In a coincidence begat by a half-year delay in recording, Here Are the Nominees takes a look back at Ridley Scott's war classic just in time for Veteran's Day. This reverent re-telling of the Battle of Mogadishu is notable for its gritty, realistic immersion into the fog of war and serves as a reminder that anti-war films can still be pro-military. We take a look at Scott's career, this incredibly deep cast, and how BHD fared at the 74th Academy Awards.

Thank God for double episodes. If they didn't have double episodes, they wouldn't have gotten the idea for the regular ones! Here Are the Nominees would be remiss if we didn't acknowledge the wild ceremony and fairly tame award selections for the recent 94th Academy Awards, so first we do exactly that, discussing the winners and, generally, wha' happened. Then we wrap up with a look at Christopher Guest's 2003 Best Original Song-nominated folk mockumentary. Is David going to hold out in his distaste for Guest's comic style, or will there be a kiss at the end of this rainbow? Listen to find out!

Michigan State Ph.D. candidate Kate Dibiasky has made a terrifying discovery - Brent and David's microphones still work! Worried that our one movie a month pace might cause us to run out of movies by the year 3800, we took an 8 month break to let the Oscars get a better headstart. We're back to talk about Adam McKay's comet comedy nominated for four Academy Awards this month. We're still knocking off the rust, so hopefully this won't be a total disaster (this is where McKay would cut to a quick scene making sure you understand my use of the word disaster is a reference to the film's plot, because you probably couldn't have figured that out). Give it a listen!

To listen to this episode, hop on your lightbike and go inside your computer! You'll need a casually placed laser, so head on over to your nearest small game developer/megacorporation and pick one up, then join us all in the HATN mainframe where we discuss 1982's Tron, which was nominated for two Academy Awards - neither of which was for visual effects!
