However, that's what the People and the Oscars had in store for us this year. "Frozen" represents the final movie we're covering for The People that isn't a sequel or based on IP. The mega-hit musical embedded itself in popular culture, but does it still resonate? Meanwhile, "12 Years a Slave" beat "Gravity" for Best Picture and launched Lupita Nyong'o into stardom. The graphic depiction of slavery through the eyes of Solomon Northrup (Chiwetel Ejiofor) won rave reviews. Does Steve McQueen's epic still live up to...2020-09-2000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2012 - "The Avengers" vs. "Argo"Podcasters, Assemble!!! We've reached an important milestone. "The Avengers" was one of the foundational moments in Matt & Chris' friendship. It commemorates the day they moved into the same house together in college. The groundbreaking cinematic universe builder goes up against another thrill ride. "Argo" was a commercial and critical hit in 2012, but almost had its Oscar hopes dashed when Ben Affleck was snubbed for Best Director. 8 years later, does the film age better or worse?

The Hollywood of old and now come head to head in our 2011 face-off: "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2" vs. "The Artist." How does the end of one of the biggest franchises hold up, especially in light of J.K. Rowling's views? Meanwhile, does the charm of "The Artist's" silent movie throwback still work nine years?

Woody and Buzz conquered the box office and forced us all to weep in "Toy Story 3." The third film in the groundbreaking Pixar series became the third animated film to earn a nomination for Best Picture. However, it lost to the inspirational British tale "The King's Speech." Colin Firth won Best Actor for his work as King George VI, who suffered from a stutter. Will the stuttering King win out against the crafty bunch of animated toys?

Hear us call out our favorite performances, most influential filmmakers of the time and offer more recommendations on what to watch from the early 2000s.2020-07-1100 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2009 - "Avatar" vs. "The Hurt Locker"A tale as old as time - ex wife vs. ex husband. Few narratives were more ready made than the David/Goliath fight for the Oscar Best Picture prize in 2009. James Cameron beat himself for the highest grossing movie of all-time, as "Avatar" overtook "Titanic." Meanwhile, Kathryn Bigelow's "The Hurt Locker" was the little indie that could, winning Best Picture to become the lowest grossing Best Picture winner in the modern era. Which holds up best over a decade later? Which one of these films deserves four sequels? Listen to find out.2020-05-1300 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2008 - "The Dark Knight" vs. "Slumdog Millionaire"Looking to travel back to a simpler time! The year is 2008... recession is on the mind, rather than recession AND pandemic. Still, "The Dark Knight" won rave reviews from critics, audiences and fanboys alike. All thought it had a great shot at becoming the first superhero Best Picture nominee. Alas, it received eight nominations - including a win for Heath Ledger's Joker - but no Best Picture nomination. Instead, the Best Picture that year was Slumdog Millionaire, which had a pretty good sweep of the night with eight wins. Which holds up with us now holed up in our homes...2020-04-1800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2007 - "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" vs. "No Country for Old Men"The Coen Brothers steamrolled across the 2007 awards season, as "No Country for Old Men" won Best Picture, Director, Supporting Actor (Javier Bardem) and Adapted Screenplay at the Oscars. While the stoic crime/western captured Oscar's attentions, the public flocked to theaters to see the "Pirates of the Caribbean" initial trilogy end with "At World's End." Did the Pirates franchise stick the landing? Is "No Country for Old Men" the best of the Coens' filmography? Listen to find out!2020-03-2200 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2006 - "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" vs. "The Departed"Aaaaaahhhhhahhhhahhhhh Davy Jones may have sunk ships, destroyed people and commanded an army of sea creatures, but he can he defeat the first Martin Scorsese film on the podcast? Best Picture Winner "The Departed" faces off against "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" in this 2006 showdown. Does Scorsese's "Infernal Affairs" remake still deserve Best Picture? Is "Dead Man's Chest" one of the best "Pirates" film?

