The Oscars Lost The Plot & PRIMATE is a Chimp Horror...Cliché? + GOAT Movies You Love To Hate (Audience Submissions!)

On the new ep of Fred Asquith on Film I’ve got some Oscar Nom thoughts, questions and hot takes. Was Paul Mescal snubbed for Hamnet? Is Sinners in the driving seat? And how the fork did F1 get a nom?! I then review PRIMATE, a new comedy-horror about a chimp going bananas (incredibly, was it cliche?). We’re also getting controversial because I watched The Godfather Part II for the first time, and I don’t think you’re gonna like my opinion. But thanks to your listener submissions of GOAT Movies You Love To Hate, I might be ok? Lastly we take a little spin through my 2008 movie journal, where I reviewed Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs on the SAME DAY. P.S. I called The Traitors finalé WEEKS ago. Explore the FoF socials/YT via my creepy website https://fredasquith.comTIMESTAMPS00:00 Intro-00:36 My Oscar Nominations HOT TAKEAWAYS (predictions coming soon)01:02 Sinners - is it in the Best Picture Driving seat?02:48 This makes the Netflix purchase of Warner Brothers even more depressing. 04:37 F1 got a Best Picture nomination??!?!07:35 Chase Infiniti got snubbed, but I found out why09:45 No nomination for The Rock11:15 Paul Mescal’s iPhone face was NOT snubbed. -12:28 Just so you know, I predicted The Traitors.
