This big event joins many stars from the cinema universe to appreciate all the masterpieces they created for our entertainment. It's a wonderful way to acknowledge the work behind the movies, and we could help but discuss it on our pop-culture channel. This Slogging thread by Sara Pinto, Jack Boreham, Mónica Freitas and Abeer occurred in slogging's official #pop-culture channel, and has been edited for readability. Sara Pinto Feb 23, 2022, 12:34 PM Are you ready for the Oscars? https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/awards/2022-oscar-nominees-stream-years-best-picture-contenders-rcna15370 Sara Pinto Feb 23, 2022, 12:35 PM "The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the organization behind the Academy Awards, handed best picture nominations to 10 eclectic films on Tuesday — the most since "The King’s Speech" beat out nine rivals to take the Oscar in 2011." "Three of this year's nominees were distributed by streaming-first studios, and another two were released simultaneously in multiplexes and via the HBO Max. The crop of nominees features only one certifiable blockbuster: "Dune," the sci-fi epic that has grossed nearly $400 million worldwide."
