The best picture drama, here are carol, mad max, fury, room, the revenant, spotlight. Nominations for five. Did we not say danish girl, was that snubbed for best picture . Yes, it was snubbed. Im surprised because the stars of that are Cate Blanchett and ruini mara, they were mad max was a big surprise. And George Miller was nominated for director. We love her, Charlize Theron was not nominated. A lot of people havent seen these movies because some of them are not even out yet. What movie is that . What movie is that . A lot of them are just getting to the theater. So we also the danish girl as we said Eddie Redmayne and his costar all right, lets move on. All righty. Hoda wants to move on today. We want to say hello to her, dont we . No, shes not on the phone. We had this big huge open worked out and then somebody hung up the phone. It was going to be good. It was going to be great. I wish you could have seen it. Lets go back to the movies. Will smith nominated for concussion which doesnt come out until Christmas Day. Two of my favorite things, can i just mention one of my favorite things . Empire, taraji p. Henson nominated. And lee yev schreiber. Radon van. Didnt i say just how much i love ray donovan, everybody said weve been watching it for years. Was he nominated last year too . Yeah. We cant even get right whats this year. And lady gaga for her role in fxs American Horror show, hotel, or Something Like that. One that everybody was happy about, Sylvester Stallone was nominated for creed. He was good in black mask. And bridge of spies, spielberg . Heres best picture musical comedy. I want to see almost all of these. The big short. First of all, can you believe thats a musical or comedy . Its nice to have different category, but sometimes it seems a little strange. Look at the other joy, the martian which ive seen. Would you say thats a comedy . No, its definitely not a musical. Spy and train wreck. Okay. And the martian did get three nominations. Thats a great movie. Im glad matt did because he was snubbed for the s. A. G. Awards the other day, he didnt get a nomination for that. Amy schumer was nominated for train wreck. And Melissa Mccarthy got a nomination for spy. Anyway, some more mature women as well were happy for. Jane fonda. And lily tomlin. Lets move on to other things, shall we . We have Christian Slater . Oh, this is so exciting.

But it seems that blake going to be back and neither were the rest of them. The coaches sat down with extra for an interview. Take a look. Season nine has been hugely success successful, but for you guys, what has been a standout moment . I think gwen has been a standout moment like every show. Standout moment every look at her. We were just saying how we werent the same. Even pharrell. Somehow when gwen walks in the room, we all look like weve been wearing the same outfit why cant we have a fifth coach . Why cant we have two females . Why cant we . That would be cool. I vote for that. You know what, as nice as it is to see their blossoming romance, what if they break up though and then she came back as a judge . People would love that. It would be awkward.
