Here at Mondo Movies we contrarians always get it gloriously wrong. In this year of Barbenheimer, we give you our predictions for the evening’s ceremony, held an hour ahead of Bat Time and on another Bat Channel due to the US Springing Forward and Sky finally dropping the UK ball. That means our beloved Wossy is back fronting up a movie show for the first time in two decades and there’s an early start for Academy Award Bingo and drinking games. What was it they used to sing on the first season of Big Brother – it’s only a game show, it’s only a game show? Enjoy! Just don’t go spending your spondulix at Paddy Power on anything we think!
