Saturday Night Live is one of the most hilarious shows ever to be aired. The concept and the wit of the sketches are not to be seen anywhere. It is humor in its purest sense. Everything is done because of the talented creators and actors. I have compiled such a list on imdb, called "The Best SNL People", consisting of fifty four actors and actresses with a permanent role in the show, not just hosts or invited guests. I have read a lot of reviews about this marvelous show. I don't … [Read more...]
Who Hates Anne Hathaway?
Not quite a Flash! category post, the annoying subject of hating Anne Hathaway finally got on my nerves. This is not a post about her acting talents, or her talents on the whole, such one will be more appropriate on Actors & Actresses, this is my reaction, so I publish it here, and to change the view on the home page as well. On my Google News page, I have a dedicated entertainment section, where unfortunately, half of the news are about Anne Hathaway and her "hateability". [source] … [Read more...]
Nominees for the 85th Academy Awards
This is the list from the prestigious site of The Academy of Motion Pictures, Arts and Sciences, the official one, which is less glamorous as is all business. The nominees have still a lot of work to pimp themselves between them, because often, the Oscars were full of surprises. I present here the complete version, out of respect for all people involved. They deserve our consideration for their tireless efforts to fulfill everybody's expectations. Actor in a Leading Role Bradley … [Read more...]
SAG Awards Winners
All the following pics are from The Guardian! The comments are mine, now when I've seen a lot of the nominated movies. I haven't seen Argo, yet, but I'll review it separately, if it will be that astonishing. Anyway, it seems that the cast of Argo was awarded. The critics say it's a strong sign for Oscars, which might be true for some of the awards, precisely four, The Best Actors and The Best Supporting Actors, both genders, since they are voting again, plus "actress" Beyonce, the Presidential … [Read more...]
And the Winner is…
The list announcements unfortunately starts with the best and most expected prize ending with the "less important". The last on this list, Maggie Smith, is not the less important. We appreciate her in "Downton Abbey", and we appraised her in The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. The results are taken from imdb.com and I know I'm not the only one borrowing them. I would comment on the votes, when I shall have more data in my possession. As you'll see, my hopes on The Best Film in a Foreign Language … [Read more...]
Romantic Drama
Yesterday, after seeing a very bad romance (a pity for Anne Hathaway, very talented and very good even in this soap), I remembered My Sassy Girl with Elisha Cuthbert and Jesse Bradford, a romantic drama which went deeper than expected. Usually these are not my kind of films, but a good movie, a real good one, touches me. Of course sometimes it depends on my moods, and I think that is happening with all of you. Our moods define our tastes, if they aren't major ones. On such a trivial subject as … [Read more...]
