The Lobby: Oscar Nominations 2020 (Patreon)

As Keith wrote in a recent edition of The Projector, our relationship with awards season, and the Oscars in particular, is a complex one, but it's hard not to feel a little cynicism about the whole endeavor looking at this year's Academy Awards nominations. Scott, Keith, and Tasha got together a couple days after they were announced to sift through the disappointments (no women directing nominees!) in search of some bright spots (an unexpected and exciting Animated Feature slate!), and to mull what Oscar-night outcomes they'd most like to see.
