In case you haven’t had a chance to check it out yet, I AM GROOT is now available to stream on Disney+! This absolutely adorable Series of Animated Shorts – five in total and directed/written by Kirsten Lepore – center on our beloved tree-like Humanoid, Baby Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel). These Shorts really give him the space that we wanted so badly after meeting him in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise. And we get a glimpse into his origins and place in the grand scheme within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Over the span of five episodes at about five minutes each, which literally can be consumed over the course of a commute, we go way back to the start. Tended to by robots who notice a crack in this little sapling’s pot, this little firecracker refuses to be replaced by a Bonsai Tree. In a jealous fit, he finds himself thrown to the floor and forced to learn how to take his first steps and walk. We learn Groot can dance really well even when he meets Iwua (Trevor Devall), a shape-shifting alien who mimics him, and we even witness him take his first bath to ultimately meeting Rocket (Bradley Cooper) as they embark on what will be an important friendship.
The animation is just absolutely stunning and the Shorts really capture Baby Groot‘s naughty but lovable essence and we wouldn’t be surprised if we get even more to come. How do you now fall in love with Baby Groot seeing his expressive and pensive eyes? These quick little hits give us just that bit of a lift that we need to go about our day in better spirits! Catch them now on Disney+.
Dear Oscars, Bradley Cooper is coming from you. You won’t believe his jaw-dropping transformation in these new stills from MAESTRO.
Directed: Bradley Cooper (Academy Award® Nominee)
Cast: Bradley Cooper (Academy Award® Nominee), Carey Mulligan (Academy Award® Nominee), Matt Bomer, Maya Hawke
Produced by: Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, Kristie Macosko Krieger, Bradley Cooper, Fred Berner, Amy Durning

Nominations for the 91st annual Academy Awards were announced this morning and the race still very much is wide-open without a clean-cut choice for Best Picture… and no host set for ceremony itself.
Tying at ten nods apiece are Alfonso Cuarón‘s ROMA and Yorgos Lanthimos’ THE FAVOURITE. Best Picture nominees include:
Best Picture
Black Panther
BlacKkKlansman
Bohemian Rhapsody
The Favourite
Green Book
Roma
A Star Is Born
Vice
Continuing on its Golden Globes success, we see Bohemian Rhapsody continue to be a major force into the Oscars with Rami Malek up for the highly-competitive Best Actor alongside Bradley Cooper, Viggo Mortensen, Willem Dafoe and Christian Bale.
The Best Actress category also is hotly-contested with screen veteran Glenn Close up against Lady Gaga, Melissa McCarthy, Olivia Colman and aboriginal Mexican Actress Yalitza Aparicio, who stars in ROMA.
Marina de Tavira who also stars in ROMA, pops-up as a bit of a surprise candidate for Best Supporting Actress. The category also includes favourite Regina King, Amy Adams, plus The Favourite Co-Stars and previous Oscar winners, Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz.
Best Supporting Actor sees Mahershala Ali in contention with Adam Driver, Richard E. Grant, Sam Rockwell after a snub at the Golden Globes, Sam Elliott for A STAR IS BORN.
Many are shocked that after a presence in the Directing category most of Awards Season, that Bradley Cooper was omitted in the Oscars race for his directorial debut in A STAR IS BORN. Up for Best Directing are Spike Lee, Adam McKay, Pawel Pawlikowski, Yorgos Lanthimos and favourite Alfonso Cuarón.
Another noticeable omission is Morgan Neville’s Mr. Rogers Documentary WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR? which has been present through much of the season. Nominated for Best Documentary are Free Solo, Hale County, This Morning, This Evening, Minding the Gap, Of Fathers and Sons and RBG.
The Animated Feature category sees Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse pitted against Incredibles 2, Isle of Dogs, Mirai and Ralph Breaks the Internet.
Toronto’s Domee Shi is up for Animated Short with Disney•Pixar’s BAO.
Complete list of Nominees are here.
The 91st annual Academy Awards air February 24, 2019, 8:00 PM EST on ABC.
