Recently (here), I took a look at what the above the line Academy Award categories would look like with only first time nominees. That never happens, of course, but imagine that? Well, today, you can imagine something entirely different. What if the Oscar lineup was made up entirely of folks who had been previously nominated? […] More
One of the more heart-warming aspects of awards season is when you see some be nominated for their first Oscar. In particular, when a veteran of the industry is rewarded by the Academy, it’s easy to celebrate. This fairly joyful aspect of the race got me thinking, namely about just who could be in position […] More
Can lightning strike twice? Back in 2018, Black Panther exceeded all expectations, not just at the box office, but with the Oscars as well. The film would ultimately be cited seven times at the 91st Academy Awards, winning three statues in the process. So, when thinking about its sequel, it’s impossible not to look back at […] More
At midnight, Taylor Swift released her latest album, Midnights, and I finalized my latest Oscar predictions update. Now, one is more widely acclaimed than the other (and rightly so, the album is excellent), but it’s a delineation of the season that I wanted to point out. As of last week, when I saw an until […] More
Time sure flies, does it not? We’ve reached the last day of September, meaning a full nine months of the year have passed. Somehow, we’re almost done with 2022. Wow. Not only are the seasons changing, but Oscar predictions are starting to become a thing for more than just the diehards like yours truly. So, […] More
What a difference a week can make. After seven days spent at the Toronto International Film Festival, the layout of the awards season does appear to be a bit different. That said, it’s possible I’m just exhausted, having spent several days at the Telluride Film Festival, before heading up to Canada for TIFF. My time […] More
Folks, ’tis the season. No sooner did I return from the Telluride Film Festival than it was time to turn around and head north to the Toronto International Film Festival. After having taken in seven of the movies that played at Telluride, including some major potential Academy Award players, I’m now on the ground in […] More
Greetings from Telluride and welcome to September! Yes, I’m here at the Telluride Film Festival for the next few days, before heading home briefly and departing again for the Toronto International Film Festival. Pray for Mojo (fans of The Simpsons get it). This is such an exciting and important time of the season, not just […] More
We are winding down the last hours of Emmys voting, the time when a large number of the ballots are still being filled out. Nothing is set in stone quite just yet. It looks like voters took notes from our Awards Radar FYC pieces (drama, comedy, limited) where we spotlighted performances and series that may […] More
It’s hard to believe that July is almost over, right? Time flies when you’re having fun (am I having fun?), but it also means that coming in hot and heavy are the fall film festival announcements. In the past few days we found out what will be playing at the Toronto International Film Festival and […] More
Earlier this week, the Emmy nominations went down, in all of their glory. You can see them here, and even thought the movie beat is far more my thing, I don’t ignore television entirely. To that end, something that happened with the Emmys, which has happened more than once in the past, caught my attention. […] More
Some years, when we reach the end of the first half of the year, there are some films that are well poised to survive through the summer, into the fall and winter. This year, it’s not quite like that. As you’ll see below, there are movies that seem like they could sustain, but nothing feels […] More
