But little else about <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/2022-oscars-guide-what-to-know-80a8b80d4856ab1aa42c2f3f6faf197d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">how this year\u2019s Oscars will get underway<\/a> is traditional. An hour before the broadcast begins, attendees will assemble in the Dolby <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/academy-awards-entertainment-music-arts-and-entertainment-01de49b2ddeeaa64d0dba6e594641777\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">for the presentation of eight awards and acceptance speeches<\/a> that will be edited into a broadcast that producer Will Packer has promised will be a tight three hours.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>It\u2019s one of many shifts, both slight and tectonic, around this year\u2019s ceremony. After two years of pandemic \u2014 and <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/oscars-2021-guide-67f5600e59179e1161d2db3ba48ad31d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">a socially distanced 2021 edition<\/a> with <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/health-arts-and-entertainment-entertainment-academy-awards-television-d17308440bfa7388a2d21ca8c2d7fee8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">record-low ratings<\/a> \u2014 the Academy Awards will try to recapture their exalted place in pop culture with a revamped telecast that\u2019s expected to see a streaming service win best picture for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>It won\u2019t be easy. The film industry recovered significantly from the pandemic in 2021, but despite one of the biggest hits in years in \u201cSpider-Man: No Way Home,\u201d the rebound has been fitful. The global movie industry <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/covid-entertainment-technology-health-united-states-cf700ea8b09310d7223316a071b5af03\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">sold about half the tickets last year as it did two years ago<\/a>, $21.3 billion in 2021 compared to $42.3 billion in 2019, according to the Motion Picture Association. Hollywood pushed more of its top films directly into homes than ever before; half of this year\u2019s 10 best-picture nominees were streamed at or very near release. Even the film academy shifted entirely to a streaming platform for voters, rather than DVD screeners.<\/p>\n<p>Then there are the challenges of commanding worldwide attention for a night of Hollywood self-congratulation after two years of pandemic and while <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/russia-ukraine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">Russia\u2019s war ravages Ukraine.<\/a> Packer has said the war in Ukraine will be respectfully acknowledged during the broadcast.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Netflix\u2019s \u201cThe Power of the Dog,\u201d Jane Campion\u2019s gothic western, comes in <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/oscar-nominations-academy-awards-6072fc4d4f4c03842a1d1df5d47984b4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">with a leading 12 nominations<\/a> and a good chance of snagging the top award. But <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/oscars-entertainment-arts-and-entertainment-movies-dfcdc511b1096170e0374c0df4e1e7af\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">all the momentum is with Sian Heder\u2019s deaf family drama \u201cCODA,\u201d<\/a> which, despite boasting just three nods, is considered the favorite. A win would be a triumph for Apple TV+, which acquired the movie out of the Sundance Film Festival last year and has spent big promoting it to academy members.<\/p>\n<p>But expect the most awards on the night to go to <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/entertainment-arts-and-entertainment-denis-villeneuve-601b3e1c782bb4623760899a6d51c4b2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">\u201cDune,\u201d Denis Villeneuve\u2019s sweeping science fiction epic<\/a>.

Producers have also lined up a star-studded group of performers including Billie Eilish and Beyonc\u00e9 to sing nominated songs, while the <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/covid-entertainment-health-movies-arts-and-entertainment-69df9a75ea38bfe5e68194048a98ccaf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">\u201cEncanto\u201d cast will perform Lin-Manuel Miranda\u2019s breakout hit \u201cWe Don\u2019t Talk About Bruno.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>It will be a staggered start, with stars making their way into the Dolby at different times. ABC\u2019s red carpet preshow will run 6:30 to 8 p.m., with the first hour of awards happening inside the theater between 7-8 p.m. News of those winners will spread first on social media and later be woven into the telecast. To accommodate the shift, the red carpet will also open an hour earlier than usual, at 4 p.m. Eastern.<\/p>\n<p>The rejiggered approach, which has been deeply unpopular with some academy members, should make for some complicated red-carpet logistics. The academy, wanted to give each winner an uncompromised moment, is urging attendees to be in their seats by 7 p.m. Some stars, like \u201cThe Eyes of Tammy Faye\u201d nominee Jessica Chastain, have said they won\u2019t do red carpet interviews if it means missing the presentation of awards like best hair and makeup, for which the artists of \u201cTammy Faye\u201d are nominated.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B3\" class=\"a8d adSo\"><\/figure>\n<p>That\u2019s one of the eight pre-show categories to be handed out during what producers are calling the \u201cgolden hour.\u201d The others are: film editing, sound, original score, production design, live-action short, animated short and documentary short.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, more than 70 Oscar winners, including James Cameron, Kathleen Kennedy and Guillermo del Toro, warned that the change would turn some nominees into \u201csecond-class citizens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Behind the change is alarm over the Oscars fast-falling ratings. While drops have been common to all major network award shows, last year\u2019s show attracted only about 10 million viewers, less than half of the 23.6 million the year before. A decade ago, it was closer to 40 million.<\/p>\n<p>To help restore the Oscars\u2019 position, some argued in the lead-up to this year\u2019s awards that a blockbuster like \u201cSpider-Man: No Way Home\u201d should have been nominated for best picture. It\u2019s up for just visual effects.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, a wide gamut of films are in the hunt, ranging from the much-watched Netflix apocalyptic comedy \u201cDon\u2019t Look Up\u201d and the <a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/covid-entertainment-health-movies-arts-and-entertainment-69df9a75ea38bfe5e68194048a98ccaf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">roundly acclaimed three-hour Japanese drama \u201cDrive My Car.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>One thing producers have promised: the night\u2019s final award will be best picture. Last year\u2019s show concluded awkwardly with the unexpected presentation of best actor to a not-present Anthony Hopkins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LOS ANGELES (AP) \u2014 For the first time in two years, the Academy Awards are rolling out the red carpet at Los Angeles\u2019 Dolby Theatre for what the film academy<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1402946","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1402946","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1402946"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1402946\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1402946"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1402946"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1402946"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
