Picture chances. There are stats to back up this hope. Glenn Close confused us with her speech, but she emerges as the clear front runner now. Then we have a surprise with Rami Malek winning the Lead Actor category, and we discuss the likelihood of a real race between Malek and Christian Bale. Emily Blunt surprises us again by winning Best Supporting Actress, Mahershala Ali cements himself as the favorite for Best Supporting Actor, and we have A LOT to say about Stunt Ensemble winner Black Panther, taking the award over Mission: Impossible - Fallout. You also get your weekly follow-up on SixDegreesOfMMO, as well as a new SAG Award themed challenge. We have our long overdue “What We’re Watching” segment with a self made drop by Also Mike, and then we catch you up on the last few weeks of January Box Office results, theatrical releases in our Do You Care (?) segment, and the disturbing News of the Week with our takes on the Bryan Singer and Michael Jackson Doc stories hitting Hollywood. It’s another loaded episode, and we’re dying to hear your thoughts. You can send them to us on social media.
