Here are the nominees for Best Supporting Actress: Patricia Arquette – Boyhood Laura Dern – Wild Keira Knightley – the Imitation Game Emma Stone – Birdman Meryl Streep – Into the Woods Who Should Win: Hm. Meryl is the definition of ‘legacy nominations’, I felt like Laura Dern’s character was more important to the story […]
As we’re in the middle of comparing great acting performances, I have to apply the same standard across the board. Michael Jackson, my personal favorite artist ever, probably the greatest pop star of all time. Great actor at times like Sinatra? No. Good actor even? Um…. Look, even the best actors figure out what they […]
Here are the nominees for Lead Actress: Amy Adams Cate Blanchett Sandra Bullock Judi Dench Meryl Streep Who Should Win MALIK: It’s the freshest performance in my mind, but I think the most filled out performance was Judi Dench in Philomena. Don’t think she’ll win though. ART: I agree. Judi Dench is pretty great. But, […]

Who Should Win: She’s kind of been the black sheep as […]
Some quick thoughts on this morning’s nominations… Best Picture – 9 films, wow. I called 6. Extremely Loud and War Horse haven’t been on my ‘must see’ list, but now I feel obligated… Best Actor – Gary Oldman, it’s about damn time!!!!! (yes I’m biased, been a fan for decades before he played Commissioner Gordon). […]
2010 has gotten off to a crazy start, so I’m posting my Golden Globe predictions to start the week. I doubt I’ll see any more of the films between now and Sunday, so away we go… Best Screenplay – Motion Picture Who I’d Like to Win: The Hurt Locker. And I wouldn’t be surprised if […]
Here are the nominees for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture: Anne Hathaway in “Rachel Getting Married” Angelina Jolie in “Changeling” Melissa Leo in “Frozen River” Meryl Streep in “Doubt” Kate Winslet in “The Reader” What might happen: Anything. I’m not kidding. Anne Hathaway is clearly establishing herself as the ‘Next […]
