The latest Current Cinema episode primarily revolves around Jeff and Kyle's thoughts on Zack Snyder's latest, Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver. We also briefly mention Civil War and follow-up on Jeff's 2024 Oscars predictions, because we couldn't only talk about how bad Rebel Moon was, so enjoy the chaos!

Jeff from the Current Gen podcast returns for a solo excursion of sorts, picking those he feels are most likely to win an Oscar at this year's Academy Awards! 2023 was a great year for film, as we discussed last week, and this year's Oscars mostly reflect that, so some of these picks were trickier than expected, but still many funs were had.
