Terry Lipshetz: Welcome, everyone, to another episode of Streamed and Screened and entertainment podcast about movies and tv from Lee Enterprises. I'm Terry Lipshetz, managing editor of the national newsroom at Lee and co-host of the program of Bruce Miller, editor of the Sioux City Journal and longtime entertainment reporter. Bruce ’tis the season. The season is here. Award season.
Bruce Miller: It's award season. Never mind the holidays. I think that's a better holiday to celebrate. Great, right? Because you don't have to buy gifts and you just get, the only thing.
Terry Lipshetz: You might be buying are subscriptions, subscriptions to streaming services and ways, to watch if you've missed anything, like I have.
Bruce Miller: YouTube can be a critic. All you need to do is have all the services so you can see everything. You can walk in my shoes for a day or two. I'll tell you, I have been watching movies around the clock, I kid you not. And I've been seeing a lot of things this week. We came out with the Golden Globe nominations and those were kind of underground for a while. They know.
Terry Lipshetz: I was like, I don't think.
Bruce Miller: We’re going to give them any attention this year because they've had some kind of organizational problems, but it's going to be on CBS and Paramount plus. So I think they have a profile. And even some of the nominees said, well, I don't know how to react to this. So there you are. But it is a great bellwether for the Oscars because they hit just about all of the films that would likely be nominated for something. You'll still see some stray ones, but I think, for the most part, the big names are in there.
Terry Lipshetz: Well, and going back to some of the episodes we did this past summer, particularly around Barbenheimer, which know, the big moment of the time we talked about know Barbie is a movie you have to take seriously. This isn't some kid movie about the doll. And we predicted that Barbie could be a big showing at Oscar season.
Bruce Miller: It led everything here and it's dominating the music categories. I think it has three nominations in the Golden Globes for best song. Now that says something. Did you think it was a musical? I didn't think it was a musical necessarily, but I wouldn't doubt that the best song Oscar winner would come from Barbie.
Terry Lipshetz: Best original song. Six nominees, three of them are from Barbie. I'm not great at math, but three out of six seems like a pretty good odd to, win so
