Weekly Blend #170 - It's That Time Again

It was the big week for awards season, with the Oscar and Razzie nominations coming out. We give you our first reactions to the nominations - what made us happy, what we wish had happened, and how we feel the Academy missed an opportunity for evolution. You'll also hear our reviews of Underworld: Rise of the Lycans and Inkheart, and a discussion on the state of the horror genre, and what directors are doing to change it. (Special Guest: Zeshan Khan)
