The Oscar Project
After a few full months of new Oscar winners and nominees coming to Netflix, August is sort of a dud. The good news is that even with some films that may be lower down on the pecking order in terms of greatest Oscar nominees ever, we do get the fantastic film Gangs of New York later in the month. It holds a rather dubious distinction but you'll have to check out the write-up below to find out what it is. I also decided to add something to this monthly post. With Netflix continuously bringing in new content, they have to get rid of some stuff that's been up there for a while. So I'm including a list of the Oscar nominees and winners that will be disappearing off of Netflix (at least for now) in the month of August. I'm not providing a full recap, just the nominations and wins but check that list out at the end of the post.

Quentin Tarantino's 9th film shows up in cinemas this weekend as the only major wide release. Chances are it won't be as big as any of the recent releases from Disney, but will hold its own. There are also a few documentaries releasing this week that stand a good chance of getting an Oscar nomination this time around so keep your eyes out for them as well. We get our weekly releases a few days early this week with the July 4th holiday landing on a Thursday. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean that there will be much in the way of big films hitting theaters as we already had the biggest release of the week on Tuesday. Horror if the name of the game in the only wide release tomorrow so if that's your game, check it out. There are also several films that have been out for a few weeks that are good family fun including Toy Story 4, Aladdin, and The Secret Life of Pets 2. It's been two months since we found out what happened to the Avengers crew in Endgame. While the film was "re-released" last weekend with some additional footage included, the best reason to go see it again arrives in theaters this week. Bumped up from it's original July 5th release date to July 2nd, Spider-Man: Far From Home picks up where Endgame left off. If you haven't seen Endgame, don't watch the trailer below since it contains major spoilers for that film. If you have seen it, you know that there is a major shift in the power dynamic following that film, and based on the trailer, Spider-Man is going to be asked to step up and fill the void. |