The People vs Oscar returns with one of the most controversial Oscar years ever. "Crash" pulled off a crazy upset against "Brokeback Mountain." Is the film as bad as its reputation suggests? In the other corner, we look at the fourth installation of the "Harry Potter" franchise. "Goblet of Fire" gave us the first glimpse of Voldemort, as played by Ralph Fiennes. With that, this was also the first PG-13 of the franchise. Did the bump in ratings help it against "Crash?" Listen to find...2020-01-0600 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2004 - "Shrek 2" vs. "Million Dollar Baby"In 2004, animation fever overtook audiences. "Shrek 2" ran throughout the summer, becoming a worldwide sensation. With pop culture references abound, it feels like a time capsule of exactly when it came out. Similarly frozen in time is "Million Dollar Baby," which won four Oscars, including Best Picture, Director, Actress (Hilary Swank) and Supporting Actor (Morgan Freeman). How well did Clint Eastwood's sports melodrama age? Did it age better than Shrek's jokes? Listen to find out.2019-11-1000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2003 - "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King""Do you remember the Oscars, Mr. Frodo? It'll be February soon. And the campaigns will be in blossom, and..." you know where this goes. "The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" utterly dominated the year 2003. In addition to being a global box office juggernaut, the film swept the Oscars. It won all eleven categories that it was nominated for, including Best Picture. For this special episode, we invited "Lord of the Rings" expert Cody Pestana to discuss the final film of the original trilogy with us.2019-09-1800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2002 - "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" vs. "Chicago"The name on everybody's lips is going to be... Smeagol!" Get ready for lots of musical mash-ups. It's Chicago vs. Lord of the Rings! The second installment of Peter Jackson's fantasy saga won the box office, but saw the lowest Oscar nomination tally of the three films. Meanwhile, "Chicago" reinvigorated the musical and became the first musical to win Best Picture since the 60s. Will we sing the same tune of Oscar or move closer towards Mordor? Listen to find out!2019-08-2900 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2001 - "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" vs. "A Beautiful Mind""You're an Oscar loser, Harry" 2001 marked the beginning of one of the biggest franchises of all time. "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" became the highest grossing film of the year. However, the Oscars were much more taken with the "Lord of the Rings" franchise instead of our young wizard. Still, you can't tear Oscar from their biopics. Ron Howard's hit drama "A Beautiful Mind" won Best Picture, along with Best Director and Supporting Actress for Jennifer Connelly. Is Howard's mathematician biopic more magical than Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? Listen to find out.2019-07-2800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar2000 - "Mission: Impossible 2" vs. "Gladiator"We jump into the millennium with an action-packed bang in our latest episode. Though it's a new decade, new century and new millennium, the Oscars are always up to their old tricks. "Gladiator" marks a return to the swords and sandals epics of yesteryear, winning five Oscars including Picture and Actor (Russell Crowe). Far from Oscar this year was "Mission: Impossible 2," the sequel to Tom Cruise's lucrative '90s franchise that still runs today. Is this one of the highlights or low points? Listen to find out!2019-07-1200 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. OscarThe 1990s Oscars - Matt & Chris' FavoritesWe've reached the end of an era! The millennium is upon the podcast! But first, before we travel into the 2000s, let's look back at the best movies we watched in the 90s, as well as some other movies we didn't cover from that period that you should check out. Our lists have become rather unweildly in minisodes of the past, so this time we're only doing 10 picks each! Let us know some of your favorite movies from the 90s.2019-06-3000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1999 - "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace" vs. "American Beauty"1999 may be regarded by many as one of the all time great film years. However, both the People and the Oscars made very interesting choices this year. The highest grossing movie of the year was "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace," a highly anticipated blockbuster that seemed to age poorly the minute it was shown. Competing against it is Best Picture winner "American Beauty," the favorite movie of every mid-2000s high school student. Sam Mendes' film about suburban unrest and one man's mid life crisis takes on a different meaning with the recent allegations of star Kevin Spacey. Which...2019-06-1800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1998 - "Armageddon" vs. "Shakespeare in Love"It's the end of the world and modern theater as we know it! The year 1998 brings us one of the biggest Oscar upsets, as the romantic comedy "Shakespeare in Love" pulled out a surprise