With Bridget off duty this week, the lovely Jenny Pan joins us all the way from Canada to talk about the Oscars Fail, Logan and a quick round of Would you Rather? We also discuss Disney’s announcement of Lefou’s sexual orientation in the Beauty and the Beast remake. If that weren’t enough, Sam comments on your comments as some of his impersonations.
Question of the Week: Does it matter at all if the Academy messed up? What do you think of the whole ‘first LGBT character’ in a Disney movie?
Let us know your thoughts in the comments and Sam will read them next week. Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook so you can send us direct messages and get podcast updates. Be sure to subscribe on iTunes and/or Stitcher, where you can also rate/review the podcast if you like it!

Sidenotes- At some point, Sam and Adonis’s voices cut out a bit and it is hard to understand them. Sorry about that. I like to think their true robot forms emerged for a few seconds.
