    Film Awards Talk - 2019

    Boy, how about those Golden Globes?

    First time I've ever just given up and done something else. I stopped at thirty minutes because the jokes were so awful. Seeing the winners come in was pretty amusing because of how offended and bratty #FilmTwitter can get. Enough so that they berated 15-year old Elsie Fisher for enjoying Bohemian Rhapsody.

    Thank goodness for Match Cut where civilized film conversation can be had.

    I haven't seen it, but apparently Bohemian Rhapsody is the Donald J Trump of 2018 movies.

    I forgot it was happening. Then saw the headline about Bohemian Rhapsody. Then started to watch the opening with Andy and Sandra out of curiosity. Then stopped mid-way through because it was too painful. Then decided to just shake my head and go on with my life.

    I hope the Academy Awards are better because the Golden Globes felt like flashbacks from the late 80s / early 90s when aggressively middlebrow stuff like Driving Miss Daisy and Scent of a Woman were cleaning up during awards season.

    It's the Golden Globes, so it doesn't matter, but a part of me is happy that Spider-Verse took the prize over Pixar.

    But again, don't matter.

    Is this where we can also post nominees and winners from other critics guilds? I'm about to vote in the first awards ceremony of my guild's existence and couldn't be more excited to be a part of it.

    Also, I skipped the Golden Globes in favor of an Impact Wrestling live event. When I got back and watched the show on my DVR, I learned I had made the right choice.

    Live wrestling is always gonna be better than most other entertainments. Especially if you're allowed to throw shit at the wrestlers.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    While I know those exist and have been to a few myself, this event was a live event on pay-per-view so thankfully that was off-limits.

    And thanks, guys! I'll post our full nominees list once we announce the winners in the next couple days.

    DGA

    Feature Film Award:

    BRADLEY COOPER
    “A Star Is Born”
    (Warner Bros. Pictures)

    ALFONSO CUARÓN
    “Roma”
    (Netflix)

    PETER FARRELLY
    “Green Book”
    (Universal Pictures)

    SPIKE LEE
    “BlacKkKlansman”
    (Focus Features)

    ADAM MCKAY
    “Vice”
    (Annapurna Pictures)


    First-Time Feature Film Director:

    BO BURNHAM
    “Eighth Grade”
    (A24)

    BRADLEY COOPER
    “A Star Is Born”
    (Warner Bros. Pictures)

    CARLOS LOPEZ ESTRADA
    “Blindspotting”
    (Summit Entertainment)

    MATTHEW HEINEMAN
    “A Private War”
    (Aviron Pictures)

    BOOTS RILEY
    “Sorry to Bother You”
    (Annapurna Pictures)


    EDIT:
    Just as with last year with Peele being nominated in both categories, it seems pretty obvious that Cooper will take first-timer prize here, which makes it easy for Cuarón to complete his awards season infinity gauntlet of Best Director wins this year.

    Nicest to see Sorry to Bother You and Blindspotting get some actual high profile recognition in the season, since they've come and gone from Best Screenplay conversations (where Burnham now has the best shot of the summer indies in that Oscar category). Surprising that A Private War's director got in over Ari Aster or Paul Dano.

    Keep in mind the Oscar's five best directors choices rarely line up exactly with the DGA's (last year PTA bumped McDonagh) so I can easily see Lanthimos taking over for McKay, or even Jenkins subbing in for him or Farrelly. Alfonso, Spike and Bradley are obviously the locks, though.

    The Stanley Cup is unique and has a history and hockey nerds will leap at the chance to tell you about it.

    The others are just cast metal copies of themselves.

    I wonder how often Oscar is used as a sex toy by the winners. Call me a pervert, but c'mon, it's Hollywood we're talking about.