victory over Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan." Private Ryan also narrowly missed the highest grossing title since Michael Bay's "Armageddon" packed moviegoers in theaters. In the epic fight between Shakespeare and Michael Bay, who comes out ahead? Listen and find out!2019-05-1800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1997 - "Titanic"Near, far, whereeeeeeeever you are... I believe that, Titanic gooooes on Love it or hate it, it's impossible to not have an opinion on Titanic. The romantic epic became the highest grossing film of all time in 1997 and won a record 11 Oscars from 14 nominations. It catapulted Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet to superstardom. In many ways, it defined pop culture for years. The People vs Oscar brings on a record 3 guests to delve to the deeps of the Atlantic. Let us know where you fall on the Titanic "love it/hate it" scale! Email us at peoplevsoscar@gmail.com.2019-04-2700 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1996 - "Independence Day" vs. "The English Patient"Which movie about flying won in 1996? The winner of nine Oscars, "The English Patient" was a long, epic romance spanning two timelines. The movie was initially loved, only to have its reputation tarnished over the years (potentially from a whole Seinfeld episode about hating it). However, does it hold up better than "Independence Day," the massively successful blockbuster about aliens destroying the Earth? Does President Bill Pullman's monologue work better than sweet words from Ralph Fiennes? Did Juliette Binoche's Fresco painting withstand the aliens? Which movie did Lauren Bacall like better? Listen to find out.2019-04-1300 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1995 - "Toy Story" vs. "Braveheart"To Infinity, Scotland & Beyond! 1995 features a war between Scottish epic "Braveheart" and the game-changing Pixar debut, "Toy Story." Mel Gibson's three hour film won about as many Oscars as butts were shown in the film, including Picture and Director. Meanwhile, "Toy Story" became the highest grossing film of the year and changed the world of computers, animation and storytelling forever. Which will win in our "People vs. Oscar" face off? Tune in to find out.2019-03-2600 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1994 - "The Lion King" vs. "Forrest Gump"Can You Feel the Podcast Tonight? Welcome to our 1994 episode of "The People vs. Oscar." The highest grossing film ("The Lion King") takes on the Oscar winning movie of that year ("Forrest Gump"). What will win out this week - the animated classic or Tom Hank's trip through history? Tune in to find out!2019-03-0900 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1993 - "Jurassic Park" vs. "Schindler's List"What's better than one Spielberg movie? Two Spielberg Movies! 1993 pits two classic, but very different, Steven Spielberg movies against each other. The highest grossing movie of the year was "Jurassic Park," a classic tale of adventure that also tackles questions around our God's complex. Meanwhile, Spielberg won Best Director and Best Picture for his Holocaust epic, "Schindler's List." Which wins out in the end? Listen to find out.2019-02-2800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1992 - "Aladdin" vs. "Unforgiven"We can show you the world Dirty, dusty and dangerous Welcome back to the People vs. Oscar! It's the year of our birth... 1992! Disney's animated classic (soon to have a live action remake) Aladdin was the highest grossing movie of the year. This goes up against Best Picture winner "Unforgiven," our first Clint Eastwood of the podcast. Will the western take down the genie? Listen to find out.2019-02-1800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1991 - "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" vs. "The Silence of the Lambs"I'll be back... with some fava beans and a nice chianti. We've got 2 very different thrillers on our hands for 1991. The people turned out in droves to James Cameron's "Terminator 2: Judgment Day," which sent Arnold Schwarzeneggar back to the 90s, but with a very different mission. Meanwhile, the Oscars went with the February sleeper hit "The Silence of the Lambs" for its top 5 prizes - Best Picture, Director, Actor (Anthony Hopkins), Actress (Jodie Foster) and Screenplay. Did the iconic horror film deserve them all? Tune in to find out!2019-01-2400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1990 - "Ghost" vs. "Dances with Wolves"Listeners, you in danger girrrrrrl! We're back with a new season of People vs Oscar! We've finally made it to the 90s. And 1990 sure gave us quite a quintessential match up. The romance/drama/thriller/comedy "Ghost" may have won the hearts (and box office) of the public. However, the three hour Kevin Costner vanity play "Dances with Wolves" won the Oscar. Perhaps they loved his butt shots almost as much as he did. Listen to find out whether we side with the People or Oscar!2019-01-1600 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. OscarThe 1980s Oscars - Matt & Chris' FavoritesWe're here to wrap up the 80s with a not-so-mini minisode. Listen to which movies win our top prizes, as well as the other 80s movies we didn't get to review that we'd recommend you watch.2018-12-1000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1989 - "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" vs. "Driving Miss Daisy"Two irascible elders face off against each other as we round out the 1980s. "Driving Miss Daisy" puts Morgan Freeman in the driver's seat as he carts around Jessica Tandy's high maintenance Daisy Wertham. Similarly, Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones carts around his father, Henry Jones (Sean Connery) in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade." Which pairing made for a better viewing experience? Tune in to find out.2018-11-2200 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1988 - "Rain Man"We've reached another year where the Best Picture winner was also the highest grossing film of the year. "Rain Man" marks one of the odder films with this distinction (compared to "All Quiet on the Western Front" or "The Godfather"). However, we take a journey as we uncover what made the film so popular and acclaimed in 1988. In addition, does the film hold up today? How does it rank in terms of Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman's careers? How many toothpicks really were on the ground? Tune in to find out.2018-11-0400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1987 - "Fatal Attraction" vs. "The Last Emperor"We are not going to be ignored! Two very different movies go head to head on this week's episode of the podcast. Audiences turned out in droves to see "Fatal Attraction," an erotic thriller with Michael Douglas and Glenn Close which went on to 5 Oscar nominations, including Best Picture. How does the film hold up under modern scrutiny and does it still rank among Glenn Close's best performances? The Oscars, meanwhile, fell in love with Bernardo Bertolucci's epic "The Last Emperor," which swept all nine Oscar categories it was up for. Were we as enamored with the 60 year spanning epic...2018-10-2400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1986 - "Top Gun" vs "Platoon"Not all war movies are created equally. 1986 brought together two very different films about war. Vietnam War Veteran Oliver Stone brought a new, raw and horrifying depiction of war in the film "Platoon," which won Best Picture. Still, audiences had their breath taken away by ace fighter pilot Tom Cruise in "Top Gun." Which war film gets our vote? Listen to find out.2018-09-3000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1985 - "Back to the Future" vs. "Out of Africa"Two romances of the past face off in this 1985 battle. Sydney Pollack's epic romance "Out of Africa" goes up against Robert Zemeckis' blockbuster "Back to the Future." "Out of Africa" marks our last Meryl Streep performance of the podcast and finds our favorite actress fall in love with both Africa and Robert Redford. Meanwhile, Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) finds himself in quite an odd love triangle when he travels back to the 50s when his parents first met in the crowdpleaser "Back to the Future." Which won over our hearts? Listen to find out.2018-09-1200 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1984 - "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" vs. "Amadeus"What's more treacherous - the Temple of Doom or the classical music scene? We've got the ultimate prestige vs. blockbuster debate in 1984. The Oscars showered Milos Forman's opus "Amadeus" with 8 Oscar wins from 11 nominations. Meanwhile, audiences flocked to the Indiana Jones prequel "The Temple of Doom." Which comes out ahead? Tune in to find out!2018-08-2900 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1983 - "Return of the Jedi" vs. "Terms of Endearment"Two space movies (of sorts) go head to head in this 1983 battle. People turned out in droves to see the conclusion of the original "Star Wars" trilogy in "Return of the Jedi." However, the Oscars awarded the 2nd biggest hit of the year, "Terms of Endearment." The three hankie dramedy chronicles the decades long relationship between mother and daughter. Plus, Jack Nicholson plays a womanizing astronaut. What's not to love? Stay tuned after the episode for some Terms of Endearment from some special fans of the podcast! 2018-08-1400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1982 - "E.T." vs. "Gandhi"It's blockbuster vs. biopic this week at the People vs Oscar. Steven Spielberg's box office champion "E.T. The Extra Terrestrial" won over hearts and wallets as it became the highest grossing movie of its time and even got a Best Picture nomination. It lost, however, to "Gandhi," Richard Attenborough's 3 hour epic on Mahatma Gandhi that spanned over 50 years of his life. Which film wins out in the end? Listen to find out.2018-08-0200 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1981 - "Raiders of the Lost Ark" vs. "Chariots of Fire"It's the war of iconic movie scores! Steven Spielberg's iconic blockbuster "Raiders of the Lost Ark" takes on the Oscar winning sports drama "Chariots of Fire." The Spielberg classic ranks as the favorite film of all time for one of our co-hosts. However, do the synth filled races of "Chariots of Fire" sway anyone to Oscar's side? Tune in to find out!2018-07-1800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1980 - "The Empire Strikes Back" vs. "Ordinary People"Familial strife is at the heart of our inaugural 80s episode.

