## Resource

We've got two pretty big new movies this week: It's the wild Jessie Buckley-Christian Bale mashup "The Bride!" and then the new Pixar movie, "Hoppers." Lots going on there! In both! And then, because the Oscars are Sunday, we make our predictions in each of the major categories. We don't remember a time the winners have been more difficult to predict. Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music. We hope you enjoy. Let us know what you think @griersonleitch on Twitter or Bluesky, or griersonleitch@gmail.com.
