About this listen
This week on Entertainment Is Broken, Richard Crouse and Sarah Hanlon break down the freshly announced Oscar nominations, from surprise snubs to horror films finally getting some long-overdue Academy love.
The conversation kicks off with a brutal (and oddly fascinating) hate watch of Mercy, a new sci-fi thriller built around an AI judge, a ticking clock, and a future where justice takes 90 minutes or less. Is it anti-AI? Pro-AI? Or just… inert? Richard explains why this might be the ultimate “seatbelt movie.”
From there, they dig into this year’s major Best Picture contenders, including Sinners, Hamnet, Sentimental Value, Train Dreams, Frankenstein, and One Battle After Another. The conversation covers Oscar predictions, blockbuster fatigue, genre bias, and what actually makes a great film.
