In a roundabout way, the fact that I don’t have a strong attachment to The Wizard of Oz as a film (my late mother loved it, so that memory is deeply rooted in me, but the movie itself never did much for me) contributed directly to how amusing I found Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity […] More
Welcome back to my Home Movies! Today, we have one of the more discussed early year releases hitting shelves in The Drama, alongside one of the more slept on in Dead Man’s Wire. This week also features a notable new release in Fuze, as well as a high profile Criterion Collection release in The Elephant […] More
I have never previously cared about the minions. Hell, I’ve never actually seen all of a Despicable Me film, let alone a Minions movie. So, actually watching Minions & Monsters is a bit of a lark for me. My entire interest in this picture came from the concept of the little guys in old Hollywood, […] More
Well folks, it is indeed time for another one. So, let’s get to it, ladies and gentlemen! Continuing a tradition I’ve been keen on for years, I’m ranking the new crop of Academy Award winners. For nearly all of the Oscar categories, you’ll see me list the top 25 recipients of that prize. Sometimes, our […] More
The Sunday Scaries are upon us once again! Yes, as the weekend concludes, most of us feel an oncoming sense of anticipatory dread about the week ahead. Anxiety about work manifests itself into a feeling that’s known as the Sunday Scaries. However, we at Awards Radar are here to combat that, by taking back the […] More
Friends and faithful readers, today is the Fourth of July, as well as America’s 250th birthday. In more normal times, which seem like a lifetime ago, I’d simply be wishing you all a happy holiday from everyone at Awards Radar. Now, or at least for the past few years, I obviously still hope everybody has […] More
Folks, it’s July! We’ve officially entered the second half of the year, which is the half where the Oscar-centric films tend to reside. Not entirely, of course, as you’ll see below, but largely. So, as we’re at this point, it felt like the right time to not just update my Academy Award predictions, but to […] More
Welcome back to the Awards Radar Podcast. In each episode, Editor Joey Magidson (that’s me!) will be joined by some of the staff of Awards Radar to talk about the latest in film, television, and entertainment in general. The show will obviously have an awards season slant to it, but we won’t forget about other […] More
The birth of America, at least to me, is riveting, especially in the underdog nature of how the nation began. Do we live up to the ideals set forth by our founding fathers? No, not always (and I’m only talking about their idealistic goals for the country, not their many personal faults), but it’s a […] More
Folks, I’d like to welcome you all to July and the second half of the year! Time flies, doesn’t it? Somehow, we’re halfway through 2026 already. The past few days have been pretty tough for me, as many of you know that I lost my longtime canine companion last week. Those of you who have […] More
There are few filmmakers who I find more underrated than Rod Lurie. Now, do I happen to love that he went from being a film critic to a filmmaker? Sure. However, even before I knew about that, I knew his work, and his movies are consistently entertaining, well made, and thought provoking. We’ve spoken here […] More
Welcome back to my Home Movies! This week, we have the super fun and super violent They Will Kill You hoping to hook audiences in a way it couldn’t quite do during its theatrical run. Today also features the new incarnation of Kiss of the Spider Woman coming out, as well as a pair of […] More
