And we're back with week 3 of the NBP Film Awards as we countdown the very best of 2016 leading up to this year's Oscar ceremony. For this week we countdown our favorite villains, death scenes, horror/scifi films, animated films & voiceover performances. There is a slight dip in audio quality for the first 18 minutes but things get back to normal after that with some shocking reveals and disagreements amongst the team resulting in one of our most fun podcast episodes yet.

For our second review of the week, Kristen Lopez and I review Martin Scorsese's latest film "Silence" starring Andrew Garfield, Adam Driver & Liam Neeson.

Last week we gave you Part 1 of the NBP Film Awards on The Next Best Picture Podcast and now we are here in week two with another set of awards from all members of the team here.

For this week's main review on the Next Best Picture Podcast, we review Pablo Larrain's buzzed about biopic "Jackie" starring Natalie Portman.

It's a light week as far as Oscar news goes in the wake of the Holidays, so we take the opportunity to answer fan questions and see where that takes us as we wrap up 2016 and look forward to our End of Year Awards.

For this week's review of "Passengers," I am joined by a special guest from the UK, Sarah Buddery from sarahsawamovie.com, who joined us last time for our review of "The Girl On The Train."

Our second review for the week is the current Best Picture frontrunner "La La Land." Does it totally meet the hype which has surrounded this film since its premiere at Venice? Listen in as we find out.

This week on the main review for the Next Best Picture podcast, we are going to a galaxy far far away with a review of "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story." Kristen Lopez joins me for this one as we talk about all of the highs and lows of Gareth Edwards' latest.

In episode 16, we react to the SAG Award Nominations and how they impact the acting races moving forward. We respond to the Academy's many shortlists which were released for various categories.

This is a JAM PACKED episode that I wish I had gotten out yesterday but there was a lot of content to go through and discuss, so while part of the conversation may be a moot point after tomorrow (Discussing SAG Nomination Predictions) we hope you can enjoy this episode as much as we did recording it with our special guest for the first time on the Next Best Picture Podcast, from AwardsWatch.com Erik Anderson.

For this week our 2nd review is Jessica Chastain's now Golden Globe nominated (Best Actress Drama) starring film, "Miss Sloane." We have the entire gang on here to review this one and it's a great deal of fun.

This week we are taking a break from our standard Oscar fare and are turning our attention towards some good old fashion Holiday cheer. That cheer comes in the form of laughter from some of television's biggest comedy names in "Office Christmas Party." But is it any good?

For our final review of the week, we tackle Paul Verhoeven's contender for Best Foreign Language Film, "Elle."

This week on episode 14, we talk about the first critics awards out of the gate for the 2016 awards season. The National Board Of Review, New York Film Critics Circle and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association each handed out their awards to three different films making the beginning of the race very exciting.

On this week's main review we discuss Kenneth Lonergan's big Oscar player, "Manchester By The Sea."