Few weeks have such stark contrasts in tone as 1978. The Oscars wanted to confront the Vietnam War head on, with "The Deer Hunter" (about a bunch of local factory town workers headed off to war) besting "Coming Home" (Jane Fonda/Jon Voight's hospital set war romance). However, the people were more interested in the past, turning out in droves to see "Grease," a bop about summer love in the 50s.2018-06-0500 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1977 - "Star Wars" vs. "Annie Hall"At last, the week that inspired the podcast! Few pairings encompass the People vs. Oscar debate quite like 1977 - "Star Wars" vs. "Annie Hall." It's the ultimate David and Goliath showing, as the multi-layered rom-com "Annie Hall" beat top-grossing juggernaut in Best Picture. Both films show up all over AFI lists and any conceivable "Best of All Time" list. In fact, between co-hosts Matt and Chris, each movie is an all time favorite of each of the co-hosts. Who's favorite prevails? Listen to find out.2018-05-2600 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1976 - "Rocky""Adrian! Yo Adrian!" "Rocky" was the underdog sports story that won everyone over. Made for a minimal budget, Sylvester Stallone's passion project became the highest grossing film of the year and the winner of Best Picture. This is even more incredible when one considers 1976 also had films such as "Taxi Driver," "All the Presidents Men," and "Network." How does the film hold up today? With "Creed" a massive current success, how different or similar does the original feel?2018-05-1400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1975 - "Jaws" vs. "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"Who's scarier - Jaws or Nurse Ratched? Two classic films face off in 1975. Jaws stole the crown from "The Godfather" to become the highest grossing movie of all time. This led to the birth of the blockbuster and many to fear the beaches. Meanwhile, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" became the 2nd film to sweep the top 5 categories - Picture, Director, Actor, Actress and Writing. The tale of a rebellious patient of a mental institution exemplifies the rebellious streak of a new world clashing with the rules of the old world. Which classic prevails? Listen to find out.2018-04-2400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1974 - "The Towering Inferno" vs. "The Godfather Part 2"Can a sequel defend the honor of the original? Best Picture winner "The Godfather Part 2" is widely considered one of the best sequels of all time. How does that stack up against one of the most popular disaster flicks of the 70s? "The Towering Inferno" won over audiences, as Paul Newman, Steve McQueen and many others are trapped inside a fiery skyscraper.2018-04-1000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1973 - "The Exorcist" vs "The Sting"It's con men against the devil. Two of the most successful films of all time went up against each other at both the Oscars and the Box Office. "The Exorcist," widely regarded as one of the scariest films of all time, won the box office (9th highest grossing of all time) but lost Best Picture. "The Sting," Robert Redford and Paul Newman's con man buddy flick, won Best Picture and stands today as the 20th highest grossing film of all time, adjusted for inflation. Which will the podcast choose? Listen and find out!2018-03-2800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1972 - "The Godfather"We're gonna make you an offer you can't refuse. 1972 brings us only one film this week. Frances Ford Coppola's masterpiece "The Godfather" is a cultural touchstone that tops many "Best Of" movie lists of all time. The Italian mob drama owned the box office that year, while also wrestling the Best Picture Oscar away from "Cabaret," which won the most Oscars that year. Listen to our thoughts on the film.2018-03-2100 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1971 - "Diamonds Are Forever" vs. "The French Connection"Who can take down a bad guy better - Popeye Doyle or James Bond? Gene Hackman and Sean Connery each engage in very different car chases in their respective 1971 films. Hackman won Best Actor in William Friedkin's gritty Best Picture winner "The French Connection." After stepping away from the role of James Bond for one film, Connery returned for one of the zaniest entries in the Bond franchise which includes a diamond encrusted satellite of destruction and an elephant who's good at slots.2018-03-1500 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1970 - "Love Story" vs. "Patton"Make Love not War? Let us decide. Two very films welcome us into the 1970s - both of them Oscar Best Picture nominees. "Patton" takes a look at the abrasive General Patton and was rewarded with Best Picture. "Love Story," meanwhile, tells the story of a preppy young man and a dying music major. The film wrung tears out of just about every person in 1970 and was a major blockbuster. Which did we fall for?2018-03-0700 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. OscarThe 1960s Oscars - Matt & Chris' FavoritesThe People vs Oscar has come to the end of the 1960s. What began with musicals, Disney movies and romantic comedies ended with X-rated cowboy tales, murderous western figures and whatever 2001 calls itself. Join us as we count down our own personal winners of the best of the 1960s, as well as other films from this period to check out.2018-02-2800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1969 - "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" vs. "Midnight Cowboy"People seemed to love cowboys in 1969, albeit very different sort of cowboys. It's western week on The People vs Oscar! The people flocked to see movie stars Paul Newman and Robert Redford in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid." The film takes the expectations of a traditional western and flips it on its head with charm. Meanwhile, the Oscars rewarded their first X-rated picture with "Midnight Cowboy." Jon Voight's Joe Buck isn't your traditional cowboy. He's more of a gigolo type that moves to New York to whore himself out, but ends up experiencing severe poverty with his hobbled homeless...2018-02-2000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1968 - "2001: A Space Odyssey" vs. "Oliver!"In space, no one can hear you sing! 1968 represents a crazy split between the people and Oscars. The Oscars went with their fourth musical of the decade with the G-rated Charles Dickens adaptation "Oliver!" The people, however, took a strange trip into the mind of Stanley Kubrick with "2001: A Space Odyssey." Who prevailed, the singing children or the malicious AI system? Listen to find out.2018-02-1200 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1967 - "The Jungle Book" vs "In the Heat of the Night"We have our first film with an African American protagonist in the Oscar winning detective film "In the Heat of the Night."

