This week on 'The Issue Is' we talk about the recent California storms and potential flood dangers with Karla Nemeth, then the 95th Academy Awards takes the spotlight as Variety’s Elizabeth Wagmeister and Steve Mason, host of the “Culture Pop” podcast, join us to talk all things Oscars.
To break down all things Oscars, Elex Michaelson is joined on "The Issue Is" by Variety’s Elizabeth Wagmeister and Steve Mason, host of the "Culture Pop" podcast. Beyond Hollywood, Michaelson is also joined by Karla Nemeth, Director of California’s Department of Water Resources.
Days ahead of the ceremony, the all-star panel also make their final predictions for some of the biggest, most competitive races.
MASON’S CENTRAL TAKE: "I think it's a really tough business. I mean, as you mentioned, lost 2000 screens during the pandemic. Realistically, though, that's only 5% of all the theaters in the country. I'm actually very bullish on the exhibition business. Even the streamers now are paying attention. Like, for example, Amazon is going to spend $1,000,000,000 on films just for theatrical release.
MICHAELSON’S CENTRAL TAKE: "To me, the best movie of the year, the one that I enjoyed the most, the one that everybody enjoyed the most, was 'Top Gun: Maverick.' It's the movie that brought everybody back into theaters. That was the most fun that I've had in theaters in years. And I know I'm not alone.
