We’re back again folks! Boy the last year has been an eventful one around the world and especially in the glitzy world of Hollywood. From massive sexual harassment shake-ups to endless debates on removing a mustache with CGI, there isn’t a topic that hasn’t been convered by everyone at some point. This year brings an exceptional group of nominees for the 2018 Academy Awards and we’re psyched to see who takes the gold. If you haven't seen this yet, you can join the JoBlo Oscar Prediction Contest and win some great prizes! Exclusive hint: "The Jungle Book" will win Best VFX! Guaranteed pick! *wink wink*
Now we get to the coolest part though which is that starting on Sunday at 8pm EST sharp, you can join myself and dozens of people in our annual Oscar chat room which will be hosted on this very same page so bookmark it! If you have a Twitter or Facebook account, you can join in or just as a Guest. Whatever you want. It's always a blast and we filled the room last year. Talk shit about the crappy speeches, cheer on the winners, see how many times Trump and sexual harassment in Hollywood will be addressed and so much more! Speaking of Twitter, if you happen to be mobile or out-and-about during the ceremony, our very own EIC Paul Shirey also be hosting our LIVE TWITTER FEED (@JoBlo Twitter page) for all the latest updates on the event plus some laughs along the way. Hope to see you there!