Listen to find out.2018-01-3000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1966 - "War & Peace" vs. "A Man For All Seasons"Russian Literature and British theater hardly sound like a raucous good time at the cinema. So how did Matt & Chris have so much fun?! The Oscars chose "A Man For All Seasons" in 1966, an play adaptation that revolves around Thomas Moore refusing to grant King Henry VIII a divorce. The highest grossing film of the year was the first of five parts of the epic "War & Peace." Despite seeming difficult to get into, both films proved to be rewarding experiences. Yet, who came out on top? Listen to find out.2018-01-2300 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1965 - "The Sound of Music"The hills were very much alive with the Sound of Music in 1965. The juggernaut musical still to this day is the #3 highest grossing movie of all time, adjusted for inflation. Back in 1965 it managed to also win five Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Director. This week, Matt and Chris sit down with super-fan Dani Gregorie to delve further into what makes "The Sound of Music" such a classic.2018-01-1500 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1964 - "Goldfinger" vs "My Fair Lady"James Bond vs. Henry Higgens // Eliza Doolittle vs. Pussy Galore It's hard to see which is the biggest crowdpleaser?

"Cleopatra" is Elizabeth Taylor's epic that, despite being the highest grossing film of the year, still did not turn a profit and nearly bankrupted 20th Century Fox. "Tom Jones," on the other hand, is a low budget English romp that holds the distinction of being the only film to have three supporting actress nominees. Who's the bigger sexpot? Tune in to find out.2017-12-2000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1962 - "Lawrence of Arabia"Journey with Matt, Chris and Special Guest Cody through our enlightening trek through the desert.

People turned out in droves for "101 Dalmatians," a classic Disney thriller with one of the most memorable villains. However, the Oscars continued to go with another musical. This time, they fell in love with "West Side Story," the engaging Romeo & Juliet tale of star crossed lovers. Which film wins our votes?

This week's People vs Oscar features two very different films. It's the rom com vs the epic. Billy Wilder's "The Apartment" mines heart and comedy from shocking workplace harassment. Meanwhile, Stanley Kubrick's "Spartacus" follows a slave who's had enough of the Roman establishment and stages an epic revolt. Which tale prevails in the end?

The film currently stands as the fourteenth highest grossing film of all time, between "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Avatar." On top of that, it took home a record 11 Oscars, an Oscar record it holds with "Titanic" and "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King." But does the film hold up to all those accolades?

