After Nearly Two Decades Panic! At The Disco Is Closing The Door On Music

Panic! At The Disco was at the very heart of the music of the generation with a nearly 20-year-long career the group has undergone some big changes and has made massive strides. However yesterday it was announced that Bredon Urie, the group's lead singer and one of the founders is departing from the band.

According to People, the 35-year-old singer started the band alongside his childhood friends. Though after an Instagram post made by the band's official account. It turns out they will be ending their long-running journey this year. This came rather suddenly to fans, but to the band, this was a planned announcement, as Brendon, also announced that he and his wife are expecting a baby this year!

So while it may be heartbreaking to many fans, this is exciting news for Brendon and his family as he plans to put his full focus into becoming a father, though he was eager to show his love for the fans who have supported him throughout the years as he pushed for what will be the bands final 'Viva Las Vengeance tour' starting next month.

Considering the band has released amazing albums and has stayed relevant throughout the music and pop community their journey is one that has and will continue to inspire artists to follow their dreams.

This year's Oscar nominations had its share of surprses. First, Everything Everywhere All At Once swept the competition, with a whopping 11 nods. The film joins a few other films who also had 11 nods: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), The Godfather (1972), Saving Private Ryan (1998) and Joker (2019), to name a few.

As far as music goes, 82 songs from this year’s movies have qualified to enter the competition, Variety reports. Up to three songs can be entered per film, but most studios choose to enter just one or sometimes two in order to maximize the chance of one of them making the shortlist. Curiously, five films entered three songs apiece: 18 1/2, Killing Me Softly With His Songs, Me Vasantrao, 1660 Vine and Tuzhyasathi Kahihi.

See below who we, and the internet, believe were snubbed or surprised to get nominated:

This person on Twitter said it best: "Viola Davis not being nominated by The Woman King while we have a atrocity that was Blonde with Ana de Armas nominated, it's beyond revolting."

It was quite shocking Cameron was not nominated as best director for the Avatar sequel, as he was nominated in 2010 for the first movie for directing, film editing and best picture.

Tom Cruise hasn't been nominated for an Oscar since 2000 with his supporting role in Magnolia. Michael Caine won that year for The Cider House Rules. And he has never won an Oscar. With Top Gun: Maverick being quite a success (96% Rotten Tomatoes), some fans were anticipating him to be at least nominated for the reprised role.

The absence of Doja Cat’s “Vegas” from Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis was likely ruled ineligible because it wasn’t entirely original: it interpolates the Presley ’50s classic “Hound Dog."

Fans were confused as to why Jamie Lee Curtis was nominated for best supporting actress when there were others who could (and should) have been given the nomination -- Keke being one of them for her performance as Emerald Haywood.

Many fans of Babylon pointed out how Ana de Armas was nominated for a "not so great performance in an insulting movie but Margot Robbie isn't for an amazing performance in a masterpiece."

Though recognized for best sound, The Batman was not nominated for the best cinematography or best score nominations.

Though Angela Bassett made history just by being the first actress nominated for a Marvel film, Coogler should have at least been in the conversation given that he had re-written the sequel to reflect the death of Chadwick Boseman and his character, T'Challa.

Jordan Peele's Nope received zero nominations and we think there could have been some recognition for the talented director. His first movie, Get Out, was nominated for multiple Academy Awards -- including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay, which he won. Since then, Peele has been shut out of the Oscar race entirely. Us failed to receive a single nomination, despite an outstanding lead performance from Lupita Nyong’o, and history repeated itself with Nope.

One Twitter user hilariously postulated why NOPE may have been shut out: "NOPE said in no uncertain terms that Hollywood is a spectacle machine that ruins everything it touches, breaks good people and chews up living things, spitting what’s left all over the Southern California landscape.

Academy members:"

Hsu was the only member of the film that hasn't been acknowledged much this awards season for her role as Evelyn Wang's (Michelle Yeoh) daughter, Joy. Now, the actress has secured her nomination, which she so rightfully earned.

Bassett became the first actress to be nominated for an Oscar for their performance in a Marvel movie. We remember watching the sequel in theaters and *spoiler alert* when Bassett's Queen Ramonda dies, everyone in that theater was crying because she was all of our mothers at the moment.

Of all the nominations, most people were really mad about Jamie Lee Curtis being nominated as best supporting actress. Most folks either seriously questioned what she brought to Everything Everywhere, while others named other Dolly's Abigail as who they thought was more deserving of the nod.

Of the best cinematography nominations, the Korean romance film should have been considered over the ones chosen by the Academy. Fans of the film shared their frustrations on Twitter, with one person saying, "yeah, not that I really care about the Oscars anymore, but Decision to Leave was far and away the best movie of 2022, and the fact that it's been crowded out by some incredibly overhyped films is annoying."

Skarsgard delivered a brilliant performance in this Robert Eggers-directed flick as a Viking who meets a seeress who reminds him to save his mother, kill his uncle and avenge his father.

Horror movies were snubbed, as they usually are in the Academy Awards, but that didn't stop Twitter from wanting to recognize Goth's performance in A24's slasher, Pearl. One fan wrote, "Mia Goth had one of the best performances of the year and the fact that she’s being overlooked from Oscars,Emmys, Golden Globes, etc because Pearl was horror is sick."

Fans of the Timothee Chalamet and Taylor Russell romance horror film felt robbed for not having been nominated for this year's Oscars. One person described it as "titanic but for weird people."

Though it seems like Swift has been winning in every category she's been nominated in over the last year, the musician's song "Carolina" was not recognized by the Academy. Folks on Twitter gave mixed feelings about her absence, despite having three projects in contention. One user wrote, "Ohhh well, maybe she can try her luck at the Kids Choice Awards?!"
