The 95th annualAcademy Awards will be held on March 12.

Movie reviews and Academy Award predictions from longtime contributor Julie Crabb, our mom of pop culture, who gives us reviews and predictions on the latest movies and TV series.

MEADOWLANDS — This weekend is the 95th Annual Academy Awards show.

Every year, Julie Crabb is on the beat of the Academy Awards. Who will win? Who will host? How long will the broadcast last? Will only white men win?

Longtime Friday morning contributor and Green Cheese host Crabb is always in the know about the latest and greatest and maybe overhyped films that have been nominated.

One of her main comments for the year was length. In her opinion, the best film nominees were all too long.

And, she wishes Marcel the Shel with Shoes On would win best animated film, though Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio is the frontrunner.