It's musical week at The People vs Oscar! 1958 brings us two very different classic musicals to dive into. The Oscars gave nine Oscars (a then record) to "Gigi," a light musical that could not have aged worse against our current climate. On the other end, "South Pacific" brings us to a wartime beach for a fun romp that also struggles in spurts. Which musical gets our vote? Tune in to find out.2017-11-1000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1957 - "The Bridge on the River Kwai"Everyone in 1957 couldn't get enough of "The Bridge on the River Kwai." David Lean's epic film recounts the experience of a British officer and POW who is tasked to build a bridge for his captors. Meanwhile, his American allies seek to destroy the bridge which could help the enemy in war. The film was both the highest grossing film of the year and winner of seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture. But does the film hold up? Listen to find out.2017-10-2300 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1956 - "The Ten Commandments" vs. "Around the World in 80 Days"1956 was all about the sprawling epic. Both the People and Oscar chose three hour epics that could not be more different. Cecil B. DeMille's "The Ten Commandments," based on the Book of Exodus, was not just the highest grossing film of the year, but still stands as one of the top 10 highest grossing films of all time, adjusted for inflation. The Oscars went global with "Around the World in 80 Days," the movie equivalent of a lazy Sunday spent watching a TV stuck on The Travel Channel. Which epic won out? Listen to find out.2017-10-1300 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1955 - "Lady and the Tramp" vs. "Marty"Love and Italian food are in the air in 1955. Both the people and Oscar went for unlikely romances. "Marty" follows a lonely butcher who falls for a meek schoolteacher. Nothing says Oscar like leading man Ernest Borgnine. Meanwhile, Disney had a hit on their hands with the ultimate star crossed dog lovers in "Lady and the Tramp." Which romance made our hearts soar? Listen to find out.2017-10-0500 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1954 - "Rear Window" vs. "On the Waterfront"1954 was an embarrassment of riches. Both films this week landed on AFI's Top Movies of All Time and are housed in the National Film Registry. "Rear Window" remains one of Alfred Hitchcock's finest masterpieces and still is suspenseful today. "On the Waterfront" features some of the best writing and acting ever, including possibly the best Marlon Brando. See which one gets our vote on the latest "People vs Oscar" episode.2017-09-2500 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1953 - "Peter Pan" vs. "From Here to Eternity"What's a better vacation destination: Hawaii or Neverland? "The People vs. Oscar" takes a trip to the beach with our 1953 picks. The Disney classic "Peter Pan" transported us back to our childhood, pirates and all. Meanwhile, Oscar winner "From Here to Eternity" features two strong Hawaii set romances, even if they never converge well. Listen to see who prevailed, Captain Hook or Frank Sinatra.2017-09-1800 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1952 - "This Is Cinerama" vs. "The Greatest Show on Earth"What's the greatest form of entertainment - cinema or the circus? 1952 pits the two entertainment titans against each other. Oscar rewarded "The Greatest Show on Earth" a love letter to the grandiose nature of the circus. However, people turned out in droves to test out the latest revolution in film technology... Cinerama.2017-09-1100 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1951 - "Quo Vadis" vs. "An American in Paris"What's more grand - a Biblical epic or an old-fashioned musical extravaganza? Opulence comes front and center in 1951. The Oscars doubled down on Gene Kelly's dance focused musical romance "An American in Paris." But was there more to the film than just song and dance? The people flocked to "Quo Vadis" to watch Rome crumble. Did the movie crumble with it though? Tune in to hear who won 1951 - the people or Oscar?2017-09-0500 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1950 - "Cinderella" vs "All About Eve"Buckle up, Cinderella, it's going to be a bumpy night. Our first "People vs Oscar" episode of the 1950s pits two famous social climbers against each other.

To wrap up the decade, we choose our favorites of the decade, including Best Picture, Director, Lead Performance, Supporting Performance, Writing and Craft.2017-08-1300 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1949 - "Samson & Delilah" vs. "All The King's Men"The 40s end with two very different types of movies. "All the Kings Men" seems more timely than ever as an "every-man" politician balloons into a corrupt leader. Meanwhile, "Samson and Delilah" cements itself as a lavish relic of the past. It's spacious sets and glorious costumes exemplify the golden age of Hollywood epics. What wins: the timely political message or soapy Biblical epic?2017-08-0700 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1948 - "The Snake Pit" vs. "Hamlet"To be or not to be, that is the question all of us (especially Olivia De Havilland) have asked ourselves at one point or another. 