This episode, we go into the decades-long effort to make the category happen, how we want to see the category presented on the monumental telecast, how the 1970s’ craze of disaster movies might have influenced the category, Tom Cruise and the influence of the Mission: Impossible franchise, and of course, our picks for ten films in movie history that we would award with a Stunts Oscar.
