The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are sprucing up for the big night at the Oscars and making their predictions and then tying in an awards-season edition of their favorite game, So Shalit Be. The guys also chat about whether anyone has ever played the game Mouse Trap, the ubiquitous of Eric Roberts, whether a "9 to 5" remake can work in this new post-Me Too era, Shakespeare's inspiration for Othello, the missed opportunity of a modern "Death Wish," the glory of "Game Night," and mansplaining how Gal Gadot should pronounce her own name. Available on iTunes. Episode 205 includes: -Kevin Smith almost died and Joss Whedon is bowing out of Batgirl -Did somebody make "The Shape of Water" earlier, but with a dolphin and a deaf woman? -Gropers of the Week: Ryan Seacrest, Alex Jones. -Ben rails against the live-action "Full Metal Alchemist" and the sci-fi thriller "Annihilation." -"Red Sparrow" doesn't have the conviction to own its sundry genre elements, even with the naked J-Law. -This Week's Pitch -- None! -Bonus Discussion: Oscar Predictions! -The guys make their predictions for most of the categories for Hollywood's big night. -This Week's Game -- So Shalit Be! -The guys play the pun-happy, Gene Shalit-friendly game, this time coming up with Shalit critical blurbs for all 9 of the Best Picture nominees.
