Fans across the globe have been patiently waiting for this week. The week to celebrate all that is great in film and television. Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in between, it’s Oscar week.

Oscar Issac, of course. The star of Dune, Ex Machina, and Star Wars finally has his big new Marvel show, Moon Knight, coming out in a few days. Why, did you think something else? Is there some other big movie-related Oscar event coming up soon? If so, that’s news to us.

No, here on io9 our Oscars are Oscar Isaac, and to celebrate we’ve decided to pick our favorite Oscars. But since we’re io9, we’re just doing the biggest and best genre Oscars. So no Inside Llewyn Davis, Card Counter, Show Me a Hero, etc. Now, let’s see who the Oscars go to.

Yes, that’s Oscar Isaac. No, there was no debate as to what last place was.

If Oscar played Gomez in live-action, it would probably be higher on the list. Alas, great animated casting with a very weird look ranks it lower. But we still approve.

Chalk this one up to tough competition. Oscar is great in Moon Knight as two characters for the price of one, truly getting the starring role he deserves. But, well, there are some great Oscars out there and we still haven’t seen all of Marc/Steven’s story yet.

RIP Duke. You had to die so your son Paul Atreides could live on, but your beard will last forever.

Annihilation is a weird movie and Kane, the story’s initiator, is a weird character. But we love it. He survives the mysterious shimmer and every time he shows up after, it’s a massive revelation.

Something, something, great movie, OMG this freaking dance scene.

We only saw a brief glimpse of Miguel O’Hara, aka Spider-Man 2099, at the end of Into the Spider-Verse, but the reveal was so good and the fact that he’ll star in the next one so exciting that, well, it’s very nearly the Best Oscar.

And the Best Oscar goes to... Poe Dameron! Poe is the best Oscar because, well, he rules. A great pilot, a great leader, a funny and brave hero—plus we’ve seen him in multiple movies, TV shows (he was on Resistance, remember?) as well as his own comic book series and more. Poe is also the role that kind of made Oscar into the superstar he is and so, he wins Best Oscar.

Elizabeth Hurley says it was a ‘nightmare’ working with Matthew Perry amid actor's addiction - Fox News

Elizabeth Hurley said it was a "nightmare" working with Matthew Perry on their 2002 film "Serving Sara," which was shot at the height of his drug addiction.  The production had to be abruptly shut down because the "Friends" star needed to enter rehab for two months.  Still, the "Royals" actress doesn’t hold it against Perry, who detailed his addiction struggles in his new memoir, "Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing."  Hurley recently told Yahoo! Entertainment it was a "little tough" during the film’s hiatus. But when he returned to filming after two months in rehab he was "fabulous." MATTHEW PERRY REVEALS THE SURPRISING REASON HE DUMPED JULIA ROBERTS   Elizabeth Hurley and Matthew Perry starred in 2002's "Serving Sara" together.  (Noam Galai/Frederick M.

Daisy Edgar-Jones in ‘Where the Crawdads Sing’: Film Review - Hollywood Reporter

Image
Where the Crawdads Sing is the kind of tedious moral fantasy that fuels America’s misguided idealism. It’s an attempt at a complex tale about rejection, difference and survival. But the film, like the novel it’s based on, skirts the issues — of race, gender and class — that would texture its narrative and strengthen its broad thesis, resulting in a story that says more about how whiteness operates in a society allergic to interdependence than it does about how communities fail young people. Directed by Olivia Newman ( First Match ), the film adaptation of Delia Owens’ popular and controversial novel of the same name tells the remarkable tale of a shy, reclusive girl raised in the marshes of North Carolina who finds herself embroiled in a grisly police investigation. Her name is Kya ( Daisy Edgar-Jones of Normal People , Fresh and Under the Banner of Heaven ), but to those in the neighboring town, whose residents abhor her, she is known simply as “Marsh Girl.” The account of her