1948 pits two very different pictures about madness against one another. Sir Laurence Olivier's "Hamlet" remains one of the most prestigious adaptations of the Shakespearian classic. Meanwhile, Olivia De Havilland headlines the blockbuster "The Snake Pit," a film about a woman committed to an insane asylum.2017-07-2700 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1947 - "Forever Amber" vs. "Gentleman's Agreement"What qualifies a prestige picture? This week features a modern drama versus a classical romance. "Gentleman's Agreement" works with a potentially problematic plot and turns in a moving, nuanced look at anti-Semitism at the time. In the wake of "Gone with the Wind," audiences flocked to "Forever Amber," an old-fashioned English romance that is light on originality.2017-07-2000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1946 - "Song of the South" vs. "The Best Years Of Our Lives"Two of our most prevalent genres are war films and Disney. This year they collide. "The Best Years of Our Lives" takes a beautiful, hard look at returning soldiers, while also working as an effective romantic drama. The controversial Disney cartoon "Song of the South" may not live up to Splash Mountain, but sure lives up to the controversy. Zip a Dee Do Dah indeed.2017-07-1400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1945 - "Mom & Dad" vs. "The Lost Weekend"Buckle up, kids. It's time to learn about sex and alcohol. 1945 brought us the educational juggernaut "Mom & Dad," which paired a family morality tale with sex ed class, complete with a live birth. While that rocked the nation and packed seats, the Oscars went with the more straightforward narrative "The Lost Weekend." Being a traditional film didn't make the tale of an alcoholic's weekend-long bender any less terrifying though. Which film walked away with our top prize?2017-07-0600 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1943 - "This is the Army" vs. "Casablanca"Not all war films are cut from the same cloth, or genre. Guest star Cody Pestana returns to People vs. Oscar to talk about two very different war films. The people chose "This is the Army," a feature length G-rated musical performance involving a very young Ronald Reagan. Oscar went with the classic romance "Casablanca" that continues to hold up as time goes by. Take a listen and let us know your thoughts.2017-06-1900 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1937 - "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" vs. "The Life of Emile Zola"A princess runs away from a potential captor and a wrongfully accused traitor dreams of leaving "Devil's Island."

This week, Chris and Matt are joined by special guest Anna Delman to break down the epic battle of Chaplin vs. Ziegfeld. Oscar went with the opulent three hour biopic "The Great Ziegfeld," which chronicles the life of legendary entertainer Florence Ziegfeld. With show-stopping feats of costuming, production design and dancing, the film is pure spectacle. Meanwhile, the biggest hit of the year belongs to Charlie Chaplin's "Modern Times." Even in the era of sound, Chaplin marries his traditional silent film persona against themes of industrialization...2017-05-0500 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1935 - "Mutiny on the Bounty"The People and Oscar agree on one thing. CLARK GABLE IN TAHITI. Seriously though, "Mutiny on the Bounty" puts our favorite dashing movie star on a ship with Charles Laughton's maniacal, power hungry captain. Did the people and Oscar agree on a good movie? See if this sea faring adventure sets sail or hits choppy water.2017-04-2400 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1934 - "The Painted Veil" vs. "It Happened One Night"Love is in the air... so is cholera. We are finally in single year Oscar years, and what a year it was. "It Happened One Night," the classic Clark Gable/Claudette Colbert rom com swept all five top Oscars.

That's the question we answer in our 1932/33 episode, which pits "King Kong" against "Cavalcade," the Best Picture winner. "King Kong" has been remade more than one can count, but is it best in its pure 100 min form? "Cavalcade" chronicles the sad years of an upper class British family as loved ones continue to die in war. Perhaps they were fighting in Skull Island? Tune in to find out who wins this week: The People or Oscar?2017-04-1000 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1930/31 - "City Lights" vs. "Cimarron"It's Western vs. Silent Classic this week on the People vs. Oscar. Best Picture winner "Cimarron" bills itself as "terrific as all creation." The western film spans decades of settling of Osage, Oklahoma and is many things, "terrific" being a stretch. That could describe the biggest hit of the year, "City Lights." Charlie Chaplin's silent masterpiece remains timeless more than 85 years later. Which do you prefer, "Cimarron" or "City Lights?" Let us know in the comments.2017-03-2700 minThe People vs. OscarThe People vs. Oscar1927/28 - "Napoleon" vs. "Wings"And so it begins... with two very different, yet oddly similar silent films. Chris and Matt embarked on a patriotic WW1 silent film "Wings," which took home best picture. From there, we braved the four hour plus epic of Abel Gantz's "Napoleon." Which did we prefer, Oscar's choice, or the highest grossing film of the time worldwide, "Napoleon"?2017-03-0700 minEl RecuentoEl RecuentoEp.64 – Oscar returns – El RecuentoSi El Recuento tuviera la potestad para poner nombres a calles o plazas, seguro que le pondríamos una a Oscar Plaza, por eso hemos recurrido (como se puede apreciar en la imagen) a un divertido sitio que hemos encontrado en la red (Tucalle.com) para otorgarle virtualmente el nombre de Oscar Plaza a una plaza. ¿Quién es Oscar?
