from Box Office GROSS: The Top 50 Hit Films of 2006 · host Brian Schmid

We didn't intend to put out two episodes FOR SICKOS ONLY(tm) so close together, but we had a long gestating idea for an episode covering the 2006 Oscars telecast, honoring all the films of 2005, a whooping THIRTEEN we covered on our show.We discuss the infamous controversy between Crash v. Brokeback Mountain for Best Picture, the legendary performance and victory for Three 6 Mafia, Jon Stewart's hosting job, the "TCM Fortnite" intro, the aggressive musical stings, "mayor of Hollywood" George Clooney, our passionate frustration with Oscar telecasts, and our affinity for montages, montages of any kind! We had so much fun just sort of bullshitting offbrand that we couldn't help but have a good time here, for one of the most memorable ceremonies of the 2000s. Check it out!(Nominees we covered: Crash, Brokeback Mountain, Walk the Line, Cinderella Man, Wallace & Gromit, March of the Penguins, Memoirs of a Geisha, King Kong, War of the Worlds, Narnia, Batman Begins, Revenge of the Sith, Charlie & the Chocolate Factory)
