2019's Oscar Nominations Announcement took place on Tuesday, January 22, 2019. The 91st Oscars will air live on ABC on Sunday, February 24, 2019. GLAAD president Sarah Kate Ellis noted that more than half of the best picture nominees — including A Star Is Born, Bohemian Rhapsody, Green Book, The Favourite and Vice — involve LGBTQ themes and narratives. For GLAAD, which counts the number of LGBTQ characters in releases from the seven largest film studios in its annual Studio Responsibility Index, … [Read more...]
Golden Globes 2019 – Nominees and Winners’ List
The Golden Globes 2019 Awards' ceremony was this year at its 76th edition. Here are the nominees and winners, a simple list without comments. Unfortunately I couldn't watch all the movies in time to have an accurate opinion and I may be a little bit subjective. There were at least two movies I had the opportunity to watch and I choose not to, at least for the moment. I'll see about them with the time coming. Two years ago, I was on the verge to erase this subcategory (Awards) from my website. … [Read more...]
Oscar Winners at the 90th Academy Awards in 2018
The following list of Oscar winners and nominees at the 90th Academy Awards ceremony in 2018 is presented here in the same order it appeared on CNN's website. I have completed it where I could. They haven't respected the original order. Doesn't matter, it seems my Oscar predictions from yesterday were only partially right, but better than in other years. I enjoyed The Shape of Water enormously, but I liked Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, more. Winners are specified and written in bold … [Read more...]
My Oscar Predictions for the 2018 Awards Ceremony
I am happy for the movies and the nominees. This post is about my Oscar predictions with some comments. Tonight we will find out who are the winners this year.

I have considered the Best Picture nominations and the movies in which the Best Actor/Actress, Best Supporting Actor/Actress, Directing, Original/Adapted … [Read more...]
The Golden Globes 2018 Awards – Winners and Nominees
I used to think that the Golden Globes are less rated than the Oscars. I was wrong. I said somewhere, maybe on my Romanian blog, many years ago, that these awards are voted by intellectuals not by the trade members. The journalists who gave their vote for the Golden Globes 2018 Awards know where China, India or Bangladesh are situated on the map. I'm not so sure that 50% of the Academy members are that instructed. "Who cares?" can be their reaction, and indeed, it doesn't matter. I have great … [Read more...]
Oscars 2017 – The Most Embarrassing Show
Oscars 2017 awards ceremony was by far a very embarrassing and disputable show, even if the actual weirdness started much earlier. Yes, dear friends, it was more absurd than this year's Golden Globes, where "Hollywood legend" Meryl Streep threw some venomous spikes at their democratically elected president, misinterpreting some of Donald Trump chaotic aping gestures. She has been applauded long lasting moments (even if she pretended to have "only three seconds to say this"). Her peers repeated … [Read more...]
