Movie of the Year: 1982

Finale Part Two


1982's Movie of the Year Finale Part Two is here; which of these amazing films will take home the most coveted prize in Hollywood?

Well, here we are at the end of another amazing season. And not just of our show--these movies were pretty good too. Dang, how can we chose just one of these to be 1982's Movie of the Year? Can't we just say they all win and then apologize for being huge cowards? Well, I asked Mike and he said "no," and reminded me I promised not to call him when I know he's at work. But that begs the question: Is Mike still at work? I'll just give him a ringsy to see.

He is.

Is E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial too obvious to win it all? Maybe we'll want to get cute and choose 1982's other alien visitor from another land: the thing, star of The Thing. If we wanted to be really "cool" or "hip" we could pick the obscure-but-transcendent Fitzcarraldo. Poltergeist is the fourth-ranked movie in the bracket, but it is hard to see any world where it has a chance to win it all. I doubt it will even take home any Mooties.

But Mooties will be going out to several lucky performers. These awards allow us to indicate who did bad, who did good, and who did bad good.

Make sure to also:

While Americans overwhelmingly support the right of an individual to make their own decisions about abortion, unfortunately, that right is no longer protected everywhere in the U.S.

The Supreme Court overturned Roe versus Wade on June 24th.

Abortion is a basic healthcare need for the millions of people who can become pregnant. Everyone should have the freedom to decide what’s best for themselves and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy. This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety, and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions.

Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health and independence of all Americans. Even if you live in a state where abortion rights are upheld, access to safe medical procedures shouldn’t be determined by location, and it shouldn’t be the privilege of a small few.

You can help by donating to local abortion funds. To find out where to donate for each state, visit donations4abortion.com.

If you or someone you know needs help, or if you want to get more involved, here are 5 resources:

1.  Shout Your Abortion is a campaign to normalize abortion.

2. Don’t Ban Equality is a campaign for companies to take a stand against abortion restrictions.

3. Abortion.cafe has information about where to find clinics.

4. PlanCPills.org provides early at-home abortion pills that you can keep in your medicine cabinet. And five.

5. Choice.crd.co has a collection of these resources and more.

You can also find links to all of these resources and more info at podvoices.help
