First Day & Introduction Of Awards Race

 


Hello folks. So another thing I would like to do on this site is track down each important movie award show of the season, and like always express my thoughts.

Here's How This Works: The movie award season is football season to me. Each year I will have a target subject that I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for the award show is released and I will say a little commentary on if the subject has a chance or not. If the subject is snubbed in that particular award show, it will be skipped. Most likely I will say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down the season all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS.



The Awards


I will be focusing on 5 award shows:

-The Golden Globes
-The BAFTAs
-The Critics Choice
-The SAG Awards


and of course

-The Oscars





As mentioned earlier, if the target is snubbed, then the show will be skipped.




The Target

The target will normally be either a movie or an actor/actress that I'm rooting for through out the season. Depending on the success of the movie, it will depend on how I think the subject will do. So it is possible that I think the subject will not be as lucky during an award season, but I'll root for it either way.




My First Subject:

Austin Butler


Now Austin's my subject this year for obvious reasons. Like many 2000s kids, I grew up watching him. But unlike 2000s kids, I didn't think much of him at the time. All I knew was that he constantly played the cute love interest in almost every Disney Channel or Nickelodeon series (iCarly being my favorite of his appearances). And while I understood the attraction towards him, I just didn't care much for him. So if anyone told me the day I watched 'ILike Jake' for the first time that this dude would become Elvis, I would've laughed in their face. But it happened. And you know what, he did good. He did REALLY good. I know he worked really hard on this and you can definitely tell in the movie. And it truly payed off. I was very impressed. And I will admit that I now have a crush on him for a reason. 

Do I see him winning the Oscar, I don't know. And I'm not trying to undermine his performance. The reason why I am so iffy about him winning is because of other competition, mainly Brendan Fraser for 'The Whale'. If the Oscars happened right around the time when 'Elvis' was released (almost 6 months ago), then it would be an easy win. And while Austin's hype and performance is still holding it's ground even today, Fraser's is pretty strong too. Austin has been doing pretty well in the awards department so far. So I'm not going to say he's gonna loose, but it's not a solid win either.

The only way to really know for sure is to see how he does in the major awards, with the first being the Golden Globes as the nominations were just released today.

Golden Globe Thoughts

So Austin did receive a drama nomination, which I pretty much expected. However, it is against Fraser. If Austin loses to Fraser, I will most likely assume that'll be the case for the Oscars, but that is not guaranteed. The same goes if it's the other way around, but we'll see what happens.




Feel free to write your thoughts down below, and I will see you in 2 days for the Critics Choice. Bye!

American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

  American Idol  has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries.

Introduction

Bio My name is Naomi Marie Elidios Chadwick. I was born in San Diego, California, but I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I pretty much have a traditional family, which involves happily married parents, 1 younger sister, and an older brother. I was raised Christian, and I continue to practice Christianity to this day. This is not a spiritual blog but some of the content that I post is influenced by my faith. Every now and then I will post Christian content as well, just not always (except with Billboard ). The picture you see up above is me at the airport with my father after I graduated from AmeriCorps NCCC after 10 months of community service. In response I received a congressional award for community service. I've always been really proud of that. I was diagnosed with Asperger's (a form of Autism) around the age of 6, but I was not informed of my diagnosis until I was 12. I'm very into movies and television (animation especially), and pop culture as a whole, and I...

First Day Of 2024/2025 Awards Race

  It is about that time of year again where Hollywood gives out its most prestigious awards to most of the time the least deserving. But that doesn't mean I'm not gonna pay attention like always. But this year we will be shaking things up a little. Allow me to explain; Here's How This Works: Each year, I will have a target subject I'm rooting for this season. When the nominations for each award show are announced, I will do a small commentary on whether or not the subject has a chance of winning. However, this year instead of focusing on just the target, I will also be focusing on those I think are frontrunners in different categories for the season as a whole, whether I'm rooting for them or not.  I will most likely say a last minute thought the day before the award show. I will be tracking down all the way up to the big dogs: THE OSCARS. The Awards: We will be focusing on 5 awards; -The Golden Globes -The BAFTA's -The Critics Choice -The SAG Awards and Of Cour...
