First Day Of 2023/2024 Awards Race

 



My football season has officially begun. Awards and nominations are being given out to some of the biggest movies of the year (whether some deserve it or not), and I'm wasting no time keeping track on the big ones. For those who didn't read last year's, around this time of year I like to track down the important movie awards and speak on my thoughts.

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. If the subject is snubbed in that particular award show, it will be skipped. 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


While last year there was 5 award shows, this year I will only be doing 4:


-The Golden Globes

-The Critics Choice

-The BAFTAs



and of course

-The Oscars


 


Again, the award will be skipped if the target is snubbed.





The Target

The targets will be a movie or an actor/actress that I'm rooting for this season. The subject doing well some-what depends on the success of the movie. So it is possible for me to think the subject will do poorly, but I will root for it either way.




This Year's Subject:


Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse

I have been raving about this movie all year, and clearly I am not finished. You have no idea how much I LOVE this movie and how BADLY I want it to win the Oscar. I know the first one has an Oscar, and it DESERVED it's win. But this one deserves a win too and I really hope Spider-Verse gets another win. And don't get me wrong, It has an EXTREMELY high chance of winning. But I won't deny it has some big competition, mainly The Boy & The Heron. I'm keeping an eye on that movie.




Dates:



Golden Globes:

Nominations- Today      Event- January 7, 2024


Critics Choice:

Nominations- Wednesday     Event- January 14, 2024


BAFTAs:

Nominations- January 18, 2024     Event- February 18, 2024


The Oscars:

Nominations- January 23, 2024     Event- March 10, 2024 



I will not be doing the SAG awards this year as they do not have an animation category (that and I'm salty towards them for the stupid strike that delayed Beyond The Spider-Verse😒).




Golden Globe Results & Thoughts

ATSV received way more nominations than I expected, as It ultimately received 3 nominations (including Animated Feature Film). I'm pleasantly surprised and extremely happy to see that, but I am also worried as it is competing against The Boy & The Heron in 2 of those categories. I guess we'll see what happens.

So.......The Bride😕

So I was completely off-track with The Bride . Did not expect the film to crash and burn as hard as it did with both critics AND the box-office. After getting murdered, a woman by the name of Ida is brought back to life with the intention of being a companion to the oh-so iconic Frankenstein. And together they wreck havoc. Like Wuthering Heights , the movie wasn't terrible but it had a lot of problems. The biggest issue with this film is that it tries way too hard to be edgy and it just doesn't work. It wanted to be this hardcore feminist take on Frankenstein , but it just felt convoluted and slightly underwritten. It had this plotline involving Ida causing some revolution for women and did pretty much nothing with it until the last minute. It was kind of a let down. The best thing about the movie however was the performances and chemistry between Buckley and Christian Bale. I thought they were strangely endearing, and this might be a better love story than Wuthering Heights  (...

Last Minute Music Reviews

  So here are some last minute reviews of songs that I've heard over the past few months that did not reach #1;   Where Is My Husband - Raye This is incredibly fun and strangely catchy. While this is not officially a jazz song, this obviously has jazz influence and it works very well for this song. I will go ahead and admit that this is my introduction to Raya, I have not listened to Oscar Winning Tears . So far, I'm intrigued.    Midnight Sun - Zara Larsson This song is kind of AWESOME. Not only is the production GORGEOUS, but it also has a very nice hook that goes smoothly with Larsson's voice. My sister actually recommended this song to me and I see why. Larsson does currently have a Grammy nomination for this. She's gonna lose, but I'm glad this song got recognized. If my sister see's this, thank you.   How It's Done - Huntrix (From KPop Demon Hunters ) I have been meaning to review this for a while, but I kept getting lazy. Like Golden , this song has g...
