It's Oscars week and Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling are both up for big awards (and should win) for Poor Things and Barbie . But we're not here to talk about those movies. Instead Nic and Sean come on to tear apart the duo's 2016 Oscar-winning Damien Chazzelle romantic musical, La La Land . We go deep into how their dazzling chemistry stands in for actually written charachters, how the musical numbers are instantly forgettable, the hollowness of any themes and nostalgia Chazzelle gestures towards, Emma Stone being the freakin' best, Across the Universe , and raise a vital question: is this a Spider-Gwen movie?
