  • Precursor: 4th Latino Journalists Nominations (2021)

    Outside of the support of films like Encanto and In the Heights, this group’s selections look like most of the others. Nominations Tallies (13) West Side Story (12) The Power of the Dog (10) Dune (8) Encanto (6) Nightmare Alley, tick, tick…BOOM! (4) CODA, In the Heights, No Time to Die The Nominations

  • 94th Oscar Preview: Precursor Winners & Losers, Week 12

    As the precursor awards continue unabated until Oscar night, I’m going to be providing a weekly update highlighting the films that have won and lost momentum through the precursor awards (and in some cases other outside influences). With only two precursors this past week, there isn’t much to say. Since the Vancouver critics don’t have…

  • Precursor: 22nd Vancouver Critics Canadian Nominations (2021)

    The Canadian list always seems to come down to the same titles over and over again. They don’t have the output of the US, so that’s not surprising, but almost none of these films made any crossover appeal. Nominations Tallies (7) Night Raiders (5) All My Puny Sorrows, Scarborough (3) Be Still, The White Fortress…

  • Precursor: 22nd Vancouver Critics Nominations (2021)

    Vancouver is really late the game and their selections just aren’t that interesting as a result. They make odd choices and The Power of the Dog takes the most nominations, but doesn’t get in for either actor or screenplay, two of the odder choices. The Canadian film nominations haven’t been announced and I have no…

  • Precursor: 13th Make-Up Artists Guild Awards (2021)

    Leave it to the Make-Up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild voters to do something unexpected. They went hard for Coming 2 America while leaving Dune in the dust and even went so far as to go left-field with their period hair styling award. Awards Tallies (3) Coming 2 America The Awards

  • Precursor: 24th Film Music Critics Awards (2021)

    If a group wanted to make a case for its own irrelevancy, this kis the kind of slate they would honor. When they weren’t falling all over themselves to honor Disney movies, they were going for obscure titles that most people haven’t even heard of. Awards Tallies (2) Coppelia The Awards

  • 94th Oscar Preview: Precursor Winners & Losers, Week 11

    As the precursor awards continue unabated until Oscar night, I’m going to be providing a weekly update highlighting the films that have won and lost momentum through the precursor awards (and in some cases other outside influences). Nothing happened last week…unless you count the actual nominations, which is what we’re here for. Let’s see how…

  • 2021 Oscar Nominations Predictions: Our Statistics

    Based on our nominations predictions, here’s how we did. With such an uncharacteristic year, it was an incredibly close competition for some. We had a tie this year for most correct predictions. Last year, the top person got 82. This year, it was 86 and those two who got that many write were Peter J.…

  • 94th Oscar Nominations

    And here we have the Oscar nominations for the best films of 2021. There were many surprises, some of them good, some of them great, some of them not so good. The Power of the Dog came out the big winner, surprisingly topping even Dune. Those Production Design and Sound nominations announcement early told us…

  • Precursor: 42nd Golden Raspberry Nominations (2021)

    A little more irrelevant than usual, considering their selection of several films no one has probably heard of. Picking on a filmed stage musical is the lowest of the low-hanging fruit. Not sure what the point of that is. The most interesting thing about this list is that two actors who have won awards this…
