4th Annual Oscars Preview Episode!

from Sitting in Silence · host Maurice Carlos Ruffin

I’ve finally done it. I ran my mouth for well over an hour. But it’s all for a good cause. In an era in which Hollywood is shrinking, streaming services dominate—can you believe people watch films on their cell phones?—and the theatrical experience is going the way of VHS rental stores, it’s a nice to thing to remember why we love going to the movies. I’m a life long film lover. That why you can trust me to deliver this year’s Annual Oscars Preview Episode wherein I list my Best Picture nominees from least favorite to most favorite. And discuss some of the other categories as well like Best Actor and Best Actress. I also explain who will win and why.The Oscars ceremony will be televised this Sunday, March 15, 2026 at 7pm EST. Who do you think will win and why? Tell me or just say hello in the comments.
