“Peaches” (The Super Mario Bros. Movie) is the textbook definition of a silly pipe dream. Let’s not kid ourselves, the song is just not substantial enough to be worth a BOS discussion—a luxury songs like “Can You Hear Me Now” (The Art of Self-Defense), “The Dead Don’t Die” (The Dead Don’t Die), “Lost in the Woods” (Frozen II), and last year’s “Lucky Ducks” (The Bob’s Burgers Movie) didn’t even receive.
As far as new releases that have come out so far, there’s only one theoretical contender in my book at the moment:
<span class=”embed-youtube” style=”text-align:center; display: block;”>[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WydRjcfQUhM?version=3&rel=1&showsearch=0&showinfo=1&iv_load_policy=1&fs=1&hl=en-US&autohide=2&wmode=transparent%5D</span>There are multiple reasons why “Peaches” won’t get nominated. But a man can dream because I have listened to it more than almost any other song released in 2022 and 2023. But yeah, it’s not gonna happen, but it would be cool.

What the hell? I mean it’s a good song but I did not expect that. I like it when novelty/comedy songs crack the Hot 100.

It gives me actors an opportunity to get nominated. If they stuck to just acting in general without gender in mind, half of the potential nominees would be cut.

(Yes, really. MAKE IT HAPPEN OSCARS!)April 11, 2023 at 12:58 pm #1205386180It doesn’t have a shot in hell, but if “Peaches” could get in for The Super Mario Bros. Movie, it would easily be my favourite Original Song nomination since “Everything is Awesome”. The film is taking over the Internet and shattered box office records and the song is one of the few things that critics unanimously praised. Plus it peaked at #14 on iTunes.
But I still think it isn’t going to get in.

(Yes, really. MAKE IT HAPPEN OSCARS!)April 10, 2023 at 7:13 pm #1205385179The Super Mario Bros. Movie made more money on its opening weekend than any animated film in history. $375,000,000+ in just 5 days.
Also, the original song “Peaches” sung by Jack Black, which peaked at #14 on iTunes, is eligible for the Academy Award for Best Original Song.

(Yes, really. MAKE IT HAPPEN OSCARS!)April 4, 2023 at 4:32 pm #1205378104Reviews have come in. While the film has received largely mixed reviews from critics, it looks like the audiences from what I have seen on social media have been very positive.
It seems to me like this is a movie that fans of Mario will love, but those who have no interest or no idea about the franchise will think is just mid.
Still I am excited to see it, and expect this film to CLEAN UP at the box office.

(Yes, really. MAKE IT HAPPEN OSCARS!)March 19, 2023 at 7:47 pm #1205357431Yeah but there isn’t enough mainstream artists right now that identify as non-binary to have a category. Though I guess it would be interesting if there were a bunch of unknowns in the “Best Song by a Gender Non-Conforming Artist” if that was the case.

Folks, Mario is going to DOMINATE the box office.
